Snarky Automaton voice: please wait 32 minutes and then try again.

Oops. Put it backwards!!

[Iliara_Mustardtop]

Ooc: yes, this topic is just what we need!!!
Scarlet Man: Well, have you tracked down any more clues about the Aetherlight?
Iliara: well, no, but we have some theories...
Scarlet Man: You'll find out in good time. For now, I'm glad to see you've been researching it. It's good to be diligent.
Turns to Ilayne: Do you know where I could get some good tea around here?

[Ilayne_Merespark]

Wakes up from faint

OH MY GOONESS IT'S THE SCARLET MAN!! Did I just say that outloud? looks at Scarlet Man who is looking at me, amused Oh yeah, I definitely know where some good tea is! Follow me!

[Ilayne_Merespark]

We walk through alleyway, my heart is throbbing

(keeps repeating)
IT'S ACTUALLY THE SCARLET MAN! THE SCARLET MAN IS FOLLOWING ME! IT'S REALLY HIM, OH MY GOODNESS!!

I can't believe I'm doing this because I don't even know where actual good tea is!! Haha!!

thinks about it seriously

ON NO WHAT AM I GOING TO DO???

[Iliara_Mustardtop]

Hears Ilayne muttering to herself...
"Ilayne what's wrong?"
"I--well, i sort of forgot I don't know where to find good tea. I don't know what I was thinking! I guess I was not thinking straight. Still not thinking straight!"
Me: "well we could go to Lukas', I guess!"

[Scarlett_Darkhall]

Surprises Ilayne and Iliara as they whisper together
Me (A little too loud): "Yeah, that's a great idea!
The Scarlet Man looks around suspiciously. The two girls look at Scarlett in annoyance.
Me: Whoops...Smiles sheepishly at the Scarlet Man

[Ilayne_Merespark]

Iliara hurries away, and Ilayne's left alone with her annoying twin and the unsuspecting Scarlet Man!!

coughs "Don't mind her Scarlet Man, she's just really annoying!" fake laughs

Why am I leading the Scarlet Man to TEA? I hate tea! Oh whatever.

"Uh, actually, I forgot where the place is... Scarlett, would you mind?" gives her the look, YOUR BEING PAYED SISTARRR

[Scarlett_Darkhall]

Scarlett receives Ilayne's glance, and she gives her an evil look in return, assuming, "I am SOO getting you later!!" She looks at the Scarlet Man.

Scarlett (trying to stall some time): "Hey, did you know what a coincidence it is that my name is actually your name, but with an extra T?!" Gives a big cheesy smile. Ilayne slaps her forehead with her hand.

[Ilayne_Merespark]

Gives the evil eye at Scarlett, then suddenly gets an idea

Ilayne: Wait! I actually do remember where it is! Wait here! zooms off. The Scarlet Man gives Scarlett a questionable look, and Scarlett chuckles nervously
Zooms back

Ilayne: TA DAAAAA!! Here's your tea Scarlet Man sir!

Hands him paper cup filled with cold water and crushed leaves

Ilayne: Can't you just smell the sweet aroma?? MMMMMM.... (chuckles nervously)Well, hope you enjoy your tea, gotta run!...

[Ilayne_Merespark]

The Scarlet Man stares down at the tea.

I have taught you how to fight Automations, but I think I must give you a lesson in tea as well...

[Scarlett_Darkhall]

Scarlett laughs nervously.
Scarlett: Well, I dont' think you'll be needing to do that sir... ha ha, ha haaa.... See ya!"
Scarlett and Ilayne run off into the shadows. The Scarlet Man looks after them, shaking his head. He looks down at his "tea" once more.

"Oh dear. This will be a long lesson for them..."

[Silverclaw_Bonnetfolly1]

Walks up next to The Scarlet Man and looks down in his cup.
Silverclaw: Is that supposed to be tea? Who made that? I'm sure Lukas has some tea, I'll take you there.
Walks off towards Lukas' base

[Awesome_Lensfun1]

in no mans landing near the ship to the isle.

I stand there, scouting the area. My daily schedule. I see the lives of others on their daily schedule. Some don't have daily schedules, some are part of the resistance, some are Lucky's slaves. I notice scarlet man. The red cape hides the contents of what he has. He always has something. Then he notices me. I look at what he has, rather than stare back at him. An Aether boiler, a fire cane, some pistols. His daily items, along with the must have scarlet nails. He looks away. Praobably without surprise.

[Aislinn_Mollisong1]

This is weird but strangely amusing.

[Ilayne_Merespark]

Walks into a section of No Man's Landing. Looking at shops. Sees shop called "Extraordinary Tea."

Oh. That's where the tea was.

[Vytanni_Throttlenight]

OOC: I'M DYING OF LAUGHTER RIGHT NOW!!! THESE ARE SO FUNNY!!!!

(Walks into lab/home. Sets Resistance cap down on table. Sighs)
Now I can concentrate on... what is...?
(Approaches writing desk, finds a new kettle and a note)

Vytanni....

Your friends Ilayne and Scarlett are sadly lacking on their tea skills. Please teach them how to serve a proper cuppa, instead of wet leaves in a mug... Use this kettle.

S.M.

(Face-palms)

[Ilayne_Merespark]

Walks into "Extraordinary Tea" and goes up to desk.

Hey! Excuse me, do you happen to have some good tea here?

Yes. It's over by the section 5.

Awesome, thank you!

You wanna hear the daily surprise? We are having free tea-making lessons. Would you like to sign up?

Jaw dropps, face whitens

NOPE NOPE NOPE

runs out of store

NOPE NOPE NOPE

[Scarlett_Darkhall]

OOC: I know right, Vytanni?! Last night me and Ilayne were going delirious!

Meets Ilayne out of store
Scarlett: Ilayne, what were you doing in there?!
Hears thump on rooftop.
Scarlett: RUN FOR IT!!

[Vytanni_Throttlenight]

OOC:

(walks into commons... Nearly gets ran over by Ilayne)
Ahk! Приборы и прокладки Miss. Merespark! Please watch your step when running so fast!
(Helps the girl back to her feet)
Do you know where you sister is? The Scarlet Man asked me to give you both Tea-Making lessons.

Приборы и прокладки=(Roughly translated Russian) Gears and Gaskets!
