Birthday Tea Party

Braden Indianensis · Post by **Braden Indianensis** » Thu Jun 01, 2006 10:27 am

Late afternoon in the city of Neronea. The Count has just arrived home from his duties in Shirekeep. There is no airport in Neronea, save for a small, weed-infested airfield a few miles outside of town, and it hadn't been working lately. So, he had travelled from Aquilaria International Airport, by car to Kaikias.
Upon his arrival at his villa, the Count was greeted with modest enthusiasm from his staff. The butler was reminded that a tea party was to be held in a few minutes. The upstairs maid cleaned up the parlor. The Count wiated for his guests to arrive.*

Oh, may I be permitted to attend the tea party and wish Eriana a Happy Belated Birthday (and one to you, as well, Baldwin)?

Of course, Baroness. Bring a...covered dish.

Of course, Baldwin. What fun!! A potluck tea party. I shall go home and prepare something special. I shall return soon.

Ehh, it's just Neronea Harbor. We'll get over it. The fish have been lazy,anyway. They could use the caffiene.

I brought a plate full of FIRE!

*burns a curtain*

*Baroness Carol walks back in, carrying a large, steaming, covered platter, from which spicy, aromatic flavors waft.*

Where shall I put the spicy chicken? And can someone please help me with the other platter? I decided to make some Shirebars to share with all of you. This is their first trial. I hope everyone likes them.

Oh, Greg, the fire extinguisher is there on the wall.

Oh, you see, it's a Kaikian tea party tradition to set the house of the host on fire, and then remain in while it's burning. Don't worry, I assure you, it's quite safe. You can put the chicken over on the buffet, if you don't mind. *Goes to fetch other platter.*

*sits down and flicks a lighter between his knuckles as it burns*

I love this place....

Your birthday's the 2nd?

Braden Indianensis · Post by **Braden Indianensis** » Fri Jun 02, 2006 7:29 am

No, mine was May 15, actually. Nobody noticed, so I decided to throw one for Eriana and myself.

*Enters carrying a tray of oddberry flavored Tarty-tarts, folloed closely by Alyss the Jaberwocky.*

I noticed by the thirty foot flames i was a bit late, and i hope you dont mind but Alyss here missed the last few so she was insistant in coming along.

*sets the tray down farther down than the chicken and Alyss moves over to talk to Gman*

Baldwin, I have a present for you and when you see Eriana let her know Ive got one for her too.

*pulls off his h47 and reaches inside. Digs around with concentration clearly on hid face*

OW! back back, DOWN! *punches into the H47. Although Its only about 2-3 feet high Im clearly leaning in.*

AHA! *hands an Ornate silver handheld looking glass to Baldwin* Ive been meaning to give you this ever since you joined my Barony but i never managed it. Its very cool. You look into it say "LapawdroA" and my looking glass will trigger. Instantly I'll know your trying to contact me. it works EVERYWHERE, and should I contact you via lookinglass you will also know instantly.

So, yeah, UpYur Birthday!

*moves over to try some of Baroness Carol's Chicken as flames lick my H47*

*Finaly arives at party with a bright red sunburn (wich I actualy have)*

Ahh I see I'm just in time and alreddy fationably burned.

Hmmmm... We do need MUSIC!!!

*music starts to play out of no where*

There's a small band-platform in the ballroom, which I usually reserve for an occasional string quartet...

Thank you, Baldwin! This was a lovely tea party. I don't know when I've enjoyed myself more. I'm always interested to learn about new customs and to meet new people. We'll have to do this again soon. Bye.
