[Action] Maribelle's Tea Shop Grand Opening (Backdated to the 30th)
Who: Maribelle, her staff, her guests, and YOU!
Where: Genessia City, The Tea Time Cafe
When: 7:AM July 30th to 9PM July 30th
What: It's a bit of a party, people are encouraged to chat up the other people at their tables, and Maribelle's staff members are encouraged to go everywhere!
Warnings: Tea, flowers, frills, pomposity, violin, and maid uniforms.
Maribelle had gone all out with preparing everything for the grand opening and when one opens the door to the shop they will be greeted by the aroma of tea, fine pastries, and the flowers that decorate every table and every wall. Over in the corner of the shop, Maribelle herself is busily playing many classical pieces such as canon in d on her violin, and women in maid uniforms seem to be bustling about, taking orders, seating guests, and delivering tea. Once in a while Maribelle stops her playing to accept requests, questions, and sees to it that everything stays in order.
If a guest were to perhaps be directed to a table, they would find themselves seated in close proximity to Maribelle's violin playing. After one last stirring violin solo, Maribelle takes a moment to take a seat... and wouldn't you know, it's at this very table! "Good day to you, I trust that everything is to your satisfaction so far? If not, please feel free to inform our staff and we'll try our best to accommodate you. My name is Maribelle, and I own this tea shop."
For Maribelle's personal guests
Each guest Maribelle personally invited would have received an invitation before the day of the big event, with her glossy cursive penmanship giving the time for their scheduled appointment. With so many people she'd hoped to invite to the grand opening, it was difficult for her to simply greet all of them when they showed up and make sure everything was running smoothly. You'll find your tables in the comments below.
(ooc: I'm sorry this took me so long to get around to :\ RL stuff kept popping up until the weekend was over and I was days late. Anyways, feel free to backtag into eternity with me. I know I still have old tags owed to people but I really wanted to throw this thing together. Don't feel like you HAVE to reply if you're invited, but I shall now list the guests. Smoker, Kuzan, Adela, Tashigi, Coby, Chrom, Robin, Ike, Micaiah, Lucy, Levy, Weiss, Athena, Chopper, and Yukiko. Pretty much if you've talked with her, feel free to enjoy some complimentary tea...Except Freeza, no tea for tyrants. Maka, Lenalee, and Orihime can also feel free to tag anything and anywhere they like as staff members.)

"Would you believe I came here straight from the Dream Docks? I almost failed to remember Ms. Maribelle's plans," she answered. "I came here mostly because I felt like she expected me, and I learned this place was open through word of mouth (or phone device). I'm sure the formal invite has been given to me somehow." It also didn't help that she had yet to get a full, formal address.
Regardless, she sat down next to him, and decided to wait a bit longer to see how things went.

"What did you see while you were there?"
If he knew, it would probably make things easier.

"It was no easy thing. I learned that Pelleas had been tricked by Beginon into signing a blood pact!" She cried. "After that, we had little choice but to aid them, though we searched for a way to end the dirty deed. We could only stall for time, even with dangerous acts.
"However, it seemed that the war had more dangerous purpose... it roused the Goddesses of Chaos and Order. And Ashnera... she had turned everyone outside of our armies into stone! It was awful! But with the majority of those in stone, our army could finally be truthful about what ailed us, at least. When I woke here, that battle hadn't yet finished... but Yune told me we'd be ready," Micaiah finished. "I feel more confident we'll prevail."
no subject
"It was rough. The period of time during which the rest of the world remained trapped in stone was one of the worst ordeals I've ever faced. But I persevered, and we pulled through. I believe you'll find the same thing in due time."
He finished off what he said with a reassuring smile. "You can trust me on that."
no subject
Of course, there was still Maribelle's assessment, and now she was realizing just how she came to be viewed. "I still don't regret defending Daein, but at least now I have a better understanding of what we've gone though."
But at least she's much more at ease now than she was when she first got here.
no subject
"And they'll pay for their crimes. By the time the war is over, they won't be able to threaten anyone with anything."
no subject
But Micaiah herself has grown a bit. "But while I'm here, I need to be able to make a living here as well. There is the issue with the Hands of Decay. Has there been any progress on them?"
no subject
"Nothing as far as I know. Of course, I'm not privy to all of the details, but speaking as a common bounty hunter, there hasn't been anything.
"On the bright side, the Hands of Decay haven't acted, either. Things in Fayren have been mostly silent."
no subject
She looked around. "I wish I came a little better dressed than I have." She hoped Maribelle wouldn't chew her out for this, given that she wasn't sure if she was looking forward to talking about her history again or not.
