Log;

He was hoping that this time having tea with a guest he had invited would go better. Rin Asano sounded like a lively and intelligent girl. William was looking forward to talking with her. 

But somewhere at the back of William's mind, there was also the hope that for a few hours at least he could forget about Cardinal dei Medici arriving in the City and just how much work it would be to keep the foolish man quiet.

William sighed and looked at his pocket watch, it was almost 3 pm, time to get the tea ready.

William opened the door and smiled, "Hello Rin, come in."

He showed her to the sitting room, where a small table was ready with the tea set and a nice looking chocolate cake was neatly sliced. A noise from the pool table made them both look up.

"You bloody hat, stop doing that!"

The pool table was talking and it sounded very angry, with what looked to be William's top hat.

"A-ah...yes, they've been talking for the last few hours." William said a little sheepishly.

Rin followed the Professor quietly to the sitting room, where she admired the beautiful, foreign-looking tea set and wondered just what that on the plate next to the cup might be, as she had yet to taste both cake and chocolate.

When a third person's voice could be heard, she started slightly and looked up, about to apologize in case she had interrupted another visit - but there was no one.

"Who's been talking?", she blurted out, rather confused.

William frowned and pointed at the pool table, where now the hat was also talking.

"I'm not doing anything, your being stupid again." The black top hat snapped.

"You were looking at the papers, I could tell." The pool table snapped back.

William rubbed his forhead, "It's a curse day, most of the inanimate objects in my flat have come alive."

Rin stared. And stared. And blinked.

"Ah... yes. I have heard of the curse days." No, she wasn't going to be surprised anymore. Not much, anyway. Never mind she had never seen a top hat OR a pool table in her life to begin with.

So she thought she'd ask. "What are those, anyway? The table looks strange."
