When; Sunday the 17th, afternoon
Rating; PG-13 for possible language, violence(!?) & moody magical girls
Characters; MKR crew plus guests
Summary; When Road's and Umi's long-awaited tea party finally occurs, the former doesn't truly expect that long guest list to be much of a problem. Why should she?
Log;

The house smelled of roses and homemade bakery. In, fact, the apartment had never felt as much like home as it did on that very moment. Umi looked around and felt completely satisfied with the arrangements. At least she'd managed to get the place to feel cozy in time to play host.

Right, so there'd been a couple of obstacles to overcome, like that annoying sleep curse. Umi made a face as she set down a plate of freshly baked scones on one of the decorated tables. The damn thing had had her off snoring all Thursday long. She'd needed to run to catch up once she'd recovered the spirit to crawl out of bed. It'd been a small miracle that the invitations had been written and delivered (a miracle made possible by Ken's and Rin's assistance) and the last minute shopping done.

Fortunately everything was in place and awaiting their friends' arrival. The tables were beautifully arranged with all sorts of homemade pastries. Several varieties of tea were available for the guests to choose from. C's and Kimihiro's help at the kitchen had been invaluable, and Road had done quite a great job at making the place look more festive. There would even be sake as a stronger choice of a drink for those Umi knew would appreciate it, thanks to Misao's own contribution.

The water Knight sighed with accomplishment. Finally a small celebration to make up for all the messes The City had put them through during the last weeks, including her fateful trip Underground. She smiled as she smoothed the skirts of her dress. Nothing could go wrong from here.


[ooc: I'm off to bed for tonight, guys. @_@ Please feel free to assume Umi wandered off and will be around bringing tea and cake to the guests. Take this wherever you want~ ♥]

With a mama in each hand, Vivio bravely approached the apartment door. She'd never been to a tea party before, and never really had the opportunity to get to know any of the Knights well, and her nervousness showed on her face, despite her attempts to hide it. After all, she was strong enough to not let a little nervousness stop her, right?

She looked to both of them, then let go of their hands and softly knocked on the door.

Nanoha knelt down beside Vivio and put a hand on her shoulder after she had knocked.

"Put on a smile, Vivio. You're a big girl so meeting new people is supposed to be fun."

She turned to face her, still looking quite nervous.

"You're not scared?"

"Of course not. These are nice girls that just want to have fun. There's nothing to be afraid of."

Megumi looked a little lost in thought as she looked ahead, a hand to the side of Vivio's back as she kept a small gift basket in hand. It was their first time visiting Umi and the Knights-- hers, at least, so she brought the gift out of courtesy.

Looking over at the two, she couldn't help but smile a bit.

"And if there is anything to be afraid of, your mamas are here to chase it all away. Right, Nanoha?" She chuckled, hoping to reassure her.

She thought it over a little, then finally her expression changed to a much happier one.

"Mm, you're right!" And even though she was still a bit nervous, she knew there was nothing she couldn't do with those two at her side.
