Expected doesn't mean Prepared [Closed]
Who: Takumi and Nephenee
When: Oct 26
Where: Nephenee's Temple
What: Takumi calls Nephenee in distress, and comes over to talk about a surprise new Shinki
[He walks with his head down and steps fast all the way to Neph's temple, feeling his belly roll with nerves. He wasn't nervous about HER exactly- more about how she would see him, all worked up about something he knew could happen one day. About someone that wasn't actually even the brother he knows.
...still, he's too weak to just bite it down and not bother her. Which is how he ends up on her doorstep]

[He's apologizing even more than usual...it's worrying, to be honest.]
Part o'my job as your sweetie is takin' care o'ya, ya know?
[Carefully, Nephenee switches her position to where she's got an arm around him as she leads him in, towards the kitchen area. The scent of sweet baked goods becomes stronger as they get closer, and as they step into the kitchen proper, there's a steaming pot of water triveted on the table, right next to some cups and a tray of shortbread.]
How's Sakura takin' it?

[It's said with sadness, but she still gently herds him over to the table.]
What sorta tea ya want, hun?

[Something that will clear the grief in his head]

[Before she grabs the tea, though, she holds out the chair for him, then once he's seated, she gets to work.
Both in her time here and back in Tellius, Nephenee has learned a lot of tea information - while here she has much more variety and a several new types to partake in, herbals like those from home are still some of her favorite. Many times she still makes her own blends for certain purposes, and this time is no exception. Grabbing a small tin from the counter that contains one of the blends she'd made up for him (there might have been several tins), she quickly measures it out, putting it in the teapot, before pouring the steaming water over it from the kettle.]
Ah made this for ya...it's strong, but it shouldn't knock ya out or nothin'...not sure ya want to be nappin', after all. If ya do, though, got another that would help with that.
[The leaves and flowers and fruit blossom to life in the water, which is quickly covered by the top. It doesn't do much to cover the smell that's coming now, though. Lavender, spearmint...some other scents that aren't quite there yet. While it steeps, she cuts the shortbread and places a rectangle on a plate and places it before him.]
