13th Inversion - Video

[The Vine shows Akiha in her sitting room, a steaming cup of tea before her.]

As our gracious host has been so kind as to give us all more sugar than any of us need and a distinctive lack of most other forms of real sustenance, I would like to take the time to provide everyone with a proper gourmet meal.

As I understand, in America, tomorrow would mark a holiday to give thanks with an extravagant feast. So, for dinner tomorrow, I am inviting all of you to the Tohno Mansion for such a meal. As I am not American, I cannot claim it will be a Thanksgiving feast as per preset standards, but I assure you, it will be an excellent meal with plenty of meat and other culinary dishes we've been unable to have at our leisure as of late.

Dinner will be served at five o'clock sharp. I ask that, as I'm inviting all of you - even those of you I do not get along with - that you be on your best behavior. If you wish to partake in alcohol, I suggest you bring it along with you that I am not keen on sharing.

Please, accept my generosity and join me for the evening.

[Akiha bows her head slightly before picking up her tea to sip.]

[ooc: If there is enough interest, I can put an open log up for this otherwise handwave it.]

Asking for help in general doesn't need direct contact with a specific need, Subaru. If someone is in need and doesn't ask those who seem to be better off for help, then how are we supposed to know they need it?

[Privileged rich girl here.]

[ She isn't really arguing the point, but she's trying to put it forward that things aren't that clear-cut. Not everyone who's ever been in trouble asked for it, or knew they could, or who to turn to. ]

I'm trying not to worry too much. I know the vine makes it more convenient to speak out, so I just hope everyone uses it when they need to.

[ritsu_kouyou]

One can hope.

Now, Fiona is going to help dust in the morning. I'd appreciate it if you kept an eye on her. If she breaks something, I'm liable to go red on her.

[ Subaru gets the point. ] It's been a while since I hung out with her, so I'll be there to help out!

[ritsu_kouyou]

Thank you. [Akiha didn't like Fiona much - the girl irritated her - but she had offered to help. She just didn't trust her temper if the girl broke something.]

[of_the_highest_caliber]

[ She smiles. ] I'm glad to help. Anything else I should do to prepare?

[ritsu_kouyou]

Can you help me polish the silverware?

[of_the_highest_caliber]

Sure thing!
