Welcome to Tiānshǐ shíwù, the biggest, and most experienced Oriental restaurant in all of Magic Earth. Tiānshǐ shíwù is a grand tower with red walls and repeated green tiled roofs circling each story. Corners of the great tower are decorated with giant flaming, glass orbs. The flame kept inside of coarse. Inside the atmosphere is buzzing, the smell of great food passing through. The bottom floor is merely a waiting area, its a great, large round room with a bar at one end, sofas at the other. Red carpets adorn the floors, emerald green walls accompanying the red pillars decorated with dragon patterns. And all the way upwards, passed even the 20th floor is stories, and stories of restaurant space, including a kitchen on each 4th floor up. The place is kept tidy, fresh with plants and lilies, it's decorated like traditional China and is never, ever going to disappoint.

Whether we like it or not






The fae had a chime to her laughter, Fauna recognised it and then re-established her understanding of Quin, of course, that's why she had teal hair, for she must be a Fae. Something she'll bring up later. As Quin also agreed and dismissed men, the two laughed it off. "i get the feeling we'll get along just fine, Quin" she said, turning around and crossing her arms as she looked up upon the towering colossus - Tiānshǐ shíwù. It was too tall to count all the many floors it must have, not to mention how many kitchens, how many employees and how many customers, but it seemed to flow nicely. The bottom floor was the waiting area with a bar and some entertainment. The great doorway was a giant golden arch with dragon decoration circling around its columns. As they walked up to the steps leading the to arch way, big enough for two doubledecker buses, an employee stood in oriental clothing of red and green and said "Kangei, Huānyíng, Welcome".

Fauna bowed in respect to him slightly before following his gesture into the bottom floor. It was beautiful. "the two of us please" she said at the small waiting desk. "So, what's you're first thoughts?" she asked the Fae, she could already smell the food from upstairs, and it made her taste-buds melt.

It was Fauna's announcement that truly set the archer at ease. A confirmation that they would get alone, making her smile. It had been quiet some time since she had any sort of welcome company, and Fauna was just that. Nodding in her own agreement, the redhead turned, that was when Quin attention was drawn to a very, very tall building of magnificent architecture.

The Fae couldn't hold back a whistle.

Climbing the stairs a step behind her new friend, if she wasn't being too forward about it. Quin admired the decorative dragon, admiring the details within the detail. If she wasn't mistaken there was a pattern carved into each individual dragon scale. Dedicated people to their profession for certain. Continuing to admire and awe over the space, and the tall building above her; was this really all one restaurant?

At Fauna's question of her first impression, aqua-blue eyes turned to her. "Wow just doesn't do this place justice...take all my assumptions, dreams and expectations and triple them to put it lightly..."

Smelling the food in the building, her mouth watered uncontrollably. Licking her soft pedal pick lips, Quin felt her stomach growl in want. Holding a hand to it, she gave a nervous smirk, it had been going on a day and a half since her last meal.

"This way please" asked the waiter, the two women followed him and weaved through some people before reaching one side where stone, giant tablets rest on the floor. They were great circle, like giant ancient Chinese coinage. As they stepped on Fauna leaned majestically on the wooden edges, it seemed like they were in an elevator, where the walls only stood high enough to lean your hip on them. Looking up, you could see all the way to the top floor. The waiter then clasped a stone pen of swords, with etching on its as he put it inside a slot of the elevator, soon enough blue light gleamed through the cracks of the elevator's floor as a magically essence began pushing them upwards. They zoomed passed countless floors of tables and diners, then a kitchen, then some more similar floors, now and then tipped with another kitchen and gorgeous smells. Soon enough, they were on the floor for them. They were lead to their table, it was in a nice corner with shelves fo books around them, a vase or two with lillies in them and a nice, wide window overlooking the city. They were... really high up.

"thankyou" said Fauna, taking her seat and gladly taking a seat, crossing her legs lavishly. The waiter placed down the menu's as Fauna leaned back and crossed her arms. "So where exactly do you come from?"

Following the waiter, she continued to gaze at the many sights before her. So much of the decor rich in color and design, it was fascinating. Reminded her a bit of the detail and dedication put int the decor of her people, only here it was rich in color. Back home things were paler in color or in earthy tones; not so much color.

Standing on the platform, she figured it was a lift of some kind, seeing as Quin raised her eyes to see the level far above her head. Though the speed of the lift surprised her that she gripped a railing out of surprise. A blur of motion, her stomach and heart at her feet, and then it was over to her happiness. Quin's stomach was starting to not agree with that vertical trip.

Glad to have their place, the Fae was quick to look out the window and admire the view she was being given. From a bird's eye view, the city was much different however, Quin quiet liked it. Even if her stomach did slight flip flops at the height, though nothing like the affect the lift had. Taking her seat though, the teal haired woman, crossed her legs as well.

"Me...I'm from the Dire Woods," she said casually. "...a more central Sanctuary within its depths though, before I left, I had never even been outside the woods," she said giving a bit of detail in why she wanted to travel. However, Sanctuary implied a 'village', it was a Fae word for where people resided in larger numbers.

Unfolding a menu on the table before her she began reading over some of the contents whilst listening to Quin at the same time, occasionally looking up to show she was listening. "hmmm Direwoods" Fauna began. "then i presume you haven't been far down south, either? Though, it is the sovereignty's turf, i get a bit irritated by all those scholars and scientists, know-it-all wizards and the kind. but if i had to choose... i'd go to Entei, they have clubs" she added with a grin. Thinking of South Occulas two main things sprang to mind, towering cityscape of Entei, and the city in the sky that was Skyfall, the Injustira's capital had nothing on Entei for Fauna, Skyfall was just a bunch of white spires and libraries, courts and halls. Where as Entei had clubs, shopping centers and everything modern. It was perhaps the most modern in Maigc Earth compared to all the cities.

Finished looking at her menu she waited for the waiter to come round pretty soon, she had a few things on her mind. Fried Gobbles and some fried rice. the menu had a variety of foods, some traditional, others more inclined for those that lived in Zakernand, like the Fried Gobbles. Gobbles were like water chestnut, but with a sweeter taste, wonderful Fauna thought.

Enjoying some simple conversation, she was quiet happy to have if Quin was truly honest with herself. Opening the menu, which was extensive she had to admit, she didn't even know where to start, so went with some of the more simple dishes, however sound just as tasty as the rest.

At the question of going down further south, Quin looked over her menu to meet Fauna's gaze. With a shake of her head she answered. "Not that far, and where I did, I didn't go into the particularly heavily populated areas." The Fae chuckled at the mention of 'clubs'. "I haven't been to one of those before either....be it anywhere. Read plenty of stories however...most interesting."

Chuckling at the stories running through her head, Quin'in decided on some things. A bowl of miso soup, dumplings and a dish of fried rice and glazed chicken. Putting the menu back down, she smiled at the woman across from her.

"Thanks again for inviting me...though I should be asking how expensive this place is; this little outing may break my pocket money," she said with a chuckle, though she wasn't too worried. If she had to, Quin was known to pick up a job where she was had landed to raise money. Part of why she hadn't gotten to as many places as she would have liked yet.

As she had expected, Quin hadn't gone too far south to the more populated towns or cities. Fair enough, sometimes people could get in the way. As for price of the restaurant, it was... rather expensive. But Fauna shrugged it off. "Don't worry, I'm a regular" she then glanced over at the young male waiter coming in their direction, he was fair, medium length hair and dark eyes. "Aren't I, Airon?" and the waiter looked almost startled. "Fauna, your usual?"
"Naturally... and if you're lucky we'll get some pillow talk", then he almost blushed and wrote down her usual order, then he looked to Quin and when she replied he took note and walked away. Then Fauna looked to Quin and remembered to mention "You don't really think i sleep with him? It's a tease the boy enjoys more and more each time, he'll charge us half-price so he's worth the time

She tilted her head slightly in question and confusion. Just because Fauna was a regular didn't imply she was and whatever liberties she had applied to a near stranger. Neither of Quin'in going to be taking advantage of Fauna's hospitality by making her pay. Before she could question or otherwise comment, the waiter was there and Fauna proving just how much of a regular she was.

And then the 'pillow talk' comment came and Quin as much as she tried, couldn't quiet hide or push down the full evidence of the blush on her face. She grew up sheltered and refined, however, since her travels didn't mean she hadn't caught on to the more 'unrefined' tastes of the modern Occulus.

Coughing and clearing her throat, Quin ordered her meal and the blushing boy was gone. Fauna's bold talk not helping to settled the Fae woman's blushing cheeks.

"I'm not one to judge on...your tastes Fauna," she stated simply, and a shake of the head. "Flirting to lower's ones bill...you certainly hold nothing by my new friend..."

"Well, i do my best to please" Fauna said with a little smirk, leaning back into her chair again. Fauna wasn't really one to care about impressions from others. She got by her own way, never really hurting anyone, she thought. She enjoyed having a little entertainment, and so did he. Doing this by herself all these years she never really had to worry about anyone else. And then she thought, if Quin is blushing now, wait until she saw Fauna in action, if she had the chance. "blushing already, Quin?" she asked, "surely i don't have that much of an effect" she joked.

There was no stopping the smirk that grew on the Fae's lips at her new acquaintance's words. It was becoming quite clear that Fauna was a person that did things her own way and stuck to them. Neither good nor bad, it was simply an eccentric sort of way. Quin had no such way, clearly for getting along so well so quickly, they were still very different people.

The Fae woman had hoped that Fauna would have called out her blushing, however, as she was beginning to know the fiery redhead, that was not the case. Blushing more out of embarrassment now, Quin bowed her teal head. Overcoming it gradually, she put an elbow on the low table and set her chin in her hand.

"You should have seen me when I was a teenager....I could have with all possibility, fainted," she said with a chuckle. Considering that outcome, blushing to the warm shade of pink wasn't so bad.

A different person this time came to the table, a young girl carrying two cups and a kettle. Polity and quietly asking if they would want tea, Quin'in nodded. The young girl quickly doing as requested and looked to Fauna to wait for her answer.

Fauna was surprised, Quin was not exactly like Fauna, and Fauna was not exactly like Quin, but they got along better than most people. Fauna was never normally one for staying with anyone for too long at a time, she always thought it was far easier to get things done alone than rely on others. But despite her attitude at most times, despite her flirtatious style and sarcastic comments most of the time, she was a battle-born warrior, hailing from her ancestry of Rome.

She smirked however at Quin's response to blushing. As for the tea, Fauna shook her head lightly with a hand up to politely say no. As the young girl walked away, the young man from before returned and said "Your usual, Fauna"
"Oh, you certainly know how to play a girl" she teased back, taking from his hand a red lollipop. It was not like most, the sweet at the end carved into a rose shape. As the boy walked away, she admired the lolly and then opened her mouth, setting the sweet upon her tongue and closing her lips around it. Between speaking she would always take it out elegantly, before replacing it after her sentence.

After only a short while longer of waiting, their food arrived, the young man holding Fauna's, the young girls holding Quin's. The food was steaming, and it smelled like the food of the gods themselves, filling Fauna's nostrils with sensations no person would discover elsewhere in Magic Earth. The last thing placed before them was chip sticks and a green and gold napkin. Soon after, they were left alone again to eat their meal in peace.

"so", Fauna began, removing her still unfinished lolly from her mouth and placing it aside on the unused saucer. "How often do you use that bow?", Fauna asked, interested, the world was for the most part peaceful... unless you were looking for trouble. But then again, Fauna lived that way, it may have been very different for Quin.

Pleasantly happy with the tea, as it was some of the best she had ever had. She knew she just may have to buy some from a teller out on the street or find a tea shop. Most of the tea she had access too was simple and nothing complex like a twist of citrus, tea leaves and herbs such as this blend.

When Fauna received her usual, Quin raised a brow. Rather interesting that her usual was in fact a lollipop and some sort of drink. The redhead was indeed a strange one, but that made her more pleasant to be around. Unique was always made better company in the Fae's opinion.

Food having arrived, Quin'in perked up and placed down her tea, admiring the steaming pile of food set before her. Eyes large she stared at the large amount present, much more then she knew she was going to be able to eat.

"..didn't realize there was going to be so much..." she murmured allowed. But Fauna's question of her use of her bow that got her attention. "My bow? Oh well nearly every day....unless in the city and can buy my own food, I mostly use it for hunting for food. There are cases of course where I may have to use it as protection...I rarely miss, and if I do its usually on purpose."

Beginning to pick up her food with her chopsticks, she elegantly draped food onto her lips as they captured it. Quin, explaining her use for a bow made Fauna stop eating for a moment as she raised a brow and said "you hunt for food? My, my" as she took another gulp of her food. Fauna then continued to enjoy her meal, small talk here and there, gorgeous, teasing glances at the young man across the room every now and again. The natural view somewhat helped, as well as the plants around them, it gave them some fresh air and something to look at incase she got too full with food, nothing worse than feeling ill from devouring too much mouth-watering food.

Gazing out though, she did notice a flock of birds rush from one set of buildings. Brushing it off as a cat or something she took another, slow gulp of food. But then she turned her head against as she saw a lamp post get wobbled, and then fall over silently in the distance. "How amusing" she said, placing her chin on her fist, staring out of the window. "Looks like someone is having another tantrum over energy bills..." she then narrowed her brows on the spot over yonder. Then there was a tell-tale sign of what it really was, as the very small spot where the lamp fell she saw the entire area turn dull for a second, and then that's when Fauna placed down her chopsticks. "That's no tantrum" she then corrected herself, looking to Quin, almost suggesting she should have something to say about it.

The surprise at the mention of her hunting for food, Quin was a bit perplexed at this. "Is it uncommon?" she asked in confusion. The Fae thought it an ever day thing, those that lived with no home had to find food some way more so if they had no money to buy it with. "Is there something wrong with me hunting?"

Still finding it odd, she waited for her answers while she ate her mouth watering food and soothing tea. So caught up in it, she nearly forgot she was waiting for answers, however it was sooner realized that she wouldn't get them. Rather Fauna's attention had drawn out the window and murmured about her amusement and tantrums. Following her gaze, Quin noted the falling over lamp post. What really caught her attention was the odd affect that happened before her eyes.

For just a moment, the place on the city when dull. Staring and questioning she looked to Fauna who was staring at her.

"No tantrum...means no civilian's fault..." she murmured and gradually the notions set in. "Wait...are you implying a Nightmare?!" she exclaimed in a softer tone to her table partner while leaning forward so other tables didn't hear and become worried.

Unsure if that was the correct answer, Quin's eyes went back to the area of destruction. There was clouds of dust and whatever else coming from the area, becoming less and less unnoticeable to the crowds she was sure. This city was large and crowded still...the chaos happening down there...

"Should we go help?" Quin asked, unsure if that was even an option, but she wanted to; she had the urge to run from the res truant and regrettably leave her food behind to go toward the danger and help out with whatever was going on down there. But as she was invited here and by Fauna, she held herself back with a fair amount of effort.
