((Entry))
It took a little longer than Gene would have liked to get back to the Kingdom of Dreams, what with her tired state and having to stop to rest along the way. Her miasma was critically low, but at least she had the flowers.
Once back, she went back to her tea supply to find it ravaged. Her eyes went livid as she searched around, ignoring the man and his fireworks. Who would have done such a crime?
Breathe, she told herself, breathe and be a stream. Anger clouds the mind and the heart...
She reorganized her things slowly, packing and tying little bags that had been torn open by the culprit. She could make it through this, with patience and time.
And a little chamomile.

As he looked around, he soon realized that Clyde was shifting away from him. The former assassin narrowed his eyes as he slowly turned towards the hunter. And such, he began to approach as well, staring coldly.
"Did you eat all the food?"

"NO!" Clyde responded as calmly as possible, though that's questionable with how nervous he looked. He backed away some more while continuing to hold a plate of what seems to be dumplings in his hands. Seriously, the noodles are somewhere. Clyde just doesn't know where.
O n O HE LEFT SOME FOR YOU OKAY. HE JUST DOESN'T REMEMBER WHERE.

When she heard Shun interrogating the boy from earlier, her paranoid mind immediately snapped and her gaze fell on the hunter.
"Did you...do this to my tea...?" A furious flush began to seep across her face, jaw clenching tightly. One did not trifle with something as sacred as tea.

Clyde let out a meek "No." at Gene, still making sure to keep an eye on Shun in case the other attacked. Of all the edible things he's consumed, Clyde had not had a drink at all. He's simply been eating...A lot.

Clyde was given a hard glare, and then she turned her face away.
Just her and her chamomile....

With his focus on Clyde, Shun didn't notice that Gene was starting to get rather infuriated as well. He just continued to slowly approach. And with a flick of his wrist, he had drawn out of his his daggers rather swiftly. It was then that he heard Gene's question regarding the tea.
".... The tea is gone too?" he asked while looking towards her briefly. He quickly shifted his gaze back to the hunter, glaring daggers into him.
"I should gut you," he hissed before striking....
He just stabbed into one of the dumplings on the plate.

"No, master Shun. Someone just...trifled with my things, so far as I can tell." She sighed, putting the cup of chamomile down. She had calmed herself and put everything back in it's proper place.
But still...to violate her space like that.
Oh, where had her politeness gone.
"Would you like a cup, sir Tiger?"

"I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TEA AND I ONLY HAD HALF OF THE NOODLES." Clyde shouted in self defense while trying to flee. The one dumpling was hit, and the rest were up in the air...as were the plate.
WHY IS EVERYONE AFTER HIM TODAY.
...it's raining dumplings now.
Clyde has been degraded from Stone Lion to VICTIM. O 7 O

Shun nodded to Gene but kept his gaze trained on their number one suspect. He reached out and caught a second dumpling as they began to rain around.
"...Half?"
So where had the other half gone? Feeling a little irritable now, he just turned away sharply and dropped the second dumping onto Riley's lap before taking the one he had stabbed for himself.
"A cup of tea would be nice. But please, there is no need for titles," he said to the other Tortoise.

Thank everything, he's alive. Q 7 Q
His relief of being alive was cut short as the dumplings he threw into the air out of fear started raining down on him instead. Poor Clyde just doesn't seem to have any luck today.

"Ah, yes. Excuse me then, Shun." The woman beamed, pouring hot water into a cup to prepare the man's tea. "What kind would you like? White, green, ginger, black?"
She took note of Riley, the other Tortoise, and gave her a smile too. "Tea for you, Tortoise?"

[entering Gilly]
Gilly walked cautiously back through the streets of the red kingdom. Still carrying the miasma in her hands. She stopped by the noodle shop before heading back to the palace. She placed the miasma in a small soup bowl and gathered up some supplies into her delivery box.
"This will do, next time I can bring back more." She picked her bowl of miasma back up and headed to the palace to meet with other volunteers who had returned from their tasks.
Gilly walked into the palace gardens and looked around for someone to help her. She wasn't sure what to do with her bowl of... miasma stuff.

And like mana from heaven, a dumpling fell from the sky, and Riley sat up straighter to catch it. She caught the sight of Shun walking away, and her eyes lit up, shining with admiration. What a noble act of him to share his meal with her. He was a very kind man!
She pressed her finger against the dumpling, breaking the soft shell in order to find..
Ah.. is this.. meat? She whispered in awe. I've never eaten the flesh of an animal before.. How decadent. How sinful.
She broke it into pieces and held it back behind her head, sucking them up instantly with her tentacles. How delicious!
The other Tortoise offered her tea, and she nodded her head quickly. That would be delightful, thank you for your kind offer!

Moving to sit back into the shade, Shun set his dumpling down before quickly cleaning his dagger. He went ahead and removed his face mask in the meantime.
"Green tea would be excellent, thank you," he said quietly to Gene. He was about to take a bit out of his food when he heard Riley say that she had never eaten meat.
"Apart from training with me and offering advice... what have you done?"
He was starting to realize it really wasn't much at this point.
