Sage replied, " is your statue accurate? oh, and because I know they won't be in here. It's a law of weddings. The sooner it is to the wedding, the more likely the bride and groom are to be nervous about it. When people are nervous they go for comfort....oh crap. comfort foods. Anyway, this is the only place that is clean enough to do this kind of work. please keep them busy if either decides to come in here in the next hour or so. That's all I'll need to finish this and get it packed."
As he mentioned seph's statue, he motioned to a half finished statue made of sugar. If anyone were to look the statues over, they would notice that each was taking a different pose. Reeve and Fenris's statues (now both complete and being 'painted') looked as if they could be fit together in a hug/embracing kiss. The others looked as if they belonged on furniture.

((Edit))
He smiled softly at the sculptures. "Yeah, Sage, it looks like me, alright."
Seph stepped over the food creations and moved next to Nyl, hands behind his back, watching her like an interested kid.
"How's the tea comin'?"

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know..."
Reeve shakes his head ferverently (sp?). Just /looking/ in the direction of the dojo makes him queasy.

Sage nodded a bit, " that's good. I know a few of them are going to be a little off. But that's because I'm doing it from memory. Or...they're doing it from my memory...yeah...that's about right."
In the land of chocolate crafting, some of the constructs seemed to be working on pieces of furniture. If anyone had a good eye, they would notice that it looked identical to the furniture around the GNA. However, some of the furniture had strange indentations in it.

"The tea," Nyl said with a grin as the kettle whistled, "is ready."
She poured a cup for him first, and one for herself second.
"...Cheers, I suppose."

Another squawk echoes through trees. Iri's crow swoops down to land on her left wing. It turns to Reeve and caws what it hopes is a sound of reassurance. Even if he hates crows, that doesn't mean the crow hates him.
Iri steps back and looks at Reeve. Her features become serious. "You hurt me more than a hole in my wing ever could, but I still love you. If you want to be with me, I'll accept you. But you also have to consider Fenris. Either way you go, you're going to hurt someone again."

Seph smiled, but it wasn't as strong as normal. He rose it to hers, clicked them together, and agreed, "Cheers." He took a sip and let the warm tea send goosebumps down his arms and back.
He took a deep breath and vowed never to go so long without tea again. He paused for a moment, thinking, then drowned his thoughts in another grand gulp of tea.
"Happy Thursday."

"I know."
It's all he can say. He starts walking toward the dojo.

The tiny constructs looked to seph as he said 'happy thursday'. They then stopped their work for a moment and let out a chorus of three 'huzzah!'s. The small army then went back to work constructing statues of sugar and strange things out of chocolate.

"Indeed." Nyl sipped hers too. It had been a long time.
Rather fitting that I'm leaving again tomorrow...

"I've been thinking.." He began, his face twisting into one of deep thought. It was almost comical. "I've been shirking my duties as your Sensei for too long. I'd like to continue our lessons, as soon as possible."

Iri watches him for a moment, then starts to follow. She can feel butterflies in her stomach. Things are about to get very dramatic. The girl suddenly finds herself wishing that she had more experience in handling situations such as this. Or that she had listened more to the happenings of her family.
Which reminds me, they're later than ever. I wonder who Mom sent after me?
About that time, an unnatural breeze blows through the forest. On the current of air is a voice, somehow mature and innocent at once. The message is quiet enough that one would have to be listening for it to catch it. "Iri-Iri, little sister is waiting for you."
She ignores the voice for now. Reeve might need her more.

"As soon as possible...would be some time next week." She laughed a little. "I hate to bring this down on you, Seph, but I'm leaving again, for a week this time. ...Can I leave you in charge?"

In a strangely quick fashion, the constructs pick up their ingredients and carry them into sage's sleeves. They then come back out and carry the cake into his sleeve, followed by the sugar sculptures and a large amount of sugar blocks.
Sage then says, " I'll finish it soon. I'd rather not ruin any more of the cake for you two. After all, you still don't know what it will look like at the end."

Fenris' tummy grumbled as she sighed and got to her feet, leaving her dojo. She slipped down the hall towards the Main Room and towards the kitchen, seeing a few people inside, not ever noticing Sage's construct due to a wall being in the way.
