There came a loud flapping of wings, a low, understated hiss, and a rather monotone, "There you are, Hollandaise."

"Ready for Tasting!"Prize won: ticket!~ Minis S/N: Hollandaise jerked slightly at that familiar voice, banging her hand into the teapot. Hot! With a small noise of distress, she turned to face the dragon ghoul. "Oh! Ah... hello Deszeld. Yes... here I am." She was struck once again by how tall Des was and how green and how magnificent. Of course, if she told her that, the ghoul would preen for days - Hollandaise could already tell. So instead she smiled, as if to say 'of course you found me, how could you not?', and turned back to the tea. Deszeld was close enough that she could feel the heat the other ghoul's body gave off. She had ducked out rather abruptly to wander the carnival alone for a bit, and for the first few booths, had kept an eye out for the green dragon. She was... no unexpected, but neither expected. With a stinging hand, Hollandaise poured the tea into cups for her host, and herself and one extra. "Try my tea?" She turned to Deszeld, wincing as her burned hand brushed against her clothing. [A.V.] 31-60 – "You have a nice flavour developing here." Not bad! +1 Ticket

Making Tea!
Deszeld grunted loudly and took the dark blue cup and the doily that came with it. Her tongue lashed out, and she paused before she lifted the cup to her lips.
It was... not bad. Not bad at all.
Deszeld set the mug down and glanced over at the tea-making supplies. If Hollandaise had made tea, well, Deszeld would make tea, too.
The green really didn't pay much attention to what she was doing. She grabbed some of this, some of that, whatever. The spice mix made her sneeze, and the orange cup she grabbed was as far from her favored color as any color could possibly be, but Deszeld didn't mind. It kind of matched one of the flowers that sprouted from Holly's hair. The doily she snatched up matched a different flower. That was nice, right? Friendship was easy.

Hollandaise watched Deszeld drink, looking for any subtle changes in expression. Well, the ghoul didn't seem to hate the tea. The booth ghouls seemed to like it well enough as well. Perhaps that was a skill she could bring back - that she suddenly knew how to brew tea and could be useful. She took Des's orange cup in her hands and sniffed the steaming brew. A petal fell out of her hair to float on the surface. She took a drink and stiffened. Bitter! So bitter! She swore all the leaves on her arms shivered in shock. With a small cough, she placed the cup down. "Deszeld, this tea does not taste as... beautiful as it could. But thank you for making some for me." Ah, it wasn't fair, really. Deszeld had given her more things that Holly had given in return. She narrowed her eyes up at the ghoul. Suddenly, she wanted to pet the crest of top of her head. Blinking, she counted up all the gifts that had been given.... Yes. Hollandaise was behind by at least one. And Hollandaise never forgot a debt. "I am sure you are good at other things."

Deszeld grunted, loudly, and glanced over at the discarded tea cup she'd been given by Hollandaise. "Tea is not very good anyway. It is merely crushed up leaves mixed with other things. Eye scream is much better." Deszeld waved a hand. "I am good at many things. Shall I tell you?"

"Eye scream, eye scream, you scream..." Hollandaise stared at Des. "Tea is very good, but... come." Impulsively, she wrapped her thin fingers around Des's hand and ventured elsewhere in the carnival.

Making Tea!
The ghoul decided to give this tea making thing another try. She had to succeed in something delicious right? Meixiang enjoyed tea and she'd feel bad if she didn't come up with something good.
She pick Black Tea this time. Adding a bit of orange peel for accent. This time she picked a purple tea cup. Because purple was her favorite color and the best color anyway. And last she placed it on a white doily that reminded her of a snow flake.

"Ready for Tasting!" Prize won: Minipet Minis S/N: Yayoi Lucky for her the purple tea cup seemed to add an extra bit of pointage to the judging. Not that they were really going on a points system. Right? She was pretty sure they were just looking for good tasting tea.

Mia greeted the two ghouls who visited the booth, noting that one seemed to have more of a gift with tea-brewing than the other, but she thanked them both for attempting to do so, and hoped they would come back sometime.
Another managed to tip the scale a bit in her favour by picking the purple teacup, and she couldn't help but smile.
"Thank you, the tea was lovely."pinchmonster Thank you for dropping by!

Making Tea!
The Roc knew nothing about tea, but welcoming smiles could not be ignored. "Hello ladies." he said with a smile himself, and proceeded to act as if he knew exactly what he was doing. He picked a random canister and poured some of the green tea it contained into a pot. Seeing something more familiar and thinking all ghouls like chocolate, he added some of that as well and set it to brew. While he waited he grabbed a tea set he though his eccentric tea-loving aunt would have chosen and some of those doilies that looked like pretty snowflakes. Assembling three cups he poured his tead mixture into them.

"Ready for Tasting!"Prize won: Ticket+ mini (maxed on tickets for the day, playing for fun <3) Minis S/N: Wingseagle Judas watched the ghouls carefully taste his creation. He was a little anxious waiting, and wished he hadn't rushed through the whole thing willy-nilly. What if he's put too many leaves or something? He smiled happily at their response, and wondered if maybe he should practice a bit more. Hey if ghouls liked it, couldn't he attract more of them by working in/opening a tea shop? Manly pride was not an issue with Judas.

Marcy watched their latest guest with fascination. He seemed to know exactly what he was doing. His choices, the way he handled things, and the way it turned out? Amazing. Just amazing. He totally knew how to do this. "So very nice," she said again, "thank you for sharing your exceptional tastes!"

Making Tea!
Nova seems upbeat when he arrives, waving at the booth owners as he rummages through the tea selection. He was in the mood for Rose Hip and Jasmine tea again. After he leaves it to brew, Nova heads over to the selection of tea cups and picks out his favorite colored one, purple. He still hasn't figured out the use of a doily, all he'd learned from his older sisters was he was not suppose to use it in place of a napkin to wipe his mouth. Go figure. Still, he finds a rather cute white one made to look like a swarm of smiling bats.

"Ready for Tasting!"
The tea looked good, the tea smelled good... however it didn't taste good. And all the impressive choices couldn't cover it up. Nova blanched at the tea he'd made. He'd just really wanted a cup of tea today. Maybe one of the ghouls would take pity on him and let him pour a lot of honey into it so he could finish it.
