Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pound had arranged to meet a tea maker in the Park this evening and he was going full whack to get there on time, his schedule took him through this park so he would be able to make this meeting. In his claws he held a plastic carrier bag with some ingredients inside. One of his patients was an elderly witch and swore by herbal remedies, she kept forcing them on him but he had no use for them.

One of his very few 'friends' had suggested these would be good tea ingredients, 'you know that wild hot drink the ladies go crazy for?'.

'Half Prices lot are famous for it, and its even more popular outside of them because its difficult to source'
Pound was interested in this stuff, if the ladies liked it, it sounded interesting.

'Its actually supposed to be pretty good for you, you know as you're a doctor and all, it' might be pretty useful'
Pound wasn't interested in herbal remedies, he didn't believe in witch-stuff.

"So why do girls like it so much?"
His friend Fish n' Chips just shrugged, his scruffy slate feathers bunching up.
'No idea, they go mad for it though, Gives them an excuse to talk I guess, like they need much of an excuse'
He had given a gruff laugh and they said nothing more of it.

So Pound was here trying to learn about this tea drink. With this in mind he landed atop the fountain and waited for the other party.

Pound saw the waving coffee across the park with a large scarf,
'that must be him' he set off swooping low and came to a stop next to the tea maker, & he could smell the tea before he saw it. The air around this pidge was a warm smell of lavender and lemon.

Pound was incredibly interested.

"Hello! you must be Sweet Revenge, of Sweet Teas, I'm Pound-a-Pint...or Pound for short"

he gave a grin and offered his claws in a formal shake, while doing so he looked behon the other pidge curiously to the little plumes of steam.

Ah so is this what tea looks like?"

He took a deep breath in and smiled.

"It does smell good!"

Pound was eager to try this tea drink and this Rev seemed like a sound guy. So clutching a cup in his pinions he looked at the warm murky green broth and swirled it around observing it like a fine wine (if only he knew what that was). He sniffed it and it smelled kind of like sweet grass and flowers, Pound didn't really have the trained senses for this, it was more than likely the apple and chamomile pot.

Still looking at the the drink feeling its heat soak up through his feathers he looked to Rev, curious.

"Everyone in Half price's is supposed to be big fans of this stuff, Whats the best way to enjoy tea?"

Pound looked a little nervous asking, he was out of his comfort zone having to ask questions about something and knowing very little about it.

"Like on your own, or in a group?"

He stopped to sip at the warm drink and smiled deeply, It was really quite nice,

"Since we don't get things like this in our flock, I was thinking of having a kind of tasting party?"

He hoped this wasn't a strange kind of thing,

"Thats not an odd thing is it? Like its not a weird kind of thing to do is it?"

Pound ruffled his feathers and placed the empty cup down
