FitzRoyal Sultan: *huffs at Fitz, and pads silently across the thread, before curling up in a corner to observe threadgoers*Monarche: *Raises an eyebrow at his companion and settles himself close to the cat nonchalantly*

Monarche: *Head swivels immediately to the two new arrivals at the mention of tea. Gracefully rises and wanders his way over, eyeing the China the whole time* Anytime, my dears. Pray tell, what are we having today? Sultan: *Growls under his breath at the quick abandonment by his friend....but intrigued despite himself and can't help but rise and stalk over to the other felines. He eyes them as opposed to the food being set out*

Katya: *inclines her head at Monarche, smiling* This is Emperor's Clouds and Mist Green Tea, mixed with a Peach Tranquility. It is one of our favorites to drink during the summer months.
Irina: *shakes her tail and sets out a plate of meat pies, glancing at the strange cat now and again as she grins widely* Do we need scones and jam?

Monarche: *inclines his head back to Katya, and also to Irina* Mmmm.... I can tell you are connoisseurs. What a fine decision, you are truly a paragon of your art. *He smiles back before addressing the elephant in the room*. May..*he hesitates* Done you mind if I look at that teacup? It's a rather fine piece of china, I do say. Sultan: *Smiles back at Irina, a bit awkwardly before glancing down at the food set out* ...I am getting hungry seeing this array of food. Sure, let's have scones too....but, out of curiosity, who are you?

Katya: We take pride in our tea, true enough, and with some fine herds now growing tea leaves as well, we are able to trade for blends we may not have brought with us. *blinks in surprise, and then grins widely* Why of course. Please feel free. *slides the teacups and their saucers closer* And after you have looked, please do have a cup as well. *slides the teapot closer also*
Irina: *giggles and produces a platter of scones and a jar of jam and a crock of honey before looking at the spread with something like contentment* There you are then, take what you like, or two of what you don't as I'm sure it will change your mind. Hrrrm? *purrs the question, then grins wide* Why, I'm Irina, and she's Katya. We're of the Underland Herd. Who are you?

Monarche: Ahhh *Slowly inclines his head down to the teacup and saucer, admiring it from all angles, before coughing lightly under his breath.*Sultan: *Glances over at his companion and smiles wider, if slightly maliciously. Using a delicate paw, he lifts the teapot, and pours a glass of tea expertly. He slides it over to the stallion with a smirk, before turning back to Irina* Monarche: *He takes a sip and slowly closes his eyes to savors the tastes, his enjoyment obvious. Finally he cracks an eye open and looks at Katya* Exquisite! *He smiles at her in appreciation before taking another long sip* Other tea herds? Sultan: *Watches Monarche for a moment before swiping a cup for himself and pouring himself a glass. Licking delicately, it's gone in moments. He then turns to the food and takes one of a few things, two of others and three of what's left, creating a mini mountain for himself. Before digging in to the pile, he pauses and glances at Irina* Underland herd? interesting...I have yet to have met an underling. I'm Sultan, of the small horses, and this is Monarche, most recently of the Faire. *he grins back at her and turns to the feast before him.*

Katya: Do you make such commodities, or know of someone who does? I only ask because your taste in them seems quite sophisticated, and it is always pleasant to meet other artisans. We visited a traveling festival that had many such vendors, I hope to see them again soon, i found their wares most engaging.
Irina: *stops talking long enough to seize the teapot handle in her mouth and pour a cup for herself, refilling Sultan's cup before setting it aside again* Underlanders are most interesting, I assure you. My sisters and I are Cheshire Cats, but we know many other interesting folk besides. And of course we all love tea and cakes and a fine party, so it is generally a good humored bunch and our guests seem to enjoy themselves. Oh! You should visit! We have many other sisters, you see, and they would all be delighted to meet you. *flicks her ears* Oh the Faire, too? We know of your folk then, Monarche, though we've not met any small horses. *glances back to Sultan* Do they like tea too?
Katya: *helps herself to a scone and jam, then nibbles a cake and sips some more of her tea before continuing* Yes, there are other herds here that grow tea leaves to brew and trade. Some among the Faire herd have recently taken up the task, I understand. There is also White Leaf and its Sister Herd, they are friends of ours. Lovely folk, most with hooves or claws you know. *she lifts a paw and waves it, then sets it down* But one or two with paws as well. Interesting folk of all kinds, which are always pleasant to know.
