Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

Ugh, no more drinking. No more drinking.

And all of my ideas are brilliant.

Me? Just because I said no-one liked Morris dancing; well, no-one of my acquaintance, anyway.

Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

Chris, when we're criticised for our racist attitude, we simply cite morris dancing.

Anyone who does it, deserves all he gets.

Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

Firstly, no thanks Ace. Appreciate the offer, but I prefer to heal the old fashioned way.

That is, wizards and such.

SECONDLY - er, yes. Of course Mr. Chrispenycate. I do believe you. Absolutely. No hard feelings at all. And I'm not just saying that because of the nerve damage.

It's all good fun. Innit? INNIT!?

Oh, Morris Dancing, you say?

Yeah, that's my current thing, isn't it! *Pulls out the hats, sticks and bells again*

You do realise that the chrons' defensive systems don't permit accordions or their music.

Ah, I'll make do somehow.

Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

*Stares at No One and starts at the book he selects* No no no no no. No plant elementals. They weren't even invited to the wedding. And I don't care how the dryads felt about that, they would have ruined everything.

*Smacks No with his own book* Oi, less of that. There's been terrible times with coffee elementals before. Do you want me to go into shock again?

Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

Hoopy's reactions aside, you have no idea what plant elementals can do. Especially right now since they knew we deliberately ignored them. And coffee elementals are worse because of their natural caffeine levels.

Re: The Tea Room (Renovated)

Now, that's interesting. Since coffee came from Ethiopia, and was moor or less discovered by the Arabs, I'd have expected a coffee Djinn, rather than an elemental.

Though Irish coffee with uisce beatha would be preferable, both of its constituents being essential food groups (coffee and alcohol)
