unbested | w7 couch party

[Estelle's brought some tea in four to-go cups, and some cookies from the restaurant. She sets them down on the coffee table.]

Help yourselves, okay?

[He takes one of the teas and tips it towards her.]

Thanks, Pink.

[She gives him a little bow.]

And thank you, for having us. It's lucky you have a room that can comfortably seat so many people.

Yeah. I prefer havin' company, so this was a nice addition.

[Isolation isn't great for most people.]

It's a nice place! I like the unique atmosphere.

[Estelle doesn't mind the cave.]

Thanks.

Used to live in a cave for a few hundred years. They're comfortable.

That's such a long time...

[She thinks a little.] Rita lived in a cave, too... Isn't it cold in winter, though?

What? Why would it be cold?

Is it not...? Stone walls and floors tend not to retain heat very well.

I can't usually tell. My magic means I'm fine whatever temperature it is.

Oh... being a wizard certainly seems to have its advantages...

It's great when ya live in the tundra.

Hehe... I can imagine.

I wonder how the mages in the Empire do it... Maybe they use magic to keep warm, too.

What's the empire?

It's the nation I'm from.

It's just called the empire?

[ He's just from North, he has no rights to say this. ]

Ooh... thanks!

[ grabs a cup and a cookie! ]

My pleasure. Let's all try to take it easy and relax while we can.

Yeah... I know we've still got a lot to worry about, but it kind of feels better already just knowing we don't have to worry about everyone killing and lying anymore.

Right...! A lot of scary things have been happening, but it feels a lot better knowing we can rely on each other.

Yeah! We should have a pretty good chance now that it's everyone together, and the staff too. I just... hope I can find a way to be useful myself.

I'm sure you will! You have some handy items, right? And you're always doing your best!

Right... Thanks.

[Time to grab a cookie!]

Thanks!

[She grins back at him.]

You're welcome. We don't know what tomorrow will bring, so let's make sure to rest well tonight.
