Would you leave the Castle now, if you could?

Friday was unfortunate. But for most of the year, surely it has given us a comfortable home and the most singular of friends.

And so, as for myself, I would not. I should like to tarry here a little longer, if only to relish the taste of liberty and the fruits of invention. Refrigerators are so magnificent!

[ With that, she will be in the kitchen with the fridge door open, sticking her hands into it with glee. ]

And you must have many friends, when you are so generous.

[He splutters a little, giving the awkward chuckle that is unique to Englishmen receiving a compliment.]

A-Ah... that's very kind of you, Miss Borgia, if a little flattering.

[heloise]

[ She likes the stuttering. It attests to the effectiveness of the compliment. ]

I should still like to return the favor.

[thwarting]

There is no favour owed between us, though I wouldn't object to a cup of tea if you're offering.

[heloise]

I would offer you a cup of Turkish tea. My Moorish friend showed me.

[thwarting]

[Only manners kept him from asking what was wrong with a decent cup of PG Tips.]

That sounds delightful, my dear.

[heloise]

[ Haha! And he may need to refrain from asking where the scones have gone. ]

How about tomorrow afternoon, Aziraphale?

[thwarting]

Tomorrow afternoon sounds delightful, consider it a date.

[heloise]

[ ooc; action/log/assume? I'm okay with whichever! ]

[thwarting]

[ooc: I don't mind! You choose, I shall be happy with anything <3]

[heloise]

[ ooc; I'll put up an action log soon and edit this comment TADA! ]
