prayer five ✞ dictated

[starhipped]

[Esther actually seems kind of sad and not her normal, cheery self!]

I guess.. people have been saying the children have all gone...

[Oh? Is that it? It's easier to miss something that you never had! Esther, while she did help others out with childcare cough, Father Tres, was not given a child of her own! On one hand, that was probably a good thing - who would it have looked like? She didn't have a partner in Paradisa. On the other, it made her kind of sad to see the tots go.]

I hope people aren't too sad over their departure. After all, it had to happen at some point! Still, they were cute...

[Sniff!

Looks like the one who is upset is Esther! But she pulls herself together quickly. After all, she had a mission in this broadcast!]

I was thinking .. perhaps one night some people would like to get together and make dinner? Some of you may be used to eating in groups and it can be lonely here, if you don't have someone to eat with. We could make a night out of it, making dinner and eating together, even having dessert!

A-Ah.. if people are interested..

I'm sure I could help whip a wee something up, sister. I'm a dab hand in the kitchen.

[starhipped]

Is that so? Well, I'd certainly be happy to have you! [Esther can make .. sandwiches! U-Um. And that's about it!]

What are your specialties?

[atadiscoverer]

I wouldn't say I have a specialty, but if you give me a recipe, I can follow it, and they usually turn out well.

[starhipped]

I think that's quite a talent! Some people don't have any talent for cooking!

[Like this girl.]

[atadiscoverer]

Well, when you think about it, a recipe is just a set of instructions. You just have to follow them.

I'm sure I'll be able to knock a wee something up.

[takethat]

I'd be interested in something like that.

[Because without his twins now, he's... surprisingly lonely.]

Even a potluck would be nice.

[starhipped]

I was thinking the same thing! It might .. help people feel more at home here.

I don't think we've met - I'm Sister Esther Blanchett.

[takethat]

Nice to meet you--I'm Phoenix Wright. I'm a defense attorney.

[starhipped]

Ooh, woooow! That must be a very difficult job!

[compromisedarrow]

Dinner, huh? Guess it would be nice to meet some new people.

Is it invite-only or something?

[starhipped]

Oh, not at all! The invite is for everyone! You are more than welcome to come, that's the point!

[Biiiiig smile!]

Have we met, before?

[compromisedarrow]

Probably not. I'm Clint Barton, a pleasure.

[starhipped]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Barton! My name is Sister Esther Blanchett. I'd be honored if you would attend the dinner!

[ironlady]

What a lovely idea, Sister Blanchett. I'll be sure to attend and help should you need it.

[starhipped]

A-Ah, Your Eminence! That is very kind of you!

[ironlady]

Not at all. It's kind of you to think of this after everything the residents have been through this week.

[She's actually pleased with you, Esther. Way to make the Vatican look good!]

[starhipped]

I can .. understand the pain of losing someone you feel is part of your family. While it seems the children are safe, it's best to keep busy at times like these.

[Esther is the best Vatican rep ever!]

I-If you would attend .. it could be a time for you to relax!

[spongetastic]

That sounds like a good idea, Esther. You can count me in.

[starhipped]

It'll be nice to meet you in person, Peter! Do you have any specific dietary constraints or concerns? Anything you would like to eat?

[spongetastic]

I'm not that picky, really. Whatever you make will be fine.

[starhipped]

A-A-Ah... I'm not .. so sure!

[She is a pathetically bad cook.]

Do you know how to cook?

[inafadingcrown]

It sounds a most pleasant way to spend an evening.

[starhipped]

A-Ah, Lady Galadriel! W-Would you .. want to attend?

[inafadingcrown]

I would, if it would not inconvenience you overmuch. [i.e. make you die of nerves.]

[starhipped]

Oh, no, I would love to have you! I'm just not sure..

Anything I can make won't be the type of food you're used to..
