sirdarkhat: (When can I see you again?)

Tea shop of course

[Tea sounded wonderful after returning from an excavation. The Professor had been hearing about a certain tea shop had been gaining some popularity recently, so he decided to look into this quaint little shop.

There was certainly a welcoming air to it, familiar eventhough he had never been to this establishment. It was getting to that time of night when there were a few customers scattered about...which led him pondering for a moment how close it was to closing time. He didn't know the shop's business hours and he didn't like being that customer who showed up ten minutes before closing.

Well, he was already here, and there was an elderly gentleman coming to greet him now, so there was no point turning back. He tipped his hat to him.]


Good evening. I hope I have not inconvenienced you for coming at this hour. [An archeologist's life is a busy one]
teaspirited: or find an old friend again (always nice to meet someone new)

[Even if the shop had been about to close, Iroh had never really been one for turning someone away.]

Of course you haven't, please, take a seat. Would you like some tea?
sirdarkhat: (I know you're gold)

[personal profile] sirdarkhat 2014-09-24 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[He smiled appreciatively.]

I would quite like that, thank you. [And he settled himself down at a table. He could feel the aches from standing around all day slowly melt away now that he was sitting down.]

Usually I'd ask for a spot of earl grey tea, but I've heard I shouldn't pass up on the jasmine tea here if I ever visited this shop.

[Had word really spread so quickly about the tea here? It had been getting busier in the shop lately, almost like it had at that little tea shop in Ba Sing Se's lower ring. Still, he was happy here.]

Jasmine is my personal favorite, so my recommendation is biased. Though if you would prefer earl grey, I will get that for you.

[No swaying, no suggesting to just get both. That's just his style. The customer knows what the customer wants.]
sirdarkhat: (But not this time)

[personal profile] sirdarkhat 2014-09-25 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I wouldn't mind either one, but I think tonight I will have something different from my usual.

[Why not? Although to be honest, Hershel would enjoy any tea offered in front of him.] The name's Hershel Layton. How may I address you?
teaspirited: (come have some tea with me)

[personal profile] teaspirited 2014-09-25 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
My name is Iroh, and I'll return with your tea as soon as it's ready.

[He bowed his head and retreated to the kitchen to brew up some fresh jasmine tea. When he does return, he's keeping the pot nice and hot with one hand and carrying a cup in the other. Iroh sets down the cup and carefully pours out the tea for him.]

I hope you find it to your liking, Hershel.
sirdarkhat: (Closed your tired eyes)

[personal profile] sirdarkhat 2014-09-25 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you. [The tea's fragrance reached him before he picked up his cup. It was a pleasant fragrance that he was sure he was in for a treat as he took a sip.]

...Mm. This is quite good. [He placed his cup back on it's saucer with a content expression on his face.] Sweeter than I would prefer with my teas, but some care and dedication has been put into its preparation. [He knows good tea when he tastes it.]
teaspirited: (it's freshly brewed with love)

[personal profile] teaspirited 2014-09-25 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Every pot I brew has a secret ingredient. Besides the care, what you are tasting is life's natural sweetener called love. No tea is complete unless it is made with love.

[He cradles the pot in his hands with a smile that echoes his fondness for the liquid within.]
