Meet and greet

Tenshi's chin nods at Dusk's thank you. She appreciated that the girl had manners which meant that Artorias and surely their mother taught them well. Dusk's next words and sheepish smile have her chuckling quietly. "Ah, a girl who knows what she wants," her smile is warm and motherly as she takes another sip from her tea. "The thing about wine or tea is that it has nothing to do with the actual drink that matters," she pauses, her icy gaze lifting back up to the girl. "But the patience it takes to make it," Tenshi winks before moving toward the fire and motioning for Dusk to join her. The men could converse in all things men.

"There are many different types of beverages that exist in the world. No one such flavor is better than the other," Tenshi pauses, looking to see if Dusk is listening. "That is why the type of drink doesn't matter. You can put wolfsbane in the tea and if done correctly, whoever you give it to won't notice until it's too late," the dark smile on her lips curls slightly at the edge of her lips. "What is important about the making of beverages is the patience that goes into it. Knowing how long to mash berries, at what point the herb must be cultivated, how long to boil the water, to let the liquid sit. If one is not patient, one will end up with a disgusting concoction," she pauses, gaze moving from the pot with simmering water back up to Dusk. "With patience, just like in fighting, if one waits for the right moment, one will always be successful in their endeavors," Tenshi raises a brow once more, wondering if Dusk understands what she's saying.
