octopus's garden;

[There's a fishbowl sitting on the table over here, and if you stop and look as you pass, you'll notice there's a small bottle of something labelled "drink me!" next to it. Should you choose to follow these cryptic instructions, you might find yourself miniturized and now inside said fishbowl. Stranger still is that though underwater, you will find it quite breathable. There's a quaint little table inside this fishbowl too, and what appears to be a set up for a tea party. The only occupant at the table right now is Kairi, who has apparently been assigned her Halloween costume and placed in an appropriate environment.]

[Magic water is AWESOME! And apparently doesn't have any effect on this one for a change. Once miniaturized and inside, he's heading over excitedly.]

Kairi! Look! I'm not dead!

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[She smiles as soon as she sees him, looking quite pleased that he's not dead.]

Good. I'd have to give you a right scolding if you scared me like that.

[preflame]

I'm not sure if I should be more afraid of you or my mom.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Well, someone's got to look after you when she isn't around.

[She tilts her head in motion to one of the chairs at the table.]

Tea?

[preflame]

Yeah, yeah, I know.

[He takes a seat and nods.]

Yes, please.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[She pours some from an ornate-looking teapot into a similarly fancy teacup.]

So do you make a habit of listening to strange bottles that say "drink me"?

[preflame]

[Hi, you might recognize this as the "knowing, wise older sis smile".]

Well, I can promise you this stuff won't shrink you any further, if it helps.

[And she sips from her own teacup as proof.]

[preflame]

Oh okay, good.

[Sipping is for pansies, he's taking a gulp.]

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[Stop that, there will be no tea-gulping at this table.]

Oi! Manners, Roxas.

[preflame]

[He stops and pouts at her.]

But--

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Do I have to teach you how to drink tea like a normal person?

[Kairi, your British is showing- I mean ugh, boys.]

[preflame]

Fine, show me how you do it.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[Watch carefully- she picks the cup up gingerly and takes a small and dignified sip.]

Easy as that.

[preflame]

[He mimics her, only does it obnoxiously with his pinky up and making a funny, pursed-lip face as he does so.]

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[Her lips are pursed too- but it's part of a narrow-eyed expression.]

Don't make me throw the tea kettle at you.

[preflame]

But that wouldn't be proper.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Not like you would know if it was or not, mister-

[And she gulps down the tea like he did previously.]

[preflame]

[He just bursts out laughing at that.]

That was a pretty good imitation!

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Don't get used to it.

[Enough tea, time for some of those nice pastries on the table.]

[preflame]

[IS THERE ANY APPLE STRUDEL.]

Did you make this stuff?

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[Why yes there is! Shocker!]

Nope. It was here when I got here.

[preflame]

Did you have to drink that stuff too?

[He takes one and noms on it. Yessssss]

[Someone is tapping on that fishbowl curiously with his finger, having discovered it a moment ago by accident. He hasn't found the bottle yet, but any instructions would be ignored anyway since he can't read them. No, he thinks perhaps there's a fish that suddenly appeared.]

how did I just see this now...

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[No fishes here, just a tiny girl who is very alarmed at the sudden tapping on the walls of the fishbowl. As far as she can tell, there is a giant Riku who has discovered her miniature tea party.]
