Whether or not these zombies are due to the work of the town or an individual, I must say it is so terribly uncreative. If I recall correctly, it was nearly around the same time last year where a similar incident happened as well. Really, if you are out to terrify and maim us, do try a bit harder next time. A boring game of repetition is no entertainment at all.

And as terribly bored as I am, I will offer a great kindness in hopes that it will relieve such boredom. Do take note of it as I can assure you such a thing will not happen again. [Kindness only comes once in a million years alright!!] If anyone is interested, I shall be sharing tea at 1648 Albright Lane. It is as good a time as any for a good cup of tea and enjoyable conversation.

Of course, should you be attacked on your way here if you choose to come--well, I suppose that is simply not my problem. [And with that she hangs up. What a lovely young girl, right...]


Action: 1648 Albright Lane

[And true to her word, housemates and guests will be able to find Rachel in the kitchen sipping tea and having a pastry or two. The pot of tea is still hot, and there's a plate of other pastries on the table too. Clearly a zombie invasion is the time to enjoy yourself with tea. u_u]

[Bazett's jaw all but drops when she hears the offer.]

Tea? This is a crisis and you're going to have a tea party?

[What is wrong with this girl?]

[silpheed]

I would not call it anything like a tea party, but for all intents and purposes, yes I suppose I am.

[answerer_sword]

W-why? You do understand that the zombie might be able to track you or your guests? You would be a sitting target.

action; oh my god you really did it LOL

[the_girl_who_waited]

[ Sitting across from Rachel is one Amy with her own teacup in hand. After all of her travels with the Doctor, zombies really were the least of her worries. She needs something to talk about though, so may as well start there! ]

Is it considered 'normal' in this place for your neighbor to try to chew your face off? Doesn't seem very hygienic in the least.

OF COURSE I DID you didn't think i wouldn't did you

[silpheed]

Not exactly I suppose, but considering the fact that a similar occurrence happened around the same time last year, perhaps it would be better to consider it an annual tradition instead.

classy ladies drinking tea while chaos is outside aw yes

[the_girl_who_waited]

Next year, we should really plan a barbeque. [ Is she serious? Is she joking? Kind of hard to tell when she takes a sip to cut her tone short. ] Do you think any of those hero types are out there fighting them?

[birthmarked]

Do really you think that's a good idea at a time like this?

[silpheed]

I see no reason why it wouldn't be. [There is no such thing as a bad time for tea alright.]

[birthmarked]

What if one of them hurts you?

[splitthebaby]

It would be better if you came to the Church.

[silpheed]

I see no reason to drag myself all the way out there. [EW MEREM]

[splitthebaby]

[still 'mirin'?]

It's much more fun over here though. I suppose if you'd prefer to be alone...

phone

[breaking4thwall]

Oooh, that sounds a bit fun. Me might get a bit lost because Me've never been tho that street but is it fine if Me come?

[silpheed]

I did not say it was a closed invitation, did I? [SIGHING] It is permissible for you to come.

[breaking4thwall]

Me never said you said that. [ Confusion. ] Did Me?

[schooling]

A tea party, huh? Are you sure the smell won't attract even more zombies?

[silpheed]

Last I checked, these zombies only fed on flesh. Perhaps if they are polite, I shall be willing to share a pastry or two. [She's joking obviously but it's an amusing thought alright...]

[watchthenails]

A good cup of tea would be a great distraction.

[ Taki sounds a bit uneasy by the situation, actually, even if he's locked inside the house. ]

I am not sure how to get there at the moment, however.

[silpheed]

As I said, it is not my concern as to how you arrive here or if you are even able to. I shall likely be continuing this tea invitation for however long this event lasts though, so I suppose you may attend whenever.

piles rachel tags into inbox...

[encored]

[also action because of course he's going to take up an offer for tea who wouldn't

well, maybe sane people and probably people who can't just chuck any zombie that comes to close to the other side of the town. lucky for him (and unluckily for any zombie he runs across), he doesn't fall into either of those categories!

so he'll just be a-knockin' on the door to 1648 with a little package of tea cakes in tow.]

oh god i'm drowning in them...

[silpheed]

[IKR how could anyone pass up tea they must be heathens or some shit like that.

In any case though, Rachel opens the door and awww yis if that is a package of more tea food then Charles is the best guest she'll ever have.] Welcome. Do feel free to make yourself comfortable.

[Annnd heading towards the kitchen where the tea and some other snacks are waiting.]

[selematpagi]

[ WOAH. Thanks strange voice over the phone?

Yukko doesn't get a chance to ask for any more details, but once the phone clicks she's out the door. Tea? Awesome. Heck, she might make new friends and tell some jokes! It'll be awesome!

Yukko makes it to the door of 1648 Albright Lane in only a few minutes. She booked it pretty hard, so once she reaches the doorstep she has to stop and catch her breath.

Gosh her heart is pounding so hard!

She was running really fast to get here. Yeah. That's why.

She quickly knocks on the door. She brought nothing with her, the bum! ]

[silpheed]

[YOU BUM okay well no she wasn't expecting anyone to bring stuff over so she'll let it slide this time. u_u In any case, Rachel opens the door.]

Are you here for tea?

[kinship]

[Tea? Cain will go for that, it's better than worrying about the crazy zombie virus spreading across the town, right?

Taking a seat beside her, he ignores the pastries and goes right for the tea, giving her a smile.]

Is there an occasion?

[silpheed]

A desire for sanity among the mass hysteria regarding zombies is all. [Come on people is there really a need to make a big deal anymore.] Though I set this table for guests, I suppose I have enough to spare for you as well.
