You, too, huh? [ Sylvain’s smile turns a hint crooked at that, because that sounds familiar. ] At least being here offers us plenty of unique opportunities to do so. One silver lining, at least.

[ There’s more than one, for him, but he knows some of the Summoned aren’t so happy about being here, so he always dances carefully around that line.

But he can’t help but grin at Jaskier’s eagerness, his own expression brightening a little. Other than Claude and Hilda, he hadn’t really had a tea buddy here since Caitlyn vanished. He’s missed it. ]

Really? I didn’t realize there were others here who were working on it, too. It was a bit of a hobby of mine, back home. And tea time… was often something special. [ He blamed the Professor for starting that particular trend, although is fondness for tea had certainly stretched longer than just that. ]

Cadens’ selection isn’t bad, but it could certainly use some variety. I’ve managed to mimic a few I remembered from home - there was a pine one I was recreating for Claude that I had to spend a few weeks on and get ingredients from Nocwich, and a berry rose one for Hilda, but the rest I’ve just been sort of poking at when I’m bored. To be honest, starting with all new ingredients has left me feeling a little overwhelmed and not really sure where to start.
