Who: This and That
Where: Alfred Tea Room
When: Day 211, morning (forward dated)

[ Today the café has been transformed to look a little like a one-story castle, if a castle was made entirely of pastries: the building's exterior has big, pastel-colored cardboard and plastic to make the building look like a strawberry shortcake, and the shrubbery nearby has been covered with smaller cake platforms. A waffle cone ice cream structure sticks out at the top, with a window to imply that it's a "tower" in this "castle". All around are silver and resonant blue balloons, and a large banner that hangs over the doorway, with "CONGRATULATIONS, THAT" written on it.

That? That what?

Entering the "castle", you'll see the interior is still largely the same, but the flooring is now cake patterned and there's a lollipop "fence" on the wallpaper; the chairs have been replaced with macaron-shaped ottomans, and the tables themselves look like they could be made of gingerbread. The food provided, unsurprisingly, is all sweet and sweeter and sweetest, tea-time snack sized cakes and pastries and cookies on every platter and Earl Grey tea (and milk and creamer and overflowing bowls of sugar cubes).

Where there was once a solid wall is now a peppermint cane lined door with a peppermint swirl "window"; a blue carpet rolls out from that door to the center of the café where there's a microphone and a very special princess . . . !

Unlike God's graduation, only Song's and Silence's CR have been sent text invitations (in kirakira sparkly font and emojis), although it's pretty obvious to see that there's an event happening at the café today, because, yanno. ]

[Holy shi----!

(Good thing he's not going to remember this.)

If he's able to catch him at any point.]

You working two jobs now?

[ bringing up a finger to his own lips, as though to shush him ]

Sorry, have we met?

[Is this what we're doing? Okay!]

My mistake. I thought that halo looked familiar.

[Whether or not he actually does have a halo...]

So.

I see you took my unitmate, or should I say former unitmate out on a spa day. How thoughtful of you to help her get ready for the occasion.

[ incidentally he does have a halo on ]

She just looked like she needed it, you know? A pick-me-up, something nice for her to get comfortable with her new body.

Another part of Heaven's Blessing?

My, my. Aren't we spoiled?

He anoints my head with oil; my cup overflows.

[Well he's certainly not repeating the line after that!

Time to go backwards. Also this is way more iconic.]

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.

That isn't right. Aren't you familiar with the Bible?

"Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

What can I say? I'm one of those types who reads books out of order.

But I'm sure she---

[And he gestures to Song]

Appreciates the sentiment. And the gesture.

...

I don't suppose you could tell me if she's going back to her home or not.

Don't think her happy ending could be back there. Do you?

No. But the happy ending of others---

[Glances over at Shine]

Might require knowing where she is going.

Hmm . . .

I'm thinking a town in the countryside. Big enough that she can have her entertainment, but small enough that life is peaceful. Sounds like she's interested in opening a bakery, too.

So, in other words.

Sweet, quiet normality.

...

So what does that mean for the last of the triplets?
