"Oh, I'd love to!" Illi grins. "We haven't had a girl's day out in too long! Though, uhm," Her voice softens, "I know it's business. But still!"
"Business yes, but company nonetheless."

Amelie sits back, letting her back relax against her seat as she sets down her papers, closing their folder. She wraps two fingers around the handle of her teacup and hoists it to her chin, breathing in now-heated steam deeply.

"Strange place, but nice to see a friend."

 “Mhmmm. That is not the unusual part, but it does make figuring it out that much more challenging. At any rate, I do not know how much I’m allowed to speak of it in a public place. Tell you what—in the morning I will be heading to the Harmonium HQ to get some information on it. Would you care to accompany me?”

 “Some documents about an investigation. Nothing classified, really, just some interesting details. I’m trying to make some sense of it. It’s largely a report from one Akh Uur Hoon detailing a body and accompanying memories. Strange thing. It was burnt to a crisp and had no jaw.”
Illiam'iira blinks. "Oh. Uhm. The jaw thing isn't strange. That makes resurrection and communication more difficult. Can't talk without a jaw, even if someone raises you. Costs a lot to fix that so most people won't bother. Whoever did that really didn't want anyone finding out about their identity, or... well... whatever else their victim knows."

A breathy chuckle comes from Amelie’s throat, watching Illi heat her tea.
“Ever helpful.”

She nods as Illiam skips up and goes to get tea and, of course, cookies. Upon her return, Amelie responds.

 A bit of a frown spreads over Amelie’s lips, pursing the corners as her brow furrows.
“You know honestly I do not know. Every time I have come here I just ask for a pot of white tea. It is quite nice, but I have never looked at any other offerings. So I suppose you could inquire if you wished. And of course you are welcome to some of my pot, though it has begun to grow a bit cold for my liking.”
"Let me fix that for you, dear." Illiam'iira first waves her hand over Amelie's cup to heat her tea, then lifts the lid off her teapot to do the same for it. "I'll be right back!"

And so she hops up to go order some tea. In a minute Illi returns with a teacup and a smile. "I'm getting rose tea! And cookies!" She plops back down into her seat. "Whatcha readin'?"

 Illi rarely had trouble acclimating to such things. She hums happily as she leans over to rest against Amelie, little legs kicking up n down as she nuzzles the woman. "Mmhmm! I always do!" Like a happy little dog she sighs, content. "What tea would you recommend?"

 A polite smile stays on the woman’s face the entire time her friend speaks. Amused, she takes a breath before responding.
“I’m not surprised. Sounds like you’ve made yourself comfortable immediately with the weirdness of this place. And maybe even brought a little of your own.“

 Illiam blushes. Darn everyone being taller than her!!! But still... it's Amelie... Amelie gets special privileges. She's special-special, after all. The drow scoots to sit right by her friend. Her smile's bright as she is while she speaks. "Uhm, I've been dancing, and went to the plane of pure chaos, and I'm trying to research slaadi! I've met a bunch of different people too, and been exploring the city. There's so much here, it honestly boggles the mind -- it's like mixing up every port city on the Coast! There's spas and libraries and singing fountains and weird gardens and like, an entire building where you can just go perform and party!"

 "Set, let us talk. Gabriel .. I have met him. The other Mercykiller on the investigation, I believe. I have not yet had much chance to speak with him. As for what I've been up to, I do not much too much more to share than what I have already. I would be interested to hear what you have gotten up in such a short time here, little Illi."
