[Open] Let them drink tea

Who: Peach and YOU
What: Did somebody say TEA PARTY? No? Well *I* heard it. Come drink tea and chat!
Where: The dining area
When: February 1
Warnings: C for CUTE

Winter months were always dreary, especially if it meant being stuck inside to get away from the cold. Sure, some might not mind it, but others did. Luckily, there was someone around. Someone who had made it her mission to get people to smile and be happy.

That someone was Princess Peach.

Maybe you'd come for a snack, maybe you just wanted a quiet place to eat and read. Regardless, when you entered the dining hall, Peach was there, decked out in her finest, and she'd commandeered the space. There was pink everywhere. Ribbons, tablecloths, curtains, you name it. She was brewing pots of tea in elegant china, and she had plenty of blends to choose from. Plates were filled with cookies and cakes, that she'd spent hours baking herself. "Welcome!" she would greet people with a smile. "Please, come and have a seat! The party's just starting!"

He nodded in reply, but sat silently and watched the tea spread itself through the water. The change was simple--the mixture was added, but it just sat there, making no action of its own but changing everything around it. There was something deeply philosophical about that.

Finally he broke the silence, not knowing how much time had passed. "As with everything, the influence of doing nothing spreads."

"I...ought not to." The words were slow and cautious. "Yet it gives me time to think."

"You're a ruler of the people, yes?" He sighed deeply. "What do you believe is paramount to you? To them? Are they the same?"

"And what benefit does that grant? Happiness turns us away from the wider world, and we come to ignore its ills." A bit of weariness crept into his usually emotionless voice.

"And how many people choose the former rather than the letter?" Cyrus asked, voice returning to normal. "That is why we must act."

"Are the people conquering the world's ills, or are they merely enduring them?" He swirled the remaining tea in his cup. "The world must change. That is evident by the mere existence of strife. And yet so many would keep their heads down and never confront the forces keeping them that way."

"To change the world..." It wasn't a clarifying question but rather a reiteration. "We must cast aside the shackles of our spirit, shed the bindings of our past...But you wish for me to be specific."

A long exhale. "Very well. I have sought the power of two deities of creation. Palkia of the flow of time and Dialga of the expansion of space. Do you perhaps recall 'Bob', formerly of the school that was once here?"

"I see. Another of you was here before. I must bear that in mind."

He stirred his tea. "How do you propose we address these issues in society? You are a leader, so surely you must have answers of your own."

"So it is beyond the scope of a single leader. Do you believe that includes deities?" It was a short sentence but a heavily loaded one.

"As a ruler, you must impose your will onto the people," he reminded her, almost casually. "That is the nature of leadership. We must lead and thus others must follow. Yet we are not the end of the line."

"I do question, then, what your role is, if you do not see some degree of imposition as worthwhile. Otherwise you are simply speaking into the wind."

He took anther sip. "It is good. What tea do you find best suits your own taste?"

Cyrus understood it very well, in his own way.
"Do you find your nerves need calming often?" It was clear that it tied into his previous subject.

"Vacation...?" That was puzzling. "Having been ripped from our world, to this strange, abandoned place...and you view it in that light..."
