Now that the tea had been served, Suhara was interested to know more about his guests. It was the time to ask them to introduce themselves to one another more formally.

"I would like to thank you all again for coming to this tea ceremony," Suhara spoke after taking his third sip of tea, "My name is Suhara Nakamura. I was born in Osaka, Japan but most of my life has now been spent as an ACME detective in San Francisco. It would please me to know more about each of you and where you were born."

It would please me to know more about each of you and where you were born."
"My name is Jade Ezell. I was born in Hawaii on March 6,1982 while my father was in the Navy and came to mainland since I was four along with my mother and my younger brother long story short I've been a free agent and amateur detective ever since and dream to help out ACME someday whenever they're stumped on a case." Jade introduced herself in front of Suhara and the others.

Invader realizes that she can't remember much but gets up to address the group nonetheless and quiets her fears.

"Hello to all of you" she announces " I am invader, I was born on an alternative earth in the year 1983 according to your measurement of time, .....and then grew up in a world called everdream. I have been on this world for.... 13 years as a prisoner.... in a not very nice place,.... I have recently escaped. The wonderful people here have agreed to take me in without question. I seek to repay them for their kindness until I can find a way back home, until then I am at your service. Though I do hope I can learn more about all of you, and forge friendships." Invader concludes and walks silently back to her seat.

Kidman bit her lip. As a Brit, it was her secret shame that she didn't care for tea but had continued to drink what she deemed 'leaves in water' so not to stick out any more than she already did. After a while she had discovered that she could make it tolerable by turning it into 'sugar in water with a hint of leaves' and was in the process of doing so with her current cup when the question of origin came up.

The girl frowned and said nothing as she tipped the sugar bowl into her diner mug, preferring the others to speak first while she gathered her thoughts.

Suhara smiled at the quiet girl, "No need to be shy. We are all strangers today, but we will not be when we leave."

He hoped his prodding would help her to speak up.
'Hmm...' Jade thought 'Is there a reason why Kitty won't speak up and tell about herself in front of all of us or is there a secret in her that she has to keep to herself for an important reason? I'll guess I'll never known.' as Jade quietly drinks her tea while waiting for anyone to introduce their own selves.

Colleen enjoyed her matcha tea while listening to each person's stories. She watched as the group gently pressed "Kitty" for conversation before speaking.

"My name is Colleen Slate. I was born in Hong Kong and adopted at age three. I grew up with my adoptive family in a small New England town by the ocean. I am relatively new at ACME and hoping to begin a long career, such as @Suhara's. Specializing in surveillance technology, perhaps."

As the guests finished introducing themselves, Suhara once again called for everyone's attention.

"I would like to give each of you a sheet of washi paper," the older man said, then he began to distribute colorful Japanese papers with various prints on them, "On each piece, you can write down a wish, much like you would when you blow out the candles of a birthday cake."

After handing each sheet of paper out, Suhara wrote on his own Washi paper: I wish to enjoy many more tea ceremonies on lovely days like today.

[Writers, go ahead and tell us what you write on your Washi paper. If you would like, describe the pattern and type of paper you received.]

Invader gazes at the paper, it is a soft purple with Lotus flowers in silver on it. She finds the color and pattern quite mesmerizing, and wonders about the meaning behind the flower shapes. The paper itself is delicate in nature and she hesitates to write on it. On the paper, she writes I wish to find a way back home.

Suhara Nakamura took another sip of his tea. He folded his piece of washi paper twice so that it made a small square to which be placed between the outer layers of his kimono.

"Thank you all for joining me today for tea," he concluded. "You are welcome to stay the afternoon, and please not forget to keep your washi paper with written wishes for luck. I hope they will all come true."

-end-

This concludes [Introductory RP] Green Tea (緑茶)
Thank you all for playing!

    ((OOC: So, I am still here (at least, while ACP is still a thing, then I have to tether my phone to my laptop, send it's internet to Ethernet to my router and setup my other laptop to access that... I managed it once totally by accident)... updating stuff I'm working on is not a fun process (if anyone checks my stories folder on my Google Drive) anymore... the laptop at my desk is old (Core 2 Duo, 2Ghz, 4 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate)... Chrome won't update, Drive won't work... I'm stuck using FreeFileSync to keep stuff up to datep things synced. I have plans of getting a job and having money to have something better (a doorstop is better)

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos). Posts like Hierarchy were started long ago, and meant as a guideline and not because I'm the voice of Sauron.

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
