"I don't think we have any outstanding contract" Chen says, with a sweet smile over her tea. 

She had blushed when Yue had offered it to her so kindly. Then she had blushed again when she had taken her first sip and remembered Hestia telling her that this type of tea only grew in the first budding of spring, yet Yue had offered it as if it were just a trifle. The latter, at least, she had been able to hide in the steam from her cup and a second sip, and had decided to settle herself to relax and simply enjoy the time. There was a great deal of trouble still coming due (worst case scenario: rumors reach Kikil, Yin, Ysel, and Qiu at just the right timing that they all arrive within moments of each other while the team is already engaged with the Scales of Meaning, who probably was a serious demon and not just a huffy traveler based on how things had shaken out). So, better not to think too hard about what could go wrong and just enjoy the tea and the twilight. 

After a few sips, Chen had made to move closer to Hyra. The wolf maiden obviously did know something of what was going on and had been ready to pounce on Yin, but since then she had mostly been protective of Yue and not in a mood to talk. Before she could do much of anything though, Cyanis had popped up with her silly idea of stealing a shard (in fairness, it [i]could[/i] work, but negotiating the deal would have taken forever and Chen was less confident in herself avoiding fox trouble than she was in stealing Ysel's shard shard in the first place). And then it was suddenly treefolk chasing fox in a little merry go round and Rose had interposed herself between everyone to round up the little two-tails. 

"Besides, I already dueled this huntress and found myself in much the position you are now, Cyanis, as you might remember. I very much doubt that my help would lead to anything but both of us trussed up together." Chen blushed again. That comment was just her being silly of course. She didn't [i]want[/i] that to happen while Yue giggled some more! Absolutely not! Besides, she had to investigate first and learn more before she got into the fun and games part. So, that was just a joke, of course, haha, she's just warm from the lovely tea right now. But...nobody look at her, okay?!
