[Color=salmon][b]Time:[/b][/color] Morning
[Color=salmon][b]Location:[/b][/color] Sorian Vikena Estate → Pancakes
[Color=salmon][b]Interaction:[/b][/color] Charlotte [@princess]
[Color=salmon][b]Mention:[/b][/color] only Calbert Damien...[hr] 

As moments passed while he got himself freshened up and ready, Lorenzo couldn’t help but feel his excitement begin to wane. His spike of optimism had been short-lived and by the time he was dressed, he almost did not want to leave the estate. He could surely get away with it as he assumed he wasn’t very welcomed anywhere. There was also the added bonus of Calbert not breathing down his neck about why he had gone out in public again. He puffed his chest as he looked at his appearance in the mirror and held an esteemed pose. Unfortunately, the radiant confidence died with a deep depressing sigh.

[color=salmon]“It’s only pancakes in the park. Probably with more of the common people. Yes, yes, of course. This won’t be bad at all. Besides, the park is close by and I can come home at my leisure. Good.”[/color] Lorenzo assured himself, literally as he was looking at his own reflection. With a confident nod to his reversed doppelganger, Lorenzo exited the room and proceeded in meeting Charlotte out front. Again he was last to leave. And again, his beloved daughter was looking as pleasant as ever. 

[color=salmon]“Behind you, Charlotte,”[/color] Lorenzo waved with a warm smile on his face. He noticed the basket, which he initially thought was food to go, especially due to his distaste for [b]pancakes[/b]. Then he thought it might be Kier… [color=salmon][i]He isn’t supposed to be out just yet![/i][/color] His eyes widened briefly before he narrowed them once he realized the creature peeking from the basket was not Kier at all, but a cat! [color=salmon]“A new friend, I see. Hello there.”[/color] He smiled at Champion, giving the cat a friendly greeting. It wasn’t a new thing for Charlotte to bring in the helpless. Sometimes it was a cat… other times it could be a person she pitied. [color=salmon][i]As long as it’s only cats she’s sheltering this time around.[/i][/color]

Seeing as the park was within walking distance, the three of them did just that. They simply walked and talked about how Charlotte had found Champion, her new friend. Lorenzo wanted to know more about Charlotte’s long night but the two had already arrived at the event. The scent of sweet batter filled the air, originating from a station set up with several cooks making pancakes and prepping toppings. There was a collection of rectangular tables set out for seating, covered in vibrant yellow tablecloths. It was plain to see it was not an event geared toward royalty, but it was a Sorian even nevertheless.
