Clifford gestured to the some of the untouched foods, tilting his head and smiling kindly, “Please have some of the sweets, Miss Hakuran. If there is nothing you are urgent about telling me, at present, then please take your time. I am sure…we can discuss the details after.” Hestitating for a moment, since standing was the first position of readiness; he took a seat across from Hakuran and poured himself some tea. Sweet hibiscus, minor tartness balance by some minor natural sweetness, a good and tame scent. A half spoon of sugar, and a wedge of lemon squeezed into it…he took a sip, and savoured the nicely flavoured hot liquid. Lowering the tea cup and saucer back onto the table, “I am a mite curious, why did you choose a servant such as I?”
