( three things happen within the span of the next 30 minutes:

the first is, as promised, a recurring calendar invite sent some ten minutes after his last message (because he'd needed to flag down someone for assistance in puzzling out yet another function on his watch). set for a duration of an hour, it's simply titled TEA TIME, with wriothesley and neuvillette as the attendees, and a rather thorough description with various (official-sounding) notes that include the option to lengthen or shorten the duration of the meeting, the option to invite other attendees as needed, and the understanding that either party might be allowed to miss the meeting should extenuating circumstances arise.

you can take the man out of court but you can't take the court out of the man.

the second is a much shorter message sent some fifteen minutes after the calendar invite, briefly informing wriothesley of neuvillette's imminent arrival in approximately the next five minutes.

the third (and last) is the sharp knock at wriothesley's door, signaling the actual arrival of the man himself, dressed down in one of the outfits they'd purchased the other week, a small bag of pastries held in one hand. by way of explanation: )


It seemed rude not to bring anything.

( he'd been assured they were perfectly innocent pastries, so hopefully they aren't laced with anything. )
