How To Be Civilized, Friday, Period 3
"So, today is finals, and you're going to get to practice everything you've learnt during this semester."
Seivarden stood in front of the class, smiling pleasantly.
"We're going to have a tea party. Make tea, serve it, have conversations about suitable topics. Don't forget that propriety can also involve elegant insults or occasionally stylishly do something slightly shocking. I hope you brought suitable gloves."
She glanced at Maeif she was there.
"I've asked a friend to help me out and give his opinion on how well you manage this." She gestured at Lucifer.
“Hello, hormonal little spawns,” Lucifer said, giving the class an idle wave. He was dressed to the nines, as always, and looking at the class as if he expected one of them to launch themselves at him at any moment. “Seivarden here has attempted to instill some kind of civility in you lot over the past few months. I personally suspect it was futile, but I am open to having you prove me wrong.”
Seivarden smirked at him. "Now you make me inclined to defend them."
Turning to the class again, she continued: "Choose someone to prepare and serve the tea and someone gets to pick a suitable tea set. And please help yourself to the cookies."
They were fish-shaped.
“And remember,” Lucifer said, oh so casually, “the choice of tea set can be the difference between life and a horrific death.” Beat. “But I’m sure you’ll all be fine.”
"That's exaggerating a little bit," Seivarden pointed out, glancing at Lucifer. "But it's still important. Let's not waste time though, get started."

Re: Have a tea party!
Nina's smile was bright as she sipped her tea politely with her incredibly pink, frilly gloves, and considered who to talk to.

In other words, striking that perfect Radchaai balance that, really, if it didn't just come naturally to her, she might as well shed her gloves and run wild among the savages already.
