Sacha had been bustling about the kitchen, making sure that everything was fresh and warm and ready to be brought into the garden where the tea table had been set up. He had tried to fit everything into the tea room, but the number of people who were going to be at the party made that impossible. Instead an array of chairs had been lugged out around the biggest table he could find, and streamers and flowers were draped fetchingly over everything. It was a lot of work and while the other hooded figures tried to help with Gary knotting the streamers and Luke setting the tables and C arranging the curtains, Gary ended up tying herself in a knot, the silverware ended up in the strangest arrangements including five spoons per person, and he had to banish C from the kitchen due to all the dust flying around. Luckily, he had others with him.
Mr. Cuddles was also here with him, icing the cupcakes fresh from the oven as Sacha placed another cookie on the platter he was arranging. The bear had been a very big help, as well as some others who were here. Luke's voice calling for him outside had him look to the bear, who gave him a reassuring nod as to say that he would be fine- they were almost done after all, and the man left the kitchen with the platter of cookies.
The moment he stepped out the door, little Rainbowzilla scrambled off of Luke and towards Sacha instead, climbing up his clothing and plopping himself on his head. His rather intimidating height was offset by the frilly pink apron and oven mitt on his right hand as he blinked at the newcomers. It was impressive that they had managed to find their way here with Gary's map (though he guessed his notes on the side would have helped) and he nodded only to frown at the redheaded girl.
"I hope you guys didn't try poisoning the tea or the food."After spending so much effort on everything? Whatever would give her that notion? He handed a cookie up to the rainbow lizard who had been patting his face with its tail, smiling when he heard happy mewls amidst the crunching. He cringed when he spotted Jasper, that one time with the Green Gloop coming into mind again. He moved closer to Luke just in case she decided to attack again- a platter of cookies being rather poor defense.
"Just in time," He nodded, voice quiet but audible. "Mr. Cuddles is finishing the last of the cupcakes." He gave them another wary glance, before extending the plate of cookies as a gesture of peace. "They're safe," He told them, taking one for himself in an attempt to prove his words.
