Something something, I'll make this pretty later, shut up.

[Tea shop, tea shop... Oh! That one!]

Of course. Like I said, it shouldn't take me terribly long as Candalera hasn't tracked anyone down around here as of late, so she's probably sunbathing somewhere.

[standless]

Of course! I shall see you shortly then.]

[He and Erina will be....

ready]

[Erina, meanwhile, waited patiently for Jonathan to finish his conversation with Speedwagon.]

Is he on his way, then?

[The decorations were hung and a cake ready (though she had to shoo Peda into his pokeball after he tried to eat the darned thing), now they only awaited their guest of honor.

Assuming he wasn't off on a very long walkabout.]

[standless]

He is indeed- he should be here at any moment, [Jonathan confirms.] I'm quite glad that the cafe was so willing to allow us to decorate here!

[puddlesoverdios]

It was very kind of them!

Naughty of Peda to try and eat the cake before he could even see it, though.

[As less fat-fluff as he'd gotten, the pachirisu apparently still had some weaknesses. She leaned over and kissed Jonathan's cheek.]

We remembered his gift, yes?

[standless]

Quite so... [A small frown at Peda, and a smile at his wife.] Of course! I've had it hidden away with the cake however, to add to the surprise. It should be nothing short of grand!

[Generally when he says he's on his way, he means it. Especially as his dear salazzle had found nothing of interest to keep her attention. She's been since stowed away in her ball and he's made his way to the tea shop.

And just casually opening the door as always, none-the-wiser to what's going on.]

I suppose it is getting colder out... [An idiot.]

[puddlesoverdios]

Surprise!

[Erina looks as happy as a clam to see him and pops a party cracker, wisely keeping the confetti from landing on their little cake.]
