5th Meditation ❋ The Land of Dragons [Action/Video] ❋ The Exotic Lotus Hotel!

[namaste_jagat]

[As the communicator clattered to the floor, the feed started. For some reason, Agni was standing inside this palatial looking Chinese building, with a mop in hand. At first he seemed not to notice that he’d lost the item as he continued to mop the floors]

Just a few more touches.. And this place will be ready.

[You could see pride in the way he smiled at the fine wooden floors, and as he went about dusting and cleaning. For a long time, Agni had been wanting to do something to help either restore the worlds or to provide shelter for new arrivals. His reason for his recent absence from the communicators could be blamed nearly solely on this project.]

Everyone has done such a fine job.

[He stopped his work in order to just take it all in. Just as he turned slightly to the left, he caught sight of the communicator]

Has, this been recording the whole time? [Surprise washed over his face as he kneeled to pick it back up] I do apologize for the inconvenience. [But.. While it was on he might as well explain]

Due to a few recent incidents I’ve decided to open an inn on The land of Dragons. [He walked along and gave a brief tour of the building]

Rates will be reasonable, and there are plenty of rooms available for those in need of lodging. The cuisine is mostly based on Chinese dishes, but we can cater to other tastes. Oh! There are hot springs just behind the inn!

[he should probably tell them the name]

Welcome to the Exotic Lotus Hotel.

[Private to Joruk]

If you have some free time, I would like you to be one of the first to see the hotel.

[He did value his roommatess opinion and wanted to know what he thought of everything]

[ sebastian remained silent throughout the entire transmission. instead he watched as his friend tidied up. is this the reason he'd not seen him. agni had fallen under the radar as of late and admittedly sebastian had started to grow concerned. he'd contemplated making a trip out there, but with this, his most recent feed, sebastian realized all his concern was for naught. ]

[ smiling, he found himself most impressed with what he'd managed to accomplish. ] It looks beautiful, Agni. [ nothing short of the truth. he'd come to expect these sorts of things from his friend. ] I wouldn't mind taking a look around, [ perhaps i can convince ciel to stay a night. i bet the hot springs would help him to loosen up. ] ...on my Master's behalf.

[You could have clued me in bro XD. Agni hadn't realized his absence had been noticed, but he wasn't planning on disappearing again anytime soon. He would have found Sebastian's concern touching.]

Sebastian! [He exclaimed with the usual exuberance] Thank you. I hope it promotes a relaxing atmosphere for any visitors.

Would you? [He hadn't been sure whether Sebastian could slip away from his job or not but he definitely would love for him to pay a visit as well! The fact that Sebastian was doing this in part for his master made him all the more glad. You need to dote on your master sometimes Sebastian 8D, you remembered!]

Yes of course. I would be honored if you would drop by.

[ nope. i enjoyed the little show. and that's a relief. sebastian missing seeing agni around. and that right there is the main reason it will never be brought to his attention. ]

I am certain it will be. ...from the pictures alone it looks to be relaxing. [ sebastian will have to show these to his master. ] But of course. [ my master and i will be your first patrons! ...uh, sure, let's go with that. for ciel's benefit. lol. ]

I will be there as soon as I get a chance and, as promised, I will relay most everything I see to my Master. [ after all that's been going on he doesn't think it will take much to convince ciel to take a small getaway. ]

[ gapes. ] Holy crap! [ oops. bites her lip and looks aside. ok... she couldn't help that. it was just a natural first reaction, because damn that place looked ritzy. ] It's gorgeous! and... and you're saying that it's going to be reasonable? [ skeptical. ] Define reasonable. [ she'd not mind getting out of that stupid inn for a bit. it was so stuffy, and it made her miss the little hole in the wall that she and riko called home. ] ...and everybody's got access to the springs, [ oh man. riko would love this! she loves this! ] I think I may have to book a weekend!

[The exclamation nearly startled him into dropping the communicator again but he managed to hold on to it. If the man disapproved of her colorful metaphor he didn't let on that he did. A good servant would never purposefully make a person feel uncomfortable.] Do you really think so? [His smile widened at the compliment] Yes. I understand that many of us arrive with nearly nothing, if I charged too much.. then it wouldn't be of much help at all for those arrivals. [He quotes her a price which seems ridiculously cheap.] Do you think it's.. too much? [And he was going to be supplementing the hotel's expenses with some of the earnings from his side job..] Mm, they do.[A pity that Riko wasn't here ] If you do we would be glad to have you, and would do everything in our power to make your stay enjoyable.

That's incredible, Agni. I'd like to visit it when it's open sometime.

[Video]

[namaste_jagat]

Thank you. [He slightly inclined his head to express his gratitude for those kind words] You should not have much longer to wait, my friend!

[Video]

[speakstojeffy]

Wow... Mr. Agni! It looks really good! Have you been working on this since we talked last? It's so nice!

I'm sure you will get a tine of guests with a place like this! Do you do parties and things too?

[Video]

[namaste_jagat]

[He nodded] I do apologize for my disappearance. I realize how it could have been construed. [People could have started to believe that he'd been swallowed by the darkness himself] Thank you Miss Sawanoguchi.

I had not considered that.. [He looks thoughtful] but it would be a simple matter to hold a party here. I suppose on the official opening day, I should mention that people can book parties here.

[wieldstheglaive]

The Exotic Lotus Hotel?

[It looks more like paradise but she doesn't say that out loud. ]

It feels like it has been so long since I have been to a hot spring. Is it a very traditional hotel? It might be fun to come for a visit sometime.

[Maybe even get some friends to come along!]

[Video]

[namaste_jagat]

Yes, the name was partially inspired by something I experienced here. It was really the reason why I thought to follow this endeavor.

[Some would say that event had been a nightmare, but Agni gleaned something positive from it and took this direction]

It is a bit of a mix. It's more in keeping with the world that it's located on but it is not so traditional that guests would feel out of place. [You don't have to use chopsticks, but you may if you want too, etc etc]

[Please do!]

[brbgettingwrench]

That must have taken a lot of work to do?

[Winry was quite impressed. Considering Edward can do something like that within minutes, she still enjoys people working at it from scratch.]

video;

[namaste_jagat]

Quite a bit in fact. [But he didn't want to sound like he was complaining] Oh- but it was an enjoyable sort of work.

[changingtheflavor]

[See Tohru, see Tohru still look amazed every time she sees something around here. It will be a while before she stops thinking everything is wonderful.]

Oh wow! It looks so beautiful. Also the hot springs sounds lovely, they can be very relaxing.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

[Oh Tohru, there are endless wonders waiting for you here]

Thank you, Miss. [He bowed accordingly] That is one of the primary goals of this facility. [Relaxation!]

[offrillsandswords]

[Lizzie as usual kept with her smiling face and if she could sparkle, she probably would be right now.]

Agni, it's so beautiful. Will you be having an opening ceremony? If so I will bring a present for it. [And if you don't... she'll still bring a present. It's win/win.]

[namaste_jagat]

[it was always a pleasure to hear from his English friends.]

Ah, but I'm afraid that it pales in comparison to your own smile Lady Elizabeth.

In a few days time. [He answered, though he would be glad to give any interested parties a sneak peak before then. Something like this was hard to keep to one's self.] That is most generous of you, but you needn't trouble yourself. [It would be too much to expect a gift from a member of the peerage, still if she insisted he would be grateful for it]

[wantstobeasinger]

It looks like a cool place. I might come visit at least once someday.

video;

[namaste_jagat]

[Cool?]

It's actually quite warm. [Your slang what is it] Especially the hot springs. Do you enjoy cooler climates?

Please do, we would be glad to have you.

[filchedfruit]

Sure, I'll come by when my shift with the horses is done.

I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.

[namaste_jagat]

[It hadn't been easy not letting something like this slip up in conversation. Not that it had been a great secret but.. Agni had wanted to be sure that it could be done before telling his friends about it]

I'll see you then.

[There would be tea ready and waiting, and snacks]

Voice; Private.

[mister_foppish]

[Pegasus hasn't been actively frequenting the network as of late, but...He never missed an opportunity worth having.]

Congratulations. It appears as wonderful as everyone has said, Agni.

I'm certain it shall delight all those who will be drawn to its gates. Which it would appear, are many.

I shall say a prayer for a fortune of blessing to be bestowed upon it, as well as on you.~

Voice; Private.

[namaste_jagat]

[It had been a while since Agni had laid eyes on this companion]

Thank you, my friend. [He saw no reason not to start calling Pegasus as such]

Perhaps one day you will also get the chance to visit it for yourself. I would be glad to show you around.

[handofdoom]

[ Albel looked interested, for once. he had been staying on that world for a while but he hadn't had a proper place to stay. this...might have been his chance to take advantage of this opportunity ]

How much?

[ video ]

[namaste_jagat]

[It was a pity that they had been neighbors all this time, and Agni hadn't realized it before. He quotes what seems to be an insanely low price for such a fine establishment.]
