What: Vivian's having tea in the city.
When: November 25th
Where: At a coffee shop.
Rating: PG.

Tea had always been Vivian's preference to coffee. Possibly a conformation to a stereotype given that she was English, but that didn't matter to her. She had tea with her breakfast at home so why should that change when she was here? Vivian wasn't going to change her routine too much, only tweak it a little to accommodate the environment she was in.

After tending to her horse at the stables, she took a trip into the city, wanting to explore it a bit further and see what she could come across. Vivian remembered Jo telling her not so long ago about the coffee shop there so she decided to check it out for herself. Except not go for the coffee.

Soon, Vivian was seated at a booth by the window, a cup of steaming tea on the table in front of her, accompanied by a rather delicious looking blueberry muffin.

Life was good.

She paused and watched her for a moment. The temptation to add and residents was great. "I suppose that's magic for you." She finally said.

Up until Paradisa, she'd never had much of a problem dealing with magic.

"Yeah. Magic doesn't exist in my world so I had quite the shock when I arrived here." Vivian replied, picking at her muffin.

She smiled a little. "I'm a lot more used to it but I can still be surprised by this place."

After another long sip, she reached to the side where the paper napkins lay and plucked one into her hand. She wiped her bottom lip and nodded, indicating she understood.

"Magic isn't uncommon in mine, though I haven't seen firsthand." She shifted in her seat. "Where are you from, anyway?"

"Somerset, in England," she replied. "Grew up in a nice house in the countryside." Vivian was luckier than most really.

"Where are you from?" Vivian asked a few moments later, taking a quick sip from her cup to wash down the muffin with.

Leaving the cup aside now, Kate paused for a brief second; maybe noticeable to the other woman.

"Gotham," she said. A beat. "In the States... but most haven't heard of it here, despite it being in Jersey." Of course, there had been many alternate Gothams she had learned about in the past year.

"Ah, I'm afraid I haven't heard of it, sorry. I don't think there is one in my world. Strange, yeah?" Considering that they were in a castle with magic and talking ponies, it wasn't the strangest thing.

"Is it a city then?" She added, a bit curious now.
