NOTES: Drinking, swearing, bitching about troublesome patients, etc. Announcement post here

It has been a difficult few months for the Inquisition- terrible battles, dangerous missions, strange illnesses. The Healers are well overdue a moment of semi-organized rest and relaxation. Much as she had before on behalf of the mages nearly a year ago, Adelaide takes the time to arrange for said respite. The Orlesian healing tents have been cleared of the potions, bandages, and poultices in favor of chairs, cushions, and braziers. Lanterns and the odd throw of fur or knit wool warm the space. Having more time to settle in and become established- there is more room, more places to sit, more tables propped up for holding glasses and mugs. The space is open, warm, and inviting with an elegant assortment of copper mugs and porcelain cups set around flat side tables arranged with an assortment of teas, honey, and small pots of cubed sugar and carafes of cream bribed from the kitchen. To one side there are bottles of wine and a small keg or two of ale and mead, tankards and glasses waiting. There are dried fruits and hard cheeses, dried meat and hard crusted bread, butter and sausage and a few odd baked tarts here and there. Across the entrance to the tents there is a sign:

Must be a healer or a friend of a healer for entry. Unless urgent (imminent death) no patients will be taken at this time.

Tacked below was a list of rules:

• NO WORKING
• Tea and coffee are to the left, wine on the right, food in the center. Please keep things in their proper place.
• Don't hog the wine
• Don't hog the tea
• Don't hog the coffee
• Don't hog the food
• Serve yourself and whoever else is waiting for a glass
• If you finish a bottle open a new one, don't recork it for someone else to find
• Brew a fresh pot of coffee or tea when you finish what is available
• Clean up after yourselves

"Perhaps you should do just that," he says, grinning back. It is painfully obvious on how homesick Kirk was, and how much he missed his friend, someone he did so much with and probably talked to about everything. "Maybe you should find something here to bring back as a gift? You know, so he isn't so mad with you."

"Hmmm, maybe," he thought, shifting to lean back into Sam once more, looking up at the sky. "Maybe some sort of vintage. Spock might like an interesting rock or gem for study. Hikaru would like a plant. Chekov would probably like some alcohol too or maybe one of your games. Scotty would like just about any device you have," he listed them off.

The list of names and possible gifts has the mage turning every so slightly to look at Kirk better, brow raised curiously. Clearly someone had already been thinking about these sort of things. Course that isn't why his brow is raised - he isn't too sure who these other people are. "Spock? Checkof?"
