It had all been fun and games for the most part as Rosalia lay comfortably on her bed, stomach resting on a soft pillow as she kicked her feet lazily back and forth. She had been pretty bored after finishing up her training, so she took a quick shower, threw on a comfy shirt with shorts, and crashed. Though the blonde had decided to check out the chat for shits and giggles.
At first she had been put into a sour mood in regards to the thought of dancing. She missed her friend Ameli...and remembering how the refined girl taught Rose to dance in the privacy of their room almost brought a tear to her eye. It hurt to lose a friend, but she could only hope that the girl was doing well...she just wished that she wasn't abandoned so freely.
But luckily the conversation shifted pretty quickly and she was beginning to feel like herself once again! A smile creeped across her face while typing, responding to Alice, Arno, and Nina in kind. Arno was someone she had hung out with before, doing ridiculous poses with and he was generally a fun dude to just be weird with. The other two though were more of a mystery to her though...Alice frequented the chat often and despite being a Faunus, she was pretty nice. At least she had a similar sense of humor to Rose which was peculiar. Nina was apparently a transfer and participated in Vytal, though Rose had been far too preoccupied during the tournament to study the other fights. Perhaps when she would have more free time she'd take a gander.
The blonde had teased Arno a bit too much apparently as there was a loud crashing sound from nearby that made Rose raise a curious eyebrow. During the convo, she brought up the idea of a tea party with stuffed animals...she admitted that it was a silly idea, but everyone seemed to be down. So the Vacuo native clicked her scroll off and flung her lithe body easily into the air and dropped softly near the extra bed in her dorm. The one that had previously been occupied, but now only a lone white bunny with a small fake sword clutched in his hand rested there. It was pure white aside from a faint red blood stain on the cheek and, as Rose gingerly lifted him up, she hugged him close.
"Okay bud, let's go see if we can cheer some peeps up. Sound good?"
She grinned at the animal and made her way outside of the dorm, lightly prancing toward the common area of Class Green to meet up with her fellow classmates and potential friends. It could be fun?

NINA RIVERS
Hark now, hear the sailors cry, Smell the sea, and feel the sky,
Well this was an exciting day, already.
She'd finally gotten around to moving into her new room at Haven, and no sooner than she'd started chatting online with her new classmates, than she'd met a bunch of new friends! Including a famous one! Totally sick! And now, moving beyond even mere friendship, they were supposed to be having a tea party, which was also going to be way fun.
She hadn't had a tea party before. Or been to one, for that matter. Or had tea, actually.
She was pretty sure tea was hot, like coffee. But different. Somehow. For some reason.
Anyways, it seemed like Rose had upset Arno somehow? Bit too much teasing, it seemed like, and then he started crashing around in his room, which she learned was upstairs, when all the noise started. Hell yeah! Learning! And now they were partying it up, with tea, partly because it would be a fun way to hang out, and partly to cheer up the shouty guy who clearly did not understand that muscly half-naked men were not something most people watched on big screens in public.
Except for the Vytal Festival, she supposed. There were probably some half-naked muscly men there, probably.
At any rate, Nina was excited. She hoisted up her giant whale plushie- easily twice her size- and squeezed him through the door, as she made her way to the common area where the tea party was supposed to be happening.
The first thing Rose would see of her was a pair of feet, shuffling in as the door flew open, to reveal a stupidly oversized, incredibly soft-looking, white whale. It was immensely fluffy, and its two beady black eyes stared down at her from the doorway, once his head squeezed its way into the room. And with just as much suddenness, the whale was tossed towards the center of the room, revealing the girl behind it, wearing an exceptionally cheery shark-toothed grin. She wasn't nearly as tall as Arno (not that she knew that, seeing as she was the second to arrive), but she towered over Rose by a whole nine inches, for the brief moment where she was still standing, before she dove face-first into her giant whale.
Admittedly, it was a pretty silly sight, made no less silly by the fact that she was wearing pajamas with little turtles printed on them, but she got the vibe that this entire thing was supposed to be a pretty silly event. So being extra silly, on top of that, was just par for the course. Scooting forward on her whale-shaped throne, she squinted as she stared at the Vacuoan across the room from her.
She kinda just looked like a red and blonde blob to the blue-haired girl.
But she had a pretty distinct scent to her. And she could definitely tell that this was, in fact, Rosalia Phoenix, because she definitely smelled like a champion fighter.
Or well, what Nina assumed champion fighters smelled like anyways.
Not to be so rude as to just lay there on her stomach and stare/sniff at the blonde girl, she decided to introduce herself as soon as she had ascertained the likely identity of the girl before her. "Ciao, amica! Rose, yeah? I think, anyways- you look kinda like the pictures, but like, further away, so I'm not too sure. I'm Nina! Nice to meet you, but not online this time!" Her grin brightened, revealing even more pointy teeth, as she hoisted up the head- do whales have heads? The front, of her giant plushie for Rose to see. "And this big guy's named Snorkel! Get it? 'Cause he's a whale, and y'know, whales breathe air and stuff, like how snorkels work..." She wasn't exactly sure how well her potential new pal was taking her sort of slow-rambling way of talking, but she hoped she was appreciative of the absolute comedy gold that she was convinced a whale named Snorkel was.
Okay, so she wasn't convinced either.
That's okay! They could bond over lots of other stuff probably. Like tea. "Hope I wasn't s'posed to bring any tea or anything, I don't think I got any. Never had tea before, actually! Excited, this is gonna be fun."
Now just to wait for everyone else to show up.
And hopefully, one of them was bringing the tea!
Let your soul and spirit fly, Into the mystic.

Always remember to smile!

Although she could not tell you how, Alice found herself laying half on and off the bed. Her head and shoulders resting on the floor in as she scrolls through her scroll. It has started off uncomfortable, but oddly it was nice now. That or her shoulders was going numb she thought as she wiggles side to side on her shoulders not feeling anything in the process. Yep… numb. That did not matter now as another ding from her scroll caught her attention again drawing it back to the chat. It was another produced day in the chat of teasing Arno that she was sure that Rose and herself might have taken too far.
Dropping her arms again the Faunus stared at herself in the mirror across the room at her ridiculous pose and let out a deep sigh. “I should apologize. What gotten into me...” She frowns while reaching for another stick of pocky to eat. She been in a mood ever since the festival, but that was not a reason to take it out on her friend. Even if it was just some light teasing. With another sigh, she rolled to the side flopping on the floor before rolling to a sitting position. Knowing Arno, he is in the common room watching his “comfort” shows.
However, another ding from her scroll alerted she had another message and was a bit shocked at it. “Tea party?” She asked a bit surprised to no one. She would have never taken Rose for that sort of person, but it seemed everyone had come to an agreement to have one with their stuff friends. Even this new Nina girl which truthfully Alice had made a note to ask to meet later happy to hear of another Faunus in the class. Thankfully, they gave Alice a pass on the stuff animal part as she at the time did not have any.
That did not mean she was going to show up empty-handed! Getting up she quickly moved to her secret stash of snacks and filled a small bag with the goodies. Pausing to check herself in the mirror making sure she was not a Total wreck at least. Other then a bad case of bed head she found it passable with an overly large shirt with sweatpants. She was dressed for comfort and the hell with looking good. With her little self-judgment out of the way, Alice slipped out her door for the short walk to the common room.
With a wide yawn, Alice walked into he common only the be greeted with a sight that she could not help before giving a surprising yelp too! After all, it was not every day you came face to face with a big smiling giant whale staring at you as you enter a room. Even odder there appears to be a girl on top of the thing.
“Ancestors! That thing about gave me a heart attack!” Alice said holding her chest as she regains herself. With a few years off her life now the young wolf sidestepped the mountain of stuffing waving her bag at Rose. “Yooo! I brought snacks!” Giving a toothy grin as she places the bag on a table before looking up at the girl on the whale. “And I’m guessing the Whale Master is Nina?” Stopping just long enough to pull another stick of pocky out to munch on. “I’m Alice. Nice to meet ’ca!”
Arno was kind of embarrassed he had sort of...kind of agreed to this? It was due to the events that were mostly his own fault. Now he had to get Arrats to lend him a member of the ever dwindling spare scroll brigade. Poor soldier, He will be missed. He had confessed to some things in anger that may or may not be his feelings about certain individuals and well. Here he was. It was...hmm. How to put this. It was a mobius strip of terrible, some sort of massive regurgitating wheel of embarrassment. The metaphor was perhaps not the best for this tea party but it made him feel a little less like he was massively embarrassed and more righteously indignant. He couldn't exactly fathom how this all came about but it had occurred and he was determined to make the best of it. Which is why he was dressed as he was. Like a complete doof.
Dressing casual wasn't his best look and leaving his hair without its traditional bandanna made him feel almost naked. He was wearing a white hoodie with the emblem of his favorite hero from Angels Of Flex: Glorious Pull-up. Which in traditional Angels Of Flex style was a single golden winged bicep with a halo above it. It was one of his favorite symbols and he loved seeing it. At least he had decent black jeans and a nice grey shirt under the hoodie. If you removed the hoodie he'd probably just look like some sort of incredibly muscular salary-man...er. Salary-boy.
With a...fairly regular wardrobe picked out, Arno had resolved himself to picking up a few things for this tea party. Even if he might get teased for it. He was sure at least one of the group would be interested in the exploits of Righteous Bison and the returning fan favorite, Burning Bicep. Or as the fandom, or brodom as it was referred to on message boards referred to him. BB. Browsing his collection of video recordings, he picked out two of his personal favorites. Episode seventy six: Muscular Turnabout: Couch Potato's Gambit and the controversial episode twenty two. This one was the first to depict the angel powers. The community decried it as too late but Arno thought the reveal was so spectacular he didn't care. Plus, this one had the first inklings of the 'Evil! Glorious Pull-up' arc that Arno adored. Glorious Pull-Up may have been an amazing hero but hot damn was he a good villain too. Plus, the music on this one was just killer. He wasn't a music head but Meltdown by MUSCLEBASS was truly an amazing track. One other thing he brought was a small deck of playing cards. Just in case they were needing more entertainment than the muscular divinity of Angels Of Flex.
With confidence dwindling and latent embarrassment gnawing at him, Arno made his way out to the common. Finding some of the members of the group already set up. "Er...hello everyone. I hope I'm not intruding. I'll just set up my things" With a quick, nervous wave Arno got to work. Moving over to the projector in the common. Lucky it was so big. Sometimes the frames were a little out of place on the older clips. Well. He hoped they worked okay at least. The Tea Party was a go! He just hoped to whatever god was out there that he didn't die during it.
