My mouth opened. “…That wasn’t narrating.” I tried to salvage what was left of my dignity. “‘The kettle is judging me,’” he quoted in a perfect imitation of my voice.

The water in the kettle was boiling. When it was boiled, there was a bubbling sound, and the white smoke rose. Blake looked down and leaned forward. He picked up the kettle and poured water into the Yixing clay teapot. He poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yan Lin, "Uncle Yan." Yan Lin glanced at the teacup in his hand and did not take it. He said indifferently, "You'd better call me Boss Yan."

Kira paced the large kitchen as she watched Agatha pour boiling water over the herbs she’d just combined and crushed in her mortar. “This will put a shield around the babe, should anything go wrong and they capture ye,” Agatha said as she covered the pot to let the brew steep. “Malcolm frightens I,” Kira said. “His evilness knows no boundaries,” Agatha said with a slow shake of her head, “and ‘tis me, not I. Malcolm frightens me.”

Jada smiled and greeted everyone. Mdm. Willis smiled at Jada. When she looked at Adeena, her gaze was filled with indifference. “Why are you also here?” Adeena remained calm.

It’s a top-quality Esilian teapot, and it’s the best to brew a cup of Esilian tea.”

"Didn't you dislike black sugar ginger tea?" "Are you Jessica? Wasn't black sugar and ginger the two things you disliked the most? Didn't you say that black sugar ginger tea was the drink you couldn't stand the most? Oh, you said that black sugar ginger tea cannot be called a drink, it's a dark cuisine!" "Jessica? Could you please tell me about the specific incidents at kindergarten when you were five years old and forgot to wear your underwear, if you haven't been possessed by anyone?"

Isabella thought, wishing she could melt into the couch. I did a great job getting the ball rolling, Zira smiling proudly. “Learn to read the room, dummy,” Nina said, shaking her head at Zira. Zira saw that she had made the room a bit more tense, so she sat back and looked at her mom for help. Zelda shrugged her shoulders, and luckily, Luna Bella cleared her throat. “Zelda, this is a very interesting teapot you have here. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one this unique,” Luna Bella said, gesturing to the teapot in the center of the table.

The Hale Fortress. The Living Room. Wednesday. 7:00 PM. The first sign that reality was collapsing was the tea. Vespera Hale (The Architect) was pouring a cup of Earl Grey. The liquid left the spout of the porcelain teapot, but it didn't hit the cup. It curled upward.

The bell above the door sounded like the start of something. Inside, Agnes was dusting shelves without looking up. "You're early," she said. "I didn't want to be late." "Good. Kettle's in the back. Make tea — black, two sugars." Yessica found the small kitchen. Found the ancient kettle, the mismatched mugs, the tea that came in a tin with no brand she recognized. Made two cups.
