His eyebrows rose in an oh, hello, i'm not ruining your store kind of way, and they stayed there as she spoke. She had an impressive voice, containing the sort of subtlety that once again screamed magic at him, and he found himself smiling a bit even as he tucked his arms closer to his body. "Chai sounds good. I've had Earl Grey in the past, but only in bags. I have a tea ball as well, I've just never gotten that particular sort loose." It was less a ball and more a holey silicone manatee that hung off the side of his mug, but at least he was trying.
Chester swallowed. "Would you happen to be Eve Fitzpatrick, by any chance?"

A fresh pot of tea, along with some cream and sugar, was brought out some minutes later, with Eve and Clover not far behind. She took her place behind Renard's grimoire, a journal of her own slowly acquiring its own dense set of notes, and nicer paper with more attempts at spell circles and other spell shapes.
"You're cutting it a bit close, the full moon's almost here," she began while reorganizing some of her things. "But I can arrange you a way to the other side. Have you experienced any partial transformations, behaviors, cravings... that sort of thing?"

Eve smiled and nodded appreciatively at Chester's compliment: the gesture had an obvious undertone of well, of course it's good. Making tea was more of a way of life for her than an interest. Part of why she wanted the cycles to end was so she could get more fully back to it and live out a nice, long, boring life making it for herself and other people.
As much as she enjoyed her thrills, Eve seriously missed boredom nowadays.
"Jeremiah's been a friend to me for a long time," she answered, "in a way that makes him part of the family. He speaks highly of family he chooses. Maybe he figured I'd at least offer you something interesting." She paused for a moment to finish writing down an unrelated thought she was having. "I'm also something of a pagan, so the situation we're in has a meaning to me spiritually as well as intellectually and emotionally." Then she smiled again, adding, "Not that I suspect he sent you my way so I could convert you. We don't even really do that sort of thing."
