Ai-Ling hates formal dinners. She hates them very much indeed. In fact, the only pleasure she usually gains from them is to try and sabotage them in as inventive a way as possible, while staying just out of actualy trouble.

This time, it's vitally important she makes a good impression on her future sister-in-law, so she's practically squirming as she dresses in her formal silks and does her hair up neatly and respectably. Then the need to do something other than what's expected gets too much and she makes a break for it. There's still an hour or so before she needs to be anywhere, so she heads straight towards the gardens, only opccasionally remembering she doesn't want to end up muddy and disshevelled.

"She'll love it," Sakari assures her, grinning brightly. "Mom and Dad both, they can't wait to meet you." She beams, already fond of her future sister-in-law and seeing no reason why she shouldn't consider her family already.

"You'll get to meet Panya, too. I bet you'll get along great with her."

"Miki says she's an unbearable brat," Ai-Ling says.

"So I love her already."
