[Somebody is having a picnic on the Plane. Although, at the moment, the 'somebody' in question is nowhere to be seen. The red and white blanket is currently being guarded by a group of dolls. Their dresses are immaculate and their curls neatly brushed. Some of them are armed with parasols or wide hats, as protection against the nonexistent sun.

The picnic basket is closed. The curious, if they dare to investigate, will find that it has been filled with stale bread, overripe fruit and bruised cakes. A feast assembled by someone who hasn't had to eat for a very long time, and has only a dim recollection of what you're supposed to do. (The tea cups, lined up in a row next to the basket, certainly don't contain tea.)

One of the dolls has been turned away from the rest, as if in punishment. She's wearing a blindfold as well, making sure her blank china eyes don't peep out at anything they shouldn't see.

After a while, Drusilla returns to the Plane to survey her feast, and her guests.]

I hope you've been good, Miss Edith. I didn't bring enough for everyone, and you don't want miss out because you've misbehaved, do you?

[The vampire tilts her head at the doll in question, then nods.]

Good girl.

[She sits down, and picks up one of the cups of 'tea', sipping daintily. With a smile, she starts to hum 'A Teddy Bear's Picnic absently under her breath.]

OOC: I know I haven't been around much lately, and I'm sorry about that. This is my - and Drusilla's - attempt to get back into the swing of things at realityshifted. I've missed you all!
