The Portable Mostly-Self-Tending Zen Garden & Retreat (To: Juria, From: Ethan ~ Happy Christmas!)

Because it is portable, this is merely the reveal location of Juria's Zen Garden. And, as it is a Christmas present for Juria, only she and Ethan are at present allowed in. Though, if others are invited by either party they are more than welcome.

Ethan Addams stood outside the door to the room of requirement, hoping that Juria had gotten his note to meet him here. His Christmas present for her was rather much too large to squeeze under a Christmas tree. The wizard was indeed rather nervous as to whether or not she would like the gift he'd decided upon. He recalled Juria saying she moved around a lot from place to place, and so decided that if Juria wouldn't be able to go to a garden, then the garden should be able to go with Juria.

And thus, he waited. Inside would be the official entryway into the garden. And from then on... a magically-enhanced distance of tranquil scenery, complete with a small oriental-style retreat shelter. And, within the gardens, an abundant array of plant life with magical and medicinal properties. Of course, Ethan also included a book or three with information on said plants... even though he'd surely be discussing them with her in due time.

When Juria got the note, she smiled and headed over to the room of requirement. Juria walked down the hallway and saw that Ethan was facing the other way, looking down the hall. Juria smiled and silently walked behind him before he could turn around. Juria smiled and said in a pretty manner,

“Are you looking for me Professor?”

Juria’s hair was styled so that a little bit of hair in the front was braided and pulled back around to the back of her head and the rest of her hair was long. She was wearing a light blue t-shirt and black pants. She had on white sleeve-gloves that were spotless, due to a magic spell no doubt. Needless to say, she was very pretty today.

Juria smiled at the professor as he spun around to see her.

At the sound of a voice, Ethan jumped and spun around. His glasses had gone slightly askew with the rapid movement, and upon correcting their position he smiled to see Juria standing there. Then he took in her appearance, and couldn't help but find her stunningly beautiful as always.

"You look absolutely radiant today, Juria. And yes... I was hoping you'd get my note," Ethan replied with a grin. "Happy Christmas! I would've left a gift for you on your desk but... well, if you've a bit to come with me you'll see why I opted not to go with that," he elaborated, his grin growing ever wider. Ethan was rather excited about the gift he'd arranged for her... of course he got excited about a lot of different things but this was very different... and hoped she would like it.

Juria smiled at Ethan as he fixed his glasses, he was quite handsome.

“Thank you Ethan, happy Christmas to you as well, I am flattered but you do know you didn’t have to do anything for me, I am thankful to just be able to get to know you.”

Juria smiled sheepishly at the excited professor.

((Sorry it took so long for me to be on! I hope you can forgive me! XD))
