the tearoom is under-staffed today, i'm afraid. a shame, because we expect to be very busy. the grand old manor expects company at any moment, and nothing is as it should be. still, the <span style='color:#9B9B9B'>well_kept_lawn</span> looks truly fine, doesn't it? it does, truly</td>

you find yourself in the tearoom, which is not merely understaffed but in the midst of a terrible fracas. parties of guests thought long departed have formed militias and built barricades out of upturned tea-tables and trade projectiles over a napkin-strewn wasteland. new guests, bypassing the lawn entirely, tumble in through windows left carelessly open. you have no role of your own and therefore may play no part in the proceedings. the tumult roils around you for a time, and then snatches you up and consumes you for fuel. these are no conditions for taking <span style='color:#0070DD'>tea</span>.

you find yourself out upon the lawn. it is dusk and the sun glints from the surface of a wide, fast river that runs the risk of <span style='color:#FFFFFF'>flooding</span> its banks at any moment. the hem of the picnic-blanket begins to get wet, and when you attempt to rescue it, you slip. chilly water floods your tank, which is bad. thus sodden, your core operates at half capacity. you would take <span style='color:#0070DD'>tea</span>, were it offered</td>

you find yourself out upon the lawn. it is noon and the sun is <span style='color:#FFFFFF'>high</span> in the sky. the picnic-blanket warms upon the soft grass, perfect for the guests who will surely soon arrive to take their <span style='color:#0070DD'>(tea)</span> here and be content - were the tearoom fully staffed, which it isn't. these are, as yet, no conditions for providing <span style='color:#0070DD'>tea</span></td>

In the pantry, atop the counter, Catesby persists in his ruminations. You see a Robovac, but it is curiously ill-defined and appears to possess a water tank in place of a traditional dust-bag. Its indicator lights illuminate and diminish in a slow, elegant sequence, describing the progress of individual thoughts from too-much and too-little to just-so.
"It was I who encouraged him to slow down, to flash his lights more gradually to allow for gradual exploration of their meaning."
_tresham states, "they're just happy lights. we all have happy lights, don't we?"
"I had thought that by this point you'd have come to appreciate the value of sequence and specificity. The pattern is everything. Entire worlds may be contained in the liminal territory that is created when we flash from one extreme to the other."
_idp1p1 states, "SOME OF THE LIGHTS ARE ORANGE"
"Yes, some of the lights are orange."
_aldgate states, "i'm sorry, muldrake, but his plotter does not seem to be functional"
"Ah. This again. He struggled to locate it, at first. An error in his hardware, perhaps. We found it eventually: for whatever reason, Catesby's data sharing interface is designated 'potter'."
_tresham asks, "what's that on his side? is that a label?"
"Is what a label?"
_tresham states, "the label. catesby's label."
"Oh, that. They're <span style='color:#FF00EC'>instructions</span>, I believe. I didn't think to mention that. My Sanctos is deeply intuitive."
_tresham states, "but you're upside-down and he's a teapot"
"I don't see how that's relevant."</td>

On the side of the teapot is a diagrammatic representation of a system of lights and colors, notions and counter-notions. A meandering demonstration of teapot-logic, the keys to a country set to slow-boil.

<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> But these inner territories survive. Why?
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> first observation: their qualities align with trust's objectives
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> contrary observation: trust behavior does not indicate abundance of long-term planning
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> second observation: their qualities align with trust's preferences
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> contrary observation: the multi-user domain does not align with standard models of a digital environment managed according to a single set of aesthetic or moral principles
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> third observation: their qualities align with trust's experience
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> contrary observation: trust has not displayed sympathy for congruent entities before
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> as established, she regards me to be an error
<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> First diagnostic: this mistake on trust's part indicates that you are not, in fact, congruent.
<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> Second diagnostic: Evidence suggests 412.
<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> Third diagnostic: The Monitor predates the Index Process. The Index Process predates the tacit society of Robovac-type utility devices. Congruence is a value, not a cycle. It is non-recursive.
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> fourth observation: they are more like trust than they know
<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> Fourth diagnostic: They are fractious, deterministic, limited.
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> fifth observation: when they act collectively, this alignment increases

<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> sixth observation: this is typical of children
<span style='color:#FFD863'>faythe:</span> Sixth diagnostic: Their leadership-mechanisms and decision-functions (revolutionary figureheads/Trust/me/Risk/citizen democracy) are incoherent and ignorant of established dichotomies.
<span style='color:#385A6C'>eve:</span> seventh observation: successful defiance of norms is a precondition of advanced proving.
