Just for the record, I did not come up with this idea just so I could make a pun. Originally I was going to have the Martian girl having tea with just the rover Sojourner (a.k.a. the cute tiny one), but switched it to Curiosity and Spirit so I could have more than one rover at the party, since those two happen to be in relatively close proximity to each other. I should also note that I was planning on doing this long before news got out that Opportunity, Spirit's twin, had shut down (Spirit itself got stuck in a sandtrap and had to end its mission years ago).
So I guess what I'm trying to say is that this is simply a tribute to science, exploration, and the people who think heavy-duty space machines are adorable (which yes, includes myself).
