[they stare at him distrustfully. (maybe. it is really, really hard to tell with the veil.)]

There's always a catch.

[sageguidance]

What could I possibly coerce you into doing? Surely you cannot believe I am capable of making you owe me.

[guestservices]

Tch. That's just how it is. People act nice, but then they're like, hey! Fuck you! I acted like I was a saint doing things for the sake of doing them but now everyone owes me!

[sageguidance]

[ There's a pause as Alphinaud considers these words, then: ]

I... see you have been terribly wronged in your time. [ lmao. ] Pray worry not, Virgo. On my honor, I do indeed swear 'tis but only a friendly gesture.

[guestservices]

...

[they stare at him for a few long moments, as if wondering if he actually just fucking said that. oh my god. i wish to perish.]

...if you're lying to me I'll fucking eat you.

[sageguidance]

[ look, me too? me too. i'm crying.

But, yes. Alphinaud looks briefly alarmed. ]

Eat? [ WHAT ] I told you, I promise!

[guestservices]

...fine.

[they sip at the mead]

[sageguidance]

[ ... haaah... ]

What do you think?

[guestservices]

I don't hate it.

[sageguidance]

Hah—mayhap you will come around to it in time. 'Tis a widely popular drink from whence I hail.

[guestservices]

...where do you come from, anyway. [takes a long sip of mead.] Not that I fucking care. But tell me.

[sageguidance]

[ is this tsun behavior ]

The region of Eorzea, on a star called Etheirys. I would be surprised were you to know either name, however.

[guestservices]

[who knows]

Haven't heard of either of them, no.

[sageguidance]

As expected, but that is fine. As you may expect, I am not familiar with the vast majority of lands I hear others speak of, either.

[guestservices]

Hahahaha, don't get out much?

[rude. they sip at the mead.]

Why'd you call me here, anyway?

[sageguidance]

A pleasant chat, is all. I do wish to get to know the lot of you better.

[guestservices]

What do you want to know?

[sageguidance]

That... is a broad query, and I confess I had not expected to be asked so directly.

But, since you asked me, perhaps I may ask in turn—from whence do you hail? What is it like?

[guestservices]

Hahahaha! Curious, aren't you? That's not relevant.

[sageguidance]

[ damb... sometimes you come from a game where your npcs weren't so secretive, so it's kind of surprising! ]

Ah—well, I suppose not. Then... how do you like to spend your time? Surely there must be something other than work that you do around here.

[guestservices]

[there's a few moments where they just. laugh.

and then:]

I eat.

[sageguidance]

[ That laughing is just so... ominous... ]

A connoisseur of food, I take it! Or perchance you fancy yourself a culinarian?

[ and yet he presses on..... ]

[guestservices]

I'm a connoisseur! No one has better taste than me! Hahahahaha...

[sageguidance]

I've no room to say otherwise! Any dishes you favor? I could always go for something new down at the restaurant.

[ i hate this thread ]

[guestservices]

[



they just. laugh. and chug the rest of the mead they so rudely took from alphinaud.]
