guestservices | AUDIENCE FOR: Diluc Ragnvindr

You're very welcome. [ he smiles ] I'm always free to mix drinks, when you also have a moment.

[ canopus approaches vulpecula, sniffing at their leg, then sitting to stare up at them. ]

Oh! Thank you. We have to wait for you to come to us, but... does this mean I can look forward to more drinks if you come to see me again?

[canopus... cute.

they kneel down, one hand out as if to pet her - but then pause and look up at him.]

Is it okay with you if I pet her?

It does, yes.

[ note to self: invite vulpecula out for more tasty drinks.

he looks back down at them, giving a nod, along with a small smile.]

Go right ahead. Canopus very much enjoys the attention.

[ she is just going to bump her head against their hand, not really giving them a choice. lol. ]

Great! I'll be looking forward to it, in that case.

[they sound excited!

even more exciting: canopus bumping her head against their hand. they make an involuntary aww noise and pet her a few times before scratching her between the ears.]

She's so cute! Hee hee. Polaris is the same way, but I'm sure you know that already.

[ cute...their excitement just makes him smile more. he really does just enjoy making people happy with different kinds drinks. also! he's happy to see them so excited over canopus?? it's just cute, man.

canopus purrs loudly. ]

You're right, he is. It's rather funny, Polaris and Kaeya are very similar, thriving on the attention and affection. While Canopus continues to be the more outgoing one, between us.

[ she looks over at diluc, stares, and goes back to bugging vulpecula for pets. ]

[canopus can have all the pets she wants. vulpecula will give them.]

...doesn't that just mean you thrive on attention and affection, too? But you're better at hiding it than Kaeya?

[ they have a very happy cat on their hands!

diluc's bunny ears droop a bit, at that. ]

I-...[ he sighs. embarrassed by this call out. ]...I suppose you aren't wrong.

[oh. oops.]

It's not a bad thing! ...I like it too. I think everyone does, really.

Is that so...

[ the freckles on his face light up, forming into tiny suns, shining brightly! ]

Thank you.

[ ????? ]

[their bunny ears give a little twitch.]

You're welcome!

[ :3 ]

So... what brings you to see me today?

Ah, nothing in particular. I figured we could go for a walk, enjoy some tea, if you have the time.

[ ear twitch ]

I know it's not usual hotel business, but even you all deserve a break, every once in a while.

I've got time.

[they sound like they're smiling.]

Thank you, Diluc. That's very thoughtful of you.

[ kisses this bee on the head, thank you for this backtag ♥ ]

Lovely. [ he'll offer his arm to them, like a true gentleman. ]

Ah, don't mention it. The Watchers from before enjoyed getting away, even if it was only a moment, I thought it might help you as well.

[ he'll lead them to the courtyard! ]

[they take his arm and follow him to the courtyard!]

That's right, they did, didn't they? ...according to the files. Are you going to be taking us all for tea, or am I just lucky?

[ :3 ]

[ he smiles, a bit of a laugh with it. he nods. ]

They did. And perhaps I will, at some point, but for now you are the lucky one.

[ the tiny suns along his skin dance, happy!

he'll pull a chair out for them to sit, before taking his own seat across from them. ]

Hee hee! Lucky me, then.

[they take a seat, then settle in as he sits down.]

What kind of tea are we drinking?

Perhaps something on the sweeter side? Though if there's a particular tea you prefer, I'd be happy to try it.

[ canopus will go over and nudge vulpecula's leg, rubbing against it. ]

Sweet teas are okay with me!

[

they are distracted by leaning down to pet canopus, since she's rubbing against their leg.]

[ he smiles, letting them get distracted while he orders tea for them. some osmanthus flower based black tea! it has a peachy taste to it~

meanwhile canopus soaking up the attention, pressing her head against their hand, loud purrs rumbling. ]

[yummy! they will gladly sip at it... once they are done giving canopus lots of affection.

...

well, no. they will maybe never be done with that. they pick canopus up and settle her in their lap, that way they can pet with one hand while drinking tea with the other.]

[ canopus is satisfied with this, settling happily in their lap. soft purrs...

diluc takes a sip of the tea, then smiles. ]

She's grown rather fond of you, in such a short time. That's a good sign, I'd say.

She's very friendly!

[canopus is such a good kitty. vulpecula is endeared.]

I know you two don't have... um, the same connection that you did before. But maybe this is a sign you're growing fond of me, too? Hee hee!

[ :3 ]

It's true, we do not, which has been a bit strange to get used to.

[ he looks at canopus, who looks back at him, and he smiles. ]

You may be onto something there. We'll need to have more visits, like this, to really test that theory.

[ he lifts his teacup up in a "toast" motion. ]

[they giggle and clink their teacup against his.]

We'll have to! That's the best way to figure things out, right?

[ cute... ]

That's right. Especially since there is so much to figure out.

[ runs to slap a new audience down. feel free to drop this one, in favor of the new one. kisses bee. ]
