[ grandpa your knees. they will walk with him easily to the elevator, and even hold out an arm gallantly like they're opening the door for him when it opens. ]
I am very fond of drink. [ they say this cheerfully. aren't you on duty, aquila? aren't you? ] You?
[ this is said with the tone of someone who likes a little gossip, very playful. they'll continue this gallant act and hold the bar door open for jiji as well. ]
You were buried in the ground, I feel like that's worth asking over! To be fair.
Oh my... I worry what I must be doing to cast such high expectations for myself. I might disappoint, you know?
[but he's happy to be called jiji! he's also happy to sit at the bar, waiting to be served. he makes an open-handed gesture:] I shall have whatever you are having.
But you are correct - I was previously known as Lune in the village.
There's an old saying - "a goat in a tiger's skin". I think maybe you're the other way around, though.
[ they hum, amused as they say this, and wave to the shadowy bartender! it nods, and then turns to pour two glasses of a red wine of some kind. ]
So, got to do a lot of observing that way, I take it. [ they knock off a cheery half salute to the bartender, and then pass over the glass to jiji, and then... pause.... ] ...Oh, hey. How's your face?
It is a face. Ercnard Sieghart asked the same thing, despite being the cause. Though I did hear that some of those who went on expeditions were able to see some of their injuries healed in exchange for a price.
I would hate to take up anymore of Shinobu Kocho's bandages, so might I inquire again for what that price may be? [a beat] And perhaps, something for my hands as well.
[they got a little torn up when he was. unearthing himself.]
aquila laughs at their own joke, because of course, but, as they're lifting their glass, they nod. ] Oh, yeah. Someone had to turn you down, right? We couldn't really start offering tasks until the boss gave us the OK.
Do you want bandages, or do you wanna get healed up some? Those are two different things. Either one'll cost you something.
I can heal you now, and you've got to do a task for me. You get seven days to do it, but it's better that you get it done as soon as possible, because it frees me up to heal next week, in case shit goes bad again. If you don't get it done in that seven day frame, the heal expires, and your injury opens right back up.
Also, you can talk about your task in this case. If you want to - you can tell people that's why you're doing whatever I tell you you've got to do. The healing ones are a little different than the ones you might do for Room Service.
[ maybe they will get to find out soon! who's to say...........
they tilt their head back at jiji, birdlike. ] Hmm.
Lemme heal you first. No backing out.
[ since jiji has agreed, aquila lifts their gloved hand, and presses it very gently to jiji's cheek. their hand is cold through the glove, at first, but it warms with a soft, warm light a moment later. jiji will find his injuries on his hands as well as the cut on his face to be healed completely! (though if you would like jiji to have a sexy face scar now, thats up to you.) ]
As for your task....
[ they
start to give off a very certain vibe. the vibe is Gremlin ]
Dress yourself in an outfit from the costume closet. No help from anyone else. Wear it out in public tomorrow, or some other time this week.
[ they match the teasing tone with fake offense of their own, lifting their glass to clink it against jiji's and... pulling out the straw he gave them to put it in the wine glass... and then start drinking the wine out of that. it's hard to be a veiled npc. ]

[he will just start to walk in that direction. they're going to use the elevator because his knees are bad]
Are you fond of drink, dear Aquila?
no subject
I am very fond of drink. [ they say this cheerfully. aren't you on duty, aquila? aren't you? ] You?
no subject
but he will laugh at that]
I like it more when in jovial company, so I believe this will be quite fun indeed.
no subject
[ ding! up they go.
the elevator lets them off on the new floor, and aquila seems perfectly content to lead the way. ]
How're you feeling? I kinda think you might need a drink, after the weekend you had.
no subject
[mikazuki will follow after easily, a smile playing across his face]
Oh, how can I feel anything but spoiled, having so many people ask after me? This old man may become all too comfortable.

It is more enjoyable - for me to watch others fuss over one another.
no subject
[ aquila has just decided to call him jiji for real now but that's fine. they're heading over to the bar pretty much immediately. ]
As for watching, I guess I get that. Probably suited you pretty well when you were... what was it, Lune, right?

no subject
[but he seems amused.]
Your boss... I see, I see.
Healing, if you would. Repairs are easier for me to understand than medicine.
[s. swords.]
no subject
[ that's very wry.
and they nod! ] Alright, here's the deal.
I can heal you now, and you've got to do a task for me.

That all sound good?
no subject
[he tilts his head]
Might healing be the only type of exchange that can be done for a task that is not listed in room service, or can other requests be made?
no subject
Everything here costs something, one way or another. It's important to keep that in mind.
no subject
[he looks like he wants to laugh so fucking bad dimitri did so much work for jiji's trees and then never got to find out what they were]
Very well, very well. I shall do so. And your task for me, dear Aquila?
no subject
they tilt their head back at jiji, birdlike. ] Hmm.

[ they then gently slap pat his cheek. :3c ]
no subject
anyway mikazuki doesn't seem to mind these gremlin vibes. he begins to nod, but then he gets slap patted on the cheek
for a moment, he appears surprised]
Oh my, oh my.... I suppose you do have permission to touch a National Treasure.
no subject
I know my way around a weapon. [ hm, ] Also, I can't heal you if I can't touch you, Jiji. Just how it works for me.
no subject
[no he's clearly teasing]
no subject
[ they match the teasing tone with fake offense of their own, lifting their glass to clink it against jiji's and... pulling out the straw he gave them to put it in the wine glass... and then start drinking the wine out of that. it's hard to be a veiled npc. ]
no subject
You have picked an interesting flavor... I am still growing accustomed to other drink, but I do not dislike it.
no subject
Oh yeah? You and me both. What are you used to?
no subject
Sake, with fun company. Though I prefer to take my drinks underneath the moonlight.
