guy cecil tales of the abyss affiliated with citta-alveare housing: l-1 rank: citizen bartender at club euphoria

[motherswake-deactivated20221106]

I’m back!

Anna hadn’t known she was gone until moments ago, but the familiar smell of antiseptics fill her nose and the memories rush back. Scientists, Hive City, Alliance… her friends! It’s only been a few days, from her perspective at least, but what if it’s all changed while she was away?

She races out, a properly sized Noishe greeting her this time, and looks over her housing information. L-1. Bummer, she’ll miss living so close to Alliance and the Shopping District, but Sector 1 isn’t bad at all!

A few others are gathering around, and among them is a familiar face… Blond hair, tight pants, warm grin, carefully avoiding the women in the crowd… she knows him… His name, his name… it’s…

“Guy!” Anna yells, waving excitedly.

[gailardios-blog]

Disoriented as he is feeling, the sound of a familiar voice snaps Guy back into the moment. 

“Anna! Hi!” He grins widely at her and Noishe (the latter of whom regards him with suspicion, even if a little less so than the first time they met.) “You’re back again too? I hadn’t even really realized I had left.” He laughs. “Though I can’t complain too much about the change of scenery. It’ll be nice to have a breath of fresh air away from Sector 002. Looks like I’m in L-1 this time around. How about you?”

[Guy didn't say noishe costume instead of nice minus ten points.]

[I had to leave you some room to come make the pun. I’m just really nice that way]

[gailardios-blog]

“Anna? Hey! Anna!”

Guy runs up to her, dodging some of the others in the crowd, waving and grinning. He is happy to note that she’s wearing a costume. There’s a lot of people here that seem to be foregoing that particular part of the party. Or maybe he’s mistaking costumes for normal clothes from their worlds? It can be hard to tell sometimes.

“I was wondering where you were! I figured you wouldn’t miss a party like this.”

He grins.

“Nice costume! You’re dressed as Noishe, right? It looks great!”

@motherswake 

[goldencups-a]

     He gave a nervous grin. 

     “No, no!” The child insisted. “My magic is just a little depleted, it all.” He stated with a soft smile. “I just need food or ‘omthing to fix it. They don’t have monster food here that I can afford, so using magic makes me weak sometimes.”

[gailardios-blog]

“Monster food?” 

“Is that different from human food? I mean, I don’t have too much on me right now, but if you needed something to eat to fix it, it’s the least I could do for fixing my arm and all.”

Guy smiles.

[gailardios-blog]

It’s too early in the day for the host club to be open quite yet, but Guy figured he’d better be taking the time to prep. The work here isn’t too difficult, but there’s still a bit of a learning curve to it. He gives a contented hum as he wipes down the surface of the bar.

There’s a flash of red hair out of the corner of his eye, which, thankfully, doesn’t belong to any of the several people that first cross his mind. (To be fair, it’s not like he’d be unhappy to see Luke by any means, but... maybe not in a place like this. Could he even get in at his age?)

Guy does recognize him though, vaguely. One of the hosts working here, he’s pretty sure? He ought to introduce himself.

“Hey. You work here, right? Guess that makes us coworkers. Want me to fix you anything?” He smiles warmly, gesturing towards the bottles of liquor lined up on the back shelf.

@envyswake

[gailardios-blog]

With all of the people mingling here, not to mention costumes thrown into the mix, Guy is surprised at how easily he suddenly spots a familiar face. 

“Hey! Daylen!”

A few quick strides and he falls in step with the mage, grinning widely.

“It’s good to see you! You know, I wasn’t really picturing a party like this being your style. Kind of a pleasant surprise. How have you been?”

@themagehero

[virassxn]

﴾ ➼ ﴿ Oh! He vaguely recognized this man– a friend of Daylen’s, if he remembered correctly. The Hero of Ferelden knew a great many people in the city and it wasn’t surprising to see a majority of them at this party, too. Would it be odd of him to introduce himself? Thus far, events in Hive City were nothing like the uptight and dangerous atmosphere of the ball in Halamshiral. 

This in mind, Cyrran approached the blond with a smile and bowed his head slightly before stating,

❝Good evening. You are a friend of Daylen Amell, yes? My name is Cyrran– we come from the same world.❞

@gailardios

[gailardios-blog]

Guy turns when he hears himself being addressed and smiles warmly.

“Oh! Hello.” A friend of Daylen Amell? The idea that Daylen has talked about their... interesting evening in each others company has him just a little worried. “Yeah, I know Daylen. Though I’m a little surprised to hear myself called his friend rather than more of just a focus of concern.”

He laughs and offers a shallow bow.

“Cyrran... it’s nice to meet you. My name’s Guy.” Come to think of it... he’s pretty sure he’s heard this man’s name somewhere before. Why can’t he place it? 

“Are you enjoying the party this evening?”

[actuallymuffet]

“A vacation with the occasional civilian riots and monster attacks, of course. An exciting vacation, indeed~…” Despite those things, she couldn’t deny that Guy’s description of it as a vacation made sense to her. She hadn’t thought of it like one before, but rather been telling herself it was her new home for the next forever. But it’s not like she had anything to vacation from. She didn’t have any worries or stresses back home.

Before getting too lost in her thoughts, she mentally cut herself off and responded with a curt “All in due time~”

“Until I hear of another spider girl joining the city, I’ll gladly hold the champion title, ahuhu~. Of course, I’m only as charming as polite gentlemen like you take me for. It takes two to tango, after all.” She paused, and for a moment her expression faltered from one of practiced, elegant politeness and changed to one of mild embarrassment. “Not that I even know how to tango, anyway. Sometimes these extra limbs are a hindrance as much as they are a help, you know?”

[gailardios-blog]

“I’ve certainly had my fair share of times when I’ve thought an extra couple of arms would be nice to have,” Guy laughs. “But, now that you mention it, coordination sounds like it might be a challenge.”

“Personally, riots and giant monster attacks aside, I’ve found my time here to be pretty peaceful. I’ve worked as a servant since I was very young, so having this much free time to myself has been nice. And I think I’ve met enough interesting people to offset any inconvenience a couple enormous laser-wielding monsters could present.”

[blazinginvokearc]

“It took a long time to actually figure out how to do it. There’s a certain breed of monsters that are extremely temperamental until you carefully shave off their fur. After that they tend to be friendly and don’t discharge as much electricity.” Pulling at her scarf, Riku laughed a little. “Though considering that this outfit is made to resist anything lightning and electricity-based its usually for the safety of others.”

“Well, there are smaller drones, though they’re not as interesting or bloodthirsty as the ones that were trying to kill us- its really up to assumption. And if the person controlling it isn’t a total asswipe.”

[gailardios-blog]

Guy laughs. 

“That’s fair. I mean, with any machine you need to consider the level of asswipe the creator or controller might be.” He grins. 

“Temperamental until you shave off their fur, huh? I know someone a little like that. Though he isn’t really a monster so much as just someone who was spoiled a little too much growing up.”

“But, I digress. That’s very interesting. There are plenty of monsters in my world back home, but we don’t quite have the same system of utilizing them into our technology as yours does.”

[loreleislight-deactivated201707]

“No, no come in. I was just thinking about what to make for dinner. I bought that cookbook and thought I’d try a few.”

It wasn’t a total lie; the book was situated right on the coffee table next to the couch where he was seated. He internally pats himself on the back for coming up with that on the spot. Though with his luck, he wondered how long he’d last with this lie, knowing Guy.

“Hey, why don’t you join me? I promise I won’t mess this up!! I’ve been practicing!” He almost burned a few pots through, but the 2 garbage bags that were piled next to the bin was enough proof… or so Luke hoped.

[gailardios-blog]

Wait, so Luke was just embarrassed about cooking? Maybe that explains how startled he had seemed when Guy came in. Considering the state of the kitchen... he guesses he can see it. Though Luke hasn’t ever been one to care too much about messes. Maybe he’s becoming more self-aware?

Whatever. Guy smiles.

“Yeah, sure. Sounds like fun. Learning to cook for yourself a little here and there is a great idea.” Luke’s past attempts at cooking have been... disastrous at best, but practice can make anything perfect, right?

He walks over to the kitchen, examining the pile of dishes in the sink and the garbage bags piled up by the trash can.

“What are you thinking of making?” Out of habit, he approaches the sink, turning on the faucet to let the pile soak.

[gailardios-blog]

[[ooc://

hi guys! i’m running low on threads, so here’s a little starter call for halloween party. capped at 3 with previous interactions and castmates exempt.]]

[goldencups-a]

     Asriel had to admit, his chest was beginning to hurt and his fingers were beginning to fall asleep though his hovering, magical touch. His faced skewed in the slightest as he pulled his fingers back slowly, stopping the flow of his magic. It looked a little bit better, but it surely had more healing of it’s own to do. He forced himself to inhale, gaze landing on Guy as he spoke. Asriel’s grin seemed tired.

     He still, nodded slowly, understanding fully how quickly someone could switch or lose control. He thought about the day THE PLAN was put into place. The thought was forced out of his mind as quickly as he could make it so. 

      His exhausted smile ever-present, he nodded slowly. It felt good to help. It was a good tired, a good drained, like exercising. “I’m glad I could help!” He said happily, music in his voice.

[gailardios-blog]

Now that the dull throb in his shoulder has subsided for the time being, Guy can’t help but notice how exhausted the goat child is looking. Relief changes to concern on his face.

“Woah, hey there. Are you okay? You didn’t wear yourself out on my behalf, did you?”
