𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐬 ‘stuff’ huh.... crimson eyes wandered around the endless porcelain cups displayed in front of him. How many of them were there even? some were even stacked one on top of the other simply because otherwise, they would probably fail to fit all in the same little delicately-put table in which they were being displayed. Leaning down a little in order to shorten the distance between himself and the table, Gilgamesh proceeded to lightly swipe his index finger over the surface of one of the cups- not because he was expecting dust to be collected on his finger, but rather, simply because perhaps; that was his own way of personally getting involved with Marie’s so called ‘fabulous’ collection.
It truly did not take long for the sage king to eventually pick one of the many cups displayed, his choice? a cup with a golden handle matched with intricate flower details painted all around it and inside of it. That small cup he was holding in between his hands.... It wasn’t quite like the cups he was accustumed in owning and using back in his time, yet just because the appearance was different didn’t mean that the king couldn’t appreciate the attention to detail that the object had. How contrasting was the view when he thought of his own golden cups and Marie’s ones ... truly a large gap separated their eras.
❝ —I must confess, you possess a rather fine eye for well made craft work, Queen of France. Was collecting these objects part of your hobbies in your past life, or has it been something you have been able to only delight in as a servant? ❞ He didn’t really expect a direct answer from her in all truth, so his attention shifted back to the cup he was holding in between his left hand. Returning it to its original spot, Gilgamesh chuckled lightly; ❝ Not bad, not bad ... Perhaps I should as well show you one day the cups pertaining to my treasury, I am certain you will be able to appreciate their fine work as well. ❞
