“You’re just the person I was hoping to see.” The Miqo’te said it with a smile on his face, a small package in his hands. One which was bequeathed to the Elezen with a hearty flourish. “I’ve come bearing a gift, of all things. I figured that you might be... ah, mayhaps a little famished since battlefields are difficult in the best of times.”

Eccentric as ever, G’raha. Not that he’d ever change, no. That was just asking too much.

((from Arcabuncle)) "Its queer to say it is the summer season, yet the snow & the cold lingers on here in Ishgard,"

“It’s queer to say it is the summer season, yet the snow and the cold lingers on here in Ishgard,” Akatsuki mused as if to herself. 

Serella wasn’t entirely sure she was speaking in jest or not. She was too busy frantically digging through her pack.

“S-s-s-sure…queer.” Serella managed through chattering teeth. “Why d-didn’t you r-r-r-remind me b-b-before we t-t-t-t-teleported?!”

Akatsuki turned to look at the Paladin, eyes widening in shock as though she had only just realized Serella had accepted her offered teleport…still in her swimsuit.

Akatsuki’s eyes widened in shock, and she moved to help, swiftly pulling a cloak from her pack, though draping it over the significantly taller woman only succeeded in covering her to her mid-thigh, and even then, only barely. Once Serella’s rapidly numbing hands managed to find her own cloak she just threw it over Akatsuki’s, desperate for any semblance of warmth.

“S-s-suppose it’s m-my fault.” Serella conceded, clutching the cloak shut against the howling wind outside. “I’m g-g-g-going b-back.” 

Akatsuki nodded, and gave an apologetic wave goodbye as Serella teleported back to Costa del Sol. The Paladin loved Ishgard, truly she did…when she was dressed for it.

    “Ah, another young soul graces this old man with his presence. Hmm, such a brilliant color of spirit, azure with specs of white glittering like fine snow on a winters days. Tis a beautiful sight...strong yet gentle...full of hope.” The great elder murmured as he gazed upon the pale eyed elezen. 

“Now whom might you be lad? Will you humble an old spirit with thy name?”

A Needed Repose

@cielcrd  With a basket in tow, Zelenia knocked on the door to the office of Aymeric, Lord Commander of the temple knights, and found it odd that there was no answer, no familiar and welcoming “come in” from behind the door. She decided to knock once more, perhaps he didn’t hear it, so once more the warrior of light knocked, albeit a bit louder. Met with even more silence, she found herself opening the door a bit of worry when Aymeric failed to answer once more.  There Zelenia found a sight she wasn’t expecting, Ser Aymeric sleeping soundly at his desk, a soft smile of amusement forming on her face. There was something very endearing about seeing the normally strong and confident commander just snoozing away, falling asleep without realizing it. Just then, her smile of amusement became one of worry. “Did... did he even return home for the evening....?” She mumbled softly to herself.

"Marshal Tarupin, pray do you not mind receiving some of these chocolates I received? T'would seem my mailbox was so full we eventually lost a place to store these sweets. As much as I enjoy sweets, I do not think I can consume all of them, so I thought these Ishgardian chocolates made by our nation's best pâtissière would fancy your tongue sir,"

“Ah! A letter from the Lord Commander! And a gift besides! What does this say…?”

“Sir Aymeric…you’re very popular too aren’t you?”

[[ I think both Pipin and Lord Aymeric get their fair share of chocolates and gifts come Valentines day as grand leaders! ^^!

… Except Pipin’s not much of a sweet tooth and he has trouble figuring out what to do with them all come the end of the day haha. Though mayhaps Sir Aymeric’s is a special high quality kind he will save for a rainy day hmmm! ]]

“Mystic Eyes were supposed to be for my collection, too, but that girl, one of the Cryptos, died before I could get it. So, you can guess what type of things I collect, Ruler. It’s a wonderful business to run. Not only that, but Chaldea is blossoming with good flowers to pick one day once they bloom.”
