Fontaine was something she was still getting used to. Even if it was for business, she did spare some time to enjoy the view and the inner workings of the capital. She was by a sweet stand, taking in a view of the citizens and melusines. They were quite interesting creatures. Gabriella broke out of her thoughts as she ordered her cake slice, seeming content with the new gourmet sweets to try. Though her gaze met a melusine again, seeming quite sad that their own cake had met the pavement. A tragedy, really, sweets that were spoiled couldn't be enjoyed at all. Gabriella made her way over, gently crouching down in her heels, holding her plate to them. "Here, you can have mine. I'll get another for myself and someone to clean this up, okay?" With a nod, they gently took it and went to have a seat to enjoy their cake. It seemed she didn't have to worry about cleanup, seeing as someone came over from the stall nearby to do so. "Now to get another cake..." The witch hummed, slowly getting up, only to stiffen feeling herself bump into someone as she did so. "Ah-.. sorry about that, Monsiuer... I wasn't looking where I was going." (For Neuvillette !)
IT WAS NOT STRANGE to catch a glimpse of the Iudex as he went about his business, most particularly on days like this where the sun was shining pleasantly rather than with intent to murder. His trial for the day complete and paperwork done, he thought to reward himself by taking a leisure walk and stretching his legs – getting the blood flow back through them after sitting for what felt like the majority of the day. Gaze trained straight ahead, he had managed to catch a glimpse of a woman helping one of the melusines, such a sight managing to soften his gaze a little with fondness before he looked away once more. He hadn’t done such for long before he came to collide against the very person whose actions had earned a favorable first impression. Grunting softly, he barely moved, although was taken aback as sharp eyes came to rest upon them. ❝Ah, it is perfectly fine. I should have paid attention.❞ He paused, quiet, thoughtful, before speaking again. ❝I saw what you did for Siora. Thank you for being kind to her.❞ Neuvillette gestured his head over to the Melusine in question. ❝If you do not mind it, please allow me to pay for another slice of cake for you.❞
