text. [backdated to the 20th]

I had hoped to be able to keep to myself for some time longer, but recent events have made that decidedly more difficult, and I hope none mind that I haven't introduced myself before now.

My name is Gaius, and recently I've found myself in possession of a house larger than one single man needs to own. Beyond the fact that I have no earthly idea how to furnish it, I also certainly do not need all four of the bedrooms when neither my children nor any of my men are here to fill them.

Any looking for a nicer place to stay are more than welcome to one.

[made private from Era Ra]
And I would also like to request ideas on what to gift a young woman who quite likes fashion, as in this place I'm unable to find what I would normally give to either her or her chocobo.

Given that she has so thoughtfully gifted me an entire house without warning, yes. Yes, I'm quite aware.

[Exasperation doesn't carry over text right?? Right.]

But you say that her best friend is someone called Pyra?

~~Is she starting a harem over there?~~

I'd be careful if I were you. She threw a fit when I accidentally dropped some cookies she gifted me. Don't break a window!

Anyway, yes. They're practically sisters.

I see.

'Tis strange, though. She isn't one to use such terms lightly, and I don't recall the best friend she spoke so fondly of being a Pyra.

Geyser was it?

And you think you're so up-to-date? Did she mention she has an adopted brother and father?

Baelsar, actually.

[That's right, first name privileges totally revoked Tony you prick.]

And yes. She has a fair few of both now, though I shan't blame you for being unaware of the fact.

I only wonder why it feels as if you're trying to pull one over on myself, or Pyra, or both of us, but I suppose I could simply ask her about it when I meet her.

[Hmm. Looks like Sully isn't the only one with eight thousand names. Also, a few of both?]

So suspicious. Is that anyway to make friends in new places?

I will admit, I was only aware of Noctis and Regis. I was asking about them because Pyra is Noctis' girlfriend, therefore showing you how she fit into this social puzzle.

See? Got your Mario panties in a twist over nothing, Bowser. :D

[He knows he should stop, he just can't help himself.]

Were an unknown stranger to approach you and insist you act behind the back of one you consider family, without reason, would you not also be suspicious? Or are you so trusting of others intentions that you would simply go along with it without question?

[Although it is nice, having his suspicions on Noctis and Regis actually confirmed. Not that it's a stretch to assume what Era's nebulous statement of "like family" actually entailed, but hey. Solid answers certainly help.]

No, but just think about how hilarious it would've been if you'd done that? My only regret would've been to not have a camera on Sully when his third eye burst like a popcorn kernel.

So the intention was for me to upset both Era and a girl that doesn't even know me, was it?

Ser, the next time you wish for a show? Kindly leave me out of it.

It's called a joke. I wouldn't have let you actually do it. Now what do you say to getting treated to a beer or whiskey, Baelsar?

Your sense of humor leaves much to be desired, as does the attitude that comes with it.

[And honestly, he very nearly declines just because of that, but. This has created several questions he's going to need answers for, whether from the man in question or from Era later, so...]

Do I get a name from the one offering, or shall I need to come up with something with the potential to be highly unflattering?

[Whatever, he found it funny. He hadn't meant it as mean spirited as it seemed to have come off.]

Tony Stark, resident pain-in-the-ass. In all seriousness though, you can find many of the merchants here happy to make something special for you if you tell them what you want. She might like a nice wine rack or wine cooler?
