Re: Svarik and the company II

[Mirach]

Senecio sighed. "I brought this upon myself, didn't I?" He thought for a moment. "I feel very worthless right now, wanting to hide in some hole and stay there... I almost got him corrupted and he healed me..."

[VisAnastasis]

" I understand. I am a bit ashamed in your name as well. He knew I wanted to ask. " demon  admitted quietly. " You know... " he said slowly. " He did gave three year worth of his salary away recently. He doesn't buy anything for himself, you noticed, because he has no money of his own. It is just a thought... If you have some money saved... Maybe you could ask him out to treat him? " he suggested. " Maybe that would help.... It would be a nice thought... "

[Mirach]

"I fear that would be rather awkward," Senecio sighed. "And I heard that he does not eat, either..."

[VisAnastasis]

" I know, I was thinking about it, too. I was pondering for the last two days. What can you give to someone who does not eat, drink, or like parties and big events? But there is a catch. " demon said with little triumph in his grin. " Above all, he likes to treat others. He won't ask for anything for himself, and he'd be too proud to - but he always beams when people  he loves are tended. He is proud, so you need good excuse. You can say you want to buy something nice, a little sign of attention to his king, to thank him for sparing you, but need Erdel's help because you do not know king's taste. He likes when Svarik is treated well - he will bite. Then, if you can, observe for his reactions - and if you see something catches his eyes, if it's affordable, treat him to it. It was my plan, to be honest... "he blushed. " But I decided to instead tend for his soul, to do what's good for him. You could try this instead... If you want to... "

[Mirach]

Senecio nodded slowly. "If he would accept my company..." he said uncertainly, thinking that Erdel could help him pick something for Tide as well.

[VisAnastasis]

" You just have to pick up a moment when he can have free time. " Tide said. " I'd say now would be good, since king is sleeping, but you didn't finish the letters yet... So how about in the evening? It is okay, if we don't get to have that date today, after all. " he said slowly, just a little sadly, but firmly. " We can still just go for a walk under stars somewhere, even when shops and restaurants close down - we can always go somewhere fancier some other time.. " he glanced at him shyly. " But today, I'd rather prefer if you felt a little less worthless... I would not be happy, to go out and pretend all is fine, when you're feeling so blue... "

[Mirach]

"I need to finish the letters today, but we can delay finding the script for tomorrow and just go out until Erdel is free," Senecio suggested.

[VisAnastasis]

" Deal. " Tide said. " That is, it's a deal, if you accept to first have a big breakfast with me right now. " he said innocently. " I want you to write very good letters... I want you to, hopefully, get along with my family, and there can be no hope of that if you don't apologize properly. But you can not do that if you're not properly nourished. It's been long night... So.. Will you have breakfast with me first? "

[Mirach]

"Yes, I would love to," Senecio nodded, starting to feel quite hungry after Tide mentioned breakfast.

[VisAnastasis]

" Let's eat, then. What would you like? " Tide said. " I shall go down and search for it as I bring us meal. Would you like us, um, eat here or in my room? Whichever is more comfortable... "

[Mirach]

"Either would be fine," Senecio said. "Or we can go pick something together and eat at the beach, would you like that?"

[VisAnastasis]

" Actually, I would like that. Let us do it, then. " creature smiled shyly, and it waved to doors invitingly, so lad could follow him to kitchen.

[Mirach]

Senecio went with him to the kitchen, where they picked some delicious meal for a brunch on the beach.

[VisAnastasis]

Tide seemed to be rather joly and flustered, and he could barely keep a straight face as they had left the house, not really able to help himself from smiling from ear to ear.

[Mirach]

Senecio observed him when he thought Tide wasn't looking, enjoying his expression.

(OOC: does it show on the mask when he is smiling?)

[VisAnastasis]

( the mask as I imagine it covers  his eyes and big part of face, but not his mouth, so most of his expressions of joy and else I like to describe through movements of his lips. )

Tide seemed to like walking in the sunshine, with Senecio, as it seemed he sow it as their casual  oficial going out as a couple, and found it nice.
" I brought a cloth, should we sit down and make a little picnic, maybe?"

[Mirach]

"Yes, the beach is veru nice here. Do you have a favourite spot?" Senecio asked. 

[VisAnastasis]

" Well, I like every place near sea. It is cozy. I have an idea. " He beamed." You have a boat, and I did not wreck it, after all. Maybe we can have a meal at Sea, so we can watch the city from distance. It is quite a nice view."

[Mirach]

"How about having half of the meal somewhere near first, and the rest at the sea?" Senecio asked. "I'm getting quite hungry already..."

[VisAnastasis]

" As you wish. I imagine you really must be hungry. The wound is gone, but weariness will need some replenishment to fade. " Critter said fondly." You chose spot on beach, and I will chose spot on sea, deal?"

[Mirach]

"Alright," Senecio nodded and looked around the beach. "That pier looks nice..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Then pier it is. " Critter agreed amiably, and married their things there.

[Mirach]

Senecio sat down with his legs hanging from the pier above the sea, and helped Tide unwrap some sandwiches.

[VisAnastasis]

Tide was sparing his burnt hand, but despite it, he seemed rather cheerful, and glad for the help. He sat down shyly, wagging his legs playfully from the pier too as he took one sandwitch for himself.

[Mirach]

When Senecio finished his sandwich rater quickly in his hunger, he watched the sea until Tide was finished as well.
