A: It's a Hat
[ For those who have met Pyra, they may probably recall that a golden headband set with a peculiar crystal usually sits atop her hair. Today that isn't the case. Instead, she appears to have swapped the accessory with something a little-- rather, a lot different: a hat. Not just any hat, but a flat-brimmed western, of which some may recognize belonging to another resident of the town.

It's too big for her head, and in accordance with the fickle weather of the city, a gust of wind blows the hat right off. ]
...Ah!

[ It's flying right at you, too. Catch it? Or, even if you don't, she will, sprinting and leaping past you to ensure that it does not touch the ground. This hat is important! Very important! She's not going to let it become damaged if she can help it. Whether you or she manages to save it from a fall, she breathes out a sigh of relief, smiling at you as she straightens up, tossing her hair. ] ...Thank goodness. That was a close one. [ Then, a polite bow. ] I'm sorry about that.

B: Wacky Weather
[ The weather is just... weird. And cold, very cold in this particular district, which may or may not be the most important district because it is the shopping district. But look at her, still dressed in the same outfit as ever! She's currently peering into one of the shops... There's a scarf. A very fluffy scarf on one of the mannequins that she's staring at.

Aaaaand since she's unnaturally warm and doesn't need it, she turns away from it only to spot..... you, at which point her eyes widen and she draws a quick breath, making her way over. Don't mind her, quickly reaching for both of your hands to take into hers, warming them with the unnatural heat of her touch. ]


Oh, no, you look almost frostbitten...

[ Guiding your hands up further, she brings them up to her mouth where she blows onto them gently, then rubbing her hands quickly over yours. ] Better?

C: Wildcard

[ pyra no ]

I‌ cannot cook as you do, nor do I‌ have your knowledge.

[ Pyra bears an overabundance of it. Thanks to her, he’s eaten a variety of balanced meals in the month they’ve been here. Does he enjoy her cooking? ]

Perhaps I do.

[ At the very least, he enjoys it in the sense that he benefits from her cooking. He can’t imagine what trying harder on her end would entail. She already makes everything with such zeal. ]

Your current efforts are more than sufficient. That energy is better spent elsewhere.

[ Bringing his other hand around, he cups hers to make that point. ]

[ It does sound fair. She needn’t go out of her way to make an elaborate meal for him, but, so long as he maintains contact, her hands can be free to do as they please. The gods will receive an offering of touch either way. The hand he raised drops down to his side. ]

Very well.

[ Even if it were, that was so long ago. Combined with circumstances at the time, his appetite was greatly diminished then. Though he was never picky, he’s less pickier now than ever before. ]

I will eat anything. Whatever you choose to make will do.

[ He really will eat anything. Unlike Noctis, he finishes his vegetables. Like Noctis, though, he prefers his meats. Fruits are good, too.

Those were his preferences eons ago. There’s no telling what he’ll think of them now. He’s already told Magolor that the taste of food as a whole doesn’t concern him. Pyra can create whatever she fancies, and he’ll still end up reaping the benefits of her labor.

Consequently, the mystery of her secret surprise doesn't faze him in the slightest. ]


I await it.

[ Please, a portrait isn't even on the list of last things he would want. She's already done too much for him. He won't be fussy.

If she's going to speak of fairness, hasn't he just been taking all this time? ]


I have done naught to earn this favor.

[ “You’ve given me some of your time and company already, haven’t you?”

In this world, time and company by themselves offer nothing. All he can give is his touch, which she gives herself in return. Truly, he’s been granted this generosity at no cost.

No, that’s not true. He's repaid her generosity with deception all this time, feigning ignorance where he knows. He looks down at their hands. She gives freely, and he takes brazenly—for what else can he do? ]


Then I accept.

You have given me numerous gifts since our arrival.

[ One must receive the blessing one is bestowed. But no blessing is given without some demonstration of faith, and he's yet to do anything of the sort for Pyra. She never asks for anything in return. She loves; therefore, she gives.

All he can do is answer her questions, for they're the only times she'll ask something of him. He lifts his head. That'll have to do. ]


What you give freely, I will take.
meridio: (04)

[personal profile] meridio 2019-12-15 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's only overwhelming when it's unmerited. In deference to her, he'll do what he must to be worthy of it. Their eyes meet, and then he tears his gaze away to shake his head once. He said that he would take what she gives him. ]

I have yet to refuse.

[ Not in a way where something was forced onto him. If it becomes truly overwhelming, he'll decline what she gives him next. ]

[ He continues to look away when she mentions his family. Most of them and their loved ones are rightfully angry with him. He's done nothing to earn a place in their thoughts, leaving Regis to maintain relations and causing strain where there shouldn't be one. The current state of affairs is unfair to his grandson, and he knows this. ]

I do not need more.

[ He doesn't want more. ]

What you give me is enough.

[personal profile] meridio 2019-12-17 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ He doesn't answer right away. Not because he hesitates, but because he has none to give her. Consequently, he doesn't respond in the way she might have intended. ]

Where it began, and where it ends. That is my home.

[ Insomnia is where he made the bed on which he must lie. There, he's formed beautiful and terrible memories both. It's home. ]

[ Her suggestion isn't incorrect. Home, he said, is where something begins and ends. Here, as she said, his day begins and ends. Somnus follows the motion of her hand. Here, he's still doing as bade by the gods while neglecting everything else. Even if this residence is nothing more than a shelter for his mortal body, it qualifies as a home by his own definition.

Most of all, he wonders: how long is temporary? Though his head remains upright, his gaze drops to the floor in thought. ]


My day begins and ends here. Until that cycle draws to a close, this will be my home in the city.

[ A home for which he feels nothing. And yet. ]
