Summary
The conversation had come around to his soon-to-be fatherhood, something that is never far from Steph's mind these days. The small container thrums with some kind of energy that warms Steph's hand through his gloves.
Sanson pointedly ignores his partner's comment, the curiousity getting the better of him (as usual). "…How did this even happen?"
"Well," Steph smiles widely. He loves telling this story every time.

Summary
He thought Artoirel was being nice, or perhaps taunting, wearing the shoes in those meetings despite how horribly even Steph could tell they clashed with the regular red pants. Then Stephanivien saw the man wear them outside, and he couldn't tell if the sight should get his heart racing or his head spinning. Artoirel had always cared so deeply about his perception, to the detriment of his relationships with his family, and it seemed deeply odd that Artoirel would considering wearing them.

Summary
There, at the end of the crumbs, is what can only be described as a beast.
Most of its fur is a mottled gray, excepting a patch of white from its snout to its stomach. Its head is tipped down to lick its own leg (that is the size of its whole body over). The nose of the thing twitches with a violence. Its ears are long, long and wide, and far too large for the strange proportions of its body. The eyes on either side of its head marks it as a prey animal, but there's a terrifying emptiness in them that emanate an aura of maleficence.
One ear swivels to face Cisone. The face follows.

“So you'd kill a child to keep up your games?”
“That isn't- Steph, if I am removed, they will send someone dangerous after you. Someone who isn't willing to pull their punches. I won't be able to protect you.”

A shirtless Sicard narrows his eyes. "…Sure."

Summary
With a flick of her hand, Cisone summons the facsimile of Midgardsormr. It floats besides her, unseeing and unspeaking, as it has been since her last discussion with the great wyrm inside of Omega. Her lip trembles. This fragment is no more sentient than the roaming dragons. There is no purpose, not fulfillment, not community, not even base survival.

Summary
The drink in his hands is… effervescent to say the least. Taupe in color and bitter in smell. Tedalgrinche wrinkles his nose. He considers dropping the thing and just running, but Jannequinard pins him in place with his eyes, like he's one of many dead butterlies on the walls of Dzemael manor.
"Drink," Steph says. There is no room for argument.

Summary
Steph struggles to follow precisely what the point of Hatchingtide is. How could he, when his longtime friend regains some of that childlike wonder as the lighthearted concert in Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre washes over him? What could be more important than taking in every glimpse of the flower crown adorning his stuffy fiance's hair with cream-colored gossamer ribbons following in his wake? He's no bard like Guydelot, no orator like Artoirel, but his heart bursts with the desire to string words together that would prove his adoration.

Summary
The environment is suddenly ruined by a shriek. The intensity of it makes Artoirel assume someone on the factory floor has lost an arm or something similar, so he rushes to the railing. The press loves a hero.
On the upside, it's probably best that his assumption was wrong. What would he do about a severed arm anyway? On the downside, the truth of the situation was far worse. Haurchefant Greystone has entered the building at Francel's side. Half a dozen starstruck idiots circle up to stroke his ego.

Summary
It started small and overwhelmed him fast, just like all great loves do.
The flowery language of a bard is much more enjoyable than petals in the throat, Guydelot has learned. He hadn't understood what was happening at first. All of a sudden, in the middle of Tailfeather, Sanson glanced back with a thankful smile. Thus was Guydelot doomed.

Summary
He has layered the bodice with new silk shorts and an well-loved robe in the same shade. He's removed most of his jewelry (excepting the single earring with the crest of his house — Artoirel has never felt comfortable out of his bed without it on). The whole effect isn't too far out of his comfort zone, the top forsaking cleavage and shaping for a simple silhouette with a high neckline. Even still, he feels like he should pull on his thighboots, despite how horribly they would fit with the ensemble.
He doesn't even know how he wants Steph to respond. Artoirel knows he is vain, and he would be upset if he wasn't complimented. At the same time, he isn't really sure he wants to be seen as a sexual object. He's spent his whole adult life being desired for his power and his looks, and outside of a select few, he knows that other aristocrats see him as little more than a pet who will follow whatever hand is feeding him at the time.

Janne's lips part. He wordlessly takes the papers in his hands. It's… it's a deed.
"I was able to handle most of this on my own," Quimperain says. "And I guess I could've handled this as well, but I wanted you to take part. My name is already on the paperwork. I wanted you to have part stake. You've given up everything for me, so I wanted to go into this together. As equals."

"I hope I am not being too presumptuous, but shall I assume you are here for something of a supernatural origin?"
"You are correct. I believe I may be possessed."
Artoirel's eyes go wide, even as Steph snorts behind him. Tedalgrinche turns the slightest bit to glare at him. "Have some class, Haillenarte."
Steph smiles, like he has been told a nice joke. "It's about time one of you did. Messing with demons is bound to mess with you eventually."

Summary
Cisone keeps the high ground, keeping parallel to Thancred on higher rooftops so he won't see her. She goes to jump again to a parapet when a booming explosion shakes the buildings surrounding the area. The sound causes her to readjust her angle to come back down where she left. Her eyes follow the sound to a flash of light interrupting the ink-dark sky.
When it clears, she sees a massive canon crumbling and falling down onto the roof. Her eyes widen to take it all in. Distantly, she registers Thancred leaving her line of sight, but a feeling of something important just on the horizon keeps her feet rooted.

Summary
Emmanellain's voice cracks. "Will you not speak to me, dear friend? About whatever you want. I just need to feel normal for… for the first time in half a decade." Emm swirls the glass in his hand. "Who would've guessed I would miss the days where I was inundated with paperwork. It is downright depressing to come to work just to lie to the people that everything will be okay."
"You look like shit," Sicard says. It's the nicest thing he can think of.
Emm looks down, like he's forgotten what he's wearing. One hand goes through his hair in a useless attempt to fix it. "It has just been one of those weeks, I suppose."
