video; un: high.priest

[Adra's in his little apartment kitchen when he broadcasts this, wearing an apron and presiding over several bowls of various ingredients--blueberries, strawberries, cream, sugar, eggs, flour, etc. His elf ears have shifted to the Cordis cat's--a slightly darker shade of blond than his hair and very fluffy. His long, cream-colored tail swishes about as he talks. His voice is as deep and booming as ever, but there's a brighter tone to it--strangely upbeat.]

Bal'a dash. I hope the evening finds you all well and warm. I just have a few quick words.

[He starts slicing a strawberry as he goes on.]

Many of you arrived here already gifted in the ways of magic. But I've met several others who have never had such powers before. I've seen confusion and anxiety due to this, and I want you all to know that I'd be glad to help, if I can.

[He twirls his flour-dusted finger, and a ribbon of sparkling Light dances around his hand.]

Though I've devoted myself to the priesthood in recent years, I was once a mage of some skill--had apprentices, even. If you need instruction or advice in the ways of magic, please don't hesitate to call on me.

[The Light fades as he bows his head slightly, his furry ears twitching.]

My name is Adrasteius, and I'm at your disposal.

[sortofnotreally.

Robin at least has the courtesy to shut the door behind him? he then looks around the apartment, taking in his surroundings and how a Priest decorates his living space.

more importantly is that SMELL coming from where he's finishing up. he'll be good and stay back, though with his hands raised in a placating gesture.]


Easy. I'm on my best behavior, 'kay? [his version of best behavior.] I'm definitely surprised you told me where to find you, though. No hard feelings, huh?
offshoots: ce (whoa whoa)

[always a soft feeling guy, eh? Robin can believe it since he had been so willing to offer the thief who jacked his basket more food once he realized how hungry he was.

like now.

his tail twitches behind him.]


You realizing that certainly saves me from explaining anything. [translation: yes, he's starving. Moonlacing would be more efficient but he's not so willing... to do that... despite his history.]

It's a pain in the ass, it is. Sometimes literally.

[TAIL. BIG FLUFF TAIL.]

Hah hah. Very funny. Curl up, yeah yeah.

[... how convenient! yeah, Robin is going to head on over to that armchair and take a seat. curl up, psh no. he's not even tempted! really. it is a relief not to have his tail all bunched up behind him. forearms on the rests, he sinks down into it and enjoys how comfy it is.

and the catering to.]


All bad jokes aside, you're a pretty gracious host.

[he's mid-reach for one of those sandwiches when Adra makes the comment about manners. hey, he has manners. when he wants to have them. watch.

his palms lay flat on his thighs and he bows his head.]


Thank you very much for the food.

[ALRIGHT NOW HE'S GRABBING ONE and taking a big bite. he waits until he's swallowed before talking.]

Ooh, these are good. You're better than that other Priest.
offshoots: by <user name="knowing"> THANK NMS (I WANT TO DROWN MY SORROW)

[personal profile] offshoots 2020-01-16 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
[IS HE?! LMFAO. that's good since he's not slowing down once he's downed one sandwich. he grabs another but doesn't take a bite quite yet.]

Hm? Ah, my bad, I was talking to myself. You're the only Priest I know here but if you want repayment for this, I guess I could do some poking around...

[in his mouth, the sandwich goes.]

[Asuna would be proud, beech.

Robin, on the other hand, is just nom nom'ing away as they get on the dangerous topic of religion.

he's a talker when it's not about him.]


Aren't you charitable...

[he shouldn't keep eating but he is.]

I can't really leave here knowing I owe you, though. It doesn't sit right with me. [with a tart in hand, he leans back in the chair and looks pensive.] If you want some kinda sparring partner for your new apprentices, I suppose you can call on me.
offshoots: (sit down)

[personal profile] offshoots 2020-02-18 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[he's in the middle of taking a bite of that tart and stops. he avoids battle when possible.

that... explains... a lot.]


Hey, you don't get to decide whether I think I owe you or not. Fact is, you've fed me the food from your table. Back in the day, people would kill for--

[for a piece of bread but those words die on his tongue.]

There has to be something. It's been twice now, Sir Priest.

[Robin wants to make a smart comment like "what, do you plan on feeding the whole world?" but he's preoccupied with this tart and he doesn't talk with his mouth full.

most of the time.]


Your assistant? [he does talk once he's swallowed, sucking a bit of sweet stuff off his thumb.]

With what, exactly?
offshoots: last encore (DOESN'T REALLY MATTER TO ME)

[old man? an eyebrow raises at him but he figures it's similar to his own situation. born hundreds of years ago but something something Grails something something Servants.

or he ages really well. whatever the case, he doesn't look like an old man like Robin doesn't look like a 500+ year old Spirit.]


You want me to be your errand boy, you mean. [his tone takes on something flatter BUT in his MOON CYCLE MIND the concept of being fed is rather nice. what's a trip to a grocery store anyway? AND he doesn't have to use his own money.

it's not a bad deal, all things considered. sounds like community service, actually. the tip of his tail flicks back and forth.

then, he shrugs with an idle smile.]


Alright, sure. Why not? [sounds like a better version of being Servant and Master, in his opinion.]

Shall we shake on it, Sir Priest?
offshoots: ccc (only love in return)

[perhaps Adra will learn Robin ISN'T VERY NICE TO HIMSELF.]

Well... you have a point about a good meal not being trivial.

[and he takes his hand, not saying anything about how warm it is but

not letting go immediately either at the small influx of Chroma he gets from the gesture.]


I wouldn't say that yet. I haven't done anything.
