Ophiuchus thoughtfully left behind a box of assorted fruits for Lumi this day, and an ear cuff he had made for her. It was imprinted with their constellations interlocked – a small reminder that she wasn’t getting rid of him at any time.

The note left behind read, Leave the evening free, please.

He had a reservation for them at the upscale restaurant that evening.

The ear cuff goes on immediately before she studies herself in the mirror thoughtfully. It looks very nice, and he'd chosen well–it goes perfectly with her chosen colors, and with the outfit she'd been thinking of wearing tonight.

She loves when he picks out just the right thing. With a pleased little ear flick she settles in with the fruit and two mi'kittens to share them with while she waits for whatever special plans Ophi has prepared.

She's committed herself to 500 whetstones.

She's made 458 so far. They are piling up.

slapping this here and adding it to my pinned post along all my blogs just as a notice bc lmao

please note that, currently, i suffer from extreme chronic fatigue for medical reasons and this results in me often falling asleep mid conversation/reply, or just outright not existing on tumblr for days at a time. discord's more likely to reach me those days, but even then it's a gamble. so if i suddenly stop replying to threads or dms/discord messages, i'm not ignoring you i'm just likely either asleep or have depleted all my energy for social interaction and have retreated to read until i've regained the ability to chat.

"That so? It was already a snow hellscape when I arrived in Eorzea so I didn't know that." Well, kind of. She had heard about it from texts and conversations with the Scions but.

She listened as he described recent problems, chin on her hand with a quiet hum. Some of it sounded like it wasn't anything she could help with, but materials...? She could help with that.

"I've got time on my hands, if you want me to go around gathering things for your construction crews."

“All right, perhaps my cook has...less than ample experience with imported greens,” Aymeric admitted, still quite amused. It tasted a little bland, he could admit, but that was fine. He was trying to be fancy. “Of course I've seen a lettuce. You do know Coerthas was not always covered in snow, right?”

With that, came an abrupt subject change. “Fortunately, not much here. We are still rebuilding, you know,” Aymeric started, and he prepared to talk at length about the minor problems they were facing – lack of construction materials and the like.

"It's your fault I fell off a waterfall, I think that deserves two attempts." She wouldn't actually try to drown him but one deep enough to do that meant he couldn't avoid getting soaked thoroughly. Which was the real goal.

"Don't worry!" she chirped. "I promise not to let you suffer for long."

Thancred had half a mind to ask her just what in the name of the Twelve she was talking about. He bit his tongue, however, when he remembered that this was Lumianne he was dealing with. Whatever it was that she wanted revenge for, the hyur thought it best to not ask.

"Well, I suppose I can allow you a singular attempt, if that pleases you," he quipped with a smirk. "In case you have forgotten, I am a capable swimmer and I can hold my breath for quite a while."

In other words, good luck.

"Ishgardian cuisine is fine. What's not fine is passing a leaf off as a salad green." She was kind of insulted that he was eating what looked an awful lot like an oak leaf. "Have you ever seen a lettuce?"

She was going to feed him real food.

Pointedly she bites into her steak, amused. "Anything new happening in your neck of the woods? Tural was exciting."

Aymeric looked down at his plate of extremely expensive, imported vegetables, some coming from as far away as La Noscea. He did not eat like this often, had broken out the best he could possibly afford for the arrival of the Warrior of Light.

He now saw the error of his ways.

“Does Ishgardian cuisine not agree with you, Mistress Lumianne?” Aymeric asked, an amused smile playing on his lips. He sipped at his tea, sweetened with four teaspoons of birch syrup, and wondered what she ate when she dined at Fortemps Manor.

@thancrxdwatxrs || still mad about the waterfall thancred

"I think I should be allowed to drop you into a river at least once. As revenge." For what? She's not clarifying; whatever he'd done to annoy her had apparently been remembered.

"I'm going to find one deep enough to drown you in, let's go."

@herosluminis || siblings are happening

"So you say you had nothing to do with the cactuar dance party." She very clearly does not believe this. Not at all. "If there are any witnesses and you're lying to me, I'm going to put you in the time out corner."

She might do it anyway. Big sister privilege.

@theazureblade || i am the snacktergeist

"Far be it from me to criticize a salad but are you sure that's not just grass?" It doesn't look like any salad she's ever had before. She's not actually sure that's even a salad.

"Aymeric, please. Please, for the love of Hydaelyn, eat something besides salad."
