"Its not just pretty but your name is genuinely beautiful." The day had been a long one; exhaustion had plagued every corner of his body. Once his back leaned a bit behind, there was no stopping him from plopping all the way back, his head thumping against her sheets. Wriothesley even shut his eyes as he listened to her go on, the tender sound of her voice, the purring of a spoiled kitten, the warmth of her room.... he loved this. In the moment, it felt as if the chains of his past released him.

Eyes would lazily open and turn to her direction; he'd been compared to and called many sorts of things, some unpleasant, but never had he been compared to a little stumbling kitten before. A grin came upon his lips with a cheeky response. "You want to teach me some manners?"

A playful laugh would follow his remarks before forcing himself up from the lap of comfort, taking a gander at the wee Cloud in her arms, seeing what they just happened to have in common. Blue eyes, black hair, and both so good-looking. "No scars on him, but he looks well-fed. He probably likes napping; we've got that in common." He'd continue to list off some differences and similarities. "Ah thats it. I know what it is."

"It's because we like your company, spending time with you at your place, absolutely adore you.... and by the sound of it." A brief pause to emphasize the purring. "We both love your kisses." He would leave a brief and warm peck on her cheek without warning.

it brought a smile to her face that wriothesley seemed to instantly recognize the kitten with her since, to tell the truth, she realistically would not have this sweet animal with her at this present moment if it were not for him. he was the one who found him. she made space by her side when she took note of his approach, holding the kitten in her arms her eyes widened at how he immediately attacked him. ' hey! ' she raised her voice slightly in faux offense. ' don't do that. ' she frowned slightly & pulled slightly until finally it released wriothesley's finger even if there was no real damage. actually the duke hardly reacted but regardless. ' i'm going to have to teach you some manners. ' she huffed & gently booped the kitten's nose before kissing the top of his head again right between his little ears which earned her a happy little purr.

' i couldn't get myself to let him go. ' she shook her head. she knew her apartment complex allowed no pets so she would be careful about him. the little fella captured her heart the night she allowed him into her apartment & it insisted in cuddling with her while she slept. effortlessly melting her heart & making a home for himself in its embrace. ' he's been good thus far ... mostly. ' she added & booped his nose again. ' don't bite him. ' she reminded him softly.

' oh? so you believe my name to be pretty? ' she mused aloud with a slight chuckle, but her smile widened at his suggestion. ' cloud. ' she said it out loud. ' oh what a lovely name indeed, your name shall be cloud. ' she instantly decided. besides she felt like naming him should have been a joint effort. ' he reminds so much of you. ' she giggled. he had the blue eyes & his fur was of an identical color as wriothesley's ... & slightly messy. she was endeared by it.

[vaultingfist]

"Oh! So that's what happened to the little fella? I figured you sent it to the pound or something." Though he wasn't much of a cat guy, he couldn't resist the allure of playing with the miniscule white fluffball resting in her arms when it was looking at him with those baby blue eyes.

So without hesisation he'd join her side, taking a seat of the cloudlike matress. Then, just as he tried to use a finger to pet the precious creature, its paws would catch it and pull it into its mouth, growling and teething on his finger. "It's got spirit," Wriothesley spoke in a chuckle. In truth, it was about as vicious as Furina on her worst days. "Have you decided on a name? Might I suggest Senor fluffy butt? " He paused before changing his mind. "Or a pretty name like his lovely keeper. How about Cloud?"

@vaultingfist: “Your tactics confuse and frighten me.”

' tactics you say? oh me, oh my, whatever it is that you could be meaning must be going well beyond my head. ' she responded as she sat up by the edge of her bed with the small kitten she had just been spoiling with an overflowing chalice of love & affection. the kitten he had spotted during the winter when he walked her back home. ' do not pay attention to him, my little pwince. ' she cooed sweetly at the kitten who meowed at her whilst safekept 'pon her arms.

' he's only being dramatic. he's happy to see you too. ' she insisted & reassured the small animal, turning it upon her arms to face wriothesley as she gently took hold of one of his small paws to paw at the air in his general direction. ' isn't that right sir tall, dark, & handsome? ' she raised a fine brow in amusement.

When she had broken off and froze like a deer in front of a Gardamek, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed about the situation.

"Ah, I suppose it's natural for someone foreign to Fontaine see it as odd. But after everything you've done, everyone here sees you as one of us. That's just a way we have of greeting each other; it's called 'la bise'; usually, it involves two kisses, though."

@vaultingfist has chosen to kiss Lumine on the cheek.

"...!!"

His actions certainly caught the otherwordly Traveler off guard, body frozen in place and cheeks burning bright red all of a sudden.

"Oh...? What did I do to deserve a kiss from the Duke himself?"

[vaultingfist]

Ah Liyue, the land of golden hills and fine tea, it was a playground for a man of Wriothesley's interests. Exploring each hill and cliff, looking for the most exquisite leaves that were unavailable on his side of the world. However, the Duke found himself lost more often than not, being chased away from protected trees by the nation's guard, receiving fines from local farmers, and even being chased away from the high mountains by a very frustrated talking crane. This rare vacation was proving to be a total bust. Was there truly no one here who had a taste for the finer things in life?

Pride may have taken multiple blows, but a determination was up through the roof; he operated best when things were dire, and there was one last place he hadn't checked, a place where, according to the locals, not a living person or beast dwelled. It was perfect; the ghoulish and dark leaves were sure to carry a flavor unlike any other. With a smile and an empty box in his hands, he would scale up the gloomy hill, a smile on his lips as he got picking the trees around the ruined village.

The higher he scaled up into Wuwang, the more eerie things got; a thick fog plagued the grounds he walked on.... moisture would be great for the leaves here, but as he got picking yet again, the hairs on his neck jumped as a Fatui agent ran right past him in absolute terror. Then a gunslinger, a hammer wielder, a debt collector, and finally a cicin mage disappeared into the fog with their screams following. A single brow raised as he continued to see what all the trouble was about. Just as he took another step out of the fog, he heard the voice of a petite woman. Then, before he could even react, a flaming polearm slashed the box of leaves in his hand. Despair followed by fury washed over him as the accumulation of his labor burned to ash.

A vein popped, and mechanical gauntlets booted up with his elemental energy, humming with a surplus of power; in a moment, a wall of ice was erected between them to make some distance. One leg shifted in front of the other with fists raised up in a guard. a few seconds and the wall shattered as he lunged through it, sending a shockwave of spikes straight toward her. Shouting with genuine anger under his tongue, he shouted, "I worked too hard to have a little geek mess up my plans. Lay down your arms, or I'll turn you into ice cubes!"

@vaultingfist / Wriothesley

Wuwang Hill was a place where time didn't seem to exist. The aspect of it getting lost in its eternally darkened grey skies. And yet there had been plenty of times Hu Tao would venture to this pocket of the Liyue region. What better to place to perform burial rites?

The funeral director had arrived during the night. Or she had assumed it was such. She did recall the sun setting on her journey there. Regardless she had soon set up her site where the her usual ritual would be performed.

It was said that nearby was the case of a deserted village that was brought to ruin by a proclaimed "disaster". Truly this meant there was some restless spirits. And Hu Tao had tasked herself to be the one to continuously cleanse the area of such negative energies. After all, she was on a little break from her usual marketing schemes for the funeral parlor.

She always enjoyed the solitude....

Oh.

Just as soon as she used her pyro vision to light the fire that was suppose to burn away impurities she picked up on the sound of footsteps trudging from behind her. It was the kind that sounded rather solid and threatening.

Hu Tao let out an annoyed sigh. She didn't even have time to recite the ritual prayer when she had been interrupted. Of coarse they would come back for revenge. There was at least four of them this time. Adding an extra to make some reinforcements, huh? At least two of them were the common heavy set skirmishers. Along with this they were accompanied by an agent and cicin mage.

The director turned facing the incoming Fatui members. Her polearm clutched in her hand. "Aiya.. I know Wangsheng Parlor has enlisted you as clients, but you can't be that eager to begin your own funeral services" she jested, as she took no time using the crimson winged tipped weapon to consecutively jab at the both both the agent and skirmishers.

Thanks to her surprising agility she was able to the avoid those beginning counter attacks. At points it looked like she could even pass through the enemy if she timed her speed just at the right moment.

That wasn't to say she was having some trouble. The annoying cicins the mage had summoned certainly made it a confusing battlefield. As soon as she could she used her vision to initiate her elemental burst, summoning a blazing spirit that would wildly attack the group of four....

Wait... when did the fifth one even get there?? No matter the Fatui always had sly ways of calling for backup. Clearly that was the case when she saw Wriothesley within the same vicinity. While her spirit companion busied itself the other Fatui...

Hu Tao made an impulsive dash at the Fontanian. Her polearm pointed in such a way that it would horizontally pierce forward at his midsection. At least for the first initial attack. Though this time there was a burning energy to this said attack . The director had no intent on holding back either as she continued her attack in hopes of connecting a strike so she could return and take care of the rest.

"Geez, how many of you are they going to keep sending?" ~

[vaultingfist]

Oh, how it took every fiber of his being to fight off the cocky look forming on his face; no need to rub salt in her wounds when she was very clearly hurting from before. Wriothesley simply wore a smile, stood up, and spoke warmly with a hand on the hip. "How could I say no to such a cute tomato, huh?" The Duke chuckled into his hand before holding a hand out to her. "I had a feeling you'd say yes, Furina. Come, I know the perfect spot for tonight."

By the hand, he would guide her, having commissioned someone to procure all the nation's most famed desserts and a bottle of wine in a picnic basket provided by himself. Walking through town, one would see children running through the streets with their kites and new toys, couples sharing a kiss with the new year on the way, and vendors doing their best to clear out their stalls before the show began. At long last, at the edge of the docks, they'd meet the water brightened up by the glow of the moon.

"Give me one second." Freeing his hand, he walked onto the water, his vision shining brightly as he molded that cryo energy into a makeshift boat with a table and chair to go along, sea-worthy as any other boat would be. Once again, he would wear that boyish smile with the table set up. "Watch your step." He hummed, holding his arm out to grab. Once in their seats, he would create makeshift paddles to guide them out to the center of the harbor and dispose of said paddles once it was time to set up the Liyue pear wine, the moon cakes, almond tofu, and almond crisps.

Out there, it was just the two of them, nothing but the distant sound of the town brightly lit up. There, he would sigh, recline back, and take a bite of the tofu. "Man, it's been quite the year, huh?"

truth be told furina was just expecting him to ask properly. just the question itself to be delivered as it should, a question, a proposal for a date. she was not expecting him to do ... all of this! she wasn't bothered by it, she was caught unawares was all! it was clear as day by the shade of red that spread across her cheeks & colored her face into that of a bashful maiden not expecting to be entirely courted in such a fashion. the heart in her chest hammered away almost so loudly she could hear it clearly & for a moment she was paralyzed in place, her breath caught in her throat, momentarily swept up by his gallant disposition & such praises coming from those lips of his.

' i-! ' i wasn't being serious, i wasn't being serious! the phrase chanted in her mind on repeat within a pocket of time, the heat on her face failing to do her any favors on just how well she was taking this. he was charming, she had no doubt in her mind that he was but to this degree? a pleasant surprise, an extra slice of joy almost! he could easily just be faking this to get back at her for how she put him on the spot & for a moment she could have sworn that it was, but then suddenly it wasn't.

she cleared her throat when she was certain she wasn't going to make a bigger fool of herself than she already had. ' i-i would love to, wriothesley if you would have me. ' furina was able to make that declaration without stuttering so much now that the shock of his actions & her risen bashfulness slowly descended.

this backfired on her completely, she realized & pouted slightly.

thanks for the little doodle prompt @1fr0ggy <3

[vaultingfist]

are they openly flirtatious/sexual, or are they quite private?

For the Duke of Fontaine, it really depends on who he is interacting with. If a stranger comes up to him and tries to strike up conversation he keeps it at a respectful and dignified tone, he is the Duke and Administrator of Meropide so theres a certain level of professionalism and discipline he likes to maintain for his image.

However

If you are someone he is close to or someone he is interested in, his playful and sarcastic side will come out. When he is in pursuit he will be openly flirtatious around you without an ounce of shame. Essentially there is a wall to get through if you want that sort of engagement from him

[vaultingfist]

I want to touch his hair🥺
