A Belated Delivery and Perhaps a Chat (CLOSED)

[knighterrantofthedragon]

WHO: Alric and Tiamaris
WHAT: Alric has a rather late Christmas present to deliver, and a talk to have about a certain recent event.
WHERE: Tiamaris' room (at least for starters)
WHEN: After the Hellfire Club event, in the evening
WARNING(S): None anticipated



Alric stepped up to Tiamaris' door and knocked--although he couldn't be sure that was the place to find him, he'd seemed somewhat reclusive bordering on antisocial, so it seemed like a good first guess. He carried with him a parcel with a somewhat nebulous shape, but fairly large, and likely a bit heavy by the way he supported it. Perhaps it was two relatively large flat-screen monitors bundled together with a bottle of soda? ...probably not.

Of course, it would be a bit awkward to deliver something on the heavy and bulky side if Tiamaris wasn't actually in his room, but judging by their first encounter, awkwardness was likely to figure heavily anyway.

Alric nodded understandingly, pausing a moment before speaking.

"...I... barely remember anything of my mother, either, for what it's worth. Although my step-mother is a truly wonderful woman, and I've called her 'mother' for many years, it's.. not the same. So... I do understand the importance of those... connections."

He smiled a little wistfully to himself.

"......ah.. at any rate. I'm glad you like the statue. And to call you a friend."

[tiamaris]

He swallowed and nodded. His eyes were bright gold as he looked at Alric again. At... his friend. He sat back down on the bed.

"Thank you," he said, softly.

[knighterrantofthedragon]

"My pleasure. I should let you get some rest, though, I imagine. I'll see you later?"

[tiamaris]

He hesitated then nodded once, softly. "A....any time you want to visit," he said softly. He head read a story where the main character always said something like that to his friends. He... had always wanted to try saying it.

Alric smiled and nodded, stepping to the door, pausing on his way out.

"I'll look forward to it. Good night, Tiamaris."

[tiamaris]

He nodded softly. "G....good night."
