♕ deux; [video (French)/text (translated)]

[crotchroses]

I am quite bored here, with so little to do. Perhaps, should anyone in Spero desire friendly company, I could be of service? Nothing with the strings attached, as they say; perhaps a talk on the roof of a building in the starlight or a meeting over lunch or dinner.

--Despite how terrible the food is here, anyway. It is just a little better than

Hn, I wouldn't turn down some company. {Though, some of those suggestions sound suspiciously like DATE ideas but he's just going to assume this is casual. Besides he's kinda lonely with his Bro across the lake.}

... {A little disturbed by the ball of fur, but curious about the wild child you speak of. Sounds a lot like him when he was a kid.}

So you took care of the kid huh?

[Voice; sortofEnglish]

[crotchroses]

Oui! [BRIEF, brief pause:] ... Yes.

It mostly involved fighting!

[Voice]

[dontcallmegol]

Haha, that definitely sounds familiar.

So, if you just wanted to have someone to chat with, I'm out here at the port with the Weather Hardy, our pirate ship. I've still got a mostly full barrel of Spiced Rum below deck, if you're interested in a drink?

I'm always up for making new friends.

[Voice]

[crotchroses]

Would you happen to be Ace, monsieur? And, I really doubt I could pass up such a kind offer!

[Voice]

[dontcallmegol]

That's right. So you've heard of me huh?

And you are?

[Voice]

[crotchroses]

From Marco! He escorted me through Spero upon my arrival.

La République française, monsieur! I am France--but Francis Bonnefoy is my human name.

[Voice]

[dontcallmegol]

Ah, so you're France.

He's mentioned that I should meet you. Seems you remind him of some of our friends from back home. {Which considering he was a country wasn't exactly wrong to say 'some of our friends' even if he only meant two different people you just happen to somewhat resemble/be like.}

[Voice]

[crotchroses]

My reputation proceeds me! You flatter me too much, monsieur. Your friend is a very good man. I'm certain you know that of course.

[Voice]

[dontcallmegol]

{Luckily for France, none of the other countries have really warned him about you. Though he's pretty certain it was you who told Japan to invite Marco out somewhere and get naked, considering his attempt at mimicking you and the accent. But he thought that was hilarious.}

He's got a good heart. Sometimes I wonder about that head about his shoulders but, what can you do? Trouble makes people more fun anyway.

{A pause here.} In any case, I look forward to meeting you Francis.

[Voice]

[crotchroses]

[Hey man it was some honest advi--He mimicked the accent?! Brother France is so proud.]

That it does! And I look forward to our meeting as well. Since you are the resident captain, what might I trade to barter passage across the lake?

[Voice]

[dontcallmegol]

{LOL That he did, it was amazing.}

Hm, good question. There isn't a whole lot to go 'round these parts but whatever you can manage.

Or you can just owe me a favor. {Which Ace means generally information, advice, I'm sure as a country you have plenty of knowledge to go 'round if he should need it. Or a good story. Though it could be anything.}

((ooc: Comment log?))

[crotchroses]

[LINK I can't believe I missed this.]

Mm, but a favor could be anything! We'll speak more on this when we meet, oui?

[Sounds good to me bro!]

[Voice ---> Action]

[dontcallmegol]

{ Here ya go.}

Fair enough. See you soon.

{And Ace will be sitting up on his ship, perched on the rail sideways so one foot is up and the other is dangling off towards the deck. He's got a bottle of rum in hand that he just pulled from the keg below deck, poured into an old wine bottle they've been reusing. He swigging off of it and watching the sunset.}

[crotchroses]

[The ship is easy enough to spot because, well, it's a ship. Upon approaching, France wanders the docks and throws out a hand in greeting.]

Bonsoir!~

[Action] hrrgh sorry I fail hope you don't mind backtagging liek whoa

[dontcallmegol]

{Ace perks up at the sound of someone's approach and smiles at the blond man. He takes his hand in a firm, yet gentle handshake.}

Ah... it's nice to finally meet you in person Francis. {He's not entirely sure what you just said to him but he assumes it's a greeting.}

[Action] NO it's my fault bro, been trying to get work so rp's been spotty >< I don't mind at all!

[crotchroses]

Likewise, ami! [He returns the handshake and a friendly but unobtrusive embrace before he pulls back.] Strange, to think that this sun is not the one I have always known. Ah, do my eyes deceive me or is that a bottle I see?
