What am I looking for anyway? [Action | Like, everywhere]

[flirtninja]

[Morning finds Edge wandering about Garden. Not looking lost, precisely, but looking as if he lost something and doesn't even know what it is.]

[Every so often he stops to peer at some object. A clock, a railing, a sign, something floating in the lobby's water. After a moment he frowns, shakes his heads, and moves on.]

Comments

[Kate arches an eyebrow as she watched Edge start intently at a nearby clock. She has a bow in one hand and her quiver strapped to her back.]

...See something you like?

[flirtninja]

No, and that's the problem! Quick, you're a girl, what do girls like to get for presents from the guys they're seeing?

[donttouchmybow]

Uhhh [Blinks. It's not that the question has her stumped, but rather she wasn't expecting it.] Well, I can't speak for all girls, as we're all different, but typically we like something that shows that you've been listening or paying attention to what we like.

[flirtninja]

The girl in question likes ranged weapons and animals. The latter she's got a bunch of, and the former, I don't want to get because I couldn't get something anywhere nice as she deserves and would want without spoiling the surprise. And she's already got nice weapons too!

So I'm kinda stumped.

[donttouchmybow]

[Crosses her arms as she thinks.] Why don't you do something with her, then? Go into town, treat her to a nice dinner. Do they have plays here? Take her to something like that if you think she'd like it.

[flirtninja]

Dinner seems so mundane, though. I mean, I get that memories are good, but I want to give her something physical. But jewelry is trite.

Urgh, if I was back in Eblan I'd just have a portrait commissioned or something! She's a hard one to do nice things for.

[donttouchmybow]

Well I know with me, it would depends on the jewelry. If it looks like you put thought into it, I'd like it more than if it seems to be just picked one at random. But she might not be the jewelry type, so it really depends...

Have you tried wandering through town and seeing if there's anything interesting?

[flirtninja]

Town is my next stop, but I was hoping I'd find something inspiring here. She's from off-world too, so...

Hmm, maybe something for her companions!

[donttouchmybow]

Well if she's off world maybe she might find some of the jewelry here exotic.

You mean her animals?

[flirtninja]

Yes, they're all trained to fight at her side. Not that they do too much of that just around Garden, but I've seen her fox take on things twenty times its size and come away the victor. It's a little scary sometimes.

[donttouchmybow]

That's... kind of really cool.

What would you get for them though?

[flirtninja]

Hmm. Maybe nice collars so everyone knows they're animal companions and not just pets or beasts or something.

...That's IT!

[donttouchmybow]

[Small smile.] Looks like I wasn't any help at all.

[flirtninja]

Hey, I was wandering looking for inspiration and you gave it to me! You were plenty helpful!

[donttouchmybow]

If you want to give me some credit, I'll take it.

[flirtninja]

You've got it! Just don't tell Kat so I can reap all the rewards of this amazing gift when I give it to her!
