[Because a chair isn't complete without a table, there's a boy wandering around town atop one of those. It makes horse clip-clop sounds when it walks down the street for some reason. Who knows? Actually he's not wandering more than he is shopping, but the horse-table seems to instinctively follow the flying chair's path . . . Lucas doesn't notice; he's too busy staring.]

[Okay, Dist is certainly no stranger to things moving in ways that they really shouldn't, but a walking table is something he has to admit he's never seen before. It takes him a bit to notice that he's being followed, but when he does he turns, inspecting the table curiously.]

Interesting. Is it enchanted?

[He feels stupid asking, but he has to remind himself that fontech is unique to Auldrant, while magic seems almost universal among Mayfield's residents.]

I don't think so. It's just . . . special.

[Mr. Saturn technology is a mystery. The table stops when Dist does and Lucas begins to feel a little awkward.]

Is yours?

Mine is a special type of technology. Very difficult to explain to someone who isn't familiar. You don't know how the table works?

[He reaches out to touch it, curious.]

[Totally watching this completely flabbergasted before... before...]

[BEFORE HE CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE AND BUSTS OUT LAUGHING. Not mockingly so, either. That is the best thing he's seen all day. He can't help himself.]

Holy crap, dude! What is that?!

[Well, laughter is laughter, and when it's directed at Dist he can't help but be slightly irritated.]

It's a chair. Can't you tell?

[He slaps a hand over his mouth, still giggling but stopping for the most part.]

No, really? But it ain't every day I see someone flyin' about like the Wicked Witch of the West on one. Where in the world did ya get it? Or did ya make it?

[Looks like you've gained an audience of one, Dist. This little squid is following your chair around everywhere it goes, staring curiously.]

[Ohoho, an admirer! Dist turns, giving a little flourish.]

Isn't it wonderful?

Yeah, it's awesome! How does it fly like that?

It's easy; I just trace the directions here.

[He tilts the chair forwards a bit and taps the front of the arm rest; there's really nothing visible there, but given that his hand is pretty much constantly touching that spot it's believable.]

It's a jewel of fontech, I'll tell you. Like all of my inventions, there's nothing like it back home! It's even built without a hover drive, can you believe it? It's one of my older inventions, but it still functions as though it were new, of course...

[You got him gloating. You have no one to blame but yourself.]
