no subject
He smiles back cheerfully! Sooooo determined to see that face but also get into the tower without being stopped.]
Yes. Maybe you'll join me for lunch some time.
[He'll leave without a fuss but the Exarch can't lurk in the tower ALL the time. While he bides his time he'll make a plan for distracting guards and otherwise get to know people and make himself useful with the skills he has, which aren't negligible. Though they aren't "I spent 100 years getting ready"]
no subject
But surprisingly enough, after a few days, G'raha is in fact being invited to lunch with the Exarch, at the little coffee-cookie cafe.]
no subject
He's surprised by the invitation but it's a perfect opportunity isn't it? All he has to do is sneak a reflective surface under the Exarch's chair... he might finally see that face! Of course he accepts and goes, in high spirits.]
no subject
Ah, you came after all. Good afternoon.
no subject
[He plops himself down across from the Exarch, contemplating how to be a sneaky cat.]
I didn't think you'd actually though.
no subject
I have good reason to keep an eye on you, do I not? I may as well be forward and mannerly about it.
no subject
[He leans his chin on his hand and pouts.]
Nothing about you is forward either. All secrets.
no subject
You snuck into the tower on your very first day. Even you must admit that is causing trouble.
[sips again, bolstering his nerves.]
'Tis true. I have a great many secrets to protect. But I do try to be direct in what ways I can.
no subject
So you say.
[He grabs a menu, looking it over before he flags down a waiter. Giving his order he leans his chin on his hand again.]
You haven't even told me about this body of mine. It's not real is it?
no subject
no subject
[He's surprised. Mystery guy?? Don't you know everything? Nnmh. Well. Even G'raha isn't sure and it's his own body. Krile would know. This is her jam. But Krile isn't here.]
no subject
no subject
no subject
It was most certainly not my intent to leave you defenseless in the wilderness.
no subject
Sure.
[He leans back as his cake arrives.]
no subject
I told you my plans for your warrior, did I not? What part of that would be served by ditching them with the Sin Eaters without their gear?
no subject
[He waggles his fork as he theorizes.]
No. I think it's more likely that you did leave the summoning unfinished. But because... if I were whole isn't there a chance my aetherial connection to the source would be strong enough to let me travel back? Then I could warn the Scions. But this way I'm stuck. But unharmed.
[He contemplates his hand.]
For now, at least.
no subject
[he nibbles a cookie, clearly thinking.]
Having body and soul separated like this will certainly have averse effects, true. First to be impacted would be your body, however. Where were you, when I summoned you? Safe with allies?
[as if he doesn't know.]
no subject
[He lies easily, totally unaware. Well, he thinks the Exarch might know something but. He waggles his fork again. Technically his body is somewhere safe, at least.]
You're going to say you don't know how to send me back, right? I already figured.
no subject
[sets down his half eaten cookie.]
As for your soul, will you allow me to conduct an examination on you?
no subject
[He doesn't have anyone else here who can probably.]
no subject
no subject
Grumbling he goes after it under the table, but what he's really trying to do is palm a mirror and use it to glance up the Exarch'a face while he retreives the fork.]
no subject
and then a sandaled foot pins the mirror and G'raha's hand under it to the floor.]
Really? Trying to see up an old man's skirts at your age? It seems we have found the pervert.
no subject
Shamelessly he tries to wiggle his hand from the Exarch's foot.]
If you hide so deliberately of course I'm going to want to see even more.
