Good day, Elysia. [ apparently, the more light-hearted and sillier greeting of, 'miss elysia, miss pink elf, miss ellie' is exclusive to her streams. ]
It's been quite some time since your arrival to this new world, hasn't it? If you don't mind my asking, I'm curious to know: is there anywhere in the city that you favor above all else, by any chance?
( definitely better than just 'miss elysia', but she'll let him off the overly polite 'good day' for now... just a hi would've been perfect!! )
Somewhere I favor? (´･ω･`)? Hmmm... Belle Ville is nice, isn't it? Everyone is kind, and the streets are always lively, and maybe I have a soft spot for it, since it's where we arrived first... Something like our hometown, I think.
Won't you tell me more about your hometown, if you don't particularly mind doing so? Which part of Belle Ville resembles it the most, for example? The northern area or the south?
My my, Phainon~ Are you curious about me? I might just be an open book for you if you ask the right questions~
But my hometown wasn't anything like Belle Ville. It was a small village where we all knew each other, with a beautiful forest surrounding it. Hmmm, maybe it's something more like Kelesis?
( if they just ignore that kelesis completely warded them off, and they don't actually know what kelesis looks like. )
[ he hasn't a clue on how to address his curiosity, much less approach it. their initial conversation, upon that day they've first met, satiated enough for the time being. anything more is simply phainon going with the flow nowadays. ]
Attempting to find a place of residence near Kelesis seems a little foreboding considering the odds and our less than stellar reception that we received as an Augmented collective.
[ someone whose origins also involves a village hometown though? he won't make his intrigue too obvious yet. instead: ]
But I do wonder of the prerequisites. Something like, one ought to be pure of heart to be deemed worthy of passage into the city?
Phainon! You don't think I'm pure of heart? I'm so hurt!
( she's not, but it's the teasing that matters! )
I don't think it's anything to do with us. It could be that they don't have a very good relationship with Karterians, and they associate us with them. But it would be nice to visit it one day, wouldn't it? When they trust us a little more.
Hmm~ But if you're really worried about a living place, how about somewhere closer to the beach? With an accessible roof! It's making for watching the sunrise easier like that, don't you think?
Once their doors are opened to us and we're able to request for an elaborate tour to better understand their home, perhaps Kelesis can be a future candidate.
[ little do they know, kelesis is gonna feel like a fever dream. ]
But somewhere closer towards the shore, then. Between Water's Edge and East Sophia? Would that be your ideal place of residence?
[ he hasn't even dropped the Big Question yet though ]
You're making plans that ahead in the future already? But if that happens, you have to promise me we'll take that tour together. Everything is better when you have a friend with you, after all!
( she's also stealing that chimera sticker. not that it matters but it's too cute!!!
she can also like, totally see through phainon, but it'd be too mean if she didn't play along, wouldn't it? but it doesn't mean she can't tease him. for example: )
Mhm mhm! That wouldn't be bad at all, would it? But have you been to Basileios before, Phainon? ( literally on the other side of karteria, mind, ) Everything is so pretty and bright~ It wouldn't be so bad to get a house there either... Places that shine that beautifully at night are hard to resist, don't you think?
[ elysia, please. phainon can only afford them 3 months worth of rent at a place like basileios!! ]
Basileios... How should I say this? It's something of a culture shock, I think, though I do not disagree. It's a sight to behold for visitors from elsewhere, and I'm partial towards the park that resides within its borders. I may need some time to get used to the general ambiance of it as I'm still quite unfamiliar with it, however.
[ suffice to say: it's a far cry from aedes elysiae, influencing his opinion somewhat. he won't even start with the citizens... being quick to judge isn't really his thing, so he tries his best not to be, still. ]
But, along with my promise to accompany you to see what Kelesis may have to offer, perhaps a stroll around Basileios, with you as my guide, in return may allow me to appreciate the differences it shares with my own hometown.
( look at this silly boy, being so considerate with her wishes, teasing as they might be. it's like bullying a puppy, and she would almost feel bad. almost! )
Is it really that different? Then, to add to our promise... If you tell me about your hometown during our tour, I will tell you about mine. How about it?
( not that she's looking for similarities between his and kevin's, for elysia never truly knew much about kevin's past. but maybe this is what she's looking for, isn't it? the differences. what makes phainon phainon, and not a shadow of kevin. )
Is that what you texted me for? Trying to find out more about my preferences and where I'm from? Even a pretty girl has secrets, you know~
Hahaha, I understand. Pretty girls are within their right to withhold what they must. I won't hold it against you or them.
But I figured I'd allow myself something of a head-start while I'm still permitted free room and board. I'm grateful for the Valencia's hospitality, however finding a new home for myself is a venture I'd like to endeavor in without delay.
If you happen to be in a similar situation or would like to take a stroll regardless of the objective, I've decided to extend that invitation to you, Elysia. I've a feeling that you've quite the eye on matters such as this, and I'm certain it is of my best interest to trust your judgment.
Besides, our shared promise needn't await for Kelesis' approval.
