Dorian "did I break your concentration" Pavus

[excelsus]

[inconstantly]

What's something you would like to do but for whatever reason haven't gotten around to it?

[for anyone reading: he is not talking sexually you pervs, i know how y'all are]

[excelsus]

Hmmm. Become Queen of Antiva so that I might commandeer all of the Antivan vineyards for my own, personal use, they do make the best wine.

The only thing stopping me is the assassin's guild, the Antivan Crows are terribly particular about who they allow to rule...then there's the stink of Antivan leather.

[inconstantly]

What do you need that for when our own version is much better?

We already have the wine, there are no assassins hunting you that I know of, and your leather smells like leather.

On principle I'd have to stop you from ruling anything, but you're welcome to a purely decorative paper crown.

[excelsus]

But it's Antivan wine, once you've had it all other wine becomes piss and vinegar before it, it's like drinking Sun Blonde Vint-1, everything else is water by compairison.

Oh, I don't know, I mean so many people have had a fair shot at ruling things, I couldn't possibly do any worse.

[inconstantly]

You realize that you're only stoking my curiosity.

I don't doubt it, but I've also told you about my deep mistrust of the ruling class. I'd hate to have a reason to lose faith in you.

[excelsus]

I suppose this means you have to ask more questions.

Oh, John, I do not consider your faith to be something so fragile otherwise you would have already lost it. For you? I'll take that paper crown.

[Because Dorian is part of the ruling class already]

[inconstantly]

Would you be willing to share some of that booze from home? And how drunk does it get you?

[If a paper crown just happens to show up one day on Dorian's bed he probably shouldn't be surprised.]

[excelsus]

If ever I find myself with a supply of wine and other spirits from home you know I would share with you. As for how drunk it can get you, Vint-1 could fluster a Tranquil with a single drop. That's also the recommended dose by the way, so I would say spectacularly drunk.

[A paper crown would warm Dorian's heart, John.]

[inconstantly]

What happens if you take two drops?

[excelsus]

At best you will sick, holed up in a bed for days questioning your choices. At worse? You will be dead...the only positive to being so horribly sick. Delightful isn't it!

[inconstantly]

I think you should acquire some if you can. I can think of nothing more fun than doing something tremendously ill-advised.

But what about here? Is there something you would like to do but haven't that doesn't require any of the trappings of home?

[withimagination]

Yes, hello, excuse me. I'm John's friend and he says you're very handsome. Do you consider John Constantine a handsome fellow?

[JOHN DID IT... Well, no, Eames did it with the help of a truth meme. BUT JOHN SAID IT. and then was mean to Eames, so this is payback.]

[excelsus]

He has the right of it there, I am quite handsome. Ah, well if I am being honest, he is rather fetching a difficult man pull your gaze away from. Wouldn't you agree?

[Let's flip the script a bit.]

[withimagination]

Unfortunately, I can't agree. We're network buddies.

I imagine him as kind of a cute nerd, though. What's your favorite physical feature of his?

[And back to you, Dorian.]

[excelsus]

What a pity.

A pale assessment, but once you've met him you will know. Hmm, I would say his eyes are my favorite physical feature. A set of dark soulful jewels you just want to pluck out and wear as adornments.

[Is that creepy?]

[withimagination]

[NAH, at least Eames is like chinhandsing so NAH]

Soulful, hmmm. I think I like you. Is he always so humorous, and do you like his humor?

[excelsus]

Well then you have impeccable taste, I'm quite likable.

[And so full of it.]

He has moments, but I often find him in good spirits.

[withimagination]

Do you have any embarrassing stories about John?

[Maybe... stop asking a stranger about your friend, Eames.]

[excelsus]

Tks tks. So many questions about John, I am beginning to think you fancy him and you're plying my for juicy tidbits so you might get closer to him.

[withimagination]

[He absolutely giggles a little. Sorry, John.] I haven't even seen his face! I'm very sorry - I can see how you would think that - but I do have my eye on another.

No, mostly I make fun of John, and he attempts to make fun of me back. I was looking for ammunition. I should ask you more questions about you though; forgive me. What do you do for a living?

[(Anonymous)]

He is very charismatic, even without the visual context. Your intentions are easily confusing.

Alas, I have no embarrassing ammunition, and I can only answer truthfully. As for me? I am a rebel archivist, and a mage for an organization called the Inquisition. Unfortunately it doesn't come with a stipend.

[horsepowered]

I've long since respected your optimism about change in your home country. How do you maintain that when the odds seem stacked against the direction you believe it capable of heading in?

[excelsus]

Optimism? I've never been accused of being optimistic before, I suppose it's due to the fact that I see the redeeming qualities in my homeland, I'm aware that not everyone believes in the same tyrannical nonsense, and some things simply have to change. Change isn't easy, a strongly worded letter wouldn't do it...sometimes it takes a hand to force it. I've also been inspired by the Inquisitor who has done so much, a single individual who rose from suspicion and judgment to a seat of power where they could affect the most change. How could I do anything less?

[horsepowered]

I wasn't aware that optimism could be taken as an accusation, in truth. I always thought it was something observed and plainly stated.

But I follow your answer. You have wisdom much, much beyond your years, you know.
