[ Anyone Looking for Accommodations in the City Royale ]

[There's an address written in.]

Rent's paid through next month. Take it, I don't care. Landlord will be thrilled, I'm sure.

If there's more than one of you, settle it yourselves.

Quite the entertainer, our Paradisa. Parties and festivals and carnivals and balls. Don't know how you're not all sick of them, they happen frequently enough.

[He doesn't sound that bothered, though. In fact, there's a distinct upward swing to his tone. Someone's in a good mood for the first time in a long, long while.

There's a pause, and his voice starts to wander like he's splitting his attention.]

Still, can't complain. This one has the potential to be decently interesting. Ah, excellent.

[There's faint hissing in the background, from what sounds to be at least two or three of the fairies.]

Oh, be quiet. That's hardly the worst I could have done.

[workaphilic]

Not so much anymore, no.

[hullo_sweetie]

Ah, so you partied hard in your youth? Got to be a bit much or did you just get bored?

[workaphilic]

Priorities changed.

[It's not an era of his life he likes talking about much.]

[hullo_sweetie]

I see. Well, are you planning on attending the party here?

[workaphilic]

Depends on whether or not I'm given a reason to.

[hullo_sweetie]

I'll be there, if that's even remotely interesting to you.

[workaphilic]

Don't see why it should be. I'm perfectly capable of speaking to whomever I like without having to attend an event.

[hullo_sweetie]

You have a point there, but surely you know by now that the castle's probably going to do something at the party. Probably something interesting.

[workaphilic]

Oh, it'll probably do something. Probably not anything worth my time, though.

[hullo_sweetie]

Ah well, if you change your mind I guess I'll know when I see you there.

[workaphilic]

You might.

[But she might not. It really does depend on what happens to get him there. If he goes at all.]
