So when shall we play? I should warn you, I'm not above pestering my friends for games. You should come by the house soon. Meet Blade and Rhys if he's there. He's ah...I'm contracted to him, but he's a friend.
You can rest assured that I am well aware of your feelings about chess, Cullen. [He teases just a bit.] I'd love to meet everyone who has become important to you.
[It's reassuring in a way, the similarities. It does make this easier, makes all of it feel more familiar than meeting a total stranger.]
I'd like that, too. Not like we really need much of an excuse for a get-together. I'll have you to dinner, and then we can have a game if you don't mind staying up late. Perhaps a Friday evening.
Wonderful. Just give me a few ideas of what you like to eat, or alternately can't stand, and I'm sure I can do a table some justice. I'm finally getting used to how quickly the range cooks.
It is strange, though, how they have things that save real food for longer than natural, and yet they still have all of that fake stuff? Convenience comes with sacrifice, I suppose.
Yes, it's very strange. It's not even something I'd want on a campaign. Not filling enough, not something that would sustain you in a fight. Not truly food at all. It might last until it's opened. It's hardly a good trade off.
[He brightens a bit with a thought.]
They do have very nice wines here. I'll be sure to have a good one. Do you prefer red or white? And sweet or dry?
((OOC: Here is that log thread. I have a reply under it specifically for interacting with Cullen if you like, with a prompt for Cyril or a wildcard option if you prefer. Rhys has been invited to it, too, if you want Cyril to meet him. I figured just do it that way rather than bother with some sort of tag order would be easiest.))

I'll keep it simple. I'm less likely to ruin it or send you running that way.

Date: 2020-04-13 05:13 am (UTC)I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Now you know where I live. Barring any strangeness the city may throw our way, I'll put this together, and we can have a proper dinner soon.
((OOC: And I plan to put up a catch all log for Cullen in the next couple of days if you'd like me to do something for this.))
