[This week, Varric opted to take a page from Vanille’s book. Gathering everyone together after the roller-coaster that the first trial had been proved to be somewhat cathartic for himself. He hoped that it would prove to do the same for the others.]

[He wasn’t alone, of course, having found himself blessed with the most ragtag team of chefs and party-planners. He might have had words for and thoughts on Elda and Kimbley, Mikazuki was welcome company, and he wasn’t about to turn away potential allies, even in a fight as simple as cooking dinner.]

[Once everyone’s set to a task, baking a cake, brewing tea, or stirring stew (the only task Varric could think to assign Elda to), Varric excused himself to his room. His first task was writing up cards, each personally titled and signed by Varric.]

Food in the Library. 5 p.m. Don’t spend the night alone.

[Each note was slid under a door and accompanied by a single rap on the wood.]

[With his tasks completed, Varric returned to the kitchen to put out any potential fires and, with luck, set the food out. A table in the library would be adorned with plenty of tea, cake, pancakes courtesy of Viktor, and stew thanks mostly to Varric (sorry, Elda).]

Watanuki thought that I flirt with you a lot. I've got no idea what he's talking about.

[he's gonna string that nerd up by the kimono]

If that's you flirtin', then I've gotta give you lessons.

I'm not trying to. I'm not interested.

I'm just sayin' that he's full of shit and you ain't gotta worry about a thing! You ain't my type.

Which is why you told Elda we're in an open relationship.

[Like he doesn't even know what an open relationship is, but he's pretty sure Gold's the one that's full of shit here.]

[................................ fuckle my shuckle]

I panicked.

How'd you get that out of panicking?

I thought it'd be a good idea to have some kinda cover for stayin' together and apparently we pull off the datin' thing real well. Besides, bein' in an open relationship means that we're not seriously datin'. It's basically faking.

...What, "we're friends and I don't want to find your corpse in the morning" isn't enough?

[why are they having this conversation]

Can we just forget about this? She's gonna tease the hell out of us anyway, she's a jerk.

...As long as we're on the same page.

[...]

There ain't anything wrong with havin' a relationship though, you know. Even for someone like you. Wouldn't say this is the place to have it, but it ain't a bad thing to have someone that's got your back and doesn't mind doin' stupid shit like holdin' your hand and cuddlin'.

[...Like holding his hand and cuddling, huh.]

You're right. This place is horrible for relationships.

[And someone that's got his back...]

And I don't have time for them at home, so it doesn't matter.

[not only is gold rich, he's made of boyfriend material??]

You say you don't, but you're gonna have off time eventually. Even if you don't think so now! Just don't get hooked into someone so easily, girls like a guy they can't have.

[...Silver shakes his head; Gold just said he's not interested, and... He's just not thinking straight because of the scuffle he had with Elda. That's all.]

If you say so.

Trust me, your schedule is gonna clear up and then you'll find yourself with nothin' to do. Then what's your plan?

...Hang out with you?

[...]

Eh, fine. I'll take you for a proper tour of Johto since you were all business goin' through it, there is so much we've gotta do together!

...Unless you want to trek through Ice Path, I've seen most of it.

[He does live there, Gold-]

[goddammit silver]

Ever seen the Kimono Girls of Ecruteak?

...Not up close.

So there! You might've seen most of Johto, but you haven't experienced it!

[... Which is important. Way more important!]

I'm positive Crys'd agree. So we'll all hang out and experience Johto. Or go to Alola, whichever.

...We could learn about fairy types and Z-moves.

[Let's go to Alola-]

And if all the babes there are as hot as Lusamine, the tropics ain't the only thing that's gonna be heatin' me up!

[... I'm so sorry.]

Man's paradise! Sun, warmth, good food, good company! Scary ghost stories that're just stories! Crys'll be happy to see all the new Pokémon too, if she hasn't gone already on business~.

I want to check out that mountain.

[Of course he'd be interested in fuck off ice land. Of course he would.]
