action!

[personal profile] sulahnan 2019-10-15 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Some early morning when there isn't much ado in the dining hall, the smell of baked goods wafts in through the window to the Diplomacy Office. It might just be that the kitchens are working hard on quickbreads for the morning meal, or it might be that some enterprising elf has gone out, bought freshly baked sweets, and decided to share.

Why she scaled the outside of the building to get to the office window rather than taking the stairs and knocking on the door is unknown as yet.

But she's out there, holding the wrapped shell-bread and spice-twists and whatnot aloft as if they're her puppets and she's the puppeteer hiding behind the pop-up stage.

Her head pops up into view in the window, and she grins, then scrambles a little less gracefully than usual into the office. "I had a hunch," she starts, digging through the parcel of baked goods and lobbing a sweetbread towards Eshal. "That you'd like these as much as I do."

She looks around for the best place to sit and chooses whatever seems softest, plopping herself down and heaving a sigh like she'd just scaled a building or something. Oh wait.

"I also wanted to know how hard it'd be to climb up here. It's not easy."

"'Kay. That's a fair point," she concedes easily. She did it once and that's all that matters, really. She bites into a loaf with a crackly, crumbly topping, catching the crumbs in her hand so she can funnel them into her mouth instead of letting them fall anywhere. What she really wants is about five gallons of water to chug, mouth dry as all get-out, but she doesn't have five gallons of water. She has pastries and the munchies.

"Have you met our tallest recruit?"

I must apologise for the delay in reaching out, though I expect I don't need to belabor the point of how busy we all are. ( it's wry, rather than passive aggressive; commiserating. she's had eshal's job, she knows. ) Did you still wish to acquaint ourselves? I am, for all my primary work answering to our Scoutmaster, yet a member of your division.

I'd like that very much, ambassador. I shall join you shortly, and I am more than happy to bring the wine.

( mild, but—well, she didn't only drink tea when she kept the office. just mostly, in company. petrana de cedoux has let her hair down maybe once in her time in thedas, it's a closely-guarded secret that she's even capable of it or has a first name.

in any event: a knock precedes her, not long after.

So long as it isn't crowded by her co-head or a head in a jar, then fine. As he pulls the door shut behind him:

"Tell me about the conversation you had with Kitty Jones."

There are only so many ways to reach the higher levels of the tower and the division offices. That they haven't run directly into one another before this point is definitive proof of the divine.

He is climbing up the stairs and she is going down them.

[personal profile] katabasis 2019-10-28 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
He sees her. He doesn't stare and has forgotten what it's like to be drawn short by much of anything.

But for the record, that does it - breeds some flicker of bewilderment and irritation that has him shifting from the center of the stairwell to one side as he continues climbing. What? say the crooked lines of his expression, though the word isn't actually voiced.

I can come to your office. It's related to your work, so that's probably the best place.

[Sorrel is a man prone to deliberately not encountering terrifyingly large and/or muscular humans, if he can avoid it. He also knows how to bake dainty little pastries filled with pulpy jam. These two facts have found confluence in this, the Secret Satinalia gift; a basket of pastries he is currently leaving in front of Eshal's door. They are warm and fragrant and dusted with sugar, all snuggled in safe under their linen cover.

There is also an elf.
]

Uh.

[Sorrel very clearly did not expect to be caught in the act of delivering his gift. He is not entirely sure he is going to survive this encounter. He is considering, almost visibly, something very stupid, like throwing out a screen of fire, or simply throwing the basket at her head and running. He is not a very quick thinker, our Sorrelean.]

...h-happy Satinalia?

[Nailed it.]
