Wow, rude!! If G'raha were the type to pinch or smack, he totally would.
But he's not, so he simply huffs in amusement. ]
The snowy hilltops of Ishgard, the woodlands of the Black Shroud, the deserts of Thanalan, the islands of La Noscea, and the highlands of Gyr Abania. All of it contains their own wonders worth discovering and seeing in full.
[ He's seen many parts and had always pictured going along the Warrior of Light's path with him, but maybe going on an entirely new adventure with Siffrin would be fun too. Watching someone else come upon the sights and sounds of each region would be... irreplicable, he thinks. ]
But it'd be nice to learn what they are, head tilting curiously at the terms and then understanding, in context, that... they're more for leisure, than official work. At least in the way G'raha means. ]
I don't mind being left alone someplace while you do what you need. We could always meet back up for dinner and board. That's how we always ended up our first day in town, and then the second and onward I'd lead everyone to the goodies I found.
[ Yeah, he's not surprised, but he's very much amused, leaning back on his hand as he regards Siffrin. ]
Allow me to hazard a guess, then. You end up doing tasks ranging from gathering tinder for a family to defeating a veritable horde of monsters for a farmer?
[ They'll fall asleep one way or another here, but G'raha allows them that one thing. It's the least he could do after several rounds of bullying, right?
But he lays back on the ground himself, several feet away from them, and turns his head to look towards Siffrin. ]
If you're certain. [ He smiles. ] I will be taking in the night sky.
[ If they all don't fall asleep before then, that is. ]
Their comparisons... honestly? They make him laugh. He can't help it, a soft chuckle escaping him. ]
When you list them in succession in that way... I fear I cannot rebuke the claim. [ A pause. ] I do believe those traits apply to you as well, however.

I never went to school. Probably.
[ Who can say! They don't remember. They peek over their shoulder, then flop back facing him. ]
I'm sure they're impressive. [ Impressively boring. ] But you'd find me at the shores, not the stores.
no subject
You would hesitate so much to accompany me?
[ G'raha doesn't mind, not really. He can get so caught up in reading that he forgets his surroundings and he'd rather not put Siffrin through that. ]
And if I have the idea to join you with my stack of selected tomes?
no subject
I'm just outdoorsy.
[ Sure. ]
And you can, but doesn't salty air damage them?
[ Siffrin wouldn't mind, though. Sitting and watching G'raha read. They aren't going to say this. ]
no subject
I will deign to never bring any rare books, then.
[ He'll be careful!! ]
Ah, but Sharlayan is only one of many places that I could show you. Eorzea has a downright feast of environs I could take you to.
no subject
[ The implied nerd in his amused tone...... Who says environs. ]
I'm more ears than eyes, so tell me some.
[ Before the magic clocks their asses out thank goodness Cain's stupid and this is none of Angelo's business. ]

no subject
But you know he'd be pleased all the same to offer it up to any friend of his, especially ones with a taste for adventure.
You aren't so special. Even if you feel like it right now.) ]
Save me a spot on your next wagon out. A change of scenery... doesn't sound half bad.
[ Even if
that world might be as colorless as this one is right now, to them. At least they know what red is, petals the same dark shade as G'raha's hair. ]
no subject
[ He smiles, knowing that those terms probably mean nothing at all to Siffrin. But, maybe if they're lucky, they're things he can learn about. ]
That is to say... it would be a trip to show you the sights. I wouldn't dare take you on a trip solely for research or business.
[ Though there will be research anyway. Let's be real here. ]

Exercise caution in guiding us to what you've found, otherwise you may be recruited to do work.
no subject
... That happened, too. I'm not... very good, at telling people no...
[ They are
SUCH
a side quest guy, ]

Allow me to hazard a guess, then. You end up doing tasks ranging from gathering tinder for a family to defeating a veritable horde of monsters for a farmer?
no subject
... It wasn't like I had other plans, so...
[ So yes. They just did them. Why not. ]
no subject
[ He's got you pinned, Siffrin. He knows exactly how it works. ]
no subject
I mean, if it was along my way... Why not?
no subject
Let me posit this, then: out of your way. Would you still?
[ Wow it's so fun being the one doing the bullying. ]
no subject
(Ugh.
You don't hate this at all.) ]
Yes.
no subject
[ He's very satisfied with that, and it shows in the way his ears wiggle. ]
You carry a great deal of kindness within your heart.
no subject
(You really don't think you're all that kind. You're just doing what you feel is right.) ]
I'm going to sleep.
[ Great defense there, truly. Definitely not embarrassed, despite the color darkening their ears. ]
no subject
But he lays back on the ground himself, several feet away from them, and turns his head to look towards Siffrin. ]
If you're certain. [ He smiles. ] I will be taking in the night sky.
[ If they all don't fall asleep before then, that is. ]
no subject
so far away, and yet...
...
You want to move closer.
You don't.) ]
I guess you're less a cat and more of a night owl.
[ (Despite it all, you...
... want to keep talking to him.) ]
no subject
I would say I have few cat traits, would you agree?
no subject
you are so
blinding
screwed)
The thoughts do not come out in their expression, which remains a very cool and collected smile. ]
Besides your features? You're curious, clever, you like to wander... Observant too. Sounds cattish to me.
[ And they'd know. Cats are their favorite animal. ]
no subject
Their comparisons... honestly? They make him laugh. He can't help it, a soft chuckle escaping him. ]

no subject
haha
bad.) ]
I do like cats. They're nice to be around, and... they like laying on me. My cloak is warm, I guess. So maybe they rubbed off on me.
[ Siffrin's even got the "I'm going to sit in the same room as you as part of my company" vibe. Except he's an awfully noisy cat, to some people. ]
