Nothing is sacred anymore, is it? not even his office although he knows that particular color of portal by now and that its recipient is mostly harmless. They just derive entertainment from his and Neuvi's interactions and in that aspect they're quite similar to most melusines.

"Taxes" he answers short and straight to the mage's first question.

"The tea is Lapsang Souchong by the way. I can make you a cup if you want."

To say he was initially quite pissed today was the understatement of the century. Like sure he had spent time with his sister and the proxies celebrating his birthday ( he didn't really do that in the past years for various reasons, one of them being the bitter memories associated with the day).

But today one person, the one he awaited a message from the most didn't say a thing besides the usual good morning.

It was almost evening and he didn't get a bloody damn sign from this mutt, how dare he toy with his heart like that and after how courteously he was forgiven for other past misgivings.

So when he opened the door to his room he was quite taken aback( in a good way) to see the wolf wrapped like a present (literally).

While he was still a little pissed off he was also quite flustered so he closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down.

🏞️ - Favourite place

"Besides my home there's a specific hill in the Erinnyes where I like to sunbathe, or occasionally have a picnic there"

🎶- Favourite song

"The other Abyss Mages were very content about the shirtless taxes. Here, have this," the Mage pulls out a piece of a very squished chocolate cake (no wrapping) out of their pocket and once again puts it in Wriothesley's hand. At least this time it is not half-eaten, but you get a very awkward feeling that there was once icing on this cake and someone licked it clean off.

"This is for the Constellation. But the next time you give me a Mona first, I may actually do something evil. So be warned," they say in a way which doesn't sound the least bit intimidating, then goes back into the Rift and disappears.

When he sees the rift again he wonders what news and demands is the mage going to bring.

"Yeah so content I got caught in a bubble at some point. Of course the kidnap attempt wasn't successful, after all i'm quite dedicated to one person only." he replies back half joking

"I accepted to drink one of Sigewine's milkshakes in order to bribe her to use the bubble gun and get revenge for me" he says with a snicker remembering the mage that caught him being caught in the melusine's bubble repeatedly

"Don't worry you're safe because at least you know how to ask me respectfully about stuff"

He places the cake on the saucer from his tea cup. Of course judging it also looks touched he will once again make some of the resident crabs very happy, or who knows perhaps he will take it upside and feed it to one of the vishaps. They have been very cuddly lately.

// HELLO THANK YOU FOR THE FOLLOW!!!!!!!!

justice: favorite color of rose?

"It's actually going to sound really cheesy but I like pink and white roses the best followed very close by blue roses ( this one is obvious why)" the duke replies with a soft longing smile "The first two however are because of the meaning behind them"

temperance: can you describe a strange dream you’ve had?

"Judging some of the weird stuff I see in the fortress I don't know if my dreams would qualify as strange or normal. Although there was this one dream where my teapot gained legs and kept running away from me"

the tower: favorite colors to wear?

"Blue because I love stealing my husband's coats and silk kimonos. They're comfortable and smell like him it's a double win for me, plus he steals some of my clothes too from time to time(daily).

Other than that there's like a pair of gray sweatpants I love to wear."

you have been USED

"If you missed my headpats this much you should have told me" the man says with a smirk on his face followed by picking the mage like a cat.

He always wondered if they're as fluffy as they look and looks like he was proven right.
