[ He is indeed! He's passing a strawberry to the faerie perched on his shoulder. ]

[leucocholy]

[ ...!!

As she comes up: ]

Oh my goodness, who's this?

[inklongdry]

This is my companion, Clover.

Clover, this is Alpha.

[leucocholy]

Nice to meet you, Clover! You're very pretty.

[ With that taken care of, Alpha digs into her pocket to produce her tokens pouch, opening it up to tug out his tokens. ]

And these are for you! Just remember that Echidna tokens don't last forever, so make sure you use them.

[inklongdry]

[ Clover preens a little, fluttering her wings.

Arthur, for his part, will take those tokens when offered. ]

Thank you. I look forward to finally having aught else to wear apart from these dreadful stripes.

[leucocholy]

Oh, yes, that's a good use for them. You'll have to show me your cool new clothes when you get them!

[inklongdry]

I most certainly shall.

Of course, now I have to decide what to request.

[leucocholy]

Hmmm... okay!

Close your eyes...!

[inklongdry]

Hm? Very well.

[ CLOSES EYES?? ]

[leucocholy]

Nowww... imagine yourself wearing something that feels right! In just this exact moment.

[inklongdry]

[ His eyebrows jump up, but he smiles, eyes still shut. ]

I see... thank you. This was an incredibly helpful little exercise.

[leucocholy]

Heheh... I'm glad that it helped!

And don't worry too much about it. After a few days, you can always come get more tokens.

[inklongdry]

True enough. You'll be hearing from me again, in that case.

Though certainly I would enjoy your company outside of asking for tasks.

[leucocholy]

I'd like that a lot too! We can be friends too, if that's okay with you.

There's a lot I wanna learn about the place you're from!

[inklongdry]

I would like that very much. And I am, of course, happy to tell you about Eorzea, so long as you share some stories in return.

[leucocholy]

That sounds great! We can trade stories--oh, I know! Do you like coffee? Tea?

[inklongdry]

Oh-- yes, that is a good idea! I'm partial to tea.

[leucocholy]

Great! If you tell me how you like it, I can brew some for us for the next time we talk. Swapping stories is better over a nice hot drink.

[inklongdry]

I cannot say I'm particularly picky about the tea itself, and I am always willing to try something new.

[leucocholy]

[ she claps her hands together lightly. ]

Okay then! I'll just make whatever comes to mind for our next chatting session. I'm really excited now!

[inklongdry]

As am I. There are a great many things to dislike about this place, 'tis fortunate indeed that the people are largely not one of them.

[ You know. Mostly. ]

[leucocholy]

Mmhm, I think so too! I've never seen so many people in one place, to be honest... I'm really enjoying that part of things!

[inklongdry]

Really? Are there no large cities or towns near to where you live?

[leucocholy]

Hmm... there's a city a few days' travel away, but... there just aren't really that many people all at once, even there, usually.

[inklongdry]

Why is that?
