[Edward doesn't usually send Furina pictures of what he's set at her statue as an offering. It's usually the same thing: a basket of chocolates, baked goods, and a scrumptious homemade dish, courtesy of Bonnet the chef rat, wrapped tightly up to keep the seagulls from getting to it.
Today's offering is a bit different and, surprisingly, doesn't come with Edward jumping off the very top of her head. There are the ever-present chocolates and baked goods, of course, but there's also a...burger? With a skull-and-crossbones paper flag stuck in the top?]
It's been a rough couple of weeks for all of us, so I thought this might amuse you. The burger's from a restaurant that alleges to be pirate-themed.
It's terrible. The music is from this century, the costumes are from Party City, and when the waiters speak they fall into the trap of assuming we all sounded like we came right out of Bristol. It's so awful it somehow crosses a line into hilarious.
[ to say that she is surprised to receive the text is an understatement. normally she knows exactly when Edward has left a blessing by the pressure on the top of her head suddenly lifting once the man leaps off the top of her statue, but today? today is different.
she is almost worried.
thus does she make her way to her statue to collect the offering, taking a moment to inspect the burger then the chocolates and baked goods. offering most definitely accepted. it is only after consuming the burger that she pulls out her phone and sends Edward a reply: ]
The burger was pleasant at least, thank you.
Perhaps you can take me with you next time, the way you speak of it makes me want to see for myself. Such things are always more enjoyable with friends, aren't they? [ friend, yes she did just say that. ] Speaking of music, I want to start preforming again and I can think of no better stage than the Vogue.
I hope I will see you there when I do. Maybe my songs will soothe the pain that pirate-themed music inflicted upon you.
I mean, I wouldn't call it enjoyable, but if you want to watch them do their very best to turn a pop song into a sea shanty I'll not stop you from coming with me. But I reserve the right to make fun of them.
I would be honored to watch you perform at the Vogue, Furina.
Also, look up.
[And there he is, perched atop the Jackdaw's yard-arms, waving a quick little hello to her.]
I meant it'd be more enjoyable making fun of them with a friend, Edward. I trust the experience itself is as terrible as you describe it to be.
I'm glad to hear you will come.
[ it is the 'look up' that makes furina pause, lifting her head to gaze over at the Jackdaw and the pirate perched up atop one of it's yard-arms. she should have known. with a smile he will likely miss Furina waves back. ]
Oh! Well then. I would appreciate your company, we can both make fun of their costumes.
To see you sing, I’d take a front row seat.
[Which is to say he reciprocates her friendship, though he is a little gremlin bastard sometimes.]
Aye, and quite a bit at that, though she’s faring better than her opponent did. The worst of the damage to the sails can be patched up with some spare canvas, and as for the small crater on her deck and all the other scratches she got, that’s easy enough to see fixed.
But I mean to claim the Morrigan as spoils of war, and right now she’s in a sorry enough state that I’m not about to risk pulling her into port.
