It looked like he was going to be strictly business for this little excursion. Fortunately, Joryldin's transition turned out to have a fascinating backstory to it, confirming a thought that Eris had before. The Nailo had already been in the crosshairs of the Council, his only saving grace being the Widow Nailo's status and Lady Sinnenodel's intervention. He honestly never would have imagined that, though it definitely furthered his interest. Choosing to keep an eye on him had been the right call. Besides, there was nothing wrong with a little socializing with the turned, though Varis' warning did have Eris raising an eyebrow at him. A fair warning, the very last thing he wanted was for his Lady to remember his existence for the wrong reason. Between the sunny blonde and the Nailo, he'd keep himself entertained. Varis' mention of the private car on their return was a relief, the bus' seats bothering him for some reason. He just could not get comfortable, forcing himself to sit still lest he look like some kind unruly child. [color=ccff99]"Oh, that works out nicely,"[/color] He commented, resisting the urge to make yet another comment on privacy, though the flash of a phone camera made him rethink that. [color=ccff99]"...I'll probably be exhausted by the end of the night, so it's appreciated."[/color] When asked about his own plans, Eris briefly turned his head back at the two mages, returning his gaze to Varis shortly afterwards. He was briefly distracted by the man's lips before shrugging slightly. [color=ccff99]"Apparently Maximilian's affinity is secondary, and seeing how he has the emotional range of a wooden block, he wants to buy a focus,"[/color] Eris said, leaning back into his seat. [color=ccff99]"I don't expect it to take long, at the very least the little one is direct. With any luck his control over his magic will prove his usefulness."[/color] Hopefully. Otherwise he really didn't know what he was going to do with the kid. [color=ccff99]"I am expecting a delivery as well, but they'll meet us in town. I would have had it sent straight to my dorm, but I'd rather make sure it arrives safely."[/color] Not to mention he needed to give the place a good look around. The last thing he wanted was to find another hidden camera or bug where he would be living for the next few years.
