sorry for the delay, a family matter came up

How strange, that an affair wouldn't be scandalous.

"Musical chairs with partners, that's what you all do. Where I'm from who is sleeping with ho is absolutely the gossip, and the scandal. I think it's a bit refreshing to see it not true here."

"It entirely depends on who the person is. Some can afford a little gossip or scandal, some would have to keep such affairs more private if they could even risk them."

Though Celene had managed to do such a thing at one point, though the Empress was a very efficient player of the Game. Few would be able to navigate a thing in such a way.

Well that's interesting. Magnus raised an eyebrow and was left thinking for a moment. Okay, he could work with this.

"So the way to make talk is to make it look like there is an affair in those that can afford only a little gossip?"

"An affair is one way to go about it. It depends on what talk you really want."

Sometimes a trinket, a letter or the right word whispered to the right people did enough. Orlais was very good at sharing.

"I'm not sure I want much more than to inspire talk. You know me, Vivienne. I like to hear my own voice."

Okay, he wasn't that vain, but he did like attention and conversation.

"As would anyone who dared to listen. Perhaps one day they'll realise you're more than just a pretty face."

Though was that because they didn't like how much he talked or because of something else? Orlesians did like spinning tales after all but they could easily become more.

"But if we did start splashing you out more you do at least know how to look good. That's important."

"I'm also a pretty body," he said, stretching out on the couch as if to show off. See, very good.

The comment about his fashion, though, made him laugh.

"I'm just disappointed my mask wasn't more feline in form."

Don't mind her taking a moment to casually look in appreciation. She might not touch but she'll happily ego boost her friends. And appreciate a good thing.

"Well if you did attend another little gathering we could improve on that. I couldn't go all out for something you'd only take that once."

Since he hadn't been a fan of her scene before.

Yes, she was truly the best. It was nice to be appreciated, even by someone who had no intentions of putting hands on the goods. And if nothing else, a Warlock was a creature of ego.

"Yes yes, you win. I'll play again with your strange form of parties. It was a bit of a delight. I could try it once more. See if I can't make some gossip."

"They'd delight in that."

She picked her glass back up, drinking a little more from it.

"And no doubt we can find you more things that you enjoy about it."

Of course they would delight in that. It made him want to laugh. These people are just so damn weird.

"Well sadly the dancing that happens at your parties just isn't that interesting. It's so... controlled."
