I'm putting starters in comments so I have a header for each character and get comments only sent to them instead of getting double comment notifs.

Also, if you'd like to work out a wildcard option, PM me or send a private plurk to megoom and we can play around with ideas.

Comments

[insatiably]

"Mm, that makes perfect sense." Especially with the Qunari naval threat to the north, but he's not going to mention that in front of someone with horns.

"I lived aboard a vessel for a year, but sadly I am not well educated in how to actually build one; only in making repairs." Even that seems a lot for a noble, but it was how Julian wanted it. He could have been treated like royalty on the ship, but he wanted to see how the ship ran and wanted to contribute to it. "I am not sure I could be of much use. My family's ships can likely not be spared." Or business will suffer.

Korrin shrugs, not especially put out. She barely knows him, after all. "You don't need a fleet of ships or building skills, just a pair of good hands and keen eyes. Some swimming skills wouldn't hurt, either. But if it's not your bread and butter, there are other projects. The Northern Powers one wouldn't say no to someone from Antiva, after all. None of that's even required, beyond just signing up for a division."

[insatiably]

"Ah," he says, pausing to rub at his shaved chin. Northern Powers would be in his wheelhouse, especially considering that it's the merchant princes who hold the power in Antiva, not the royal family. But does he really want to add such a responsibility to his plate when he'll already be periodically going back to Antiva to check on the business? Maybe it's best to wait and see.

"I see how it would be a good fit, but perhaps I should settle in more before I make any decisions regarding projects. However, I thank you for bringing this to my attention; I had no idea."

[gatheringstorm]

She nods, a small grin forming. "There's no rush, but it doesn't hurt to know your options, either. Good luck with whatever you decide. I should be getting home shortly, but I've time for another question or two if there's anything else on your mind."

[insatiably]

"Only one more question?" Julian sucks in a breath through his teeth as if this is the most difficult thing in the world. "No, no, I will never decide. Best to cut them off now before I delay you anymore. Thank you for your help. Perhaps I will see you about the Gallows or The Hanged Man?"

[gatheringstorm]

"The Hanged Man more than the Gallows, but if I'm there, it'll probably be at the general store. Just follow the scent of whatever Antiva dish Colin's making for the day."

[insatiably]

"That I can certainly do! Until next time." And with that, he'll collect his wine bottle and glass, ready to head back indoors. He'll have to try the tavern she suggested just once to see what kind of nobles hang out there.
