[It takes a lot of time tapping this message with less fingers but Enkidu manages.]

recently my truest friend has been summoned from the mirrors but for now he lacks platonic friends to spend time with. he has been living a solitary life as a king and i do not want him to be alone anymore.

his name is gilgamesh. he is very fond of his treasures and also knows the greatest stories about them. he enjoys wine as well. he is great to spar with and likes to go on adventures. his favorite color is gold. once he introduced me to beer and bread and allowed me to eat and drink everything i wanted.

would people like to become his platonic friend? or another sort of friend? as i know that many sorts of friendships are possible.

let me know if you have questions or want to meet him. he can be a bit fussy at first but please do not let it get to you. he has been alone. for a long time.

Amusement is its own value sometimes, is it not? I do have a weapon, however, and I admit I prefer it over hand-to-hand. But if you would object to that, I can go without.

[There's a reason she didn't take up the pugilist's path, after all. Dark knights still need some use of their arms and legs beyond swinging a sword, but using them without is an entirely different field.]

Prize... hmm. To be honest, the fight itself is what I want. Unless you've some idea of something you'd like to ask from me in the event you win?

[gilgamess]

Aha, quite bold, aren't you? "Amusement is its own value." Indeed, you speak truly.

[ needless to say, he seems to have calmed down considerably.

it is almost like Enkidu was right about how he is much more personable once you get past that initial spiky attitude. maybe. but Gilgamesh is very contradictory by nature. ]

It seems that it is very important to my friend that I entertain the masses, so very well, I shall heed your request. But do not presume it means that Enkidu's words about me befriending others are accurate. [ you know, he still feels the need to put this disclaimer out there!! ] I am simply a King who enjoys idle pleasures from time to time. I suppose there is no harm in my doing so here.

As for what I should ask were I to win ... if you have no immediate answer, then my answer is obvious: a favor, to be called upon at another time. As the King, I charge only according to how one's talents should enrich me, and a favor according to one's abilities is what intrigues me the most.

[ and as for what that could be, he has no idea, because he has no idea of the full scope of her abilities, or when he might wish to call upon them. ]

And should you win, you may ask the same of me.

[omnicrafter]

Yes, sir.

[There's a certain quality to the smirk she wears that says she only believes it up to a certain point, though. When it's a close friend describing someone, second-hand accounts may be biased, but often have more than a few grains of truth to them based upon experience alone.]

That sounds like a fair deal to me. I suppose we can discuss my talents further after the fact, but for right now, I'm quite eager for the exercise. Shall we decide on a time and place?

[gilgamess]

[ oh, he is an expert in smirks. genuinely an expert, at least at this one thing. his own is quite lazy with that arrogant temper quite evidenced by the line of his mouth and the look in his eyes. ]

The one to decide upon that should be the one who began this, eh?

Best you ask them.

[ AHEM. YOU FIELD THIS, CLAYBAE. can't expect Gilgamesh to lift his hands to do too much work. what does he look like to you, CasGil? naw, other Gil ain't about that life. ]
