[ Good afternoon, residents of Aefenglom! Today's broadcast comes from a woman with long, dark hair and an overly revealing dress. She tilts her head at the camera, brow slightly furrowed. ]

Now, am I doing this correctly...?

[ After confirming that the camera is in fact on, she starts her spiel. ]

After speaking with a lovely young friend of mine, it's come to my attention that he could use a little company to brighten up his days here. He's lamented about how lonely he feels here [ he hasn't ] and I thought I'd take it upon myself to - what's the term again? - wingwoman for him.

[ You don't spend weeks in a melting pot of different cultures and time periods without picking up a few phrases here and there. Even if they still don't make any sense to her, because she certainly doesn't have any wings. ]

He's a youthful nineteen in your mortal years, and an absolute sight on the battlefield—as well as a sight all tied up.

[ She means the 3DMG but hey, might as well fire up the imagination. With a little help -- there's a picture flickering onto the screen now, of a shirtless young man staring into a mirror. ]

He's chivalrous but open-minded, and enjoys his days off with gusto. His words can come out a little rough, but he's quite caring once you get past that prickly exterior. Unless, of course, you like things a little rough.

[ Said with a wink. Is this...still SFW... ]

If he sounds like someone you'd be interested in spending time with, please do let me know. You won't be disappointed. [ Ah, right, before she forgets— ] And of course, both boys and girls are welcome to apply!

[ It's equal opportunity in this house. ]

Comments

[dirtdevil]

Both, actually.

[ in fact, Jean in particular knows how incredibly bad he is at complimenting people now. it's definitely for the best. ]

I hope you do at least take the time every now and then to pause and smell the roses.

[ Or whatever his flower of choice may be. All work and no play makes levi a dull boy!! ]

[dirtdevil]

[ it sure does. ]

Sure. If I'm not in immediate danger of dying horribly, why not?

[byanyother]

Is that a common occurrence you expect to encounter at all times?

[ seems like A Lot... ]

[dirtdevil]

Not all the time. More than most people, though.

[ let's just say those roses would have to smell pretty fucking amazing. ]

[byanyother]

Oh? You sound awfully confident about that.

[ please, do go on. ]

[dirtdevil]

Don't believe me? Hasn't Jean told you what he does for a living?

[ or did he say he's a billionaire male model who spends half the year doing free open heart surgery on underprivileged kids and the other half partying on his yacht? ]

[byanyother]

[ She'd give him the benefit of the doubt if he said it, tbf. ]

Mm, he hasn't been too forthcoming on the details. But I have seen him in action - those aren't skills you pick up from simply training.

[dirtdevil]

You're right, they're not. He's seen some shit.

[ they both have. ]

There really isn't time for stuff like this under normal circumstances. I guess it's not that surprising that he'd want to take advantage of being a civilian again.

[ even if his methods are a little bit weird. ]

[byanyother]

[ you know how boys get. ]

You don't seem to share his same enthusiasm, despite being in similar circumstances.

[ look, she can make a tinder ad for you too ]

[dirtdevil]

[ please god no. ]

What, you mean for finding a "companion?" Not really, no. I think we just have different preferences when it comes to how we spend our time off.

[ definitely an understatement, but it's still the truth. ]

[byanyother]

Is that so? What are your preferences then?

[ sorry, she's like a dog with a bone. ]

[dirtdevil]

Mostly to be left alone.
