late april 2,702; the citadel

[It's a relatively quiet day at the Citadel. Most are out and about enjoying the spring weather, jousting in the courtyard or getting some last minute construction done on various walls and spires. Most aren't twiddling their thumbs away indoors, but neither Hermione nor Gilgamesh fall under the category of most.

Gilgamesh has spent most of his day packing. Servants could do it, he's sure, yet he waves them off whenever they offer, glance at him with concerned expressions. He packs it all in that magical bag she gave him, and smiles when his fingers touch the gifts she gave him. He hadn't lied in at least one sense. He'd fallen for her potential, for the promise in those words I definitely can whenever he challenged her to try something new.

But lessons were far away from here, or so seemed that way. He does accept the servants' offer to make tea. He's no good at that sort of thing. He's no good at the kindness of domesticity, even as he seeks to extend it.

Gilgamesh sets his bag in the corner and takes to the halls on four legs. He takes the familiar path to Hermione's room and, finding the door ajar, nudges it open a bit.

...oh. She's trying on armor. Well, she's fully clothed. It's fine.

Gilgamesh snuffles a little to get her attention. She's seen him like this before, so that's fine, too.]
