[ But his smile grows a little tight at the thought of that. He doesn't want them here, not only because of the nature of this world but because they'd be better off if they left him behind. That train of thought leaves an unpleasant feeling in his chest that he pushes down and away.
Fai's smile grows a little wider. ]
I think I would be able to! I'd be sure to come back here and get everyone back home in that case. [ He pauses. ] I'll be looking into a way back to our worlds while I'm here too. I don't know how much headway I'll actually make in my investigation, but it's worth looking into, I think.
[Ah. He's tripped on something, a misstep. Perhaps it's just because he's suggestion such high expectations for this man and his companions. It's hard to say but there's clearly something there so he takes a more neutral response, trying not to press for more than the blonde is comfortable giving. Sometimes he gets so excited about new prospects that he pushes too far.]
Oh, yeah. I'm sure there's a lot of possibilities out there that are worth looking into, even if they might not go anywhere. [He is expected a great deal on that front from Hubert, for example.]
[ Fai's silently thankful for the more neutral approach, and he no longer feels like he needs to overcompensate for that tight smile. He relaxes, trying to make it seem natural and like he was never tense at all with questionable success. ]
I think so! Any information we learn about this world will be valuable, in my opinion.
[ He tilts his head. ]
If you ever investigate things yourself, I'd be happy to tag along.
[ He laughs. It's a big city, but everyone that arrived from other worlds will probably be seeing one another all the time. It's just a feeling he has, since things usually tend to work out that way. ]
Since we'll be seeing each other again, let me at least give you my name! Fai D. Flowright, but just Fai is fine with me.

And then perhaps you'd be able to figure out how to get everyone back to their homes eventually.

Oh don't worry I'm definitely doing some investigating. I'll let you know if something comes up where I might need your talents.
[As promising as he ensures it sounds... he has other mages that he knows and understands better for now, sorry Fai.]

Date: 2021-02-07 09:49 pm (UTC)[ Will he use his talents, especially his magic? Nope. So Claude is definitely better off asking those other mages. ]
Investigations or not, I'm sure we'll be seeing one another around. It was nice meeting you.

Just... call me Riegan.
[Paranoid? Hell yes.]

Date: 2021-02-11 03:08 am (UTC)Alright, Riegan it is!
[ That pause does have him wondering if that's his actual name, but then again, Fai isn't his real name either. He gets it. ]
I'm going to go finish up my paperwork so I can go take a nap in my apartment. See you later!
[ He waves, heading off to one of the offices. ]
