A chat for Lynn* to meet my dumb boy Charles Aiden Rente III (A.K.A. Aiden!)

Aiden: Yep! Especially when I get to fight the gods! The gods fear the Kingdom of Dasdn, and my family line.

Phoenix: shouldn't you listen to the gods though? Ain't they gods?

Aiden: Sighs The gods don't do jack shit to make our lives better. All they do is sit around and gamble. It's disgusting.

Phoenix: scoffs. Sounds like my boss. Geez. How do you fight gods?

Aiden: It's easy: you just fight them.

Phoenix: ooh! Can I fight gods??

Aiden: Laughs I only do it because the gods fear me. And it's good practice for later.

Phoenix: grumbles. Rude.

Aiden: Nope, I'm just smart. You'd die if you tried.

Phoenix: glares. Try me, pretty boy. sighs Anyways, what about the other continents?

Aiden: One of them is dead. The last one is… weird, because it exists technically in another dimension.

Phoenix: …how does that even work?

Aiden: It shouldn't, but it does. Magic.

Phoenix: aaalright then. into their watch. yeah, I have confirmation on the subject, tell recon to drop

Aiden: Growls You'd better not be calling in a strike on me, fool. I could doot doot magic fucking floot you out of existence, as well as a 50 kiloton nuke and an entire army. Try me.

Phoenix: laughs I was just testing ya! Your little flute totally rigged all my fancy toys. Which, by the way, I may or may not sue you for.

Aiden: Sighs Good. And try it. You'll lose.

Phoenix: holds hands in the air. alright, alright, I’ll leave ya be.

Aiden: Sighs I'm sorry, I'm just… uncomfortable. He plays yet another riff on the floot, and the surrounding environment is back to normal, the light restored as well

Phoenix: watches as this happens, then steps closer to Aiden. hey, I’m sorry. You don’t have to feel bad about anything

Aiden: Sighs again No, you're fine… it's just, I've never actually, like, talked with someone that doesn't care if I'm royalty.

Phoenix: chuckles is that a good or a bad thing?

Aiden: That depends. Right now, good.

Phoenix: grins. alright! Well, Aidan, do you have any siblings? Friends?

Aiden: Nope, no siblings. And no friends, either. It's difficult to make friends as literally the wealthiest kid.

Phoenix: yeah… I imagine. I’m not exactly allowed to have friends, so I get that.

Aiden: You wanna be friends?

Phoenix: of course!! holds out a hand

Aiden: Takes his hand, then drags him into a hug, laughing

Phoenix: hugs him back. I was not expecting that!
