Surprise.]
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-19 01:58 am (UTC)Therefore this is kind of... suspicious.]
My lord?
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-19 02:25 am (UTC)[Sigmund doesn't look up from what he's doing, which is adding some carefully measured spices to the pot. Quite a variety of spices, in fact. And, if the ingredients on the counter are to be believed, a dash of honey and some cider, the label of which proudly states that it's from Burguss. He takes a spoon from a small saucer, rinses it, and then gets a tiny taste of the broth.]
This needs more time, yet.
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-19 05:51 pm (UTC)...Er. Of course he was capable, but recipes were unworthy and trivial and as long as it was edible, it--
...Well, no matter... it really does smell delicious now. And Burguss ingredients? That's even more suspicious.]
My lord, what is all this...?
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-19 06:24 pm (UTC)But none of that is how he answers.]
It's your birthday, is it not? [When you haven't had 700 of them, these things matter.]

Date: 2011-05-20 07:25 am (UTC)No, I- well yes, it is, I just didn't think y- [Oh good grief, hold your tongue for half a second, idiot.] ...you're correct, of course, my lord. But you didn't have to go to such trouble for me...
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-20 03:51 pm (UTC)After a moment, he clears his throat.] I don't know if you've had this before. I only remember it because it was served every time I visited Burgusstadt. [So not only is he making Edward dinner, he's making Edward dinner as served to visiting royalty.]
[Action, May 18th]
Date: 2011-05-21 02:08 am (UTC)...Thank you. I appreciate this, really. [Even though he neglected to say it before.]
[Action, May 18th] /finally gets back to this

Date: 2011-06-07 09:19 pm (UTC)So he's glad. Very, very glad.]
...It's delicious, my lord! [And for once he's not lying- it really is lovely.] It tastes like home.
[Action]
Date: 2011-06-08 01:16 am (UTC)Yes. For Edward. He lifts his glass up in a toast, with the sort of bearing suited for banquet halls, not quaint country kitchens.]
To another year.

Date: 2011-06-08 09:32 am (UTC)As long as Sigmund is alive and well and with him, he's happy enough.]

Date: 2011-06-13 09:02 pm (UTC)How does this conversation thing work again?] This can't be how you expected to spend your birthday.

Date: 2011-06-20 02:09 pm (UTC)Or he could just be so caught in being lordly around Edward that he can't relax, at all. Why is this so hard? A meal with Edward should be like a meal with... with Touma. ...Well. Not exactly like a meal with Touma. He would never consider- urgh. No. He takes another, larger drink of cider and takes this terrifying metaphorical intimate conversation dragon by the horns. Because he is
KingLordKing>Lordawesome and eh doesnt afraid of anything.]I've fond memories of Burguss... although the people were often less than impressed with me.

Date: 2011-06-21 04:09 am (UTC)[A slight against himself, perhaps, but it was true enough; he'd misjudged plenty of people, including Capell and many of their other allies, as well.
Sometimes he gets it right, though, even if it involves those ever-rose-tinted glasses. Like when he's around certain Liberators.]

Date: 2011-06-22 03:19 am (UTC)[Even he can admit that not all dragons are wonderful beautiful benevolent creatures. ...Actually most of them aren't.]

Date: 2011-06-26 12:54 am (UTC)[He rushes-while-trying-to-appear-unrushed over to the stove to check on the stew. Good. Everything alright here. He takes it off the heat and starts ladling it into a tureen before resuming his sentence, proceeded by one sharp, almost breathy noise. A laugh?]
Wasn't to be trusted near Saruleus.
[Action]
Date: 2011-06-27 10:08 am (UTC)[He asks without thinking, though afterwards regrets it a little; he hadn't intended to sound like he doubts Sigmund, especially when they have an oddly-teasing conversation going. ...And he isn't entirely positive he'll like the answer.
BUT NOT BECAUSE OF DOUBT][Action]
Date: 2011-06-27 03:00 pm (UTC)Saruleus is a Claridian, not a dragon. [This an obvious distinction, Edward. Seriously. It's not like anyone would call Karathos a turtle. Sigmund doesn't sound all that upset, though, perhaps a bit fondly wry.]

Date: 2011-06-28 03:00 am (UTC)I can't think of an excuse for them to be worried about you, then. How foolish of them.
