Ignis,

It has been some time since last we met, and I wanted to check in and see how you were settling in. The winters can be harsh here, so do make certain that you have a suitable housing situation and wardrobe.

The locals are already starting to put up decorations for an upcoming holiday, Modranicht. Would you like to join me in viewing them?

[It takes him a moment to connect the name to the person, but he replies without hesitation once he does.]

I'm settling in as well as one might be expected to. You don't need to be concerned about my housing situation.

But that sounds like a fine idea. I'd be happy to join you.

[bergamotrose]

Excellent.

The locals can be wary of us at times, and it can make life a tad difficult at times. I'm glad to hear that you're faring well in adjusting and getting settled.

Shall we meet after dinner then? The decorations look the best after sundown.

[claritatis]

I had noticed the wariness.

[And more so since the evidence of the direction his transition would go had made itself known. They looked at him as if they already knew how it would end.]

That sounds fine. Where shall I meet you?

[bergamotrose]

In the town square?

[Lorenz suggested, already planning out a way to distract the attention of the locals onto himself if they couldn't be avoided.]

It's a central location, and the shop windows are nicely decorated right now.

[claritatis]

I'll see you there.

[If Ignis is accustomed to anything, it's people.]
