Rayner Brandt
Location: Marieve, Grand Comuna, Temple of Torgar
Accompanying: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle, Knight Selene Gaspar
Rayner brushed some sweat from his brow, eyeing up Gastelle who
seemed to still be grinning. At least the man was having a good
time...And hell the man’s smile was infectious. It made Rayner’s
own lips tug into a more comfortable smile, eyes wrinkling at
the sides in humor. He was going to tease the man about him not
disagreeing with Selene outright, but Rayner noticed his
expression faded from humor to something a bit more contained.
It caused Rayner’s brows to knit in confusion, until he glanced
ahead of them. A woman drew closer, one he only recognized when
Selene dropped into a half bow. “Captain d’Emarqus. I’m sorry I
didn’t realize you would be here. Would have invited you to
watch.” She said in greeting, the chipperness still in her tone.
The title made Rayner quickly drop in a half bow, since the
woman was a commanding officer above him. Hell she even spared
him a compliment. That was a good thing right?
“Thank you, Captain. Gastelle here gave me a hell of a time
earning it.” He said, gesturing to the Keth so that he could
introduce himself if he pleased. Honestly, Rayner was confused
why Gastelle seemed so off. Perhaps he could ask later if that
didn’t already come to light in this conversation.

Rayner Brandt
Location: Marieve, Grand Comuna, Temple of Torgar
Accompanying: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle, Knight Selene Gaspar,
Knight Captain Helena Terissa d’Emarqus
Rayner watched the exchange closely, working to hide his
surprise at the fact that Helena knew Gastelle. How exactly was
that possible? Helena was a knight of enviable skill and
powerful allies in Alessandria. She served a Tesith for Amon’s
sake. How had her and Gastelle—well Duuthra as she called
him—ever mingled or evening met? Perhaps she was an old ally,
friend, lover? He looked the man over and wondered if he was
someone that Helena would fall for. Perhaps. Rayner could
understand why if she had. The blunt and confident man was oddly
charming...
He shook the thought off and gave Helena’s new string of
compliments, and even a comment about telling his captain, a
small smile. Perhaps it was a bit of boyish excitement at being
told by a beautiful Captain you were good that gave him a boost
straight to the ego. Rayner was distracted however by Gastelle
putting an arm around his neck. Odd choice but Rayner allowed it
with a raise of his brow. The closeness oddly brought some heat
to his cheeks and he didn’t exactly shove Gastelle away like he
normally would have. Odd... “Th-thank you.” He glanced around
Selene, who looked like she might pout and being taken away from
her fun.
“Behave Sir Gaspar.” He called to her, making Selene spare him
the finger over her shoulder as she hurried to catch up to
Helena.
As the two left, Rayner shrugged off Gastelle’s arm, a
questioning look on his face. “Alright, if you’re still in for a
drink, I don’t mind helping you find some entertainment.” He
told Duuthra, before a wry smile pulled at his lips. “And maybe
you can tell me how in all of Alessandria you know legendary
Knight Captain Helena d’Emarqus. If it’s a story worth
repeating. Other wise, there are better things to talk about
right?” He said before he looked down at himself covered in dust
and some of that off looking potion on the Keth’s clothes. “Like
perhaps where to meet up later after I don’t look like I was on
the losing end of a fight and you don’t smell like overly priced
spiked potions.” He was joking of course, trying to take the
edge off of whatever was bothering Gastelle about Helena.

Rayner Brandt
Location: Upper Vilvella, unknown bar location lol
Company: Gastelle
The change that came over Gastelle was noticeable around Helena,
enough so that it puzzled Rayner on the way back to his home.
Well it shouldn’t have, but it did. It wasn’t any of his
business who the Keth chose to be around, especially because it
seemed Helena held him in a high regard. That meant associating
with him wouldn’t wind him up in trouble—well too much trouble.
He was sure by tomorrow he would have an earful to listen to
from Lord Myathyra after ditching his post and surely his Knight
Captain would have some words to say. Rayner was sure he would
be put on piss poor patrol route for this but—hey—he had dealt
with worse. And besides he got decent company out of it.
Gastelle was already quickly establishing himself as someone
Rayner didn’t really mind all that much. In fact, he rather
liked the Elvi male. He was different than the Alessandrian
types he dealt with and forced Rayner out of his shell a bit. It
was nice to feel like he didn’t have think about etiquette or
what was in fashion to state. Perhaps, Rayner just needed to let
things go and just enjoy himself. And perhaps he could figure
out why the Elvi was able to fluster him...
When he was back into his home, he was surprised to find a note
on the floor, having been slipped under his door. The blue,
floral smelling parchment immediately clued him in on exactly
who sent it, if the scrawling script on the face didn't give it
away first.
'Mon doux Lion,
Je vous écris pour vous informer que j'ai approfondi la
question. J'ai peur que mes contacts n'aient trouvé de piste sur
votre sœur depuis des mois. Toutes mes excuses, mais je dois
retirer mes demandes de renseignements avant que les Quills ne
soient suspects ...
P.S.
Mes conversations intimes me manquent ... Si jamais vous les
manquez aussi, vous savez où me trouver.
Avec amour,
Madame C'
Rayner's face fell at the letter, not realizing it had lit up at
the chance that maybe Calliope had found something more on
Wynry. It had been months since he left Alessandria to seek her
out in Uleplex, only to return with his uncle empty handed. To
hear also a Quill couldn't find her was concerning. But he held
out that hope that she was out there...somewhere...It was the
only reason he agreed to start taking on lovers and playing
these games in Alessandria nobility. Lady Calliope was his
first, as she had seen his potential at the tourney and had
offered to help. Not out of the kindness of her own heart, but
because she felt he had something he could offer her. Sex and
information on the Truce Knights. He knew she had dealings in
the underworlds of Alessandria, but he stayed out of those
pieces as it was messy. Not that sleeping around with married
women or their daughters for nice things and favors made him any
better than Calliope honestly...
Rayner pushed away the thoughts and went to bathe and look
somewhat decent. He even spotted the bruising on his body from
that fight, regarding it with some impress. He actually won a
fight with a Keth and now was going to grab a drink with
him...odd...
~~~
Rayner found his way to the bar easily enough since Upper
Vilvella had many, but only a few that were worth the coin to
drink at. He wasn't surprised Gastelle sniffed this one out,
even if it wasn't one that the Knights usually chose. This one
was a bit more run down but had a charm for being crowded and
rowdy.
Rayner easily found Gastelle among the entering patrons as he
stood out in a way. "Half expected you to be into a cup by now."
He told the man since he knew he took a while. He had to put
himself back in order after that letter and he wasn't about to
bring sour emotion to something fun. "Apologies that took so
long. I had to handle a few things. Including a missive from my
Captain to see him in his office tomorrow. So, if I'm getting in
trouble tomorrow might as well enjoy tonight, right?"
[spoiler] " My sweet Lion,
I am writing to inform you I have looked into the matter
further. I'm afraid my contacts have not found a lead on your
sister in months. Apologies, but I must withdraw my inquiries
before the Quills are suspicious...
P.S.
I do miss our intimate conversations...Should you ever miss them
too you know where to find me.
Lovingly,
Madame C[/spoiler]

Rayner Brandt
Location: Alessandria, Lower Vilvella: Gallowed Dingus.
Company: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle, Buddy Teesithik, Buddy Hugh,
Bar-maiden Angela
Rayner gave Gastelle a grin when he said he started drinking
already. Of course he did and he understood. Rayner could put
away quite a bit himself, since he grew up around warriors and
Germund. He was ready for tonight and needed some stress relief,
even if he regarded Gastelle as an unknown. The question of
Miathyra causing him issue made Rayner give a cluck of
annoyance. "Nah, my captain no doubt wants to scold me for not
going back for more misery. But enough about Lord Fat *ss.
Rather not think about him while I'm trying to have a good
time." He said as he followed Gastelle into the tavern.
It was easy to spot who Gastelle's friends were based on how
loud one got in greeting. Rayner gave the jovial man a grin,
since he liked people with a lot of personality to give. Those
were the type men he was used to being around in the Nomadic
Warrior's Guild. He gave a raise of his brow when the greeting
started with accusing Gastelle of sleeping with Rayner,
something that should have thrown Rayner off. But after getting
to know Gastelle even slightly, he had come to find he was a
sexual man that slept with anyone that caught his interest.
Besides, it was admittedly odd for a Truce Knight to be hanging
around some random man. No harm was meant by it and so Rayner
shook off the comment, since Gastelle got a playful shot in for
them poking fun at him.
Rayner returned to man's smile and gave him a strong shake back.
"Rayner. Good to meet you Hugh." He said, before looking to the
reptilian man there that didn't introduce himself. Rayner was
decent at reading a room and sensed this man was less than
comfortable with his presence. So Rayner left him be and instead
asked Hugh a bit more about himself. Of course the man was happy
to oblige and bragged about his adventures, some stories perhaps
more outlandish than the others, but Rayner wasn't about to call
him on it. It was good to just hear about exploits outside of
someone just bragging about their wealth and petty fights like
he heard with knights.
Hugh's story about a run in with some creature out in the wilds
was interrupted by Angela bringing the cups to the table,
drawing Rayner's attention to the shapely woman. He spared her a
chuckle at the comment to tip nicely. Lucky for her he always
did. When asked if he was doing security, Rayner's brow quirked.
"No ma'am, once that armor comes off I'm off duty. Not here to
cause anyone trouble." He said with a look passed to Teesithik
since he wanted the man to relax. He didn't care what the man
was involved with and wouldn't be the one to get into it
tonight. He hated to be the wet blanket on other's fun. He left
the man alone and instead turned to his drink. "Well, my word is
all I can offer. I'm just here to enjoy a drink with decent
company." He added before he spared Gastelle a playful smirk.
"And to get to know the Keth that I keep running into."

Location: Alessandria, Lower Vilvella: Gallowed Dingus.
Company: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle, Buddy Teesithik, Buddy Hugh,
Bar-maiden Angela
Rayner gave Angela's teasing a laugh since he knew it sounded
strange and he knew he would catch flack for his job here.
"Something tells me i should be grateful to have her as back
up." He chuckled as he went back to his drink, pausing only when
Gastelle went on to console his Kvekkaran friend. Rayner about
choked on his own drink at the mention of a budding romance
between the two. Rayner shot Gastelle a narrow eyed look,
shaking his head. "Romance? You call kicking me around in a
sparring ring and getting me in trouble with Elvi nobility
romance? Do all your conquests swoon at that treatment? Not sure
if I should be shocked or offended." He said before taking
Teesithik's hand with a firm shake.
"Thanks for putting up with me." He was cut off by Hugh cutting
in with a title, one that made Rayner roll his eyes skyward.
That title was only good for tournaments, clout, and skirt
chasing. None of that was happening here so he didn't give a
rat's *ss what they called him. Honestly, they all were
hilarious and loud, something that he wasn't used to but finding
himself enjoying. Tonight wasn't going to be a bust after all.
Rayner shouldn't have been surprised that Gastelle found some
way to work in a comment about a d*ck. Of course Gastelle was
thinking about d*ck and had been most of the day it seemed with
his shameless flirting. Rayner wished he could understand why
the man was persistent even though Rayner showed no interest in
men or him for that matter. Sure, Gastelle was attractive and
his confidence was contagious. But that didn't mean Rayner
wanted to screw around with him. Surely screwing around with a
lizard man wasn't his preference either. It sent a bit of
redness to Rayner's cheeks that his mind went there, but
thankfully Hugh cut in with a toast. Rayner joined in the
revelrous cheer and finished his own drink before Angela brought
another by.
Thankfully, Rayner's tolerance was better because of his time
with Germund. The man drank like a fish and often would make
Rayner drink to train himself up for situations that called for
him to have a level head. He pulled him out of enough drunken
brawls to know Rayner was best buzzed but not gone.
"Now how do you all know each other? From Iaquosia or here in
Alessandria?" He asked since they all seemed like a good fit for
each other but also a strange mix.

Bar-maiden Angela
Rayner coughed on his subsequent drink when Hugh stated that
they met because Gastelle tried to screw him. "Why am I not
surprised?" Rayner said more to himself, eyes narrowing in
Gastelle's direction. He really did f*ck anything that walked
didn't he? Rayner ran his finger along the the edge of his mug,
eyeing up the Elvi male. Now just how did he live his life like
that? Rayner was a serial romantic himself but never
experimented with men. It just wasn't a line he ever crossed. He
wasn't even sure how that all would work, considering he just
didn't see men in that way.
He gave a snicker at their dynamic, finding it like siblings and
quite funny. Rayner rather admired how easily Gastelle seemed to
navigate the talk and pull something out of his friends, whether
good or bad. He was able to get Teesithik to calm down and
Hugh...well Hugh was a force on his own. Perhaps that was just
the Elvi in him, but Rayner found it positive about the man that
was even able to get under Rayner's skin. He caught himself
staring when Hugh spoke up and asked how he met Gastelle.
"Well he stuck his neck out for my ass, instead of smacked it.
Some jack*sses were messing with my diplomat assignment and I
and he happened to stumble along. The rest just led to us
sparring and now grabbing a drink with you lot. Of course, with
a few more innuendos and dick jokes sprinkled in there." He said
before he gave Gastelle a smirk. "Do you meet everyone in your
life by trying to sleep with them?" He asked, wondering if the
man was just insatiable...

Rayner gave a chuckle when Hugh stated that Rayner hadn't seen
the horny side of Gastelle. Surely, that had to be correct if
Hugh was claiming Gastelle was perhaps more persistent than he
had been. Well, either way, Rayner didn't mind the man and found
him good company. That was clear by the people he collected
around him. "Eh, is that so? Either way he's been a good time.
Not bad for a stranger. Has his own charms." He spared Gastelle
a half smile before finishing his drink. His brow quirked when
Gastelle asked how many men were attacking them and that made
him give a hum of thought. "Maybe 6 left after I dealt with a
few." He joked some to brag a bit though he truly didn't
remember the number himself as he was in fight mode with his
adrenaline running high. The most vivid memory of that night was
the Elvi male that swooped in to help when he was sure he was
going to get his ass handed to him. "I just remember they
smelled like piss. Or maybe that was Myathria after they showed
up." He snickered before giving a shrug. "We made a pretty
decent team taking them out. I was surprised he was able to
function while that drunk. You should have seen him actually--"
Rayner went into talking about the fight, not really paying
attention to how much he was drinking as the night progressed.
Of course the topics changed and situations changed and soon
Rayner was feeling the alcohol in his system. It was obvious he
was starting to come out of his straight laced shell. He gave
Gastelle a bit of a rosy eyed smile, since he was in a good mood
himself and he was the one he was most familiar with. "So why
are you in Alessandria? Surely after all the places you've been
this is the most boring? Surely this isn't a venture for
pleasure."

Rayner Brandt
Location: Alessandria, Lower Vilvella: Gallowed Dingus.
Company: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle, Buddy Teesithik, Buddy Hugh,
Bar-maiden Angela--> Duuthra-Keth Gastelle
Rayner had a good time with the men even if he was more than two
sheets to the wind himself and wobbled wen he stood. His head
swam and vision blurred slightly as he stood, but he steadied
himself with a firm grip on the chair. He had to make it home
and he was sure he was going to crash for the night. Even if he
was currently in that fun stage of being drunk where everything
felt awesome and nothing bothered him. He gave a grunt of
agreement when Gastelle mentioned he had too much and Ryaner
knew the same. But that didn't break down his euphoric mood or
the way he laughed all too easily at himself for stumbling over
the door frame.
"Amon preserve me, I don't think I've been this hammered in a
while. At least not walking myself home. It was fun though. Your
buddied are fun!" He chucked, his words slurred and the
attention to his surroundings done. He was rather impressed the
guy was still coherent and standing, since he drank a bit more
than Rayner and he personally felt like he crossed over that
line of stability.
The Keth had shut his eyes, looking to be steadying himself
which was a rather funny sight. Why Rayner couldn't tell since
everything seemed funny.
"Honestly, I'm surprised you're still on your feet and not
facedown like Hugh." He said before he gave a little sigh,
despite the smell coming from the alley that made his nose want
to curl. It had been a while since Ryaner had felt this stress
free in the last few months, what with work and dealing with
Myathria's bullsh*t. He hadn't had a time to jsut relax and be
himself around others without the veil of Alessandria's filter.
It was exhausting to keep up masks every day and honestly he
sometimes wondered if Wynry would even recognize the person he
was now who felt leagues away from the Rayner that left her all
those years ago...and there he was...mucking up his drunk stupor
with sad thoughts that just stressed him out more...He gave a
shake of his head, only to realize he caused the world to blur
at the action. To keep from falling over, he leaned against the
wall near Gastelle as he gathered himself for this fun walk home
that would probably end with him falling on his ass trying to
get up the stairs to his place. "If these are your vacations I
envy them actually. Well there's a bit more than that to envy
like...Well, maybe it's an Elvi thing. Bastards seem to have
quite the luck." He said humming to himself about a thought he
had that he shouldn't have but at the moment he was too drunk to
care. Most Elvi did have a charm to them, life seemed easy to
them, they stayed youthful so long, had time to become experts
at things, and looked so damn pretty. It wasn't hard to see that
in Gastelle, even if Ryaner found he didn't hate the man for it
like he did others like him. He instead found it...his mind
blanked when warmth rushed his face from somewhere in his
subconscious that realized he was giving this man too much
thought.

Company: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle
The humility of Gastelle's response drew a quick smirk from
Rayner who hadn't expected to see that in the man. But the
change was interesting, especially that smile that came to his
features. It was odd, but Rayner felt happy he had helped the
man and found it rather disarming. Was that wrong of him to
notice? Perhaps, but he couldn't find himself caring much with
how warm and relaxed he felt. He found himself glancing at his
lips briefly, noting how they moved as he spoke, maintaining
this perfect shape. A brief curiosity passed his thoughts of how
warm those lips might feel, or if they were soft or chapped. He
was too drunk to question that line of thinking, but he wasn't
drunk enough to not turn a bit pink at his own thinking. Surely
it was because it had been a while since he last had someone he
slept with. Amon above, had it really been that long?
Rayner gave chuckle at Gastelle's casual flirting over being
drunk and for the taking. "So you're saying I have to get you
plastered to make a pass at you? Then I must be doing something
wrong." He said in a laughing tone, edging on flirtation. He
watched as Gastelle slipped down into a sit and gave the man a
raise of his brow. He was going to get stuck like that if he did
that. The question about friends drew a raise of the brow from
Rayner. "What I'm not that much of a stiff to not have a few
people I like being around. Yeah I've got some friends in this
city and really all over the place, some in the Knights like
Selene and Kemper, some at the College that I grew up in, and
even a warrior and a smith. Trust me, Asena Valda and Damon Roux
would give Selene a run for her money." He said before giving a
shrug. "It's been nice finding people in the Truce Knights that
aren't put off by you using Magis. To be honest I hate it myself
but it's a part of me that I can't really change. Also the title
of Spelltrucian kind of forces you to be separate from the
others." He then turned his attention to Gastelle and offered
him a hand up. "If you sit down it's going to be harder to get
up with your head spinning like that." He said, offering the
help up even if he was in Gastelle's space. The Elvi man smelled
nice for some reason, even past the smell of alcohol on him...

Company: Duuthra-Keth Gastelle
The compliment made Rayner's heart leap in his chest for some
reason, but he shook it off and continued to make sure the man
was okay. Over all, Rayner was enjoying just talking to the man
and he knew that perhaps he enjoyed the conversation a bit too
much. But at the moment, he wasn't thinking about the confusing
feelings that brought up. The question about Valda running made
him nod since she was in fact running. She had come to him about
a month ago to visit and asked about him joining her campaign as
a guard. However, he turned her down for obvious reasons. Asena
was one of his best friends, but he wasn't one for politics. And
picking sides when you were already distrusted by the political
factions here for openly using Magis would only serve to hurt
the woman. Besides, he would still be loyal to her once she
inevitably won the seat on the Truce.
The joke about bedding Asena made Rayner genuinely laugh since
at one point that had been a goal. A goal that failed miserably
when her aunt's plans of settling her down with a warrior type
had been sabotaged by Rayner's lack of interest in commitment
and Damon Roux. There wasn't much that Rayner could or wanted to
do to get in the way of that. Call him a sap, but that smith boy
got into his head and actually made Rayner root for him. He
wasn't half bad and so he could respect not sleeping with at
least one of Liphilius's ladies. "Yeah she's running, but the
most she wanted out of me was protection and someone that won't
put up with her bullsh*t. Not that I didn't try to have some fun
with the lady. But I decided to step away after I met my
competition. She loves him and so I bowed out. Damon isn't a bad
guy and I think messing around with her would be like punching a
puppy. Besides, you don't put your d*ck in any woman that can
literally turn into a human torch." He said before he snorted at
the comment of his dick freezing someone. Now that would be a
terrifying sight to see. "You do realize that's not how it
works. I don't personally become cold, so my d*ck isn't the
problem. I can manifest ice through exposed water particles. So
lakes, rain, sweat..." He gave him a humored narrow of his eyes.
"And I'll have you know there are a few highborn ladies in the
city that love ice play. Don't knock it till you've had it done
right." He chuckled since he remembered that had earned him
quite a bit of favor in getting the information he needed. The
memories made a strange association to this moment with Gastelle
and Rayner felt an odd forming....was that attraction to the man
before him? The thought was alarming at first, but it eased as
the silence continued and Rayner realized it didn't bother him
all that much...it was strange...
"You're a funny one." He finally said, eyes glinting with
flirtatious humor. "One minute you're calling me pretty,
commenting on my sword, and using interesting tactics to get out
of a pin while sparring. But then you're trying to convince me
to screw around with someone else. Odd..." He said before he
shrugged and let that one sit since he was sure Gastelle would
have something to say back. "You're lucky you're attractive or
people would get confused by your intentions." The thought
slipped his control, but Rayner didn't seem to notice in his own
drunk mind.
