[ Day four of pretending he's dating a humanised peacock and Claude is starting to get into the swing of things with this peculiar investigate and uncover the bandit gang mission.

At some point over the past few days, all the frustration inherent in dealing with Lorenz changed to something else, leaving Claude with a strange kind of enjoyment. Don't misunderstand! Tea time with Lorenz is still padded out with boasting and criticism. A real recipe for frustration in anyone other than the man himself. Only now Claude focuses less on what Lorenz says and more on how Lorenz's voice sounds, how his lips move and how his eyes light up whenever he speaks with genuine passion.

The Lorenz Show is at its best when he's at least a little irritated though, and Claude has just the topic to bring up over their third tea time of the day. ]


So, a gang of bandits who only target noble couples... Is Gloucester territory always this quirky?

[ Claude flashes that smirk across the table, practically daring Lorenz to defend the nature of this mission or his territory's honour. He picks up his cup of tea, hoping to top off his teasing with a cup draining gulp... but he's taken by surprise. The cup of tea Lorenz poured for him earlier has gone cold. Just how long has he been listening to Lorenz? ]
