005 // is there time

[serpentis]

Who: Dorian Pavus and YOU
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The House of Sin
When: 3/29

[Dorian looks better than he has in a few days, wandering around his borrowed bedroom and smiling pleasantly, robes wrapped around him and pants and a tunic under that. He doesn't look like an evil necromancer today, hooray!]

I would like to formally offer my services yet again to the fleet. For those of you unaware, I operate a small salon of sorts out of the Three Twins. If you have a need for your hair cut or anything else, please, for everyone's sake, let me do it.

Today is decidedly different. It's come to my attention that perhaps not all of you know how to read, and I'd like to offer my services as a private reading tutor. I can be a dreadfully patient man, and if that is something you'd like to be taught, I am more than happy to oblige.

[Private, to Varric]

I don't suppose you'd care to write some reading material for me?

[ Tay doesn't need reading lessons. She can figure out most words. Most. Eventually.

...Okay but she has noticed that there's a lot to read around here, and most of the words aren't the ones she's used to and quick with. ]

[ It's worth noting that there will be a notable (though not excessive) pause between Dorian's messages and Tay's replies ]

[FITES, oh, good.]

I can certainly arrange that.

Dorian Pavus. I will contact you when I have reading material, if that is acceptable?

[whereivebeen]

[ ugh what are these words? Certainly? Arrange? ACCEPTABLE? Who even uses words like that, this is why Tay doesn't like reading.

Also she has to take a minute to figure out if "Dorian Pavus" means something or is his name. ]
