This is Evangeline! Sorry, I'm a little busy right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
Well... to be honest with you, small designs such as this are something I enjoy whipping up from time to time.
I recently designed the business cards for the three of us in Victoria Housekeeping, for example...
Which isto say, of course, that you can trust whatever I design to look beautiful and fit you perfectly.
I was thinking... something a bit like a seal of your own?
[Pausing. Thinking.]
Have either I or Chipp shown you one of our seals yet?

I've seen his! It's super cool, I'd love to have one of my own!
Then your own, you shall have! And I will have it tattooed upon me to remain for as long as I can keep it!
Are there any themes in particular you would like me to focus on?
[Anoooother pause, and he digs out his notebook from his bag - something he's already gone and burned his own seal into, flipping to the back page where it remains and showing it to her.]
This is mine, for the record.

I doubt I will. [ file this under Things That Make Jyoti Look Like A Clown In Retrospect ] ... But thanks.
[ Even if she can't see that future for herself, she understands where those words come from. And it's... kind. A kindness she doesn't know how to handle, but doesn't push away because it's Evangeline. ]

Ohhh, super cool. For me... stars and dahlias are my big go-tos?
Beautiful choices; I'm a fan of dahlias, myself. Perhaps not my favorite flower...
That will always fall to the dandelion.
But they rank quite high on the list, regardless.
[He's also going to jot that down in his notebook, since he has it out!]
Anything else you can think of? Or do I have full artistic liberty?

I want to see what you decide represents me.
[Also the only other thing she can think of is her eye symbol from Chipp's helmet and she's not suggesting that.]

Hmhmhm~ Consider it done, then. In just a few days, I will bring you a design for you to evaluate.
[A pause, and he taps his cheek with the end of his pen.]
... Would you prefer that I am mature with it?
[A pause, and he taps his cheek with the end of his pen.]
... Would you prefer that I am mature with it?
...I think that if you made me a seal that was supposed to be as cool as yours and Chipp's, and you drew like a dick on it or something, my feelings would be a tiny bit hurt...
...
I could easily make a dick look as cool as my own seal...
[Muttered, of course.]
Fine, then, fine - I will be mature. It will be stunning and beautiful and without anything you may consider flaws -
As you rightly deserve.

Thank you, honeybug.
[Cheek kiss!]
.......I'm morbidly curious about the bread now.

.......I'm morbidly curious about the bread now.
[The kiss gets him to perk back up instantly, of course, because he is nothing if not a sucker for affection in all forms -
And he picks up that loaf of bread, taking it back out of its bag.]
Do you wish to try it...? Is that what you suggest?
I'll happily allow you to indulge, if you'd like.

[She tears off a small piece of bread, takes a deep breath, and then puts it in her mouth. Chews.]
...Honestly, I'm just okay. Like I don't know what I was expecting from raw unseasoned meat.

Just okay...?
[Somehow he sounds?? Offended??? He's even frowning about the idea.]
... I suppose that would be how others would think of it, hmm. Raw, unseasoned meat... how...
Lacking in romantics.
At least dress up the terms you use, if you must disparage your own flavor in such a way.

It's... um.... I could be nice with some pepper?
[SIGHING.]
... Fine. This would be something that you wouldn't quite understand, regardless... I'll allow you this one.
[But he's also going to take a piece of that bread for himself as he talks, smiling as he pops it into his mouth.]
- I'll have you know, though, that for me, it's divine.

I'm glad you're enjoying it so much. It makes me happy to see you happy, no matter how weird your happiness happens to be.
Hmhm~ That's all that matters to me, in the end! My happiness may be strange and incomprehensible to those around me...
But so long as it's harmless, I would hope my most beloved people would support it, regardless!
[Said with what is, perhaps, the cutest little laugh he's ever let out, holding that loaf close again like it's returned to its rightful place as The Most Precious Thing.]

Love you too, honeybug. -I’m pretty weird myself, so it’s only fair.
... Ah -
["Love you, too"... did she think he was saying "I love you" by calling her beloved? It felt like such a simple word to use, a synonym for treasured or cherished, but...
His face immediately flushes a deep orange, and he looks down at the bread rather than her.]
... I wouldn't say that you are weird. Eccentric, perhaps, but not weird.

[She did, in fact, think that. She’s beloved because he loves her, right?]
It probably depends on your standards. I’m very weird for the City.

[Well, yeah, sure, but he doesn't want to say that --]
Mm. Perhaps, yes, but I'd argue that anyone here would be weird for the City.
Rinku would be weird there. Chipp would be weird there.
...
[Thinking on that, now, as well as on a conversation he'd had with Rinku...]
... I think I would be the only one who'd fit right in.

No way. For a million reasons, but first is that you’re generous without expectation of repayment.
To those I like, yes. Surely the people in the City don't withold generosity from their loved ones -
Otherwise, how would your parents be as wonderful as they sound?

…My parents are also weird. Most parents are not as loving as mine.
