[Giovanni doesn't seem to be paying attention to the device when it first comes on. It can be noted that instead of his usual white Assassin's garb he is wearing a brown doublet fashioned in a common 15th century style. The outfit is well tailored for the time though emphasizing Giovanni's status as a noble back home. It seems to be what he got from the random item appearance from the other day.

After a moment Giovanni turns to the device. Whatever he was attending to remains off-camera.]


...I suppose the phrase "never look a gift-horse in the mouth" is appropriate these days, no? Though as with everyone else it seems to invite more curiosity and questions concerning our 'generous hosts' than I would like to admit.

At least I have more to keep warm with now, I suppose.

Ezio...? [He pauses and then thinks better of whatever it was he was thinking of saying. He waves a hand dismissively in the air before reaching forward and shutting off the device.]

[[There is also a golden eagle flying on a red and white background--the Auditore sigil--on the main doorway inside the apartment. The banner was the second "gift." Ezio is free to notice this addition to the apartment decor.]]

...Ezio?

...Ah, yes. My son.

Then you must know Desmond.

Yes, I am acquainted with him.

D-did you get that the o-other day? I-I got some clothes too.

Yes, I did, along with a warm cape I sometimes wear. All familiar items from home. Yours as well?

Yes, I-I got some of m-my civilian c-clothes.

That is good. I imagine they are more comfortable than all that formal robe and gown.

Th-they are, and they f-fit better than the c-clothes Father Nightroad f-found.

Bene, bene! Che è molto buona. I am glad for you. It is in times like these that the little things make the biggest differences sometimes. It is something we should all be grateful for even if it is only slight compensation.

I-I agree. And, e-even in such a harsh place, th-things could always be worse.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with that. As bad as things may seem one instant, there is certainly always worse when you least expect it. However, with a little courage and determination it can all be overcome.

...Friends and loved ones help with that. Always remember that.

It's not the first time they've dumped new stuff on us, from the outside worlds.

W-without friends, w-we would be lost. E-even s-some of us here, who have n-no one.... I-I think they could do well, i-if they get to know people.

[identity profile] betrayedblade.livejournal.com 2010-01-16 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
An often occurrence? ...Somehow I doubt that. How many times do you know of?

Yes. [He pauses to smile knowingly to himself and it shows in his voice when he continues.] You are very wise for one your age.

[He's not sure what to say at first, but he smiles as well.] I-I just know h-how I feel....

[identity profile] not-riku-thx.livejournal.com 2010-01-16 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Um...Hm...maybe four, five times now? The first time was a mistake. Some machine of Ace's broke.

I've been here two years. Roxas a little longer, maybe two more months or so. Not many of us showed up before that, and most of them are gone now.

[Ezio has indeed noticed the new decor, the sight making him just a little bit homesick and all the more anxious to find a way back to his time. He still has his mother and sister to care for and the Templar to defeat after all. He meant to mention his appreciation of it but for now he is simply answering his father's call.]

Yes, father?

[Don't mind him, he's just... staring at your outfit.]

...

[This is the first time that she's ever seen clothes that looked like that before. Well... quite like that.]

Ace?

So this has at least been going on for a little over two years, possibly around three. How unsettling...

You would think we would be given a task to complete, perhaps as a way to go home; offer an award such as that and why would we not complete it when we have no other hope? They have seen to that. And yet... nothing. Does that make us nothing more than a game, and why?

...That is more than most, at least.

Ace. She was one of the scientists, but I don't know what happened to her.

Three by the start of next winter for sure.

They discovered other worlds. Maybe they want to learn more about them with us. Or see how people from other worlds are with each other. Or...I don't know. They have enough stuff that they could make something of this place if the got more Organized. But they like watching us try to work out the mess, I guess.

[He hesitates only slightly before answering, the real reason not so much forgotten as avoided completely on purpose. Hopefully his son can't tell the difference.]

What did you get?
