[ Near the middle/end of Feburary, Essek gets a package in the mail. When he opens it, it's a care package of bondage 101: a pair of handcuffs, some silk rope, a blindfold, and a bottle of lube. Inside, there's a note. ]
I'm sure you've got plenty of these already, but I want to make certain our next time is special. Sincerely yours, Dorian Gray.
a package from Magnus Bane, delivered by Cordispondance
Thought you might like these. For something special. Come by sometime. - Magnus Bane
[ Instead of the nice, polite gift of several artfully engraved potion vials and unicorn horn shavings, there's an artfully designed vibrating cock ring and an assortment of pictures of Magnus in various... states of arousal and engaged in activities. Four in all. ]
[This was supposed to be a present for Jester, but it's been delivered to Essek by mistake. Inside the shiny wrapping is an assortment of chocolates with pretty designs. No two are alike.
The accompanying note reads: One of every flavor. Tell me which one's the best! -Noah]
[ As this is the first of the packages that arrives at Essek's door, he doesn't approach it too suspiciously. He almost wishes that he had. Even with his limited experience he's no idiot; he can put the pieces together. He stares at the note as he reads it as if the note itself had offended him.
He picks up each item one by one, the frown setting deeper on his lips.
Eventually, he picks up his device to send Dorian a message. ]
I received your package. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that it's not wildly inappropriate where you're from to send someone something like this. I also am not so naive as to think that you won't do it again, no matter what I say.
And if you're going to spend money on manacles, you should invest in stronger ones than these.
[ At this point, this isn't the first gift sent to him by mistake, and he assumes it won't be the last. He reads the note, and the name, and sends a message to the sender on his device. ]
I'm afraid your package was sent to me by mistake. I can either return it to you or deliver it to whom it is intended.
[Noah has received some odd packages himself (as well as had at least one delivered in his name that he never would have sent), so... he's a little nervous about the answer.]
[ This isn't the first gift by now, and he assumes it won't be the last, but at least he recognizes the sender this time. He reads the note first and hopes genuinely that this is actually intended for him, and isn't obscene.
As to the former he has no idea. As to the latter he could not be more wrong.
The pictures were...a bit much to say the least. The moment that he was able to pull his eyes away from the first one (stuck on out of sheer surprise, frankly), he checked the others very quickly before putting them back into the box. He tried to distract himself from the heat in his face with the other part of the "gift"...until he figured out what it was.
He closed the whole thing quickly, mending the seal, and stared off into the distance to regain any sense of composure that he had left in him. ]
[ OOC: Will also reply to your open event post, so no need to reply to this. He'll bring it back in person. ]
