anyway, a languid, easy grin unfurls across his face, and molly sinks lower into the hot, fragrant water, his eyelids lifting only a fraction so he can eyeball his new companion for a moment. ]
Ah, a drink is the only thing that could improve our lot..
[ why didn't he think to bring a bottle of wine!! maybe there are attendants around here somewhere.. ]
[ Charle likes this fellow already. Perhaps it might prove that their rather similar (in his estimation, in any case) personalities clash, but there is just as much a chance, if not more, that they're going to get along famously. ]
Excellent choices on both counts. I'm tempted to track a bottle myself once I gather the willpower to move.
[ He seems to think on that for a moment, weighing the merits of hauling himself out of the bath. Ultimately, he sinks even deeper into the water. ]
[ yes, molly too contemplates the merits of leaving behind the hot, comfortable baths in search of wine, and to his credit he very nearly does it.. buuuut his joints feel so nice and relaxed, the hot stones so soothing, that he cannot help but linger. maybe after, he'll chase this lovely experience with a bottle of red.
instead, for now, he laughs. ]
I hear that, friend. Willpower is not easily found at the bottom of a hot bath.
[ But, conversation seems simple enough. It wouldn't do for him to doze off where someone might pinch his belongings, anyroad, though he'd come awfully close to catching a nap just a few moments earlier. ]
Charlemont, by the by. A pleasure to meet a fellow appreciator of hot baths and otherwise not moving.
[ he laughs, and even the sound of it is syrupy and relaxed, comfortable, warm. ]
I've not been here very long - I don't suppose they've got room service in here, eh? I've only a few coins to my name but I'd be more than happy to spend them, if it meant not needing to fetch my own drink.
[ one of the many reasons he's often broke.. molly's known to be, uh, a little frivolous when it comes to having a good time. ]
Your guess is as good as mine - I'm a fresh face, myself.
[ That tidbit of new information does make him look at Molly a little differently. From his very limited understanding, the transformation into monster is supposed to be a gradual thing, so perhaps his first impression was way off. Charle has met an Au Ra or two who looks close enough to this fellow that it's not entirely impossible that he looked like this to begin with.
But at the end of the day, Charle does not, in fact, care. ]
But if you can find that room service, I'll happily donate a couple coins to your cause.
[ yeah this is just his face.. he'd fit in pretty well in eorzea tbh, even if people definitely might mistake him for a flamboyant voidsent sometimes, but you know, he's kind of used to that anyway. ]
Kind of you, good fellow. I may very well take you up on that offer.
[ even if it's a great effort just to push himself off of the rocks enough to crane his neck and glance behind them. there's a few attendants milling around, and molly is quick to gesture. a young man scurries over quickly and.. what would you know! for a small fee (and probably a tip), he would indeed be more than happy to fetch them a bottle of wine. ]

A sweet rosé maybe, or a good deep red.
