"A pleasure to meet you, Sokratis," Ajax replies, warm and genuine. And not JUST because he thinks Sokratis is checking him out.
"This place is my home away from home these days. It's lovelier, quieter, and there is far more pleasant company to be had, whatever kind of company one desires."
He sips his wine, makes a pleased sigh. "Excellent as always." He grins, touches the pattern on his chiton with one finger, as he's noticed the direction of Skellig's gaze. "Arachne does very fine work indeed, even if her client is a man who prefers the less traditional in chiton patterns. I'm afraid even MY charms won't open up a hole in her schedule for a least a season, but I could try and get you in to see her then?"
