Just a random lurker dropping in to tell you how much I enjoyed this story. The humor and the snark, the way they've stayed in touch with each other despite being from very different social circles (and how you acknowledge that those differences are there and work them in to the story). This is exactly where I'd want them to be after the game. (Vaan and Penelo, sometimes agents of His Imperial Majesty Larsa Solidor's Secret Service...*giggles again*)
Let's see, what else...Vaan stealing from the woman who talks down to Penelo. Or the guy who bumps in to him. Or anyone who catches his attention, I expect. The palace was probably swamped by reports of missing items the next day. And Vaan's so proud of himself for getting a jump on the job, thanks to Captain Basch fon Ronsenberg of--*is silenced* *uses Echo Herb*
Where was I? Right. Your dialogue is just sparkling, and had me rolling on the floor with laughter. Even the narration has a distinctive sense of Penelo's personality. I loved it. Thanks for sharing!
