"Feel free to bother me as much as you like," said Celsus cheerfully, and then winked playfully. "A lovely lady such as yourself isn't much of a bother at all. I suppose giving you all of this at once can be a bit overwhelming, and I'm certain you'll stumble upon other Celsus knights as it is, but if you have anything you have need of, please do let me know. I am always obliged to help."
He gave a sweeping bow, feeling as though he had given Aventine enough for one night; she seemed as though she had gotten at least the basics, and that was all either of them could ask for, really.
"So, Aventine Page," said Celsus. "For now that should enough to get you going. Is there anything else you need, darling?"

Instinctively, Aventine let out a girlish laugh. She was obviously flattered by the Squire, but with lines like that, how could she not be? He'd called her darling—even if it was just his manners or that obviously gentlemanly side he was showing her. It was refreshing and made her feel giddy. "No, I think you have done a fabulous job, Celsus. They should send you out to talk to all the newbies. You've been enlightening. I've really appreciate this conversation. I think I could handle giving you some space and collecting my thoughts, though I'd really like to run into you again some time. Maybe when I've got some more questions."
Or just wanted something handsome to look at.

Celsus gave a modest smile, waving a hand in a noncommittal fashion. "Nonsense," he said grandly, with a smile that stretched widely and cheerfully across his freckled face. "I'm merely here to assist you in anyway possible and make the transition from regular ole' citizen of the lovely Destiny City to Page of Aventine just that much more entertaining.
Reaching out, he took Aventine's hand and ducked his head, pecking the back of it before he let go. Taking several steps back, Celsus winked, putting a hand up to his forehead in a mock salute.
"Take care, darling," he said. "And just remember - anytime you need anything, just give me a call."

Oh, lay on the charm; that was just what she needed. When he had finished pecking the back of her hand, she reached up to her face and fanned herself with it. "Oh, absolutely," she promised, more than willing to call upon him any damn time she could. That wink, that salute? That smile?
She wasn't sure she could even keep a straight face for much longer, so heading out was probably the best thing she could do. She waved to Celsus, replying, "You take care of yourself. I'll see you around, Celsus." She dropped her hand and turned promptly, still in a bit of a cheery daze before she started walking off. There was no denying she had a little bit of a skip in her step, and the smile didn't fall from her face for a long while.
She was definitely going to keep up this knight business for nights like this.
