Sometimes survivors never come out of it the same again. I suppose I'm glad I made it to Amberdale with not as much stress and trauma." Jasper admitted with a quick laugh, but he knew Spiders would always, unequivocally cause irrational fear in him, even the smallest ones. No doubt it would also make teasing him an easy feet for anyone feeling particularly mean in that moment. "I used to hear tales about people like that, they always inspired little brats like me for greater things. But we always got caught up in the glamor, we never really considered the journey to get there. I'd like to hope I become also good also as you say one day... But another life not spent adventuring might not be so bad either."<br/><br/>She wondered if he sung to someone before, to which he burst out laughing, rolling on his back and trying to cover his mouth. "Me, sing to someone? Surely you jest! I wouldn't be caught dead trying to sing to anyone... Ho, but that was a good laugh. Cheers." He smiled, giving her a thumbs up as he sat back up, brushing his chin. "Well, I suppose our village was either normal, or not very... Still, what you say..." He blinked and considered it. "If there was anyone like that, they didn't advertise it very much in town. I..."<br/><br/>Thinking about it... That seemed like the best of both worlds, didn't it? You could have your one true, and then you could both play with whomever else they desired. "I mean... If someone were that lucky, I would swear they might as well have hit the local big winnings at the tavern or something. I would be lucky to have just one woman to come home to, but if she didn't mind joining her lover in playing with others..." Jasper felt like if he had that... Then he would probably feel like the luckiest man in Amberdale. Of course the odds of finding someone like that were about as likely as finding a needle in a haystack.<br/><br/>"I suppose yes, sleeping at home kind of... Hey!" He slapped his thigh and pointed at her accusingly. "No, I will not get a dog or any other animal to stave off loneliness at home! I have heard tales of cat or dog owners going overboard and collecting a bunch and I will not fall into that habit." He folded his arms definitely and finishing with a snort as if the thought were preposterous.<br/><br/>However, the thought of her bringing a gift to his home sounded worthwhile, and so he quickly relaxed and hummed. "A gift... Well, some books couldn't hurt. I don't really have a bookcase, but I could always craft one to give your favorite picks a place to be. You have some personal favorites, don't you? You can bring some over for me to read, and when I get home, I can get started on fashioning a bookcase for them." He grinned, happy to see Merry look so excitable. Her own place sounded like he needed to see it at least once. "Definitely expect a visit then, a well-tended garden is a good indicator of someone's care and understanding of nature. We had plenty of gardens back home, but I never really got to make my own... So maybe I can start here once I have an idea of how yours looks."<br/><br/>The last question seemed kind of surprising to the man, but it was also one he didn't have much trouble in answering. "In that manner? I... I would say I like most beings I should say. I... Might have to make an exception for things like arachnids, or have legs greater than four. I'm... Sorry, I just can't bring myself to like them! But everything else? I would say yes... I wouldn't mind sharing my time and life with them... Why, is that going to help you figure out if I have someone waiting in my future if you tell my fortune?" He asked, raising a brow out of curiosity.
