Why would he be demoted? I am giving him resources he can't otherwise procure for himself.
[ another pair! she wears them as well. sends to him a very nice view of her hands, looking very demure on a desk.
in exchange, he gets another delivery of two cows. both moo in different tones, one in a more baritone than the other. they have different colours, one black and white, the other, a plain reddish-brown. they are to join their brethren as well. ]
[ the cows are swiftly multiplying, and he has to wonder why they're here physically when they could have just as easily been in the pastures of their shared game file. that said, he does have another gift for her. this time it's a simple shawl, but it's clear the materials used are rather luxurious.
he figures it would help to keep her warm. all the more when he knows that her usual state of dress... well, that wasn't of present concern. at least not now. instead he's focused on finding another spot for them cows on his desk. ]
Have you not heard of scarcity? Now that there have been an increase in cows, his value has plummeted. That said, would you like to hear something curious?
I have heard amongst the common man that providing a dowry in the form of cows was relatively common. Had I known that was your aim all along, I would have said that there was nothing I am lacking in. If you truly wish to reward me, do you not believe there is something else you could be offering me?
I propose Sir Strawberry keep his rank, but only at the cost of your time.
I propose Sir Strawberry keep his rank regardless, because he's been a good cow. Such goodness is rare in this world. The increase in cows show that he is worthy of being their leader. He is a good model for them.
Now come over here and make your demands in person.
[ the shawl is too warm to be wrapped around her, so she folds it neatly along with the other gifts that he's given her. it became obvious where the cows are coming from: it seems that rover has an entire bag full of them in different colours, just a little away from the frame. ]
[ is he just the tiniest bit disappointed she doesn't seem to delve too deeply into his mention of a dowry and all its implications? either way, he doesn't show a hint of it in his response back if just because he's more focused on the last sentence. ]
They do say that men are rather useless without proper leadership. Without those in power, the lands become lawless and the people all the more vicious. ... Sir Strawberry will have to do his best to fulfill that role. If he fails, he would only have his patron to blame.
Speaking of his patron, it sounds a lot to me as if they may be desiring to see me right at this moment? Well, what do you think? Is there truth to my assumptions?
