As Fabian listens to her speak, something changes on his face. His expression was relatively neutral after that dance, but a smile is slowly starting to crack on his face more and more as he listens to her. Like he's amused, or-- maybe a little bit more than that. There's an edge of fondness in that smile that can't be missed.

"Rose," he echoes back to her, before thrusting his hand out towards her for a handshake. "I admit you are rather lucky to have met one of the best bards around. You certainly could have gotten a worse impression!"

Some bards are cringe, Rose. He'll at least agree on that.

"I am Fabian Aramais Seacaster, Maximum Legend! And I must say-- I feel rather lucky for having met you today as well. You remind me of someone from my own friend group."
