[Although Liem doesn’t necessarily put that much stock in Sebastian’s purported opinions about facial hair, the demon is still quite literally the first person Liem actually knows to tell him his beard looks good on him, and his dry expression does twitch briefly closer to a smile. Whether this is because he’s pleased or just amused by the irony remains a mystery.]
Certainly, you may. [Just the first of probably many times Liem will say this while squashing lowkey anxiety over the demon’s company. He already knows he can’t just avoid him forever, though, especially given Sebastian’s new faction leanings, so he may as well be civil.] I might not be entirely familiar with the hymns themselves, but as far as context goes, I’m well-supplied.
[Even if Sebastian might not have visited or heard of the Church of the Key before, it should be obvious that he works there. If his clerical robes weren’t enough of a hint, the fact that the dwarf on the church steps is wearing almost identical vestments should make it obvious.]
Though, I should mention, it would be more appropriate to call me Father Talbott, at least while I’m on duty.
