It was amazing how much work was necessary for a small get together, but also how quickly and easily it went with the help of another person. Especially when that person happened to be on staff

Is that a young troll full of anger and aggression making his way for the party people? It is! This is a rather unusual sight for anyone who knows Equius, and even if you don't it's still quite obvious by the look on his face that he isn't here to enjoy himself.
No, there's no fun allowed for this brute tonight, as he's here to mainly get a sense of just who else is at this Keep. Equius is simply standing off to the side, staring at each and everyone that passes with a calculating look as if he's judging/determining your strength right there on the spot.
"A troll of my status is used to isolation while being the envy of the lower class he stands over. The Highblood does not need to be friendly to his subjects and neither do I. I have my moirail, so I am not lonely."
And just like that, his arms fold right back up in his usual huffy stance. Mimmi won't see it, but Equius might actually be thinking about her words now or later.
"Yes it is-..." He lets out a frustrated sigh "Nice.. A moirail is crucial for any troll that could occasionally be seen as slightly over aggressive. She erm..."
How can Equius explain. He's not used to dealing with people that don't even know what a troll is.
"Evens me out, and in return I protect her and teach her the finer aspects of sophisticated living. I guard her with my life and-...Well, I would not be able to function without her."
He doesn't expect Mimmi to understand. He's heard that humans don't really use a quadrant system for relationships.
Oh! Mimmi gets it! For the most part, anyway. But it makes her think about Gideon, which... isn't exactly pleasant. Her smile fades slightly, but she clears her throat and replies. All cheeriness!
"Oh, ah, I think I understand. That really is quite lovely."

Kind of. Mimmi thinks trolls are really strange people.
"And I am afraid I do not know what a... 'moirail' is."

"...Yes, I suppose. You understand? I take it you had a type of moirail at one point?"

She really wishes he was, though. It'd make this place more bearable.

"Indeed. That is unfortunate. I dread to imagine how I would be without Nepeta."
