[ but like, honestly, that's fine... after waking up in weird bunny suit outfits a few weeks ago it's whatever. he's gotta take his boots off tho so give him a second. ]
Well, I can't say it's something I'm particularly experienced with, but I'll do the best I can.
[ but he also hates being bad at anything
therefore he will do it! toeing out of his boots, he'll take the shoes and examine them for a second. the buckles absolutely do not fit and they are too tight, but, he's not the tallest guy in the world, so. ] Any reason why you want to learn?
[ alright, welp. he gets them on relatively successfully, and rights himself properly, standing up straight. it's really just years of walking in the boots of a light armor that make this possible - balancing on a heel is a lot easier than balancing with steam propulsion moving you around all over the place.
so! he takes a couple steps, pulling a face at the pinch. you can actually see them, since he's wearing his silks, which are now higher off the ground! ] I hope you're not asking me to do this because you're going to frame me for murder. [ this is very deadpan. ]
With this? No. Though, I think I pulled them off. [ that's laughing and teasing, with a waggle of his brows. ] Rather, my armor at home is steam powered by the heels, so, I'm used to keeping my balance.
[ nothing like being force ejected out of your boots if you fuck up to really teach you how to operate things! he will offer his shoulder to yuel while she's coming to put the shoes on in case she needs something to balance on. ]
Something like that. I am in service to His Majesty the Emperor as the Marquis of Order, head of the Black Iron Camp.
[ he makes sure she can stay steady, though! yuel you're so tall now. after, he'll come around and stand in front of her once she's in them. ] There. Try to think of stepping with your heel first, instead of putting down your whole foot to step as you would normally.
