Tiferet tilts her head to one side. "I'm not sure I'd call any of them exorbitant. All my basic needs are accounted for by our government, after all, so why shouldn't I use my funds as I please?" Pause. "I'll say...a box of fine bonbons recently. Not a normal indulgence for me."

Tack:

Silk. The lady who raised the worms was old and sweet.

I spent a whole cut. I swear all the Damsels bought chocolate just to torture me.

Nothing but ship's biscuits and damn peas for a month. I'm amazed I lived.

Bo'sun gave me the dress after.

"...I don't follow. People are supposed to feel guilty about buying stuff they like? What?"

((OOC: Meg comes from a society where all basic needs are freely provided, and rampant consumerism of luxury goods is encouraged. She wouldn't necessarily see anything weird about it))

Micah: “I bought some sugary treats meant for Beast’s Night. I did not use them for Beast’s Night, Terran and I just ate them. I’ll be honest, I don’t really buy myself a lot of treats.”

Charlie:
Exorbitant? Oh, probably my wind-surfing equipment. Which I guess was fine, but I splurged extra by getting the wetsuit in a matching color even though the black and red one was cheaper😅

I just wanted to be matchy-matchy with my sail! I look cool like that!🤦‍♀️🥰🌊

"An odd question to ask me, #QueerCharChat, as I am never good and always deserve the harshest punishment.

I treat myself whenever fancy strikes, all the while laughing evilly and murmuring, 'Oh, Lord Blackthorne, you are so very bad.'"

Wilken:
I don't think I've ever spent money on anything like that.

Ilak:
Oh come now, nothing?

Wilken:
My sword.
And perhaps my horse when I was an assassin. Loved that horse.

Ilak:
But you needed those things, what about fun things?

Wilken:
I still have my sword, it counts.

Betti: ooh, that was definitely a bolt of really high quality silk. I bought it after I sold a really nice hat to one of the noble ladies. I'll likely use it for more hats but something like this was so worth it. Maybe I'll drape Handsome in some first. That'll be a treat!

“Earlier today I muttered those words after renting out an arcade for for baby and I to play. And it’s true! We have been good and absolutely deserved a treat!”

Did you worry about the-

“The cost? No, we’re rockstars.”

Did you just interrupt me?

“You think really slowly.”

Virgil:

I don't really buy things. My petty cash budget is large. I've bought one thing with my own money in years.

Lucifer never got to see the ocean, and... I bought these lifetime cruise vouchers... They were very expensive.

Just... in case.

Well, under the circumstances of my life, I haven't actually had the chance to do this, yet, but, when the time comes that I can use the money I've been earning to go shopping for something really nice, on my own, personally, 🧵

Kyoka: "I'm actually one of the ones trying to get other people to splurge on themselves most of the time! For myself, nothing big or dramatic. Some music, posters, books for my room. The really rare books tend to come from... family libraries."

#QueerCharChat Day 23 - Rowan

I don't know if it was because I'd done anything good though. I think I just ran out of resistance.

The other answer is the leather jacket I bought Bryn last week. It's bike safe, so functional, but that was definitely a little treat for me.

#QueerCharChat Day 23 - Rowan

I have two answers, equally valid. I bought myself a vintage acoustic guitar I definitely didn't need a few months ago, just because it was cute. It's covered in flowers done with pyrography and I'd been resisting it every time I went past the shop for months.

Jane’s mood recovers significantly, calming down. “Oh, let me think… It was when I cheered up Cam by having his breastplate reforged, fixing the damage from his fall. I bought a 1700 year old book detailing the Korris jungles of the western strand.”

Nothing.
I only make good financial decisions.

This question is simple a playful prompt asking about a time they splurged on a guilty pleasure or luxury item, and how they talked yourself into buying it despite the high cost.

“This one’s hard Mr. Host. I consider myself a very kind person and I always try to right my wrongs as quickly as possible. If I had to think real deep thoughts I might say my younger self. He was so closeted and stuck behind societal pressure. Why I haven’t given it? I dunno, I
