[That...would track, though. Brothers dragging family along for the sake of appearances, or to make sure that the family name isn't tarnished. So, a kindred spirit, then. Though it must be nice to be have the freedom to act out and ramble about feasting on alcohol and companionship, even within the walls of that confinement.]
Mm. You might not have noticed, but I'm not very well-liked when it comes to those kinds of affairs. Why else would my first brother keep me on such a short leash? It's to ensure that the "Mad Dog" of Eckhart can't cause any embarrassment to the family name.
So no, I don't find things like that very enjoyable. But maybe it's different for you?
[Clearly the news hasn't made it around to his social circles. Perhaps he could pretend to know, but Tyki prefers to do his research β if he bothers at all. Showing up is enough of a gift to his family most of the time.

Events like these aren't meant to be enjoyable to normal people. Unless you're the sort who prefers gossip and empty conversation, I suppose. On that short leash, I doubt they even let you try the wine, hm?
