I like how Osric and Xander are having their decade-spanning 'please come home, brother' / 'no' thing, and yet there's still a whimsical delivery gryphon with their little hat all cute in the background lol
This scene also reveals the reason Osric took the form that he did - his horns and ears are like his brother's crown, and his tail like the poker used to push the letters into the fireplace. I always said their transformations, while sexy, are also symbolic (it's in the story for those who want a little more depth)
if you're not into backstory and drama don't worry, this scene is over soon + back to adventure~
