Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[He is definitely bigger than him enough for that to happen. Levity laughs, shifting a little to let Emet be comfortable.]

Aww, and here I thought I'd come up with a clever way for me to avoid doing any work.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

Would you like me to carry you? I am feeling rather generous.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

Hmm~ I do worry if it won't prove too heavy a challenge for your arms!

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

Then it is up to you to think skinny thoughts.

[Surely this is how this works.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[That's absolutely how it works.]

I promise to do my best. Shall we give it a try, then?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[He nods, gets off him and holds out his arms to hold him. Very dramatic! It is Emet after all.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[Dramatic!! Levity approves, though. He laughs, rolling in the air to let himself practically ~fall~ into Emet's arms, as per the dramatism specs.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[He is without a doubt going to lose some air in both altitude and the huff of exertion he makes when he has arms fully of Levity. But he manages to somewhat keep them aloft.]

... Was that...

[Yes, it was necessary.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[He just grins in reply, delighted at the effect.]

Yes.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[Well, he kisses the end of his nose and take them higher. But really he can't fly too far so he heads towards the harbor and the tall bridges there.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[Cute... As promised, he does his best to think skinny thoughts during the journey, just making himself comfortable in Emet's arms.]

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[The thoughts are appreciated even if they rudely don't translate to the physical world. But he does put them down eventually at the tall support spire of a bridge, the water and surrounding city an expanse around them. He does look up even though it is during the day.]

Do you still believe in the guidance of the stars?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[He laughs at the sudden transition of topic as he's set down - and then wraps an arm around Emet's shoulder, leaning onto him.]

Right now? We've only got one star to navigate by, and even that one is rather fake, I imagine.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[He leans back letting an arm wrap around his back.]

You are probably right. But fake or no, it still seems to be doing the best it can.

[He pats his side getting a good look at him again.]

You know, I think some of your pajamas might still fit in that form, considering the type you favor.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

Is that an invitation to a sleepover?

[Ruffles Emet's hair! This is the price you pay for being smaller.]

But to answer your question... Let's say that I want to believe. Logically, one could say that the stars are mere conglomerations of aether, guiding us only in the most physical sense. But that doesn't mean we cannot believe in them, that we cannot find our own answers in them.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

You certainly aren't going to fit on your own bed tonight, are you?

[At the hair ruffling, he does that thing where he looks offended, but he really isn't.]

But do you wish to? Or do you not?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[Good thing he's learned to read through Emet's tsun at this point! Ruffle ruffle.]

Hmm... I suppose I do. Of course I would still like to find my own way, but stars aren't the worst things to look for it in, hmm?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

They twinkle in their own way. And these are not the stars that we gazed upon together so many years ago, yet …

… do you have a favorite?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[god please pretend i have any idea what stars are visible from japan]

Aww, how sentimental.

[He laughs kindly, though.]

Well... I wonder, actually. They're all quite pretty, much like you say. And each one has its own meaning, doesn't it?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

[it is okay! I understand.]

Am I nothing but?

Each one does. But, why don't you draw one of your own? Who says we have to follow what others view how to connect the stars.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

Oh, you've got your way of being difficult, too.

[He hums, leaning onto the railing.]

Well, it would be obvious to make up a constellation based on our Bureau, wouldn't it?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

It would be obvious.

But is that you?

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

I suppose for it to be me I'd make up one that embodies your hope I won't wake you up from a nap.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[firstworldproblem]

Is that truly such a terrible fate? You can join me, you know.

Re: Monster Bingo - 415 - Levity

[weenwoon]

[He smiles, ruffling Emet's hair again]

Oh, certainly. Well, I suppose that's something your younger self would have worried about. I'll need to think up something new to menace you with.
