Accomplice: Thank you. :)
Accomplice: Would you like a distraction? I can bring my designs and we could brainstorm things together.

[Pretend that was Hades. Whoops!]

Hades: I would.
Hades: Do come over.
Hades: Perhaps we can even enjoy some of our fancier rooms.

[it's ok im sleep deprived and cant read]

Accomplice: Oh... It's true I haven't seen all of them! I would love that.
Accomplice: I'll be there soon, then. :)

[And, some fifteen minutes later, there's a knock on the BiT door!]

[He arrives in the most casual thing he has that is an upgrade from a bathrobe. Why not spend your days in comfort if you know you aren't leaving, right?

Upon opening the door he gives him a hug.]

[OH... unexpected but sweet! And by this point Levity is back to his full 7 ft, so Hades gets the Good Tall Person Hug in return.]

It's good to see you.

I see you’ve grown. Do you miss not towering over people?

[He starts to lead him to his room.]

It would be quite nice to go back to it whenever I wanted, I admit! But I gather the only way to do so is taking an age-altering potion.

[Hey Emet do you want to link arms, y/y.]

Careful, you might find yourself only taller.

[Guess they have linked arms because he’s too tired to be fussy about it.]

Show me your progress, then. I’m curious to see what you’ve come up with. Unless you’d like to explore first.

[Success! His dastardly plan worked!]

I would quite like to explore! Unless it would be too tiring for you right now?

I imagine I’ll let you bounce around the room as I watch.

You’ve seen the beach and planetarium. We do have a dance hall and a movie theater. Vergil has an outdoor space but that should be his to show you. Ah, and an aquarium.

Oh, I think someone has mentioned the aquarium to me before! I would love to see that.

[He chuckles.]

You're quite lucky with the kind of rooms you can get, hmm? We are rather more restricted by our aesthetic. Not that I dislike it, as such, but I would prefer to be able to have more... organic spaces, as it were.

[He taps his chin as they head there.]

Could you make a room of holograms? Then you could almost make it seem real.

[I am on mobile so I can’t find the room description but it is half office / half aquarium. Plenty of very large tanks that cover the walls.

Emet finds a couch and sprawls across it.]

Or you just might have to import in the foliage.

Oh, I could certainly have holograms. I believe Intensity has a lot of notes on creating those as well... But I'm certain you know that I enjoy things with more presence, as it were.

[Levity goes to put his notes and everything on an available desk before, indeed, skipping off to check out the aquariums! Heeeere fishy fishy fishy.]

I do wonder if I could have someone on LiliS help me out, although I'm pretty certain that the two people I know on that unit best do not have much interest in gardening.

That man was serious about his work. I do wish him the best.

[There will be brightly colored fish abound along with that wavy reflection that litters the floor and walls that makes everything seem a little more serene.]

What sort of plants do you like? I was imagining bright and bold, but you may yet surprise me.

[FISHY!!! He smiles, watching them. They're pretty.]

Mm... Depends on the setting, I suppose. I do quite like variety!

[He gasps in delight as an idea comes to him.]

Oh--what a fool I am. I should definitely have lilies!

[like, you know, his WIFE,]

[He can’t help but laugh as he slouches further into the couch.]

Of course. Well, they are hardly that expensive on the shop. Treat yourself. A little life and warmth to brighten up your space.

[Ehehe ★]

I certainly will. Oh, and speaking of plants - did I tell you I finally gave Ardyn his gift?

You did not. Was he delighted?

[Emet is 99% sure his was. How could he not be?]

[Cute... Levity turns to face him, raising his hand and holding his thumb and index finger apart to indicate approximate size.]

I think he was rather touched! I made him a lapel pin, about this big, with the ornament of the three herbs that are the main ingredients of absinthe--the drink, that is. I confess, I was quite delighted to see him wear it.

How clever! A gift unique and specialized for him and the decisions he has made up until now. He did tell me once that he did prefer his Baritones name to his actual one.

And of course you were delighted. You did always enjoy watching others flourish and grow with just a hint of pushing. You can be terribly showy, but I found your subtle touches always had more impact.

[...closes his eyes briefly because of COURSE absinthe actually likes his new name better but let levity call him "ardyn" because he doesn't hate it so that's okay. god. why are baritones like this. someone's going to get a talk later.]

Is it not the contrast between my usual extravagance and those subtler acts that provides that impact?

[Don’t think he didn’t catch that.]

Levity?

[He can deny things.]

What is it?

[Motioning for him to come sit with him.]

Missing my company already?

[He chuckles fondly, sitting down to pat Emet on the head.]
