[Success. He turns another page and gets out of his voices.]

I've heard this particular author has a few works if you would like to repeat this exercise later.

I would certainly like to!

[Pinches Emet's cheek a little before his expression grows a little more sincere rather than joking.]

... I do want to be able to spend more time with you. You and Cosmo both.

[He huffs.]

Even if it is simply lounging around with no point. For myself, of course. I don't believe Cosmo could do that if he tried.

I suppose Cosmo could read to us while we lounge. In fact, why not have him read a lecture?

I could give you homework.

No, in this scenario you're my fellow student on the benches. Cosmo gives us both homework.

I'd just refuse to do the homework and yours would magically get done, you know.

Do you mind staying out all night? Your unit won't get worried, will they?

[He waves a hand languidly]

Oh, they'll be fine! If anything, I wouldn't be surprised if they don't notice I am gone for a day.

Then I'm stealing your company, and I hope you don't mind sleeping outdoors.

[he laughs, patting Emet on the shoulder]

Oh, I'm sure I'll be fine! It is your old creaky back I'm worried about.

If you think you are getting out of being a pillow, you are sorely mistaken. Your penance for being so tall.

A pillow is one thing, but do you mean to use me as a mattress, as well?

I'm afraid you already agreed. No need to try to worm out of it now.

Well, I wasn't saying no. Shall I sing you to sleep as well?

Of course.

[A little demanding as he nestles against him making good on his words of using him as a pillow/mattress.]

[He chuckles but wraps his arms around Emet, letting him get comfortable and stroking his hair slowly.]

A bit of a pity that I haven't yet recalled any lullabies from our world... But I suppose I've picked up a few from Lily and Persephone.

[He closes his eyes.]

If you ever desire to squirrel away with my phone for a few hours and browse memories, I would let you. Or I suppose you could take a vast number of memories, but I haven't seen that work out well for anyone.

[He keeps up the petting, humming in thought.]

Would there be a way for me to tell which memories are the peaceful ones? I do not feel ready to see anything beyond that.

I can give you a select list from my own. Though if you go back earlier incidents such as the Firebird are the worst you will see in my memories. You are more liable to die of embarrassment or embarrass me.

Well, then... Do I get a select list of your most embarrassing memories?

Not at all. You have to dig through them to find them. I'll simply give you a time frame that is safe.

Most likely you will end up hearing debates and lectures.

That is not a bad thing, is it?

[Grabby hands for the phone, then!]

[He hands it to him. And the earlier memories have little tags on them that denote the subject and whose in them. Another reason why he never has points is because it all goes into replaying memories. He shows him which sections to avoid.]

Enjoy yourself.

[He doesn't mind if Levity uses his points either. That's what they are there for after all. Memories and flowers and ridiculous gifts.]

[Well, he's polite enough to wire Emet some points first! Can't deprive him of the opportunity to buy more flowers for Cosmo and Five, after all.]

Oh, I'm quite surprised to see how organized it all is. I would have expected that to be too much effort for you!

[He's just teasing, though; he can understand why Emet would do that, and besides it's a lot of help. He settles down to watch, deciding to start with some memories of Emet's youth and childhood. Embarrassing baby pictures!!]

[That's sweet and he does take notice. Emet simply watches over his shoulder what he selects. It isn't to monitor him, but he enjoys watching his memories even if they are embarrassing.]

You'll get a strange view of Amaurot through such young eyes, you know. I didn't appreciate the finer aspects of debating back then.
