[ when kazunari rings the bell, he only waits for a moment or two before shadows coalesce beside the desk, and out pops aquila! they are sporting a pair of pitch black wings that sprout from their back, and have foregone the gloves; instead, their hands are the same pitch black, and they've got the origami eagle held carefully between clawed fingers. ]

Thanks for the bird, Kazunari. [ they give it a little wiggle. ] How can I help?

[dms]

[ whoa! he starts in surprise, but breaks into an easy grin. it shows off the fangs to go with the cat eyes and ears. ]

Nothing specific, I just wanted to chat, if that's okay? I haven't really had a chance to talk to you guys yet, so I wanted to fix that!

[ sweats in ooc stuff but anyway. ]

So you guys are affected, too! And you're a bird... do you know what kind? Eagles aren't usually black, are they?

[guestservices]

[ no worries on ooc, we're just happy you're here!

aquila turns their hand a bit, and the origami eagle disappears down their sleeve. ]

Sure. Love a good chat. Maybe the best part of my job, actually. [ they don't seem to mind at all! and to kazunari's question, they cock their head. one of the wings comes up and extends out some, enough that they can look at it out of the corner of their eye, and so kazunari can get a closer look if he wants one. ]

As for these things... I mean, I'm supposed to be an eagle, if the stories the others were telling me's true. Who knows, though! Saw somebody that looked like a dragon, earlier. Think these things really don't stick that much to reality, so I wouldn't overthink it.

Unless you think there's some kinda rhyme or reason? Why're you a cat.

[dms]

[ he will def go for a closer look! ]

Mm, "Aquila" is a constellation named for an eagle where I'm from, so I figured... [ eagle! and yet. ] Black makes you think look more like a crow, though.

[ or a raven. but he shrugs. ]

Something similar happened in the prism, and I got catty there sometimes, too. I just figured it had something to do with one of my past roles? Since I played a black cat for my first co-lead. I don't think I'm very cat-like otherwise?

[guestservices]

Oh. Why's it named after an eagle, do you know? Just the shape?

[ they will extend the wing to let him! the black shadow material is pitch black - it seems to absorb the light around it - and it's just slightly iridescent, almost purple at a very close look. ]

A crow'd be fine, too, though. I fly like a bird, I'm a bird, and that's about all I've got. [ they sound a little amused, and then peer at kazunari's cat features as he comes in to inspect it. ]

Huh, maybe. Maybe the universe just thinks you're cute like a cat.

week 2, sunday

[kazunari rings the bell, and after a few moments a swirl of shadows appear for gemini to step out of it. they pick up the painting though and seem to sort of just look at it for a moment.]

...art is very important to you, isn't it Mister Miyoshi?

[dms]

[ oh are we not doing hellos? okay. ]

It is, yeah. The first time I stepped into an art museum changed my life, and now I'm majoring in it.

I know it's not as important to everyone, though, so I hope this okay as a tip.

[guestservices]

[sometimes you're just kind of an asshole, yeah.]

It's better than some I've received. Despite the fact we aren't allowed room to be picky, I would say that this is more favorable. Thank you.

[and so the painting goes away to somewhere safe.]

How may I help you?

[dms]

You're welcome, anytime~!

[ beams! he's delighted! ]

I actually wanted to ask you about Alphi, though. He was supposed to do the task for healing, right? He wanted to help me, so I'll do it for him, if that's okay.

[guestservices]

[love that for you kazu. but with that taken care of, gemini folds their arms over their chest, claws tapping on their elbow as they think this over.]

...while I admire your gumption and approach, you needn't worry. Someone came to me yesterday to take up the task in his stead for your healing.

[sometimes...people are still good.]

week 4, wednesday

[guestservices]

[virgo is, as per usual these days, standing in front of the padlocked door. but now they are standing in front of the padlocked door and chewing on dango.]

You want something?

[dms]

I need something new to draw! Sooooooo tell me: is there someone you miss from where you're from? I want to draw them for you!

[guestservices]

Tch. There's no one I miss.

[dms]

Ehhh? No one at all? You never get lonely or anything?

[guestservices]

Never!

week 4, wednesday

[guestservices]

[ est grandma hours :pensive:

when kazunari goes to the dream suite and dozes off, he'll find himself standing in a blank, if fuzzy neutral space.

aquila is also there! they give him a little sup nod. ]

Kazunyari. Good with your hands, huh? [ they're holding the wagashi! wao ]

[dms]

[ this space is weird but he's going to ignore that and just give them a bright smile! ]

As all artists are! It's not as good as Omimi could make back home, but I did my best. Besides, there's not much else to do over here. Might as well try to improve my skills!

So~? What do you think?

[guestservices]

[ ignoring it is totally fine. aquila doesn't seem bothered by it. they examine the wagashi for a moment and proclaim - ]

Pretty! They're really pretty. 'm impressed.

[dms]

Hehe, thanksies! I just hope they taste as good as they look... Cooking and stuff isn't really my specialty, but Shino taught me a little in the hotel.

I'm glad we can still talk to you guys, even though we're... you know. It'd be way more lonely otherwise.

[guestservices]

Haha. I'll eat 'em later, I'm not super hungry right now. I'll let you know.

[ though they tap the wagashi between their gloved fingers. ] Maybe I'm a bad judge, though. Are they sweets?

[ and to the second part, they hum. ] And, you can thank your fellow housemates for that one. They've been working hard to get you that. We could only typewriter you for a while - now you get dreams.

week 4, sunday

[guestservices]

Virgo is fine, they're with us.
Tell me how things are going.

[dms]

Thank goodness. I was so worried!
Um... The doors are open and some crazy guy is here? He destroyed all the stuff we had to send flowers, and now I guess we can't even send letters? GoGo was the one handling that, right?

[guestservices]

I see.
We're all in contact with each other right now - go check in with the others or come find me in the dream suite later, alright?

[dms]

Right. It's easier to talk in person, so I'll come find you later, okay?

[ off to the dream suite then ]

[guestservices]

[ off to the dream suite.

aquila pops up in the dream space! they give a little wave. ]

Hey.
