[






okay now they're really laughing ]

[ktiseos]

Get down here, would you.

[stop hovering by his ceiling and laughing at him! damn!]

[guestservices]

[ hehehehe

they seem very pleased with themselves, reaching up under their veil and probably wiping a tear from their eye, if they have eyes. however, they will come down from their ceiling investigation gracefully, hovering a little bit in front of emet-selch, wineglass in hand. ]

Haha. "Doing nothing for me" - you know it's my job to do stuff for you, not the other way around, right?

[ktiseos]

And it is also, evidently, also up to us to do things at your request.

[their tasks. huffs.]

You know very well what I meant.

[guestservices]

Yeah, because you earn things by doing it.

[ they make a little tsk tsk noise, and then take a drink from their wine - the glass disappears under the veil. ]

But if you wanna do favors for me just because, hey, I don't mind that either.

[ktiseos]

I am a busy man, you realize.

[he watches the glass disappear, curiously, as he drinks from his own.]

Besides the fact that I will have something to ask from you later, as I said.

[guestservices]

Oh, I realize.

[ they snort a little to that, but settle into place - the hovering does stop, as they touch back down on the ground, and the shadowy wings retreat into their back once more. ]

's right. You after one of my Room Service powers, then?

[ktiseos]

I shall be, yes, when I am able to ask. I feel as if I ought to focus upon finishing what I have started first.

[and free aquarius up to help again...

on the other hand these things take time, so.]

[guestservices]

I'll start thinking up the best way to torment you with a task then.

[ this is obviously joking, though. they laugh, and sit on the edge of the bed with their wine glass. ]

But yeah. We'll talk about it later in the week. No problem.

[ktiseos]

You know, I think I have changed my mind.

[but he's probably joking too. it's fine.]

[guestservices]

Playing hard to get! Hey, that's your choice to be a coward.

[ aquila takes another drink, still sounding very amused. ]

[ktiseos]

I have never described myself as easy.

[takes another sip... he is running low on wine by now.]

But I do somewhat miss the capability for flight.

[guestservices]

[ they will reach over and top off his glass for him with the bottle they got from the shadow bartender. ]

Something you could do at home? It is pretty great.

[ktiseos]

I had a spell or two with the capacity for it, yes. Though never quite in the sense that you offer.

I have found myself curious about it.

[guestservices]

It's fun like this. You can travel so fast - faster than people'd believe, if you're good at it.

[ they hum; the shadowy wings form at their back again, just briefly, stretching out behind their back. ] I can't imagine doing it any other way.

[ktiseos]

[the fingers wrapped around his glass twitch, arm shifting briefly as if he thinks to touch them, but. his free hand is occupied.

he takes another drink instead.]

I knew someone who did, as well. Mayhap that is where my curiosity springs from.

[guestservices]

Oh yeah? Wings and all?

[ they tilt their head, glancing over. ]

[ktiseos]

Lacking in the capacity, within the Prism, but- yes. Wings and all.

[guestservices]

Not a very common trait, wings. Or, at least knowing how to use them.

[ their shadowy ones flutter behind them, briefly. ]

So you want to try it to be like them? That's sweet.

[ktiseos]

Something of the sort, [he says, a little quieter.] A form of connection, perhaps.

[guestservices]

[ they quiet for a second, and murmur: ]

Being away from someone important, one day feels like three years.

[ but, they shake their head after that. ] Makes sense. You miss whoever this is, huh?

[ktiseos]

...so it does.

[though-- really, it had only been a day or so since he'd seen him, before coming here. maybe that's why it all feels so fresh, despite going home.]

And so I do. I believe we have spoken of them before.

[guestservices]

Your hostage, right?

[ktiseos]

They would not make an effective one if I did not miss them dearly, I expect.

[so-- yeah.]

[guestservices]

[ i personally am proud of emet for how emotionally open this tag is

they glance at their cup, and then take a drink. ]

No, I imagine not. [ with a little huff. ] You brought him up during the trial, I remember.
