Re: [Evening, Day 5]

Why not? It makes me look cool.

[we have candles, I think we have candles?? so he's not totally in the dark.

anyway, he has arranged most of the bedding they got into something resembling a futon on the floor, with any extras laid out on the cot so that feels more like a comfy chair/sofa.

he sits down on the makeshift futon and taps the spot next to him]

Looking cool, is it...

[but he's teasing.

and i don't think we have candles unless you did something to get them. did someone make candles]

It's gotten a little more cozy.

[there is a very brief hesitation, then he goes to sit where indicated.]

[I DON'T THINK SO, then we're in the dark, how romantic]

Thanks to your contributions, yes.

What's disappointing?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

[is that more or less romantic than candle lit honestly.

well HE can see fine anyway

his hands fiddle on his knees]

...I'd promised to tell her a story. They've been arguing for days over which one it should be.

[ooohhhhhh noooooooooooooo.

a wry smile.]

... Ah.

I don't think there's a way for you to do that... indirectly?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

No, that's easy enough. But it doesn't sound like she'd be interested?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

I don't think so. But I can ask her to confirm.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

... Alright.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

... It really isn't personal. It's more like... your natures are incompatible?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

It isn't strange to be incompatible with a constellation. It's just strange she changed her mind so suddenly.

Anyway, there are many witches who are constellations?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

Those are witches on a higher level than hers, from what she mentioned.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

Well naturally. She's not a constellation?

But what I mean is, one can become the other.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

You're trying to have this conversation with the wrong person.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

Well I'm not allowed to have it with the right one.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

Why are you mad at me now?

[thefaultinthestars]

[opens his mouth a couple of times, and then just kind of deflates]

....I don't know why it bothers me. Naturally it's not really that strange. Maybe I was spoiled by no one really caring in these places un--

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

[wait hang on time to have a wheezy. The breath that he doesn't really need chokes off and the rest of the words don't come out]

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

[HE'LL WAIT, looking profoundly unimpressed]

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

...I'm not mad at you.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

What is that taboo? Have you figured it out yet?

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

...no. It seems quite random.

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

[just looks at him, thinking]

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[thefaultinthestars]

[since it's quiet, he also thinks, though probably about something else entirely]

Re: [Evening, Day 5]

[fullcursemeal]

[yes, most likely. because the next thing he does is cup his face to turn it towards him and kiss him]
