He hugs her, for lack of any better ideas.

"Grandpa's dead."

Pause.

"Or I'm having a weird hallucination."

"Aww, Patience," he says, and hugs her again.

Hugs.

Sniffles.

Snuggles. Such snuggles. Comforting snuggles, he hopes.

She seems to find them helpful.

"This is weird. This is so weird. Also sort of gross."
Permalink

"Gross like how?"

Permalink

"The knowing all the - flesh - things. It kind of covers a lot of stuff."

Permalink

"Huh, I guess it would," he muses. "Knowing blood things is a little weird too, but it's not that gross. I mean, or I just don't gross that easy."

Permalink

"Maybe a combination? And also blood is basically one kind of thing, I think? Tubes and blood and that's it. There's definitely kinds of flesh."

She gives him an apologetic sort of nuzzle. "So, um, mood killer twice over, let's reschedule for Sometime After I Am Used To This And There Has Been A Funeral I Guess."

Snugs.

"Also possibly there should be a responsible conversation instead of just flirting, because, primes, politics, bleah? Should there be that because of those?"

"Yeah."

Hugs? Hugs.

Hugs.

"Okay."

He kisses her on the cheek, gets out of her lap, and goes to find some clothes - plenty of options in his room, so there's no good reason to put the old ones back on if he doesn't feel like it. A nice matching shirt and kilt, Thiyecine-style, purple with blue trim. Perfect.

She smiles weakly and gets up. "You're gonna have to show me where they are. I can tell how many bodies are where, but I don't know a damn thing about doors and staircases that I didn't this morning."

Permalink

"I promise not to get you lost in my own house," he says, hugging her again.

Permalink

Hugs. "Good."

So. Down the stairs to the kierten, first.

Mud is cute. Patience is also cute.

"Okay," says Loel, "let's go see everybody."
