Akibel Mowar is on his way home from the blacksmith's when he spots it. People are shrieking and fleeing from it, which seems reasonable, as it's a fuckoff huge snake with a mirror for a face. A big mirror.
Kib can't so much flee. He can shriek - he can lurch in the direction of the nearest house and try the door - it's locked. He can amble briskly...
He can break into a run when the snake gains on him and fall flat on his face.
And he can get eaten up.
And it's too bright too bright too bright and he flings his arm over his eyes.

Music magic is really very handy that way! And they reach the palace and Maitimo wishes him good night.

(Aly reads. Aly lies on her back in bed swirling shines around on the ceiling. Aly gets sucked into a stupid argument with her creche friends about Lapis politics. Aly brushes her hair, picks a nice outfit, she wants to impress Ayd-)

- Kib wakes up. It's weird how the memories slot into place: he remembers them when he wakes up like they're fresh but they don't fade like normal dreams, they fade like old memories, like they're things that happened to him (her) twenty or thirty years ago.
Well. Another day.
Well. Another day.
In the afternoon Findekáno sends instructions for getting from not-often-occupied parts of the gardens into a window that he assures Kib will be left open.
We can keep doing fabric shops. But beds have some lovely advantages!
Just after the Mingling?
He's there by then.
The best way to make Maitimo happy about this rather than dramatically jealous and grouchy would be to say to him 'I got you a present, it's the boy you like' but he is unwilling to do that without Kib's approval and uncertain how to acquire Kib's approval without, well, saying. He doesn't worry too long on this because Kib is cute and the only relationship rule he and Maitimo have are 'if you don't like what I'm doing you can manipulate me into not doing it'.

He gets a kiss on the other side. We're safe here unless we're very very loud, I have a known preference servants not come in my rooms.
Kiss. Do not actually scream. The stonework is meant to be insulating and it is pretty good.
He makes such adorable faces! Kisses.
It is a very big bed, rather excessively so for even a very tall Elf. It is a good size for activities that might involve a lot of flailing and giggling.

That's convenient!
Now, Kib is curious if there is a back-of-his-neck equivalent anywhere on Findekáno.

There is probably nothing that strong or he would probably have discovered it but this is very nice. And this is very nice.

Kib will have to settle for that, then, for very dedicated values of settling.
Does Kib have an idea of what he likes in bed because they can do a very thorough survey but they can also jump to things that seem appealing, a thorough survey will be very time-consuming...
secondchance
Kib has vague guesses! But he didn't know about the neck thing and the neck thing is really important so they should probably do surveying too.
Fewer clothes?
