He hugs her some more. How convenient that she is so huggably arranged.

That is a convenient feature of lap-sitting, yes.

So cozy!

He kind of wants to - well. Get carried away. But he already decided not to do that. And cozy snuggles are nice too.

They are! And sticking to one's rational decisions over one's immediate desires is a good skill to have. 

Eventually she sighs, "I should probably get up before we end up heading in an unwise-for-the-moment direction again."

"That does sound like a good idea," he says, a little regretfully.

She slowly extricates herself, stretching when she's done. "Oof. I should definitely take a hot bath tonight."

"Also a good idea."

"Woooooorth it."

He grins at her.

"So, what with the flying I wasn't really paying attention to where this is relative to the rest of the castle."

"I could fly you back to your room," he offers. "Or you can go have your hot bath up there," he gestures at the balcony overlooking the ballroom from the far end. "There's a whole needlessly impressive guest suite behind those doors."

"Ooh, how needlessly impressive?"

"Very!"

"I think I shall have to check it out just on its own merits separate from the need for a bath, then."

He smiles.

Up the stairs to the balcony, then, and then she can open the doors to the suite and confirm that it is as glorious as advertised.

It's pretty glorious. A few more things gilded or bejewelled than strictly necessary, maybe, but the overall picture works well as long as you don't mind a little ostentation.

Jewels are pretty! There are definitely circumstances under which they can be tacky but Siva feels like this is not one of them. What's the suite layout like?

The doors from the balcony open into the sitting room; there's also a bedroom (with an enormous bed) and a bathroom (with an enormous bath).

The bedroom has a fancy magic wardrobe, right?

Yes. It's very fancy.

Good, then she will not be without clean clothes to change into after bathing. She investigates the bathroom more closely.

Everything in it is gorgeous. The bathtub is, as previously discussed, huge.

Are there fancy bath products and cleaning tools?

Yes. So many of them. Fancy and in some cases magical.
