[ NO???? ]

i just thought you and lalli were staying together.
that's all.
it's fine.
nothing really notable.

[enflame]

( WHY IS HE THE ONE EMBARRASSED BY THIS??? )

Oh. Yeah.

How did you know?

[actus]

[ ................... wait. oh. what? uhm. oh. okay? yes. ]

he told me.
i was teaching him how to bake a cake.

[ YOU'RE WELCOME??? ]

[enflame]

( Wow, that's a nice soft image......abnormally soft. )

Oh, that's nice of you. He appreicates sweet things.

He's better off with someplace to stay instead of hanging out in the elements when he needs to rest.

( It's definitely more complicated than that but that's the 101 of it. )

[actus]

[ it's very soft.. minus the stabbing the batter parts. ]

yeah. i don't blame you.

he's a lot like my sister back home.

[enflame]

( Ah yes, that's the Lalli he knows and maybe-likes. )

Oh? That's interesting. ( How many Lalli-like people are out there in the world...that's kind of terrifying. ) What do you mean by that, though?

[actus]

[ maybe-likes. ]

she suffers from sensory overload a lot.
basically she gets overwhelmed easily.
she locked herself in her room for a couple of years.
she didn't like being around people or touching them.
she still doesn't, but she's getting better.

[enflame]

( Oh.....wow. Kind of embarrassing that Emil doesn't really know anything about the technicals of this, but they don't really talk about stuff like that in his world. Sensory overload, huh...interesting. )

A couple of years ?? That's a lot. I'm sorry.

That does sound a lot like him, though. ( well sometimes lol ) Except replace the room thing with wrapping himself in something soft for a few hours.

[actus]

[ he's educating the masses since he has a "friend" who works the "black market" as a doctor. yeaaaah. ]

i didn't know her back then. but my guardian had to deal with the brunt of it.

and something soft? like a blanket?
so what you're saying is blankets are good gift ideas.

[enflame]

Yeah, blankets are a go-to. My jackets work sometimes. Anything he can cover up with.

( It doesn't feel very privacy-invading talking about this since apparently Akira Knows and Gets It. )

If you're getting him a gift, that's the best idea I can come up with. I should probably get him one anyway since there's only one in my suite.

[actus]

well, if he ever tells me his birthday, i'll know the perfect gift.
i've mostly been using mine to keep the egg warm but.
since it hatched... yeah. i just have a blanket fort in the middle of my suite.

[ no he's not seven???? ]

[enflame]

( A blanket fort.....maybe Akira is the soft-senpai after all. )

The lizard does complicate things a bit. It's not like rooms here have a lot of space.

Yours apparently has enough room for a...blanket fort.

( He is seven, it's endearing. )

[actus]

it's a small fort.
but it works.
the lizard seems to like it.

[ oh right - ]

what'd you name yours?

[enflame]

Lalli named them Lisko. They're one of the yellow ones.

( They're a family and he won't apologize for it!!! )

[actus]

lalli named it?
that's kind of adorable.
i haven't named mine yet. dunno if hibiki named his, either.

[ he's actually really happy for the little family's new baby lisko. ]

[enflame]

It's Finnish, but I'll let him win this once. ( You let him win all the time, but okay. )

Pick something regal and grand. The best names have an air of power to them!

[actus]

[ are you kidding - ]

what does it translate to?

and maybe i'll name him after a greek god. or something.
i like mythology.

[enflame]

( Despite Emil's previous statement: )

Lizard.

( Emil doesn't know dick about Greece and mythology is stupid so he'll bite his tongue on that one, aren't you lucky. )

[actus]

[ it's fucking lizard. ]

... that's not a name that's a description????

[enflame]

Can't it be both?

( He might be less inclined to defend Finnish nonsense if his own suggestion wasn't just "lizard" in his own language. )

[actus]

that's like calling you "human" instead of "emil."

[ ?????? ]

[enflame]

( He guesses.....? They're just idiots, okay. )

Take it up with Lalli then, he named them! ( HOPE YOU LIKE THAT BUS HE JUST THREW YOU UNDER, LAL )

[actus]

[ they're all idiots, it's okay. ]

oh, i will. i'll call him up right now --

do you think our minds can do threeways?

[ THREEWAY CALLING. NOT THREESOMES.... ]

[enflame]

( THAT AWKWARDNESS FALLS ON DEAF EARS HOW LUCKY )

What? I don't know! Why don't you just call him on your own?

[actus]

[ LIKE HE LOVES YOU GUYS BUT NOT LIKE THAT? ]

hmmmm.
i could. later maybe.
i'll have to try group texts later.
