Let's not get too carried away. I still feel like I'm on shaky ground with plain old humanity, some days.
[She wobbles a little, when he alights upon his newly claimed perch, but she stabilizes by the time they hit the stairs, even if the extra weight makes climbing up a little more arduous than it might otherwise have been.]
The sheets aren't top quality or anything, but I grabbed what I thought you'd like for starters.
[Still, she doesn't hesitate to lead them down the hall to her own. It's cute and tidy, though there's still plenty of space to fill now that she isn't sharing with anyone.]
[ He peers in with curiosity. It's interesting to him how a room can express personality. He can't always define his, let alone express it in color and fabrics that aren't just black. ]

[ V interrupts this chatter to be helpful: ]
"About the Dead Man and Medusa."
And it just goes on and on and on and on.
no subject
[Her mind just leaps to the various Medusa mythos, because her instincts are geared in a very specific direction for the sake of her own survival.]
Is it an epic, or is Griffon just being dramatic?
no subject
You keep readin' it over and over! Of course it goes on forever!
[ Griffon flaps his wings in defiance!!! ]
no subject
You could always distract yourself with learning one you like while he does that, you know.
no subject
[ Such a squawking... ]
no subject
[You know, the bard himself.]
no subject
[ And he wants to emulate neither. ]
You seem stressed.
no subject
[But she reaches out and begins gently soothing those clearly ruffled feathers of his.]
V, I think you need a nap.
[Flawless logic.]
no subject
[ Also, how is this scene his doing? ]
no subject
[She hooks her thumb over her shoulder.]
You tell me. Is it snack time or nap time?
no subject
[ Don't even pretend otherwise. ]
Who are you calling bent out of shape?
no subject
[It's a vicious cycle, really.]
no subject
I don't know what you mean.
Why do you think he has anything to do with me?!
[ Wow, you two are idiots. ]
no subject
Wow, I guess you're both getting snacks and naps then.
no subject
[ V just drinks some of his tea. He's clearly being victimized by his friends. ]
no subject
[Notably, she has kept petting the bird through his histrionics.]
You were doomed the minute you crossed my threshold. Want to go see your room?
no subject
[ Top on the list of her goals, surely. V sets aside the cup and rises, looking bemused. ]
Of course.
Dibs on the nerd!
[ By which Griffon means he's riding on her shoulder, thanks. ]

The sheets aren't top quality or anything, but I grabbed what I thought you'd like for starters.
[And potion dyed it, but shhh.]
no subject
When do sheets become top quality?
no subject
[Trust her, she is all about soft beds.
She stops in front of his door and it swings open to...
Black. A very black room, with black carpets and bedding and upholstery on the furniture.]
Ta-da.
no subject
[ In some way it must have been, regardless. ]
I like it, it looks quiet.
[ Whether or not Griffon would actually allow that was a different story. But it looked like somewhere to tuck away from the world. Read. Sleep. ]
no subject
[He has so few tastes, she wanted to cater to what she could.]
Black goes with everything, so it's easy to add more. My rooms kind of a mishmash of color, right now.
no subject
[ That's his guess! ]
Let's see this mess!
no subject
[Still, she doesn't hesitate to lead them down the hall to her own. It's cute and tidy, though there's still plenty of space to fill now that she isn't sharing with anyone.]
Ta-da part two.
no subject
I like that, too.
[ Because it reminds him of her. ]
Don't be so sappy, V.
