[She will attach a selfie, for honesty's sake, and also to show off, let's be real.]

[Anyone coming to visit Lup will find the magical pocket-di-mansion set up much the same as it was few months prior, though the basement will come with some tweaks at Era's request. It's time for NERD BRUNCH!]

Comments

[necromanswers]

Sure did.

[Lup offers her hand out to Pyra so she can look at the nail job. Nothing too fancy, but definitely done by a practiced hand. She glances over her shoulder as Honerva arrives.]

Good, let 'em tire themselves out. Maybe they'll come for cuddles later, we can have a big old pile of lazy.

[iustaegis]

[ It seems they’ve both indulged in the spa together for the day. She’s happy for them, as the two deserve a time dedicated to self care. She’s especially glad to see Honerva so relaxed after the previous month of unwelcome memories, and her entrance earns the woman an additional smile.

Pyra, meanwhile, is dressed in her usual attire, having had no spas.

She moves over for Honerva to take a seat with them upon the couch. Cozy up! ] Erm... you are speaking of your cats?

[shroudedsecrets]

[ Spa care is definitely a must, when Lup has the mansion about. It's the one that feels safest to fully indulge in, at least during times when guests are least likely to wander in. Her hair's freshly washed, mostly dry and ready to be played with.

She settles on the couch, drawing her legs up as well. ]

Indeed. It happens that there is a... purrfect room here for them to play in, you may have glimpsed it before. It's something of a treat.

[necromanswers]

[Lup snorts inelegantly at the pun, glancing off to the corner of the area, where an open doorway leads to one of the side rooms.]

Yeah, there's a whole pile of cat swag over in Cap'nport's old office. Should keep them out of our hair until Ditto wears Kova out.

[iustaegis]

[ Pyra looks in the direction Lup indicates, then back to the two women. ]

They’re very independent, aren’t they? I don’t think I’ve seen them cause any sort of mess or trouble before.

[shroudedsecrets]

They're... well behaved. [ Ditto isn't exactly a normal cat but she leaves that explanation to Lup. ] Kova sometimes has found himself with trouble, but usually due to... circumstances beyond him.

[ Like being faced with neglect, or some of the odd side effects of this world, or possessiveness if he thinks there's a threat to his people. ]

[necromanswers]

[Yeah speaking of Ditto-]

Mine's a fae, not a real cat. Mostly I let him run wild, but as my familiar he'll do whatever I tell him to. Trouble happens sometimes, but when he's on the clock he knows to behave.

[iustaegis]

[ Their statements about their cats might as well describe the two women themselves. Finding something amusing about this, she giggles into her hand politely. ]

They're good, sweet felines. I'm glad they're here with the both of you.

[shroudedsecrets]

Indeed. They are family.

[ It's a good thing to be glad for, since if the circumstances weren't as they were, Honerva wouldn't have him at all, and she well knows that. ]

[necromanswers]

[Funny how familiars work.]

Well, enough sap! We're here to gossip. Or at least pretend to be productive, while we gossip. Ladies, anything to drink? I can have one of the spectrals get the booze again. And food, too. Kitchen's fully loaded still.

[iustaegis]

I'll have whatever it is you are drinking, Lup. [ The woman has excellent taste, after all! Anything she's drinking is bound to be delicious.

She tilts her head, curious. ] Aaand.... is that why you called me here? To gossip? [ The two seem to have been here from the start, enjoying their spa day. Pyra is only catching the tail end of it, it seems. Is there something she had wanted to share with her, she wonders. ]

[shroudedsecrets]

I would not mind more fruit slices and whatever drink might suit them.

[ Honerva of course was no expert in this casual business with others, though she did notice, when it seemed harder for Pyra to determine such things, with her way of skirting either too light or too purpose focused unless something happened to tilt the scales. She glances to her at her query. ]

Unless you have another way you would wish to spend the time. You may style my hair, if you would like.

[necromanswers]

I invited you because in theory I think we're all friends here, yeah? Accurate? Dumbass. Friends hang out sometimes, there doesn't have to be a reason. I'd call your butt over just to paint your nails.

[She gestures with a hand, and one of the spectral servants floats off towards the kitchen to retrieve their requests.]

[iustaegis]

[ She can't help but giggle at Lup's candid answer, and she nods at Honerva. Sure, sure, she'll braid her hair. Come closer! ]

It's been a while, hasn't it, since I've visited... [ Perhaps only by a month or so. ]

It's always so home in this, ah, pocket dimension of yours...!

[shroudedsecrets]

[ Honerva obliges, shifting closer. ]

Has it been so long?

[ Time is fake. Then again, the most recently she had seen Pyra was since their shared memory incident... and they'd taken a much longer break from their projects. ]

[necromanswers]

We could probably make it a more regular occurrence, but I'm lousy at sticking to a schedule. Haven't managed it since uni.

[And that was over a hundred years ago, so good luck trying to manage it now.]

Still, you're welcome to come by whenever you like.

[iustaegis]

[ She begins braiding Honerva's hair, looking down towards Honerva, then to Lup. ]

I think I'll take that offer. I've missed the both of you!

[shroudedsecrets]

It is nice to simply spend the time, without having it obligated toward our projects or other related... issues.

[ Like dealing with aftermaths or focusing on flowers. ]

We don't hear so much about how else you spend your time.

[necromanswers]

Well, besides that one thing.

[Lup waggles her eyebrows. She hasn't heard otherwise, so she's just gonna assume Pyra's still as hopelessly smitten as before.]

[iustaegis]

[ Issues is one thing, but Lup's eyebrow waggle earns her a small giggle as she threads her fingers through Honerva's hair, parting it into three sections. ]

O-oh.... Me? I've just been a little busy, that's all. [ Some minor projects, here and there. ] And that thing isn't a thing, he's a person! Noctis! [ Yup, still hopeless and helpless over here. ]

[shroudedsecrets]

[ The most they'd talked about her relationship was Pyra questioning Honerva's own limited knowledge of him. ]

Noctis must keep you very busy then.

[necromanswers]

I'll bet he does.

[Lup does not even try or pretend to keep a straight face there.

Wait. Hang on. She smacks her hands down on the couch, abruptly sitting up.]

Hey, for real, what the fuck is it with the Lucians!?

[iustaegis]

[ Eyeing her... ]

Erm, what?

[shroudedsecrets]

... I think she means to say there is a certain way about most of them, that... draws attention.

[ Which isn't really it either but do you really expect Honerva to know how to explain that Lucians are humans that just seem to inexplicably have an it factor? ]

[necromanswers]

What she means to say is that they're hot and DTF more often than not and I wanna know what's up.

[SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT]

It's unfair! Too many good genes!
