[shamelessly snooping while he talks to other Lilies]

[ He is pocketing "fuck up Minuet" bullets custom made by Charon and Wolfwood's (rip) gun and also dragging Scarabanke off at some point to fish around in their ??headspace??

Normal stuff

At some point though: ]

--You're awake.

It's a recent change. I'd get bored if I slept for too long.

[tugs on his arm to pull him over to the war room]

[ Followwwsss . . . ]

Do you feel any better?

I feel more rested. But I also feel like I missed a lot.

[there's a wine cooler in the corner of the room somewhere; he starts pulling out bottles of wine and just handing them to Minuet]

[ Takes it pure on reflex and-- oh my god ]

Have you always had booze in here?

[ y'all have been HOLDING OUT ON HIM???? ]

These ones are pretty recent. We got a decent amount of rice so I tried making rice wine, but it has to sit for a few days before it's good to drink. They should be ready now.

Ohhhh, something new! Surely one can only drink so much fruit wine.

Variety is important! Isn't it boring to just drink the same flavored wine over and over again? It's part of your present, so tell me if you like it.

Part of m--

[ DEER IN HEADLIGHTS ]

LETHE!! This is too many things!!

Then I guess you have no choice but to share with your friends. I've given you a difficult task, but I'm sure you can rise to the challenge.

[ HELP ]

You- this--

It's a lot of work! You didn't have to-- . . .

Oh, come on. It's not that much work. It's a nice way to pass the time, and a nice gift to give you, so why wouldn't I do it? It's polite to accept the gifts you're given without protest.

[ Looking down at the bottle in his hands. Lethe didn't get to see him ugly cry the day before, but he does look close to doing so again. ]

... Thank you.

[he will do him the dignity of not intentionally trying to make him cry in their barn]

You're welcome. Am I allowed to say happy birthday?

[ ... Nods... ]

[his voice is soft, and full of sincerity.]

Happy Birthday, Minuet. It's good to have you with us for another year.

[ NOPE HE DOES ACTUALLY CRY AT THAT ONE ]

[gives him a handkerchief. he can't tease him for that when he reacted the same way]

Thanks...

[ Blows his nose into it noisily. Entire being soggy. ]

You 'n Charon and the kids-- have to plant something in it with me, sometime.

...Only if you're sure. What kind of plants do you want?

... I like to re-plant the weeds we pull out of the gardens. They're plants too, y'know? They're just trying to live, like everything else.

So... maybe that. They can have their own little garden on my balcony.

I didn't even know you were keeping them! Well, that's even easier to manage. We won't have to grow them from seeds. They grow fast though, so make sure they get enough nutrients once we plant them all.

[ Wipes the last of the years ]

Will you teach me? I'm still learning all these things.

[nods]

I'm average at gardening, but I can show you what I know.
