Yeah. It makes it easier to sleep after a bad ritual.

[abandon_hope]

I don't know if I can join those safely. My death aura doesn't usually drain people in passing, but sleeping in the same room would be ...

[spinebuddyandme]

What if we were on opposite sides of the room?

[abandon_hope]

... If it's a large enough room, I guess. You'd need about ten feet.

[spinebuddyandme]

The war room's probably big enough, but that's still a pain... If you really wanna be a part of sleepovers, then you could try talking to Daisy or even Death about it. They might know a way to keep it from draining people.

[abandon_hope]

[ ah. that's about what he expected. He shakes his head. ]

I don't want to mess it up for you. I'll be fine.

[spinebuddyandme]

You wouldn't be messing anything up.

[abandon_hope]

Because I'll stay outside the door, yeah.

[spinebuddyandme]

Do you really want to stay outside the door?

[abandon_hope]

[ a lil wince. of course he wants soft team cuddle time. ]

Do we even have a sleepover coming up?

[spinebuddyandme]

We don't have specific plans or anything, but it's pretty common any time there's a bad ritual. And those are usually once or twice a week.

[abandon_hope]

[ Once or twice a week ... Kevin looks down at his hands. ]

I guess I need to talk to Death anyway.

[spinebuddyandme]

[ Trying not to be too obvious about perking up ]

I've had good luck sending her letters. If you leave one by the fountain with one of the ghost sheep guarding it, it'll find it's way to her.

[abandon_hope]

[ huh. perking up to have a sleepover with a Hades kid?? that's weird. ]

... I'll try then. Won't hurt anything.

[spinebuddyandme]

Exactly. Hopefully she can help you out.

[abandon_hope]

[ a small nod. ]

In - uh - the meantime - my bedroom looks comfortable.

[spinebuddyandme]

Oh, you checked it out already? I'm glad it passes inspection. I was kinda worried it'd turn up with one of those little basement windows a lot of places have.

Um, sleeping situations aside, how have you been settling in? I know Lily's been fine, but how's it been with the other flocks? Especially after that ritual.

[abandon_hope]

No windows at all.

[ which HE is pleased by anyway. His own lil room! ]

... The other flocks have been friendly too. It's kind of weird, actually.

[spinebuddyandme]

Because they aren't getting weirded out by the "son of Hades" thing?

[abandon_hope]

Yeah. It's good, but also I don't know what to do with that.

[spinebuddyandme]

Well...do you know what you want from them? Once you know that, it'll be easier to figure out what to do.

[abandon_hope]

To ... make ... friends, I guess.

[spinebuddyandme]

Sounds like you should try being nice back to them.

[abandon_hope]

... I'm not being mean.

[spinebuddyandme]

I — sorry. I don't think you are either. I just meant to be encouraging.
