❝ Little Levi isn't so little if you give him the right kind of attention~ ❞

[nouvomond]

"You're not supposed to be out of bed." Ramge's gentle voice is quiet as ever, and while he's trying to sound stern, the pursed lips and wide eyes only make him come across as pouty. In his hands, a bowl of soup wafts steam into his face. Sia, previously atop his shoulder, gives a little huff and drops down, winding out of the crack in the door- likely back to Ramge's own room. After setting the bowl down on one of the side tables, he moves toward Rachel, hands on the blond's arms as he gently pushes him back toward his mussed blankets. "You're still sick — !"

❝ Being sick isn't an excuse to lie down all day, is it?. ❞

That was exactly when someone should be spending most of their time in bed. But Rachel, ever the busybody, refused to stay idle for too long most of the time. That was exaxtly how he ended up this way in the first place. Fighting, fighting and killimg, all for Ramge's sake until his body gave out at the end of his blind rampage.

And now he finally had him back. They were finally together again. The state of his body and overall health hardly mattered in that moment.

❝ It's been so long since you and I got to just... Be around each other without having to worry about anything. You can't expect me to just spend that precious time staring at the ceiling all day. ❞

Xingyun drops in with snacks for Khasar but also... a little tank with yet another ocean snail in it. This one is relatively tiny, with a bright violet shell- and it's floating near the surface of the orb-shaped tank. "I brought you a friend~!"

KHASAR WAS QUICK TO wag his tail the moment Xingyun appeared, excited for both his appearance, and of course, the treats that were brought for him. He wasted no time gluing himself to the Vidyadhara’s side as was often the case when he visited. Jianyu scoffed, quietly amused by it all, though he didn’t say anything to the hound’s behavior. Even if he had planned to, his attention was very much grasped by that rather adorable snail floating without a care in the world in the tank the dragon held. Leaning closer, there was an almost childish gleam within those eyes; wonder temporarily shifting his expression from serious to something that much softer. ❝Is this from one of the ships?❞ he asked, fascinated sometimes that life was still able to thrive on space-faring vessels as if their habitat never changed. Snails might not have been the most incredible of creatures in this vast universe, but to Jianyu, they would always be what interested him the most.

That cute shell and eyes…

How could anyone say that this was uninteresting? Realizing that he might have been…a bit too enthused, he leaned back and cleared his throat. ❝So, care to tell me what this little guy’s called?❞ He had to collect some semblance of composure! He had a reputation to uphold, after all.

"O-zy-niiiii--!" Rie's voice is loud as she peeks in, a small basket held over her head. "I made you some father's day treats, but then I remembered Lanchan's also a dad technically so she's coming by and sharing with you, okay?" At this, Rie's eyebrows give a smug little waggle as she deposits the basket onto the nearest table, ready to bounce back out of the room. "Who knows, maybe next year Lanchan will get to celebrate mother's day too!" Aaaand off she goes, giggling- what a menace. Truly the baby sister of all time —

OZYMANDIAS GLANCED UP FROM the book he had been reading, brows rising slightly with curiosity. ❝And to what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?❞ His gaze shifted to the basket in her hands, further question upon the tip of his tongue. He didn’t have a chance to ask it, although such wouldn’t have mattered anyway when the answer came near instantly. Father’s Day… He had forgotten that there was a holiday for that, but that was primarily because it was one that was so easily forgotten for him. Holidays like Christmas or Halloween tended to take most of his attention, and so the smaller ones tended to easily slip on by. Closing his book with a small thump, he placed it to the side. So, what little goodies did she bring him? Fingers were already slipping into the basket when he paused. Lanchan? It took a bit longer than it should have for him to realize just who she was talking about.

Lanchan. How endearing.

He wondered if she casually called Arturia this in person, knowing her. There was something altogether amusing about that particular thought. ❝I suppose I better get refreshments ready, then.❞ Hmm…did he still have that bottle from the Golden King or had he already emptied it? Ozymandias supposed he would have to… That thought trailed off, or more or less, screeched to a halt. Wait – what? Blinking a couple of times in quick succession, he lifted his head with just enough time to see Rie flee the room, off to do…whatever it was she was going to do for the rest of the day. The whole time he stared at where she had been moment’s prior, all he could find himself saying in that empty room was one thing.

❝…What did that mean?❞

3-5 FACTS ABOUT MY MUSES

He's a big animal lover. It's not just his ratties, or cute animals like rabbits or cats, he's also fond of critters that would make most people screech, like bugs and reptiles.

He's extremely quiet when he moves around. Has 100% given some of his dormmates a mini heart attack by sneaking up on them. Doesn't do it on purpose, he's just like that naturally.

His native language is Spanish (or the TWST equivalent of it). He doesn't speak it often at school, but if you're close to him, you might be given a pet name in his native language.

His favorite mediums of art are pencils, charcoal and watercolors.

He's very flexible due to his habit of looking for secret passageways.

The name of her male disguise, Noah Owens, is supposed to be a pun on "no one knows".

Headstrong and tough-as-nails. Rarely lets other know she's afraid (unless you're one of the few people she trusts).

She grew up with two older brothers. She's much closer to the younger one (10 years her senior), while her relationship with her oldest brother (16 years her senior) is more tense.

When she first arrived in Twisted Wonderland, her memories are quite fuzzy, and she'd gradually regain them with each Overblot. (This is inspired by Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth)

Was it normal for him to be out in the city this late in the evening? Honestly, yeah. Whether it be for a casual outing or one of his more... private affairs. If he was home before the moon was hanging high in the air, then something had clearly gone very, very wrong. In this case, he finally found some time to hit the gym and decided to use up as much of his time there as possible. Which meant staying in there right up until closing hours.

To say he was a bit of a mess would be an understatement. Even after taking a quick little shower before leaving, his hair was a mess and his breathing was slightly ragged. Like a dog who'd just gotten through playing out in the rain.

❝ If you keep staring you're liable to burn a hole right through me. Am I that scary? ❞

Then he take snotice of something. Or rather, someone. He'd gotten used to being looked at and having people assume the worst. After all, most people who ran into someone who looked like him this late out tended to assume the worst.

❝ Fifteen minutes. ❞

The first two words that left his lips upon seeing her were tinged with exasperation. Not quite annoyance, but close to it. Sylus' arms were crossed over his broad chest, his piercing gaze cast slightly downwards to meet the gaze of the person he'd spent only a few minutes waiting for to arrive. Though he made it sound as though those few minutes were equivalent to an eternity.

❝ Patience might be something of a virtue of mine, but only insofar as planning and waiting for an adversary to make a mistake. Not when it comes to something I've been anticipating. ❞

Ah, so that was what it was. He'd been eager to see her again. He wouldn't have said it outright, but the meaning behind those words were clear enough. To think that he of all people would be so needy that just a quarter of an hour of waiting would make him so... huffy.
