My darling, I've taken the liberty of unpacking our things in our suite — everything as I know you like it, of course.

Well, almost. The one thing that remains is setting out your slippers. Shall we keep our usual sides of the bed, or would you prefer a switch?

[nightsung]

What would I do without you? 🩵

Hmm... You know, I wonder if we shouldn't switch things up this visit.

The collective energy feels strange to me. I can't quite pinpoint the source. Do you feel it too?

[volkarin]

Capital idea. I'll have your slippers on the right side of the bed.

I confess, I've also sensed something strange. I wondered, at first, if it might not simply be the sheer concentration of life forces, but it's something more than that. Stay close, dear little sister, and we'll muddle through it together, hm?

[nightsung]

As we always do, dear brother.

I'll need a more robust shielding protocol than expected, I think. And nightly baths. It's been a while since I've felt so porous around a crowd.

[volkarin]

Shall I make a soak for you? Unnecessary, perhaps, but it seems we'd do best not to tempt fate.

( he's half kidding. it's the leaked sex tape of it all, sh. )

Do you do exorcisms?

[nightsung]

We do, but they tend to be a last resort after other avenues have been exhausted.

What's troubling you, Stefan?

[interpersonally]

The more I learn people don't know, the less I want to talk to anyone ever again, less anything business related.

Do me a favor and don't Google my son's name.

[nightsung]

I won't.

[ She means it. Most people would, but an intuitive woman doesn't need to scour the gossip rags for open secrets. ]

But if you want to share, I have time.

[interpersonally]

( I mean, wtf, she's never one to judge. She'll probably be amused. )

Apparently, my son wanted his own One Night in Paris without Paris Hilton but with himself. And that very private video was released. Apparently, he likes his men older, and I'm a bad father for not knowing this. And probably a bad father for not stopping it.

He doesn't need an exorcism, but fuck me if I know what he does need.

– delivery.

[in a silver velvet jewelry box is a bodychain with a crystal for each chakra point, all with 7 genuine gemstones, from emerald to ruby to sapphire and amethyst. attached is a letter that reads:

𝐽𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑒,

𝐼 ℎ𝑜𝑝𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑒𝑙𝑙. 𝐼'𝑚 𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑖𝑛 𝑖𝑡.

[ It is beautiful, of course--and likely priceless, though that matters less to Shadowheart than the yearning she feels permeating the velvet cushion as well as each gemstone.

She makes him wait a few days, though she knows it's not her kindest instinct. A holdover from different times, when he knew a different woman. ]

Would you like a picture, Henry? Or would you prefer to hunt the halls for me in person?

@mr.wright

[masticated]

I love a good hunt, darling.

[nightsung]

You haven't changed.

I'm not so easy to catch these days, you know.

[masticated]

Good thing I'm not going fishing, isn't it?

[nishtha]

Can't make the sunrise session tomorrow, make it up to you later?

[nightsung]

You never have to make anything up to me, Armand. But I will miss you.

Do you have morning plans, or will you just be sleeping off the night's pleasures?

[nishtha]

Both, with any luck. At least I'll be putting your advice to good use. Harnessing my inner goddess. 😜

[nightsung]

Is the harness spiritual, or made of leather?

[nishtha]

Oh, now you're giving me ideas, you naughty thing.

What would the goddess recommend?

[ripher]

I suppose I should be thanking you for putting a spring in Stephen's step.

[ Just testing a theory.. ]

[nightsung]

His words? Or have you seen him for yourself?

[ripher]

His words. I assume he enjoyed himself.

[nightsung]

You know, a girl might start to think you have a vested interest in your friend's pleasure.

Or perhaps you would have liked to watch?

[ripher]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I'm glad he's happy.
