[The reply probably comes sometime in the afternoon because he sure spent like half the night trying to convince Absinthe to endaemonate him, possibly successfully. Don't worry about it.]

Accomplice: Quite well!
Accomplice: What of yourself? I've been visiting Hades and Lily, but I know you have a lot to deal with right now.

Cosmo: No more than usual. You needn't avoid me.

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

Accomplice: Aww.
Accomplice: To be fair, I was trying to find a suitable gift for you, but never quite did. And the one thing I have thought of might be a little too lighthearted in the circumstances.
Accomplice: I can come by later today, if that's what you would like? :)

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

Cosmo: The thought alone is appreciated.
Cosmo: If you are not busy, certainly.

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

Accomplice: Yesterday was quite busy, but I'm blissfully free today!

[Give him like. Ten minutes to get dressed maybe before he comes a-knockin' on BiT door.]

Re: 349idk

[He'll be there to open it! And step aside to let him in.]

I am beginning to think I should invest in high heels.

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

That might be a waste because that's what I'm planning to do, too.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

What in the world do you need to be taller for?

[He will lead him in. There's already tea and sconesv set out.]

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

I just look good in heels!

[Ooh, fancy. He sits down for the ~teatime~.]

My, you're always a very gracious host.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

I suppose you likely do.

[He sits across from him, pouring for them both.]

Manners are ever important. And are you not worth the effort, after all?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[He smiles, taking a cup.]

You know, that's really sweet of you to say. How are you all holding up?

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

It is simply the truth

Well enough I suppose. Or as well aa might be expected in some cases.

And yourself?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[He stares into the cup for a while, clearly thinking on his answer.]

...Well. I'll admit that what Hades said and the implications of it weigh on me quite a bit. And... C came around yesterday. I got the feeling something's going on.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

... One at a time then. What did C have to say?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

He wanted to commission us for a bomb... particularly to make a copy of one, I believe. I don't know if you've spoken to him much, but he's quite hard to get a straight answer from... and so is Jason, who agreed to help him. But what I did get is that it's somehow connected to the plan of ending the Production.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

Goodness.

[He sighs.]

What a dilemma. How do you feel about it?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[He shrugs.]

I admit, I'm not quite up to date on what everyone's doing in connection with the Production, Heaven and Hell. But I trust Jason's decisions here, so... I suppose we shall see. As for C himself... He looks to be an idealist of sorts. Not a bad person, but rather too chaotic.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

Well, whatever mess they make is no concern of mine as long as they do not succeed.

Of more importance is how you are feeling.

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[There's a noncommittal shrug at that first part. Maybe it's just fuckin around, maybe not. Who knows!]

Trying to distract myself, mainly. Lily and Alexander need my attention rather more right now. I've spoken of my suspicions and fears with some of my friends, so I am not entirely without support, nor do I want to panic preemptively. So I am simply keeping busy until Alexander is recovered enough that we can speak of all this. D.Va is teaching me to drive, I've bought a car, we had a meeting with Absinthe in dreams last night, I still have projects to work on. There is plenty to take my mind off things, but I won't deny that it worries me still.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

[He takes a scone and slathers jam on it as Hythlodaeus talks.]

Tell me, are these distractions helping?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[He tips his head, sipping the tea for now.]

So far, yes. It's better than dwelling on it. But I can't guess how long they will keep helping.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

This is there anything I might do in the interim?

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[Hmmmm... He drums his fingers on the side of the cup.]

I... don't know. At the moment it's perhaps the uncertainty that weighs on me, but if what I suspect is indeed true it would be... quite a lot to contend with. I would possibly barricade myself in the lab again, or...

[He shrugs.]

...do something more destructive, perhaps. I won't deny I've been feeling more--restless, as it were.

Re: 349idk

[temperedinpride]

[Do you see why we don't tell you things buddy.]

Would you like to speak with me on the topic, or wait until Alexander has recovered to speak with him? Either way I an sure the other of us will be available for any followup you have.

Re: 349idk

[weenwoon]

[ur one to talk mr healthy coping through genocide and brainwashing

Levity regards him for a few long moments, thinking on the offer.]

...I wonder. Ideally, I would want to speak with you both. Even if you were to tell me right now, I still come to see Alexander every other day. He would obviously notice that I'm affected by this, and that would just force him into a conversation on the topic when he's not yet ready. So I would prefer to wait, I believe. Like I said, I have support from other sources, so I am not in danger of crumbling anytime soon.
