All right. I will meet you out front come evening, then; let’s say an hour after sunset?

[tfw you’ve been living like three months without clocks]
endsjustified: (surmount.)

[fast forward through the day to the agreed-upon time; Charon does meet him out front of Lily barn, with a formal little bow as he approaches.]

Thank you for coming.
endsjustified: (priorities.)

Miss Daisy requested it, yes. She wanted me to…branch out, I think? It felt like something of a warning.

[offers a hand, as thought to shake, but clarifies]

Apologies—I’ve lifted some of the restrictions, but you’ll still need to be touching me briefly to enter our meadow and barn.
endsjustified: (priorities.)

[shakes his hand once anyway, firm, and then leads him towards the barn; they can take the way through there into the kitchen]

My thanks for the understanding.

As for miss Daisy, it was something like…needing the pasture to be standing together, I suppose? We do keep a little more to ourselves these days, now that we’re down to three members. Perhaps she was concerned we’d end up isolating ourselves.

[the barn itself seems ordinary enough; Lily never got a crazy amount of upgrades so it's comfortable and homey, but not super fancy. Charon lets go after the requisite ten seconds. it smells delicious as they step down the stairs toward the underground kitchen]

Mm--yes. Cepheus and Kevin are home now; it cannot be called ideal, but at least they are free of this place's particular vagaries.
endsjustified: (you've got to want it.)

[personal profile] endsjustified 2024-08-22 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Mm. Thank you for the sentiment. I will miss those boys.

[it’s like…pretty open basic common room, a couple of side rooms that look like a reading room and ??? some sort of planning room? and then some narrow stairs up to a row of what must be bedrooms. everything looks solid, they didn’t go crazy on furnishing it

the way down might be more interesting, since it just deadass gets into an underground tunnel to reach the kitchen. the kitchen might actually be the biggest fanciest part, but that’s also because it’s for two teams, if the Bluebell colours on half of it are any indication]
endsjustified: (firing the moment.)

Mm. We quested for it together, so it's linked to both our barns. We still can't enter each others' actual homes without permission, though.

[there's a two person spread at the table! man's indeed been busy cooking]
endsjustified: (epistrophe.)

It is, if you don’t mind it getting a little rowdy at times.

And, thank you. I hope it’s to your taste.

[there is lemon garlic roast pork, some kind of salad, a rough sort of cornbread, fresh peaches and plums, juice or water depending what he wants to drink, etc. also a jug or two of their best plum alcohol]

Same thing for years—?
endsjustified: (sir; that is a high school student.)

[personal profile] endsjustified 2024-08-27 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. That does make sense.

[he'll serve, but let Nue pour his own drink to taste]

Hopefully it's relatively in the past by now--? I'd hate to think someone was returning from here straight back to a jail cell.
endsjustified: (that's a whole truck.)

Your Mr. Hannya might assist, I imagine.

Even overhearing how he talks about you, that much was clear. I just wasn't sure if you were even in the same locale, at home, for him to do so.
