[ today, if mizu wanders outside around the neighborhood, they will find zuriel sitting in the dirt of the garden just past the gazebo and near some flowers. they appear to be working on some sort of crochet-thing or another, but when mizu approaches and blocks their light a bit they look up. ]
Hi?
Hi?
[CUTE... mizu does not think this is cute. but i, quynn, think this is cute.
unfortunately, mizu just stands there blocking the light like an asshole. glances at the crochet-thing they're working on and raises an eyebrow.]
There was a scarf in my box. Was that your work?
[no hi back? okay.]

[ you know what, this is fine. this is behavior they seem used to, because they simply go back to work. ]
It was, yes. You don't have to keep it if you don't want to.

[ after the chaos of the mini-event has died down, ramiel is in the convenience store, scrolling through am*zon on the kiosk themselves. they'll give mizu a wave when he enters, and probably a smile too, though who can tell through the glow. ]
Did you finish decorating?

[ Gamaliel is looking at the trinkets on the boardwalk of bikini bottom (definitely bikini bottom), apparently looking at their own reflection in the mirror as they wear some accessory. Apparently, because, well. It's impossible to see it. ]
Wow, these are tacky. [ they stop checking themselves out when they spot mizu though, nodding at her in greeting but not assuming she wants a conversation... yet ]

[ hm? ]
Oh. [ they did not expect a thank you (especially from mizu), but they settle for a nod. ] You're welcome. I had to take a few liberties since I had no idea on what might fit or what you all would like, but it seemed practical enough.

[mizu's gonna swap out these sunglasses for polarized lenses one day and then it will be over for the npcs (no)
glances over ramiel's very glowy shoulder to see whatever they're looking at, though. if anything in particular.]
Neverah selected some pieces. [did mizu help? no.] They were adequate enough.

[ i'd allow it—(gets shot by the other mods)
they are looking at different kinds of fairy lights! mostly ones with varied colors in diamonds or stars or heart shapes. ]
Adequate? Does... that mean you like them or not?

Clothing will always be a more practical choice than [narrows eyes] a plastic stick.
[said like a true medieval serf who just discovered plastic for the first time but no one has taken the time to explain st*r w*rs. it's fine.
but also--]
I have questions.

Oh, yes.
[ they sound a little put off at the mention and put the glasses back. they are, in fact pretty terrible. ]
Outside hire for activities, apparently. They go by Mary.

With how violent some of you are, I'm surprised the "plastic sticks" haven't injured more people, actually.
[ but they gesture to the dirt if mizu would like to sit. ]
I may have answers. What sort of questions?

There's still time for someone to injure themselves in a very stupid way.
[wryly. absolute zero trust in these chucklefucks? but with a nod, mizu sits down on the ground seiza style.]
Our bedroom doors only lock from the inside. Is there a reason why?

[ that is something zia would do... ]
I didn't say that. [ they don't seem too bothered by the implication, though. ] I don't know them, and I don't know why they needed the extra hire, so that annoys me. On the other hand, they're not interested in sticking around any of you, so. I guess it doesn't affect things.

Give me hope for a lack of stupidity for a little while longer, please.
[ welcome to the dirt. ]
I think the idea is that it provides some security when you're most vulnerable, like when you're asleep, but nobody should be rifling through each others rooms to begin with. It isn't as if any of you know what's inside each one anyway. It's just the design of the mansion. Also the likelihood of you all losing keys if you had them is a little too high for comfort.

Studies show that comfortable surroundings make for better sleep!
[ cheerful. ]
I hope you don't mind your roommate, then.

I'm setting up realistic expectations.
[just. stares at them after "nobody should be riffling through--", like. hm. you see.]
I think this group has proven that they don't care about what they should and shouldn't be doing. [their criminals.] Is there anything stopping us from modifying our doors?
[like jerryrigging an extra lock or a fun surprise.]

It was random. So that's lucky that you're getting along!
Fair enough. [ they do not see... they choose not to see. ]
It's your room, so in theory you can do whatever you want. You may want to run it past your roommate though? Before you lock them out or anything like that.
