Who: Psiioniic and others
When: throughout the week
Where: Coral Corral 5 and Feferi's home
Style: Assorted
Status: Closed-ish, open to people that have a reason to be at the house.

[ It's good to be out of the Larmline Apartments. No bombs, no stabbings, no random shocking violence to worry about out in the Coral Corral neighborhood as far as Psiioniic knows.

So it's about time they started getting things settled in finally.

Painting, gardening, cleaning up-- they're all valid places to catch the creepy old troll at work meticulously performing all these tasks.

Or, alternately, talking to bees, watching tv, or cooking. Hey, being a free troll has its perks. ]

[ It's about two a.m. when he sends out a text after a long night of fish network reruns: ]

Sollux Captor, II wiish two acquiire your company for a periiod of tiime.
II am located at Coral Corral, Hiive 5.
Please do not miistake iit for a priioriity.
II rarely leave thiis locatiion.

[ They were supposed to bond over their mutual interest in apiculture, after all. Sending messages at theoretically weird times isn't that odd of a thing to be doing. ]

[thekidsare0kay]

0n my way.

[And not that long after that, Sollux lands in the back yard of the right apartment, looking around for any sign of a fellow mutant yellowblood and some bees]

[p2iioniicii2t]

You were consciious?
Most of our kiind have adapted two diiurnal sleep patterns.

[ Wait, why is he texting? He should probably go ahead and go outside. On the back patio, there are a variety of supplies to build a series of hives from scratch.

And so he floats out back, not immediately saying anything because what is social appropriateness. ]

[thekidsare0kay]

[Sollux sees the text, but before he can reply he sees Psiioniic coming outside, so he puts his SFC away and trots towards him]

I've always had a turned around thchedule. I thtayed up late into the day before, now it'th night. What about you? Why are you up tho late?

[p2iioniicii2t]

I do not enjoy sleep. It was not a program I had frequent access to.

[ What's that? The Psiioniic giving a weird, socially awkward answer? Say it isn't so. ]

With the existence of the coral, it is not difficult to avoid it.

Closed to Feferi

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ He owes an Heirress a date to cook up some snack cakes for another specimen of royal blood, so that's why he's going to be a good citizen of the Empire and send off a quick message rather than just showing up: ]

Your Hiighness, may II now come two your hiive now two assiist iin preparatiions of cake??

[ex_fintastic398]

[ Feferi is outside in the backyard when her SFC goes off, and she quickly wipes the dirt from her hands on her knees to answer it. ]

O)(! )(ello!
Yes, t)(at's perc)(fect! Come over w)(enever you want.

[p2iioniicii2t]

II shall be on my way shortly.

[ And then, a moment later, as it occurs to him to be a good servant to the de-facto Empress. ]

IIs there anythiing that you may requiire?
Personal goods or other objects that II may briing wiith me beyond the iitems for the project?
II apologiize for not askiing thiis iimmediiately.

[ex_fintastic398]

Nope! I t)(ink I )(ave everyfin we need.
Unless you )(ave any ideas.

[withoutasign]

[Yes, Signless likes this new hive too. It's bigger than the last one, with a backyard for Psii's bees and a garden for the flowers they're both growing for said bees, and more bedrooms for the guests that randomly pop up from time to time.]

[And the living room has a bigger TV. Which means Vatheon Shore is even bigger and more intense.]

[Signless whistles as he heads into the living room, juggling a bowl of popcorn and some drinks.]

Are you ready?

[p2iioniicii2t]

Tonight has two new episodes.

[ Psii is buried under obnoxiously red and blue blankets on the couch, peering over the arm of it to watch. On top of obtaining a larger television, the couch is a bit roomier as well. All the better for piling with things and also Signless. ]

To not be ready would be a punishable offense.

[ He should probably just reach out with his mind and... there we go, he snags the majority of what Signless is carrying to neatly set it all down on the coffee table. ]

[withoutasign]

Thanks!

[Relieved of his burdens, Signless sails onto the couch, landing right next to Psii and burrowing under the blankets with him. It's really not that cold in the house, but it's still fun to pile blankets up and hide underneath them. He wiggles around a bit, getting close to Psii and slinging an arm around his shoulders.]

[As horrifying as it was when Psii knocked his teeth out, he's been a lot more talkative since, and Signless thinks that's wonderful.]

Five minutes and counting!

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ Always careful of his multitude of thin yet distinctly pointy horns, Psii scoots in close and rests his head against Signless' chest. He's not about to take his dearest friend's eye out or anything. By now, he has this down to a very specific science to be as comfortable as possible and as unlikely to cause grievous injury, as well. ]

I am unsure about the content of today's program.

[ He sounds somewhat solemn now. This requires appropriate seriousness. ]

I do not believe I would enjoy it if the Situocean returned to private schoolfeeding.

[Even when they moved out of the apartments, Aradia still decided to keep up one thing: regular visits. Even if it proved to be a little bit more of a walk, she was still happy to go visit her troll'dad's.

Today was no different as she hopped the fence into the backyard. Unfortunately, there was a bit of a distraction. She always gets a little bit distracted by the bees. Maybe it was the melodic humming that she could hear from their hives and it reminded her of something, perhaps a memory of the past.

Who knows, I mean really. She's distracted by bees.]

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ Getting distracted by bees, is it? Welcome to the Psiioniic's life.

Thankfully, he's in that very same backyard being distracted just the same. He peeks around his hive, blinking owlishly at her. ]

Aradia Megido. Welcome.

[0_0]

[Oh good, she's glad that he's here. Just the troll she wanted to see! She pops to attention, giving him a wave.]

Hi! I forgot how distracting bees can be. I wanted to see how you were doing after everything happened.

[p2iioniicii2t]

I am very functional, Aradia Megido. Are you functional as well?

[ He's trying to smile, just a little. It's always nice to see her. ]

[o8liter8]

[ Mindfang is never one to turn down free food, and she's started spending an absurd amount of time over at Coral Corral 5 lately, between the move and...free food, she'd tell anyone else. Helps that she isn't going over to Darkleer's now.

She drapes herself on Psii as he works at the stove. He is awfully nice and tall, and he never seems to mind. ]

What're you making?

[p2iioniicii2t]

It is called linguine. It is a form of unleavened wheat dough.

[ He speaks very softly, clearly unperturbed but the fact that she hung over him. Her presence was comforting and she makes him feel distinctly secure. Supported by his psionics as he is while he cooks the delicate pasta, there's little worry about being off balance.

He leans his head towards her. ]

With pea pesto, it is a food based primarily in peas and pine nuts.

[ It's all very matter of fact, really, like he's reciting something. ]

[o8liter8]

[ It's a good thing he's unperturbed because she finds him very, very comfortable. She snuggles in a bit, adjusting to get more comfortable. ]

Rabbit food. You should cook fish sometime, it's not like there's any shortage of it around here. Actually I should take you fishing on the island sometime. So, it taste good?

[ She might bitch about vegetarian meals, but she's quite used to them after being close to Darkleer for her whole childhood. ]

[p2iioniicii2t]

Hopbeasts lack cognitive development to create linguine.

[ No, he's not even catching that she wasn't being literal. Sometimes he has those days, and this is definitely one of them.

Though he's keeping himself upright with his psionics, there's a peculiar relaxation to him as he absently not-quite-nuzzles his head against hers. She is always in his space, and he has found it very comforting. ]

If what I am preparing is not to your taste, I will prepare another meal.

THIS IS ONLY LIKE A WEEK OLD, I CAN STILL TAG THIS.

[so it took Gamzee a day or two after Psii and Signless and the whole gang had moved in to remember that he kinda sorta in a vague Gamzee-ish way had promised to back them some nice fresh pie. Okay, so they hadn't moved into their neighbourhood, but moving in still deserved pie. Everything deserves pie.

So it is to that end that he eventually shows up to the house at his own, comfortable pace, carrying a still slightly steaming pie of unknown content. A knock on the door and he is happy to wait for it to open. Now. Dare you accept his mystery pie of mysteriousness?

No seriously, what is in that thing?]

[p2iioniicii2t]

[ The door swings open even before Psii comes around the corner.

And for a second there, he only registers the distinct style of horn. He locks up, not unlike a fainting goat, but at least he was supporting himself with his psionics so he doesn't up and crash to the ground.

And then the rest of Gamzee registers and he can do things like move and breathe again. ]

Welcome to this hive, Gamzee Makara.

[ Wait, too formal. They were ninjas, right? He is fairly sure that is the case. He tries again. ]

Hello.

[420]

Heeeey, my brother. What's the haps?

[Gamzee doesn't even notice the fainting goat like reaction. Which is odd cause he was a fainting goat satyr once. You'd think he'd at least recognize him. But Psii's craft psi-work is throwing him off.]

[p2iioniicii2t]

I am presently unengaged in action.

[ In short, he'd spent the past half hour or so staring blankly at a wall for no apparent reason. That wasn't weird or anything, of course. ]

You are welcome to this hive as if it is your own, hi-

[ No, no, he's going to not make that error. ]

You are welcome to this hive as if it is your own, Gamzee.

[ Yes, he really did just repeat the entire sentence as if it never happened. ]
