[inside the planetarium, sloth will be floating as if they're sitting. the hood and horn is back, so they must be looking up at the stars. but then they turn to mineo.]
[true to their word, when mineo enters the kitchen he will find that greed is in the kitchen, arms folded over their chest and leaning against the counter. their hood's up, the purple scales emblem stitched into the side just like the other uniforms.]
Mr. Enomoto. I'll admit I'm curious who told you such a thing.
[envy is waiting at the tea room! his hood is off, because, well. there's no point hiding it now, is there? so whenever mineo arrives, multiple pairs of eyes blink at him before envy turns his head to look at him properly, giving him a nervous wave.]
Um- hi!
[after a slight pause:]
For the record, you're still on the list. Just not, uh, the shorter list, Lust didn't leave me a lot of room on that one.
[instead of hovering stupidly over the flowers in the middle platform this time, sloth is sitting(?) on one of the benches. well, they're floating in a sitting position. this counts.]
Mineo! Come right on in!
[this isn't even their place to be welcoming people in.]
[mineo is here!! i'm going to be honest he probably has a glass from the kitchen that's filled with water, and the rose that ashiya douman gave him from their cyoa in it.]
Hi - sorry this is kind of our first time chatting.
[aside from trial stuff....]
But Molly told me this is yours. I got it from Ashiya-san before...
[it takes some time because sloth is a slow and lazy f(ucker)loater, but here they come drifting into the dog park with hood down.
a weird lil grey dog with an even weirder middle part poofs into existence by sloth's feet, and sloth stops to "kneel" in the air to pet it with a laugh. sloth's hands have a dark grey color to them which stretch toward the wrists. and, actually, so does his feet? the long, cloudy hair now looks like churning storm clouds; the horn sticking through the front is longer and sharper, curving back.
he gives mineo a wave while the dog stands and looks grumpy.]
Mineo! Funny that I'm the one who made it this time!
Good news!! About your head Aaaaaand saying the wrong thing when you were already upset Can we meet in person even if it's short? Apologizing over text just doesn't sit right with me Feels too hollow
Uhhhh okay question first In your floor can you confirm or deny that the Observing Room has nothing to do with you? We know the Research Room doesn't but just for thoroughness
Takeru wants to have a meeting tomorrow so we can cover stuff Especially since the dead messages said that we should be sharing as much as we can And investigating more!
Sloth-san, hey! Oh - before I get into just general discussion stuff with you, can I ask a question real quick? I need to have some info on hand before Takeru hosts another meeting and he'll beat me up if I'm not prepared.
[mineo: let's meet somewhere private! (like the library, or the chapel, or hell even the planetarium.
sloth: :D the woods!!
luckily, sloth meets mineo at the very entrance of the woods, just inside the door of the room. he's floating in place, and reaches out to offer mineo his hand. as he does, he actually drops down to the ground on his feet.]
[hand holding works for him!! mineo will take sloth's hand and offer a little bit of a laugh and hesitate - the feelings of seriousness and nervousness intermingle just a bit]
I do too... but I don't know if this is necessarily good news?
[a beat]
I think - well, no. I know I'm gonna deal with Childe tonight, Sloth-san. I just wanted to let you know.
[after the last text, greed stops replying but he can be found walking with maus on a path in the dog park. his strides are slow enough that mineo can catch up, but quick enough maus can continue moving.]
[mineo is going to catch up and then!! i'm going to be honest he's still walking in a type of side shuffle but he immediately angles himself toward greed and just bows so deeply it's embarrassing.
as he walks.]
Greed-san...
I'm sorry for the mess I made! I'm sorry we all had to sit through trial yesterday! I'm sorry that I couldn't come clean sooner, and I'm sorry that I don't know if we got any closer to your ideal of justice at all....!!
I take responsibility, and I understand if you're furious with me!
[the emotions are: unbearably earnest, unfortunately. the sincerity, it's blinding. it radiates. but mostly it really does just cut through the feelings of guilt and while he's not quite as stormy as he was yesterday, there's definitely sentiments of discomfort and unease]
[well, at least he isn't sprawled out like he's getting ready to become one with the earth this time. he's managed to be upright in a float an inch or so off the ground.
he waves at mineo, and then bring his arm down to scratch his other one with his fingers.]
[oh good for sloth - there's a feeling of relief at that, honestly, like he's really glad to see him upright again?? mineo wanders closer then, and... well. there's still some feelings of discomfort and guilt lingering, there is also a huge sense of gratitude]
... yeah. A no vote.
I almost can't believe it, but I'm here and all...

ok! the star room! um, planetarium!

[he already looks thrown off at that. who the fuck is out here respecting him.]
Uh - Just Enomoto's fine... But Sloth-san did. They said you were a fan of justice when I asked about what was in the FAQ.

this time, sloth comes floating on into wherever mineo currently is at. (unless mineo is in his room, i guess.) then he'll have to knock on the door.]
Mineo! Hey...

he looks up from the counter and to sloth and just
looks somewhere between guilty and furious. they're warring emotions.]

[but mineo will at least be in the kitchen, making ramen for myself like he's finally remembered to eat.
when greed arrives, mineo will point to a cup of tea that he brewed]
Take that at least. I don't know how much you guys eat, but it was a long day for you too, Greed-san.
