[why have they called douman here. good question! envy is just vibing in this void room, peering around curiously-- but they spin around when douman appears, alerted by the eye on the back of their hand.]
Oh, hi! Good to see you again-- I, um, I was a little worried you guys wouldn't actually text?
[not wrong? it takes about five minutes for poor ashiya to get a response back, and when it comes, it's keysmash and then an apology and then a declaration they are in the planetarium.
sure enough, floating there above the ground with hooded head tipped back is sloth. but they look when ashiya appears.]
[Douman almost looks embarrassed as they enter, with...something held behind them.]
You see, I thought a pillow would be adequate as a gift, given your title and all...but...it seems that wishing in this place doesn't quite get the results one asked for!
[Well, that is actually a surprise! Douman jolts in place, like a surprised cat, but manages to catch themselves.]
[Narrowing their eyes, all they do is smile wide and in front of Envy, they reach up to peel off the seal, revealing the eye. Funny that the seal had an eye on it, too.]
[despair will be waiting in the planetarium, seated there as the stars turn lazily overhead. their wings are halfway relaxed, still held close to them rather than spread out, and the light of the stars glints off their surface here and there.
when douman enters, they gesture for them to sit.]
I take it you had something in particular to discuss?
[Douman is, more or less, a man of their word, and so, perched on their hand is a tray with a teapot and two cups, just as they did with Envy before.]
[A polite bow of their head and an appreciative look at the wings, they make their way to put the tray down, and take a seat opposite from the avatar.]
Well, some topics in general, but... [They pause to pour some tea.] I suppose about the road ahead. About what has changed, due to all of this justice, jury, and execution we just witnessed. Are we to expect the same in the future?
[gluttony is already in the kitchen when douman gets there. a shadowy void of darkness beneath their feet closes up and vanishes. their tail sways low behind them, the tip flicking.]
Hello. It is a rather strange day when a priest asks me for advice.
[Now that certainly is a tail. Douman smirks slightly, bowing their head as they come in.]
Well, aren't you a pretty little demon. [And then a pause. Thanks, Gemini effect- Douman clears their throat.] Ahaha. Anyways...this priest has rubbed elbows with dark creatures great and small. I am hardly averse to the company of those who don't consider themselves holy.
right? I never even said anything to him, he just asked if he could give me a confession and it was that he's with somebody else and I'm too weird to date
On the other hand, he didn't even tell me, his friend and roommate, that he was with anyone at all, and then he went and told you and made an insult out of it! I thought he was kind, but apparently he's just selfish to his core. :(
I mean its not like I'm hoping for things to be better in this place but its alright. Its quite alright.
Anyways. My apologies. I shouldn't talk about myself too much. I asked you a question, Envy...how are you? It sounds like its been a terrible time for you. I'm sorry to hear that.
Better, honestly? The pinball machine is fun, and the food is getting better. Of course I wish there was more we could do, but I suppose its as good as its going to get.
Wrath, is it true we need to indulge? Even when we're...like this?
[There's a light smile as they see the familiar form of Envy, though they almost seem self-conscious, a little shy even as the other takes their hands.]
[That...is certainly a Look, though. Douman stares at him, concerned.]
[envy shows up at the beach later! he's wearing swim trunks and a loose, light pullover hoodie in green, and when he meets up with douman, he just. immediately takes their hands and leans in for a smooch. hewwo.]
This place really is nice-- Mahito texted me about it too, earlier.
[Douman, today, is in extremely tacky tourist getup complete with shorts and sandals because nobody has coached them on proper summer wear besides nice sundresses. Terrible. They flush when Ryan comes close, a little pleasantly surprised by the kiss as a greeting, but only happy to return it.]
He did? Ah, you know, this is his friend's beach... [The disgruntled feelings surrounding Mahito are easily buried by warm fondness as they squeeze Ryan's hands.] Do you want to take a walk...? It's a big beach.
[not long after that last text, envy shows up at douman's room! assuming it's not locked, he'll just. slide on in and make himself comfortably, coming right to them and curling against them.]
[Douman lifts up their head from where they're sprawled on the bed. However, Envy is already coming over, so with a huff, they turn and wrap their arms around the other, shifting close.]
Probably...a lot drunk. [A light laugh.] I'm just tired.

Geez, for a while there I thought they might execute you for eating a Toblerone.

It was a very delicious candy bar, though. A pity that it had to get caught up in all that fucking nonsense.
