[sqx gets a reply which reads:]
Very well. The kitchen, please.
[when sqx arrives, a figure a little taller than them is already there. they're in the usual robes the others had on, the side of the hood etched with the good ol' hamburger helper hand, though it seems to have been tailored to fit better and more appropriately.
two thick brown horns jut out of the hood and curve back over their head, and a black spade tail curves up behind them. two orange eyes peer at sqx, slitted.]
Good morning. How may I be of service?

[onward to the kitchen! shi qingxuan seems pleased upon seeing the symbol on the side of the robe, which is a little silly. there's a mouth on the symbol, there's a mouth emoji; it's not that much of a stretch.]
Well, I wanted to meet you! Since it seems like we have some things in common.

[sqx will get a message back (in like ten minutes bc gestures) that will ask her to meet them in the common room.
when sqx arrives, there is a pillow fort set up between some chairs, the opening facing the tv. sloth's hooded head pops out of the opening.]
You made it! Come right on in!

[true to her word, sqx's brought along an assortment of bottles from the bar for them to sample! she'll put anything they don't finish back later.
with a smile, she heads into the pillow fort.]
This looks cozy! How are you doing today?

[there's no answer as far as texting goes.
but! the next time sqx is in the kitchen, there's a hooded figure with a crown symbol embroidered into the hood. they're - why are they sitting on top of the fridge.
anyway. they don't say anything, they just watch her as she walks in.]

[sad!
anyway, woman cannot live on booze alone, so she does eventually head into the kitchen. she opens the fridge, sees some rotten veggies, closes the fridge, steps back to wait, and then looks up -
and lets out a yelp and stumbles back a few steps when she spots pride up there. after rubbing at her eyes to make sure she isn't just seeing things, she looks back up.]
Ah - hello! You came after all!

[shi qingxuan really won't have to go very far because when she looks up from the reply message she'll find lust standing in front of her, bouncing on the balls of their feet and hood firming in place.]
I was hoping to see you soon. Wanna go to the common room? The bar there should have a bunch of stuff.

Sure, that sounds like a great idea!
[sqx has been living at the bar.
anyway, onward they go!]
How have you been doing, Lust?

You've already helped me by coming here!
[she smiles at them. hello envy!]
We didn't really get the chance to talk, the other day. I wanted to say hello and see how you're doing now that we're a little more settled in.

Hi!
[and then, immediately distracted by the cat -]
Oh, how cute! What's their name?

[sqx is never late for drinking... anyway, she smiles and greets greed with a smile.]
Well, I'm the one who asked to see you! It'd be rude for me to be late, right?

[gluttony is waiting for sqx this time in........gasp......the common room!
they are standing beside one of the couches, and glance up when sqx comes in. hm. at the back of the couch, a fuzzy black head sloooooowly lifts up enough to look over with bright green eyes, ears back.]
Hello, Miss Shi Qingxuan. You did not have to go through the trouble.

Hello, Miss Shi Qingxuan. You did not have to go through the trouble.
[KITTY.
anyway, she smiles.]
I wanted to! But really. You have to promise not to laugh. I'm serious!
[with that, she holds out...
well, it's the flimsy sword that she took from the circus. upon realizing that it was going to be functionally useless as a weapon, she tore off some strips of fabric from some of the costumes in her wardrobe and tied one end to the sword, then attached a feather from another sexy costume to the other end of the strip.
it's not a stick and a string, but... she didn't have a lot to work with.
she's also aware it looks really stupid, hence the "don't laugh".]

[when wrath finds her she's just. slumped over. facefirst at the bar. there's an empty jug of rice wine next to her and absolutely no cups; she just drank the whole thing directly out of it.]
I'm a god and I can't even solve a murder.

[look, they're stupid, but they aren't quite THAT stupid. they come floating in for the bar to find drunk sqx. PLEASE, YOUR DRINKING HABITS...........
it's a wonder they even made it without falling asleep. but they drift up to the edge.]
Shi Qingxuan! Oh, wow! You're really going to die of alcohol poisoning!

[despair is waiting in the planetarium, settled there as they wait for her to arrive. when she does, they look up, but they don't really waste time with pleasantries.]
I believe you had questions, did you not-- you may ask, though as always, answers are hardly promised.

[here she is! when she arrives, she gives despair a little wave - but since they're getting right to it, so will she.]
I was hoping to learn a little more about what would count as indulgences for your sin, actually, so... [that. seems like something they should be able to answer?] I know I'm not aligned to it, but... there are a fair number of people I care about who are, so I'd like to be able to help make sure they're doing what they need to.
[the broadcast with nathan kind of freaked her out! the last thing she wants is for one of her friends to end up that way for lack of indulging...]

Thank you for coming.

O-Okay! Okay!
[for once, he isn't floating!
instead, he's lying on his back on the grass, surrounded by an assortment of many doggos whose tails are wagging furiously. his skinny arms are stuck up out of the mass, and he's repeatedly giving yelps of laughter.
he's being MAULED by VICIOUS DOGS clearly.]
I thought a three-headed dog was bad, but even one-headed ones are sure something!

[that text is concerning??
so, shi qingxuan goes running to the dog park. the blanket is left abandoned in her room (she'll go back and fetch it if he wants it back later), and when she spots him buried in a pile of puppies, she darts over.
she's a little out of breath as she crouches down next to him and tries to sort through the dogs...]
Ah... they... [she lifts one pup up so that hopefully he can sit up at least??] ...they seem to like you!

anyway, she seems amused, and since she's carrying a cute little travel neck pillow that's vaguely shaped like a dog that reminds her of the dogs they were playing with at the dog park before, she'll just head over to where they're floating and tucks it around their neck.]

[gluttony is in the tea room. but they aren't standing around like they usually are. instead, they are? kneeling down on the floor?
the tables have been moved to each edge of the room near the front. in the back, a line has been hung from one wall to the next, and several white button-up shirts are hung up. it looks like they should be flapping in the spring day breeze of the digital wall, but it's an illusion.
gluttony is on the floor with a large tub and a wash board. they are dutifully scrubbing another white shirt with gusto. from out of the hood, there's sparkles. they do stop when shi qingxuan enters.]

Hello, Miss Shi Qingxuan.
[why the tea room... she's been avoiding it ever since they scared the shit out of her at dinner...
but she heads there, anyway.

theyre acting very similarly to how aoi and i were acting yesterday and saturday. . .
[envy leads her off to the house! specifically, to one of the less-used rooms, grabbing a blanket off the living room couch along the way. he spreads the blanket on the bed so they don't just have to sit on a layer of dust, then takes a seat, gesturing for shi qingxuan to join him.]
I think we've worked out how to do this, so-- c'mere, give me your hand.

Alright...
[hand, offered! she's not exactly nervous about this, because, well. heart full, head empty, she hasn't really thought ahead. she just wants to Help.
wow it would help if i hit send on this. fck]
