[DON'T JUST MAKE HIM BE AT SWEET PEAS AND CORN. He is at SP&CM. He glances around as if he half expected everything to somehow be completely different.
But it is still peas and corn.]
I wasn't even the one who sent any peas really. I only sent corn.
Essek has unfortunately found the couture store, so he looks like a rich, Victorian gothic vampire. Frumpkin is with him and also has been forced into the high-fashion, Victorian aesthetic: a little, dark mantle that has a fish charm dangling from the tie in front.]
Where even was the mini-event. I don't know. THE LIBRARY??? God. Well, either way, Childe just finishes up casually, as if he didn't just cause immense chaos completely of his own free will. Can you believe him.
He does look a little surprised to see Essek here, like, now, because he'd assumed he and Anders would head off to plan their date or... do whatever it is they do in private (talk about mage rights???), but UNFORTUNATELY Childe doesn't think he has any reason to run and hide... if he was going to feel any shame over the stunt he pulled, he would not have done it. Terrible.]
[To the market!!! I ASSUME THEY GET ZAPPED BACK INTO THEIR NORMAL CLOTHES WHEN THEY LEAVE THE MAID CAFE? Imagine if they didn't, that would be so funny. Either way, he's back in a normal fit now. No longer scandalous...]
[To the market. Wow, Childe really is right at home here because it's cold and snowy. I think. THANK GOD THEY REALLY AREN'T NAKED WHEN THEY LEAVE THE MAID CAFE.]
[Oh yeah. Wait, what if you are a cyoa. Shit. Well, anyway, just don't respond until later, we'll move it to FRIDAY. They can't have dinner when people are dead. SHIT. This is why I meant to do this another day. Why does so much happen during the week?
[Noncons you into another PC. If you were Yaywon I would just forcibly assign this a shirtless sparring match at The Cage
But no--sometime after execution but before the discussion about staying/leaving, Childe will run into him while he's wandering around... his emotions are still pretty bad, but they're not quite as horribly rancid as they were during execution itself, so he doesn't feel the need to run off. He does try to pull them back, though.]
[JUST GETS THIS STARTED BEFORE ANY OTHER INSANITY HAPPENS TOMORROW. SIGHS BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY CHILDE WILL BE THE ONE TO SEEK HIM OUT FOR THIS. Wrek can still win here, I believe this in my heart. I have given up on Anders.
Anyway, it is no longer emotionshare and his eyes have no light in them, but it is still clear enough that he is excited...]
He is coming in here to check on this idiot (Childe didn't even decide this). He remembers how Aventurine acted, however, and knows these things can fuck people up, so he is tentative in his approach.]
Anyway sometime before trial starts, when he is fairly sure he's no longer so horrifically brain souped, he will come find everyone's favorite twink... wheremst.]
[Imagine I tell you he can't be found because he's banging.
No, he is an elf, and technically only needs four hours of sleep which isn't even sleep at all, it's a deep meditative trance, so he is probably having breakfast by himself at the thankfully normal cafe (minus dancing tableware.]
[Normally he would give Essek space after their last conversation (party notwithstanding) but I want another thread so at some point he will come find him and wave his phone. Also he took the piercing out but he's left his shirt the way it is so now there's just an empty hole there I guess. It's fine. It matches the hole scars on his torso from CYOA, except those are way bigger because he got stabbed by a pitchfork.
Anyway. PHONE. He's got the missions pulled up. 2 out of these 4 options are kind of dangerous right now, he feels, so--]
Thankfully, Essek has returned somewhat to his normal self and is dressed more appropriately for it. He still has a shirt similar to the black one he wore at the party, something which shows off the stomach, but otherwise, he is covered in dark and moody colors.
Which is to say, he looks at Childe's mid-drift briefly without shame. Everyone abandoned him in navel ring heaven with Wriothesley. Anyway. Phone. They should definitely do the dangerous ones, Childe?]
[Looks at the last thread that was in here and starts shaking
ANYWAY this starter actually isn't all that much better because wherever he is Childe is going to come find him and just corner him against the wall to kiss him firmly and heatedly. HE KNOWS WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT WHAT THIS MAN LIKES NOW TO BE ALL SHY AND GENTLE ON THIS, THE LAST DAY OF HORSE HELL. But at least he'll pull back after a little bit of kissing, assuming Essek doesn't dick kick him or something to get him off. That would be funny.]
If I ask you for two favors, will you promise to hear me out?
This catches him so incredibly off guard he has to grab two fistfuls of Childe's clothes to hold on for dear life. Okay!! Unfortunately, it is very attractive. Also unfortunately, when Childe pulls away, he's the color of a ripe plum.
w0, monday
He is by the baggage claim, peering into the depths of the rubbery, elongated tentacles of the conveyor belt's maw... debating.
Frumpkin is also here. He is perched on the steel edge of the belt, peering at Essek.]
no subject
Anyway, while he's watching, Childe pops out of the rubber curtains. Boo.]

Childe, I have a question for you.
no subject
Honestly he's probably in The Cage so Essek might have to wait for him to finish a match, but he waves when he's done and comes on over.]
