because this isn't creepy at all

[This Vexen is currently occupied in his lab, which he has finally organized and stocked to his own meticulous specifications. It is very clean, white, and sterile at the moment, and the only thing of note is the wall of shelves on one side, where many jars are organized, each with a floating Heart inside, each giving off a shine. Unfortunately, not all of the Hearts are that healthy pinkish color... some are purple, some are greenish, and a few are nearly black and barely floating at all.]

... Specimen H-023: Failure. Specimen H-024: Acceptable. Specimen H-025... hmmm...

I see. If it pleases you, I shall keep it here then. Then you may retrieve it once you find suitable accommodations.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

Would you really? That'd be great.

[ beams. ]

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[takes the sculpture from you and sets it over to one side on a shelf that won't be int he way of experiments]

It shall be right here for you. You may use this shelf to store any other belongings you might acquire as well.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

Thank you! But I don't think I'll be trying to get anything else until I've gotten myself a nest to store things in.

[ it's... not a typical bird's nest, but she has no reason to elaborate. ]

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

... nest?

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ nods. ]

Harpies sleep in nests. At least, in my world they do.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

So you would... build such a structure for yourself?

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

Yep. It might be a little bit harder on my own, but I'll have one eventually.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

It sounds like you have quite a plan for yourself.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

Well, I have to have somewhere to sleep.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

I mean that many would not go to such lengths, and simply settle themselves into a regular room and the furnishings within.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ makes a slight face at that. ]

I've never slept in a place like that before.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

You could try, I suppose. Or continue to search for a proper place for your nest.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

It doesn't look really comfortable. I'm fine with waiting until I find the right place.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

You are quite commendable then.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ blinks at him. ]

Am I?

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

Indeed so.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

I'll take your word for it.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

Very well, my dear. Ah, I have been remiss and not introduced myself properly. My name is Vexen.

[gives a slight bow]

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ again with the bowing! attempts to imitate it. ]

Mine's Kairi.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

[sometimes it's good to be polite]

Well, Kairi, I do wish you luck in finding the perfect place to habitate.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ did you know that her clan kiss when greeting each other beams at him. ]

Thank you.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

[that's mildly horrifying]

I'm sure you will find a place.

[dreamingharpy.livejournal.com]

[ it is! but also a little hot, because harpies are only female. ]

Eventually, yeah.

[chilly-touch.livejournal.com]

[you're talking to the wrong person Vexen has no hormones]

So what else do you do with your time, besides search for a place to build a nest?
