Are you hoping that sitting on my lap and cuddling me for my lack of body temperature will anger me, then?
[Adrian just sounds mildly annoyed. He has a lap full of Kakyoin who is testing boundaries for flimsy reasons. This is what life is right now.
Hierophant makes the physical contact easier, honestly. Not that he dislikes Kakyoin, but outside of Jotaro and sometimes Trevor (the Belmont, not the raccoon), being physically affectionate with a human is... harder now. Harder than it should be.
Well. At least it isn't more than this ridiculousness.]
I know. I'm choosing to accept that as evidence that you don't want to remove me.
[ He shuffles a little. Makes himself comfortable. Leans into Adrian. After a moment, he takes a joined pair of Joyful Controllers from his pocket, pulling them apart so that a screen forms between them. ]
I'm hoping that sitting on your lap and cuddling you for your lack of body temperature will let me catch sharks in comfort for the rest of the afternoon. Maybe generate some chroma for Hierophant. But if it angers you, that would be useful information. I'd know not to do it again.
I'm trying to find the one that steals shells to decorate itself with. Magpie shark. They're only available at Cordis, so they go away soon.
[ He cuddles closer to Adrian. Lets go of the controller with one hand, replacing it wth Hierophant's so he can use his own arm to wrap around Adrian's waist. Still testing, a little, but happily distracted. ]
I put out shells all over the beach to attract it, but the fucker just won't show up. And that fucking owl won't upgrade my aquarium until I have one.
There are some shells that it prefers over generic ones. Have your tried the moonlit conch? That's what I ended up using.
[The physical contact is... better now. Maybe because they're actually bonding over a common interest instead of Kakyoin barging in and pushing boundaries. Still, he doesn't squirm away from the arm, and is instead leaning in a bit to have a look at the screen.]
Those are from burying a shell where a moonbeam's going to hit, right? I've still not figured out how to predict where the moonbeams land.
[ At this point, it's less testing and more- he just kind of wants to have his arm around Adrian's waist. it's nice. Comfortable. Cool, but also so very not alone. ]
What fruit do you have? I have foxpeach. They have the little fox ears poking out of the top. They're cute, but I'd prefer some sort of cherry.
Unfortunately, it's a bit random, but if Jabbers' sister shows up on the evening she can give you clues on where that's going to be. Sounds like some bad luck.
[Cherries, huh? He smiles a bit.]
My native fruit are the wolfapples. They look a bit similar to the foxpeaches I think, but the ears are gray. I do have a tanukicherry tree, so if you wanted to plant your own I could give some of the fruit away. I don't have a foxpeach yet.
[ He says it as if that's a perfectly normal username. And also makes no attempts to get up. He has the flea, and is making a beeline (flealine?) for the museum. ]
[Adrian considers for a moment, then decides to haul Kakyoin to carry in one arm, basically letting him stay curled up against Adrian. He heads toward the bedroom where he's left his console.]
It's easy to remember - it's the red, green and blue levels of chartreuse.
[ For a second Hierophant's tendrils snake out to attach him more firmly to Adrian. But no. It's nice, just letting himself be carried. To rely on someone beside himself for this one stupid thing. ]
I made an account for Jotaro so I could donate fish to the aquarium under his name. That one's 229-228-226.
Color levels? That must be newer than I'm used to. I don't know if Jojo told you, but it's the 1400s where I'm from. I'm not entirely up to date on everything.
[He snags his console and decides to return to the couch. The bed would be too tempting to just sleep in, and Adrian has a sleep problem all the damned time.]
Of course. Fish donations. Have you done the fishing tournament under his name yet? The prizes might be things he'd like.
[Anyway, he's plopping back down in order to add both of them to his account!!]
I haven't. I probably ought to. It might convince him that it's not what he thinks it is.
[ He pushes Adrian to the side, trying to get him to lie down on the couch so he can curl their legs together. More contact. More cool vampire body against his. More of the pleasant sensation of moonlacing.
The notification comes up, and he presses it to accept the friend request before taking his slingshot, bringing his cursor down over the flea, and selecting 'use as ammo'. ]
Colour levels are like mixing paints, but for light emitted rather than light reflected. You have red, green and blue lights and you combine them to create a new colour. So for chartreuse, you'd have red at 127 out of 255 - that's about half brightness - and green at full brightness without any blue. For Platinum, you'd have those lights at 229, 228 and 226 out of 255.
[ And while he says that, he takes aim and launches the flea right at Jabbers. ]
[There's a pause as he resists, mostly because he doesn't want to cave in to Kakyoin right away. But laying down would probably be more comfortable for both of them after all, so he shifts to get comfortable horizontally for both of them.]
Why are they given numerical value? For precision?
He thinks it's a sexy animal game. I was just complaining to him about Lizard Quest, which has this princess who has huge breasts despite not being a mammal. And then he starts calling it as sexy animal game.
[ He doesn't press the issue, but he is delighted when Adrian lies down anyway. He curls his legs around Adrian's, tucking himself into the gap between vampire and the back of the couch. There. Perfect. A little enclosed space that's nice and cool. The pleasant sensation of touch becoming moonlacing. He falls still, done with pushing Adrian around for now. ]
Right. The same way paint makers have to keep the recipes the same every time, because you can't have one tube of hooker's green being a different colour from another one. It'd fuck up everyone's work. It's that, but for screens.
