once more with shitposting

[Reim is loath to think it's convenient that the city needs to be put back together after everything. There's been so much loss, they've all felt it—but having something to do after Pandora is dissolved keeps everyone's minds off those things, more or less, so. It's a little convenient. It keeps people busy, himself included.

Most people, anyway... Reim has more than enough to do, from ironing out the details of the relief efforts (it's-not-Pandora-but-it's-mostly-the-same-people is not a viable organization name, the struggle) to dealing with people on a much more individual level, including trying to integrate the remaining Baskervilles— he's never been more stressed in his life!!

Unlike some people apparently on a quest to ruin the only peace and quiet he has in his schedule - locking himself in his office to eat meals - in between everything else. It's just after he's been to check up on Duke Barma, who is surprisingly... robust, if bedridden, and he's escaped that harrowing exchange only to find his office invaded and some kind of food out. It smells like food. That's not the lunch he ordered??

He sighs. It must be every day of his life at once. He will address... the office:]


Xerxes, come out of there.

[he doesn't even know where, but he Knows it's somewhere.]

[He made that time because he had to!! Learn to make time for stuff that isn't stressful in some way, god. Xerxes hums thoughtfully, like he hasn't given this as much thought as he has.]

I want to drink, first. [Obviously... this is deflecting. He holds his hand out in Reim's direction for his glass.] Then maybe if you stop acting like I've made very scandalous suggestions, I'd like to take a walk after lunch. Are you capable of doing that without your head exploding?

[Considering that all the recent times they've had to talk is when someone had a near-death experience... Is it normal, or irregular? Truly, the fact they aren't in some kind of crisis is something to be marveled at. But instead of answering, he opts to biting into what he thinks is at least edible sandwich.

It was a mistake. He hasn't been eating anything but sweets lately either, so this is truly hell. He chokes, ducks his head to pretend like he hasn't, then hastily lifting the glass to wash it down.]


N-Not even the Duke could keep you from spending time with me, anyway~! [he's dying] I just thought I'd let you know so I don't have to kidnap you.

[Xerxes mumbles something about how Barma doesn't do much of anything anyway, but it's under his breath because he doesn't want Reim to throw more food at him. He's now trying to pry open his sandwich so he can just scrape off the cheese... he's civilized.]

You're making a face, aren't you? [he still Knows] That is insulting to all my hard work, Reim...
holloweyed: (42)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-05 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
[No!! He's pulling this cheese off between two fingers and eating them alone now. Let him live.]

I asked one of the servants to get them just for you. [this is a lie] It was a long and perilous journey... [also a lie] I tried to ensure it was something you'd like. [this is the truth]

They have little fruits on them. [Instead of being overly frosted or anything, they're like. Actually not as unhealthy for you? Look at them.] You like such tasteless things, right?
holloweyed: (7)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-05 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Thankfully the fact Reim is too much of a weakling to open this package is enough for him to stop eating like this. Doing this will make him feel better about his shitty meal. He sets his burnt bread down, and leans over the desk take this cookie package.]

You have to be friends with me to open things, since all you do is paper push! [Except... he's also having trouble with this? His expression goes from smug to annoyed the more he tugs on it. Tugging... tugging harder...] It's just-- like-- like this--

[It rips way too much when he gives it his all, spilling cookies and crumbs all over his desk. He freezes, still leaning over it, mouth hanging open.] ... Ahaaa...
holloweyed: (x20)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-05 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
[There's solace in the fact Reim hasn't hit him over in the head, at least. The fact he's so defeated shouldn't make him laugh, but here he is, laughing his way over to the other side. Reim is miserable, but it's just like old times!! He'll get over it.]

So help you what...? [No, he's not that much of an asshole... Watch him get up and wander around feeling for a waste bin that he's not sure exists here.] You'll clean it yourself? How threatening.
holloweyed: (x102)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
You would spend an entire afternoon on cleaning? That doesn't sound like you're very efficient...

[He's doing his best!! He literally runs into the waste bin, but he grabs it before that can spill too. Phew.]

Are you sure you can handle being so important? [this heir to Barma nonsense... he sighs, dragging his feet to drop it beside the desk and just start blindly sweeping these crumbs over the side. Some of them miss, but he's trying?]
holloweyed: (88)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
[No more Pandora duties, yet he's doing all this dumb charity work too... Break could point this out, but he doesn't. Instead he pauses, then places a delicate hand on Reim's shoulder.]

I'm told I would be very distracting presence for a young lady's coming of age duties, so it seems you might be stuck with me on top of it all~!

[this is... the asshole way of saying he's sticking around, hey]
holloweyed: (23)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
Or you could let them handle it. [He says this with a sweet smile, but it's not a suggestion. He squeezes Reim's shoulder real hard to try and get across the fact he shouldn't do that what the fuck. Stop making more work!!]

You can keep me out of trouble, and I can take you to bed. [Ah, phrasing...] I don't want you falling asleep here, now.
holloweyed: (19)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[He can't see it, so he's just going to assume his slip up has gone by unnoticed. He's so smooth, obviously? Haha... ha...]

I thought you were threatening to cancel our walk. [Right, these crumbs... He's still missing a few spots after this last sweep into the trash, but don't hold that against him.] You shouldn't act like you wouldn't spend time with me if you actually crave my attention, Reim. Shall we go?
holloweyed: (x82)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Um, give him a minute, he didn't actually plan on anything after getting Reim's attention. He takes up the wine bottle in one hand and, though unnecessary, takes one of Reim's in the other to pull him out of the room. They've already established he's coming along and Break knows his way around the house, but like... he wants to.]

If I'm going to be staying here officially, that means I should have a real space in your schedule every day... I'm going to take all your afternoons, now. You can write that down later.
holloweyed: (65)

[personal profile] holloweyed 2017-11-06 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
But you never stop working... You're depressing me already.

[Is he whining? A little. He's whining while he's wining, because he's definitely just drinking straight from the bottle as they go now.]

You'll have to promise me you'll be done before it's dark out, then. [Hm.] And you can't take advantage of the fact it is always dark for me.
