Who: Megaera D'Ashland, Patchouli Knowledge
Open: Nope!
When: Day 269, evening
Where: Patchouli's Library
What: Megaera trades ideas - and perhaps other things - with Patchouli.
Format: Log
Warnings: Megaera being all touchy-feely and stuff.



The library's door was kinda heavy. As usual for a library, really, as far as Megaera could tell. Some historic implication that seemed to be across multiple worlds, perhaps. As if to emphasize that what was within was Important and Sacred, somehow. Which, to be fair, it was, as far as the redheaded devil was concerned.

Perhaps this was why she'd thought it worth ducking in to chat with the building's master, and exchange ideas. Or possibly other things. It all depended on how the conversation went. But one thing was certain: Megaera liked Patchouli's concept of priorities, and she wanted to make it better.

As she set foot in the library, she let her heels 'click' distinctly against the floor, so that her approach could be heard as she started looking around for Patchouli Knowledge.

"Only eight hundred," Patchouli stated. "I still have at least three thousand, I think. I could build about four more buildings just like this, by my resources alone. I'm not entirely sure if I could maybe form the all into one building, though, but I'm still not perfectly certain of some things regarding spending shards."

She hasn't had much need to spend shards, really.

"Certainly. And even if it's just us two spending on it...

"Between us, imagine what we could be capable of." She could create something far more impressive than the Scarlet Devil Manson. Granted, that probably meant most of it would end up collecting dust, but it was a nice idea.

"Oh?" She'd been told as much before, but not by Megaera. Besides, what made her so cute, anyway, she wondered.

"Why, that's quite kind of you to say, Megaera..."

Patchouli leaned back a little. Not nearly as much as Megaera leaned in, though. She welcomed closing the distance, but at a careful pace.

"You're quite the adept flatterer, Megaera."

"Megaera..." Patchouli wasn't really used to having others being actually attracted to her, as more than just a friend.

"Well, I didn't expect to hear that from you, I must say."

"Well, I guess I am alone all the time, and that's not that healthy, right?

"Well... I guess it'd be better if I were with someone I shared a common interest with, indeed." She even smiled a little at this! She also didn't back away as Megaera leaned in.

Patchouli didn't react, but she didn't seem to mind, either -- she didn't withdraw, her expression did not turn sour.

"I suppose so, you're correct. It seems normal to me, I guess, because I've spent much of my life alone -- of my own volition, mind you."

"I knew when I arrived here I'd have to change my patterns a little. I... didn't really ever think I'd get very attached to anyone here. I didn't think I'd really like anyone, I guess. That said, though, I certainly have become fond of some who reside here -- you included."

Granted, that was primarily as a friend at best, and yet...

"I suppose so, yes. Like I said..."

At this, she finally did, if only slightly, return Megaera's embrace.

"Like I said, I do value you."

"You're welcome, Megaera."

Patchouli, though, wasn't sure exactly where to go with this, either. Well, that was more because she tended to not take the lead in any relationships. She would let Megaera set the pace while she slowed it down.

Patchouli's cheeks turned very, very red at the kiss. It wasn't even remotely disliked, but it felt a little unexpected.

"Yes, I... think it might be best to talk about your primary purpose for being here, lest this situation become too awkward."

"That won't be necessary," Patchouli responded, as dry and serious as ever.

Sure, she had a basic idea of what they would be doing, but that was it.

"I don't see it ever coming down to that," Patchouli noted, "but I don't see why we can't reinforce the future building. As for the other part... certainly. As I'd stated, the idea of an annex to contain Colin's information had been passed around; I don't see why having even more space would be an issue."

"Most certainly," she responded. "Emergencies must be planned for as much as possible. I suppose that things could change, and we might need to worry about an invasion of the Bastion.

"Much as I'd... rather not think of said invasion being possible."

"If we don't prepare for it, it will happen, right? A common sentiment, and... honestly, not unfair.

"Perhaps we should be taking notes, yes?"
