[ Oh, he can decorate? G'raha has not had a place to properly decorate; even his room back when he was a student was simply borrowed, and pages on the walls are hardly considered decor. Although they might as well be, with how many would end up papering the place over the years and the different students. ]
Do you have no interest in making it resemble home?
[ He considers the walls--a bit bare--but is a bit unsure of how he would personally decorate it. Perhaps... a plant, on the table? A plant would be nice. Maybe they could get one. ]
[It hadn't, truly, as part of him had been still thinking all of this was just some very weird dream that he'd eventually wake from. It was definitely him coping and not wanting to accept the reality of the fate that had befallen their star...but home, huh?]
I ought to get more greenery if this is going to be my new home.
[G'raha nods, finished looking around, and turns back to Hermes.]
If you'd like to decorate together, I think it might be enjoyable. I have never really cohabited with anyone before.
[No, communal dorms do not count! Particularly not in Sharlayan, where most were sequestered away studying, or in the library, or conducting research. G'raha himself was not often in his own room.]
[It would be a novel experience for him as well, transforming a space to fit not only his own tastes but that of someone else. An interesting task and challenge, but one he's certainly up to.]
Books are quite good. I am not sure what sort of selection this place has to offer...but from what I have seen many publications seem to be of the erotic sort.
[Not surprising there.]
We could certainly get a few shelves though...mayhap some plants as well. I am rather fond of flowers.
[A brief look of embarrassment crosses G'raha's face at the reminder of the type of reading material they'd most likely find here. He has, of course, come across certain erotic novels and manuals in his years and years of reading, and has... read them, a bit. Not that he would ever admit it. But he does not particularly want a collection of them, heavens.]
Y-yes, flowers. Flowers are quite nice! They'd brighten up the space quite a lot, I believe.
[G'raha hasn't really tried his hand at gardening much, but he wouldn't mind it.]
[Well, back home, they had had specialists who would sell particular types of plants, seeds, that sort of thing, so perhaps they'd have the same here? There are so many shops and things that seem utterly bewildering to G'raha, places he'd never have imagined existing, but many of them seem geared towards more... intimate pursuits.
Well, no matter. This is an adventure in its own right.]
Perhaps we might find out? I've wanted to wander around a bit, but on my own...
[He trails off, though Hermes will surely know what he means. There are far too many opportunities for unwanted trouble.]
Let us make a point of it then, to go on a search for flowers together.
[What a gay quest but hey, Hermes is feeling that rare sense of confidence thanks to city shenanigans. It's better to take advantage of it while one can.]
Surely the two of us will find something pleasing.
[G'raha beams. It quite reminds him of some of the quests he'd assist with back home, and he'd like to explore the city more. Hermes will help, since he isn't able to wander as freely without a Dom, and he does appreciate finding one who seems to want to treat G'raha as his own person, rather than someone to be... well, dominated. ]

I think it will be fun.

Date: 2022-07-16 06:44 am (UTC)I suppose we ought to learn more about each other's tastes, yes? I am under the impression this is important when it comes to cohabitation.
[Perhaps he is... a bit too excited about this. But G'raha is enthusiastic about everything he sets his mind to.]

Date: 2022-07-22 05:23 am (UTC)Hmm... Well, I'm quite fond of history. Books, if we could acquire them...

Date: 2022-07-28 06:06 am (UTC)[Which may be surprising to many but to Hermes they're utterly wonderful, even if most of his peers saw no reason for them.]
Mayhap I should create some...unless there is a place where they can be purchased.
[What is a garden center...or maybe he should just ask Persephone to hook him up.]

no subject
Date: 2022-07-30 11:05 pm (UTC)[And by that he means flowers that don't really serve a purpose other than to be pretty.]
Their bright colors and wonderful scents, whether they be dainty or large and bold I adore them all.
