Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
[And, reasonably heartened by the lack of sound from the other side of the wall, he lifts his hand again.
As before, the sheet of drywall gives a quiet, crumbling protest... and lifts away, revealing a dim storage room, racks and racks of chairs waiting on trolleys for a different kind of event.]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Totality slides up so he can take Satin's arm in both of his in a sort of ironically cutesy gesture.
"So we just scoot through there...?"
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
[In gentlemanly fashion, he guides Totality through the largest gap between wires and pipes, and then turns -- moving the clothing rack back into place, and then shifting the sheets of drywall approximately back in place.
To someone looking for structural damage, it would be immediately obvious. But most people don't first look to see if an escaped celebrity pried open part of a wall.]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
He seems a little excited now. The exhaustion hasn't left, but any kind of distraction is a good distraction for him.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
[With the walls back in place, only the tiniest cracks of light filter through, leaving them in the dark.]
If you have troubles seeing, stay close. I can navigate us through here.
In my current life, I'm an astrologist -- I left Acidia years ago. Finding paths is something of a specialty.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
[And he does, navigating through the dim area and back out to the corridors beyond.]

Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
It's Umbra's heart, or dream, or mindscape. Surely there's a park with pigeons and ducks here somewhere.]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Still... given the time and distance, this is not so bad.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
"This is the place?"
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Would you like to linger here for a bit?
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
He lets go of Satin's arm to wander a little bit further into the park.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Twilight usually is. It's too late for families, and too early for those who are less responsible.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
He plops down on a bench and pats the empty space.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Delicate songbird, quotes a memory. Sure to be eaten by hawks.]
As you wish.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
So long as you do not clearly and directly request otherwise, I will stay with you and ensure your safe and punctual return. Because no matter how much I disagree with the situation you have been placed in, what you do is important to you. The cruelty here is not in the performance, or your fans. It's in those that have booked you for stage after stage without rest.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
"You're a funny guy. Normally caring this much would give big crazy stalker vibes but I don't really get that from you at all. And you do SEEM to actually physically exist."
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
I do physically exist, and I have not stalked you. I barely know you.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
He boops Satin's nose and then pulls back into his own space.
"That makes you at the very least an extremely funny guy."
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
Even then, there's still no anticipation in his body language as Totality moves close, and no yearning as he moves away -- just the same casual comfort he's had through the evening.]
Knowing about you doesn't mean I know you. I'm not that presumptuous.
The things you like, the things you dislike, your thoughts, the things you feel -- all the parts that make you a person are unknown to me.
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
"I'm not very private with most of that. It's all out there in some form or another."
Re: [ PAVEMENT ]
I'm not going to look "out there" when you're right here.
