R5: ghost hangout
[What's this? The fog of the miasma has pulled back, revealing a path down to the basement. None of the living seem to notice it though, only those who are dead are aware of it.
Down in the basement is a large furnished room. It doesn't seem as dusty as the rest of the house, and it actually seems lived in? Or...un-lived in, technically. But the lighting here works and there's plenty to do. Even if the ghosts might not need it, there's several beanbag chairs (brought in by one of the many groups of teenagers who have disappeared into the house), a large couch, and even a jacuzzi. Because even if you're in eternal pain, you can relax a bit, right?
If the ghosts look up, they'll see that the ceiling appears to be made of spider-patterned stained glass. Which is weird, considering that it should be floorboards and such. But the stained glass allows them to look up into all parts of the house and easily spy on the living. What they hear can be hit or miss, especially if the living are whispering, but seeing what they're up to should be easy enough.
Well. Might as well make the most of this space, right?]

She taps her fingers on the back of Sho's hand and hums. ]
Er.
[ ... ]
I have not kissed another before. [ she used to hope it would be with Dimitri, but. whoops. ] I am--do you wish for me to kiss you, or...?
[ does he want her to kiss Sho, or. ]
no subject
[those little hits of happiness that the Curse had given them on Sunday were intoxicating, as was the idea of no longer feeling the explosion in his chest every minute of every day.
Either way, kisses are... weird. Not bad! Just weird. He figures they'd probably be a lot better if they weren't all dead and cold, but the way it makes his heart flutter is... well. Not bad. That's really the only thing Sho's poor, stunned brain can come up with. When Gio breaks it off, Sho turns as bright a red as a dead man can and he looks away] I uh... you two go... next... I need a second....
no subject
Oh my god you're so cute. And I can say that now!
[ HE HAS SO MUCH POWER. And then Flayn speaks up, and Giovanni turns to her, mildly astonished. ]
Really? You actually - never? Remind me again how old you are?
[ Not judging or anything, but if Giovanni was eleventy thousand years old he would have used at least a couple of those years to smooch people. He's just sayin'.
But okay, Sho told them to go ahead, and it does look like he's going to be out of commission for the time being, so Giovanni takes a hesitant step towards Flayn. He knows it's not - like, kind of hilariously not - but it still feels a little like he's cradle robbing. ]
I mean... if you don't mind me being your first, then... look, I'll show you. It's pretty easy. You just kinda...
[ He has to lean down a lot farther this time (curse his beanpoliness!), but eventually, he gets there, pressing his lips to hers. ]
no subject
[ Despite being the saintly patron of romance. She should probably tell them about that stuff, soon.
Flayn nods, though--she definitely doesn't mind--and floats off the ground a few inches to help alleviate his need to stoop down. It's not what she expected it would be, because...yeah, they're both dead and cold. But beneath the choking in her lungs is a fluttering in her stomach, and if she can drown the former out with the latter for a handful of moments, she can forget about it just then.
She pulls back for a second before putting her hands on both sides of Gio's face and leaning in to give him a more lingering kiss, gently, softly as she can in the violent state of mind they're in. ]
no subject
[he is still kind of BSODing over here as he watches them. Augh..... cute.........]
no subject
...Wow. For someone who doesn't know what they're doing, you sure know what you're doing.
[ Maybe it's a hivemind thing; maybe she's just a natural. Either way, Giovanni isn't complaining. When Sho makes his protest, though, Giovanni just laughs. ]
You're really gonna contradict your Vessel, huh? [ He slips an arm around Flayn. ] I dunno, what do you think, Spearmint? Is he cute?
[ Yes they are absolutely going to gang up on Sho again. VESSEL PRIVILEGES ]
no subject
I am oft distracted by thoughts of such things, truth be told. I have had much time to ponder how to go about it.
[ t h i r s t
She looks at Sho, but she doesn't move away from Gio quite yet. Give her a minute. She's still enjoying this. ]
I would ordinarily be more inclined to describe him as roguish and handsome, but yes, in the present moment, he is acting rather cute.
no subject
[Now it's Sho's turn to initiate a kiss, with Gio again. Aggressive! Dominating! HE IS NOT CUTE!!! He presses one of his fangs against Gio's lip. HE IS TOUGH AND COOL AND NOT CUTE. Then he grins at Flayn] Well?
no subject
[ Wow. This... this is new. Giovanni doesn't consider himself the type of guy who swoons, but when Sho does that fang thing... well. That seems like it would feel really good if he were a little less dead to appreciate it. After he pulls away, Giovanni clears his throat before weakly speaking up. ]
Okay, I guess... that one might've been a little more on the roguish side.
assume she's making this face for the rest of the thread tbh
Flayn will, um. Pull up the corners of her mouth for them to see, briefly, because she has sharp teeth, too. Not even just the incisors. Surprise. ]
Oh, my. Whatever shall I do when said handsome rogue wishes to kiss me...? I cannot possibly say no.
[ can ghosts get lightheaded? she feels kind of lightheaded. what is going on, here. she had the upper hand for like, two minutes, maybe.
what the fuck are they doing, right now, anyway? all three of them? this is ridiculous? ]
flayn just like uwu
And he agrees, the scruffy beard is the most roguish thing about Gio. He grins back at Flayn. FANG BUDDIES.]
Oh, I'll be nice to the minty maiden~
[he leans down and holds her chin carefully in one hand, tilting her head up, and depositing a much more chaste kiss.... before nibbling her lip.
and they're dumb. they're being so dumb. this is the dumbest thread]
no subject
It's Giovanni's turn to watch as his two... partners? Friends with smooch-type benefits? Whatever they are to him now, it's his turn to look on as they kiss, and it's... really sweet. He doesn't say anything - he doesn't want to ruin the moment - but there's a soft sort of fondness in his cold dead eyes.
Once they come apart, though (assuming Flayn hasn't ascended from this realm entirely), it's open season, and Giovanni gives in to impulse: he wraps both of them in a fierce hug, surprisingly strong coming from his skinny arms. ]
We're gonna get out of this place. Just a couple more days. And once we're free, you guys are getting the best kisses I got.
no subject
This is thus far the pinnacle of her girlish hopes and dreams, and yes she may as well have just ascended to another plane of the afterlife. Gee, Flayn, why does your mom let you have two boyfriends? ]
Ah...ahaha....goodness me...
[ She doesn't think she can outclass that kiss in the way it just turned her entire ghosty self into useless jelly, but, like, she wants to be fair, Gio got a second one from her, so she pulls a similar move and plants a kiss on the tiger stripes on Sho's cheek.
And then--oh. A hug. Her arms are a bit shaky, but she manages to get one around him in turn. Right. A few more days. Just--this week, and it'll hopefully be over, right? It was true before, but she's thinking about it more clearly, now. She nods. They just have to get out of here. ]
