(Lucretia automatically reaches out and puts her hand on Lup's, making her lower it. It's a very well practiced motion.)

Not inside.

[umbrastaff]

Spoilsport.

[ She says with no actual disappointment behind it. Instead she takes Lucretia's hand. ]

Show me the rest of the place!

[scholiast]

(She does. There's a bathroom with a tub and a cute little study where most of Lucretia's art supplies are residing. She's got an easel set up in there, mostly untouched except for what looks like a simple under sketch. The bedroom is green and vibrant and full of pot plants. Christie, the elusive second kitten, is curled possessively in the middle of the bed but she darts away through the open door the moment she spots them; Lucretia laughs.)

Anyway, that's about it. It's not as big as your house, but it's cozy.

(Also, she's genuinely so happy to be here. Might be obvious by the way she can't stop smiling, though.)

[umbrastaff]

[ Lup follows along and smiles at the little study. It just makes her feel so happy inside to see how Lucretia is taking up space with everything she loves in this new home.

The bedroom is gorgeous, too, and she snickers at the fleeing kitten. ]

It's so nice, Luce. I love it.

[ She wraps one arm around her friend and leans a little against her. ]

I love to see you happy.

[scholiast]

(Lucretia in turn slings an arm around Lup's shoulders, gives her a happy squeeze.)

Thank you.

(She is happy. It's been a long time since she's felt stable and safe like this. The end of the cycles really hadn't afforded that luxury, and now that she's two years into her plan everything is so stressful, hurried. Lonely.

Speaking of.) Lup, (she ventures, glancing at her,) would... you be adverse to having a sleepover tonight?

(She doesn't really want to be by herself right now, not when she knows she'll spend the time staring at her phone and worrying.)

[umbrastaff]

A sleepover? Gosh, that sounds so inconvenient...

[ She raises a brow at that and then snaps her fingers. A chest appears, holding a toothbrush, her pyjamas and some snacks. Leomund's Secret Chest wasn't something she normally prepared in her spellbook, so it looks like Lup had already been planning this. ]

I got you, bae.

[ Please stop using the internet, Lulu. ]

[scholiast]

(At least Lucretia knows what 'bae' means.)

Thank you bae. (... Though, uh, she's not quite up to date on how to properly employ the term just yet.

But she's happy, beaming as the chest appears in the middle of the bedroom floor. She can always count on Lup to have her back. She reaches out to nudge the chest open with her foot, curious.) Wow. You thought of everything, huh.

[umbrastaff]

My girl's been sick and I've been shitty and now Bev is too? You know Lup's got you covered.

[ She smiles a little again, leaning her shoulder to Lucretia's ]

I'm always here for you.

[scholiast]

(She gives her another grateful squeeze around the shoulders.)

And me for you.

This is probably long overdue, anyway. I feel like we have a lot to catch up on.

[umbrastaff]

We do.

[ She goes to toss off her clothes and wiggle on her full jammies. ]

Time for snuggles and catch-up!
