Aren's eyes went wide as new flowers began to bloom in his hand, musing over their meanings yet again but this time around his mother's voice almost explaining the meanings to him. "Hang on." He pulled down his hood with his free hand, slightly squinting as he had to adjust to the light and his pupils shrinking to solid slits. His face must have been black and blue he reckoned, but at the very least it was due to blushing. "Yeah, it really is, it's pretty." He hummed softly as he met Vesuvio's gaze with a smile.

Vesuvio's ears twitched down into a more defensive stance as he coiled his tail up into a ball, blinking wide eyes with realization while Aren revealed himself to him, making his heartbeat near stutter in his chest. Oh, wow. He was truly gorgeous. "I.. Uh, yeah.." The haltija nearly whispered as he closed his palm down on the winding flowers, making his ears twitch back more so with his unknown feeling of fluster. This felt remarkably comfortable to him, a homely and new experience that he hadn't felt since he woke near the odd forest. Having Aren here, being in his room, well.. It made him giddy with excitement while his gleaming purple eyes inconspicuously scanned over the small details of his companion's face.

Aren blinked and picked yet another spider off the collar of his leotard, loudly breathing out to steady the distant heartbeat of his own. He could hear Jung murmuring something in the back of his head, perhaps taking notes on his guest. They had to tone it down a tad, that was for sure. "Is everything alright? I um... I don't have the most impressive of rooms but I hope it's alright."

"Ah, yes! Of course, it is very nice." Vesuvio craned his head as he reached his free hand back into the bag displayed in front of him, feeling for another chocolate as his curious eyes searched the room. "What is it that you want to do here? Do you rest?" The forest spirit questioned with a softened and sweet tone, now seeming intrigued in the many things that lay around the humble abode, searching it up and down, quirking his ears as his reactions saw fit.

Aren patiently waited until the other finished picking a chocolate out of the bag before searching through it again, a content hum escaping it as he noted there was still plenty left. "I sleep here yes." Aren said, gesturing to the pile of pillows in the corner for emphasis. "In there specifically. And that-" his hand moved towards the sole closet in the room. "-is where I keep the things I find from time to time until people start looking for them."

His tail flickered a bit as intent pupils blew wider with interest, feeling as a soft light scanned in through the grand window at his left. Vesuvio's eyes traced up along many drawings and paintings that caught his interest, making a low hum rouse in his throat as he pressed the chocolate to his lips, taking a small nibble from it and soon easing himself back more so. "What sorts of things, might I ask?

"Once it were sewing materials, another time it was a valuable pocket watch. Once it was tea." He slightly fumbled as he stared at the closet, briefly lost in thought. "Sometimes I... Mostly I try to stay out of sight as I give people back their stuff but I have been discovered more than once." He rubbed over his arms briefly. That might have sounded more solemn than he meant. "I got set on fire once." He awkwardly laughed, staring off towards something else again.

Behind him, the man's tail began to sway to and fro lightly as he spied over Aren's certain actions and mannerisms, placing the chocolate in his mouth and chewing as he listened patiently. Once done, the haltija perked his pointed ears back up and shrugged the fluff of his coat closer to his face, now draped in a soft circle of fabric. At the mention of fire, Vesuvio squirmed a bit and narrowed his eyes, cocking his head in question. "What on earth would do that?"

Aren grinned as he watched the other man's movements, finding the way the fluff of his coat framed his face oddly cute. He leaned back as he mused on the event, thinking of how to best do it. "The person who runs this cult would." He wasn't going to refer to her by name now, in a way he did not have enough respect for that. Just for the particulars who suffered that fate more often.

Humming in thought at the idea of this creature's authority, Vesuvio stretched his body softly and began to lay down, removing his boots and setting them down together as he because more comfortable with the other's company. "You live and sleep in a place where creatures are set on fire?" The haltija quirked a brow and soon stretched out his feet, or, paws. Stretching his toes and soon curling them as he turned to face Aren yet again. "Also, what is.. Cult?"

Aren moved a pillow over to the other, grabbing one for himself, considering wether he should do the same. "In a way yes. But only if you seek her our. Or well... Catch her in the hallways." He dropped sideways into the pillow he had pulled closer, staring up at Vesuvio from the corner of his eye. "It's... Well... All those people that live here together, we're a group. We have people that lead us, tasks to do, gods to follow... In it's basics that's what the cult is." Aren awkwardly grinned, stumbling over his words. "I'm not entirely sure how to explain it."

Vesuvio's arms wound around his pillow protectively as he gazed across to Aren with vivid intrigue, just as much as vivid confusion. He lowered his eyes to his palm, plucking a Lily of the Valley branch as it grew and soon settling it down onto the floor. He bit at his lip softly in thought, soon turning and pressing his face into the odd thing in his arms. "Is it safe for you?" He questioned in a softened tone as he thought over the possible threats that would come with being in such a place.

"You probably wouldn't believe it but I'm actually safer here than I have ever been." He rolled onto his back, turning his head to look directly at Vesuvio. "I had... someone after me, he um... well he hurt me in short, hence the brand on my back." He rolled on his side again and slightly wondered if he overshared, setting his mind on the flowers instead again."Are you safe?"

At the notion, Vesuvio knit his eyebrows with frustration and began swaying his tail a bit defensively, huffing through his nose while he thought over who could do such a thing. "I am betting he's a bad person, no? No one should hurt you. You are a dearest." The haltija felt a cold glow against his neck now, knowing that the odd lights in his earrings were blaring as his anger swelled. However, soon, Vesu eased himself down and relaxed his expression. "Am I safe? I.. Hm. Well, I am not unsafe, I'm here with you, and... Eh.. I really am not sure how I ended up here."

"I used to have trouble thinking he was, but now? Yes he was an awful person." He rolled onto his stomach as he felt a blush had started to well up again, pressing his face in the pillow. "... Am I?" He wondered wether returning a compliment would be the right thing, rating silent for a small while.
He sucked in a breath and rolled back onto his side, meeting the other's gaze with a gentle but vaguely tearful smile. "That's good. And well, we all don't remember how we ended up here. So you are not alone in that." He averted his gaze awkwardly, feeling slightly unsure. "... You're nice too." He internally scowled at the awkward phrasing, feeling his eloquence failing him.
