[ Caelus shakes his head, placing one hand on his heart, and says very earnestly: ]

It's beautiful. You're beautiful, too.

[ ...

One would be forgiven for thinking that perhaps he has been infected with nonsense by a certain Knight of Beauty, but no. Argenti had nothing to do with this. This is a Caelus original.

Anyway — Luocha's following statements indirectly confirm that he intends to examine Caelus here, in this particular sitting area, so the young man sinks into a nearby armchair. It's the sort with a decorative cushion, one which Luocha has likely never so much as disturbed; the Trailblazer, however, has no qualms about taking it into his arms, one hand giving it a good squeeze to test its squishiness. He sits with his spine flush against the back of the chair, long legs askew and bent at the knees, arms resting on the cushion in his lap. Quite comfortable, for a guy who just dodged murderous intent via Death Thorns. ]


You can leave it where it is. If it doesn't want to be disturbed, I won't bother it again.

[ If it doesn't want to be disturbed is, probably, the closest confirmation Luocha will get to the idea that perhaps Caelus is perfectly aware that the thing inside of the coffin is not merely a dead body. But, true to his word, the Trailblazer isn't so much as looking at it anymore. ]
