[100more]

We're all back from Eos. I don't know how it was for everyone else, but I got to live in a house with two beautiful women and a charming young man. There was a baby, too, but we had to leave her behind.

Now I'm in this flat that I moved into not long before we left for Eos, and it's fine, really, but it seems a bit empty. I know it won't be that way for long, since I'm very much used to living alone, but I wonder if anyone else feels a bit off after sharing a house with other people for a month.

And is it weird if I miss her? I know she wasn't a real baby, but she was so cute and sweet. Wherever you are, I hope you're doing well, little Violet.

[ Hob chuckles once more. ]

I'll take that as a compliment. But I'll never be that cool.

Do you have a favorite horror movie? One you don't get tired of watching?

[morethan084]

I don't know, you seem pretty cool to me.

[Daisy compliments, leaning back on the couch after setting down her glass on the small table in front of them.]

The Conjuring is pretty high up there. Have you seen that one?

[100more]

[ Hob appreciates the compliment, even if he knows far cooler people, such as a certain Dream lord who's probably too cool for his own good. ]

I haven't. I guess it's only fair we watch that one next. Just don't judge me if I'm sobbing into a pillow.

[ He could barely handle being chased by that snake. ]

[morethan084]

Aren’t you going to be doing that by the end of this movie anyway?

[Daisy teases, reaching into the bag of chips and pulling a handful out.]

[100more]

That's a different kind of sobbing.

[ And as if to get back at her, he reaches into Daisy's bag of chips to help himself. ]

[morethan084]

[Daisy rolls her eyes at his correction,]

Sure it is.

[Letting him grab what he wants out of the bag, she then moves it to rest between them again.]

You sure you can stay awake for another movie? It's getting late.

[She's used to staying up late, but she isn't sure if he is too.]

[ Hob helps himself to a few more chips and chuckles. ]

I suppose it is. Maybe we can save the other movie for next week? I'll probably have nightmares if we watch it this late.

Same time work for you?

[morethan084]

Wouldn't want that.

[Daisy teases, brushing the chip crumbs off of her hands.]

I'd like that.

[She can almost hear Joric encouraging her to put herself out there instead of isolating herself.]

Maybe we could make this a weekly thing?

[100more]

[ Hob was hoping she'd say that, judging from the way his smile grows. ]

Absolutely. We'll switch off picking the movie. I just hope my picks aren't too intolerable.

[morethan084]

[For all she cares right now, they could be watching Barney the Dinosaur. She just needs the company of another person, even if she can't come out and admit to that.]

Please, this is far from the worst movie I've ever seen.
