Welcome to Gaia! ::

Formerly "Other Destinations" after this thread reached page five of being exclusively Kromli's Room, it was repurposed. Description below.

Before Kromli explained that the offer had been made to spruce up his basement room, Tinuviel was about to suggest that he ask Matasoga for some new accoutrements for the room, but upon hearing that Kromli preferred it that way, she held her tongue. If it was how he wanted it, that was all that mattered. "Well, if you like it, it's good enough for me," she said.
Noticing the stack of film reels nestled by the projector on the floor, she commented, "You have your own projector? Why do you spend so much time in the library when you have everything you need right here?"

"I suppose I can understand that. Though, left to my own devices, I'd probably never leave the house." Deciding that it sounded like she was brushing him off, she quickly amended her statement. "That is, except for when you invite me to do things, of course."
"So...what did you have on the agenda for tonight?"

It seemed like a fine enough suggestion, given the late hour. She expected that she, at least, would probably fall asleep after the first one. "Okay. That sounds fine...Sorry to impose, but..." She was a bit embarrassed to continue. "I didn't know I'd be staying over, so I didn't bring pyjamas or anything, and I don't want to sleep in my good clothes." She fiddled with the hem of her skirt as she spoke. "You wouldn't have anything I could borrow just to sleep in tonight, would you? If you don't, that's totally okay. I'm sure it would be weird..."

After having changed into the offered pyjamas, Tinuviel joined Kromli on the pile and settled in as the first reel began to roll on the projector.

The next morning, Tinuviel woke up before Kromli, her body cramped from having fallen asleep sitting on the floor during their cinema-thon. As she rose, she smiled at her friend and his awkward-yet-cute way of sleeping curled up in his nest of clothes, a bit like a puppy. She thought about going to find breakfast for the two of them, but decided against it, as she wasn't sure where to procure it and she was also afraid of running into someone and giving them the wrong idea about her visit. Not that there was anything wrong with Kromli. Far from it. She just didn't want to have to explain to some stranger why she was wearing a pair of his pyjamas after having spend the night.

Instead, she spent some time looking at his bookcases, perusing the titles until maybe a half-hour went by, at which point she gently shook him, saying his name softly.

Muttering an "Oh, bother" to herself as Kromli moved his face to the floor, she rolled him onto this back, so that he could breathe, and said his name both more loudly and more forcefully, hoping to wake him.

The task of awaking Kromli accomplished, Tinuviel replied, "Breakfast would be great. Shall we dress first? I can wait in the hall if you'd like." She thought since it was his house that he ought to be able to dress first, though, come to think of it, he probably didn't typically dress for breakfast. "Though, I guess, that might be strange to do at one's house...So, do whatever you like. I'll stop blathering now." She quickly muted herself and waited to see what Kromli had planned.
