[DRYLY. be amused he'll just keep being cranky
except uh
that's a bad sign, yes? that's. hm.]
...What's this Traveler like...?
no subject
[A pause.] But I haven't heard from Fontaine lately.
[UM. KILL BILL SIRENS????]
no subject
That person's record isn't quite so impressive, and yet...
It's best to brace ourselves for them having met.
no subject
[Suddenly, Dan Heng has his entire attention. This is going to be a pain, isn't it? Oh, Archons.]
no subject
This is only the fourth place they've been.
no subject
Miss Tubby, we're leaving now, but tell the Traveler to come straight to me when you see them.
[Right. time to...I don't actually know how characters leave the teapot but I assume Tubby is involved listen he's just going to assume Dan Heng's along for the ride this time. He needs to make sure Lord Kusanali and the General Mahamatra are...Informed.]
no subject
[yeah no he is NOT sticking around in an adeptus realm alone (save for Tubby), thanks. so he's keeping in range of whatever transport nonsense.]
no subject
[BOOP! Now we're in Sumeru City. Probably near the Akademiya since there's where Al-Haitham got kidnapped from, which means he's turning and walking downhill. If they're lucky, they beat Kaveh home...
He's a little concerned about it, actually, with how bad today's been.]

The moment the door opens, Kaveh doesn't look up from his sketching, initiating conversation as if it's the most natural flow in the world. ]
Ah, good, you're back. I've been having the worst time with these windows. I know you have the artistic sense of a door handle, but I'd really appreciate any advice you can give me on how I can ...
[ He trails off when he looks up, spotting Alhaitham with another person. Immediately, he quirks an eyebrow. At least now ever since his housemate befriended the Traveller and Paimon, he knows he's capable of making friends. By a miracle. But it still doesn't dilute his surprise. ]
U-Um ... you didn't mention we'd be having company.
no subject
No, I didn't.
[BECAUSE NONE OF THIS WAS THE PLAN. TODAY IS JUST THE WORST.]
This is...[...wait, what is this man's name? Oh. Not important.] A traveller.
[To Dan Heng:] Stay here. I'll get some paper.
[He's not going to just...take Kaveh's? That's profane. He's not writing on the sketches. How very dare you think so, narration box. He is however just gonna up and walk off into the study.]
no subject
[for the benefit of both the people living here.
Kaveh will notice Dan Heng looks exhausted, and nonplussed, but he's gesturing to the table.]
Mind if I take a look?
arrives a week late djhkshfksf oops
[ Kaveh huffs when his unused drafting papers are removed, prompting him to cross his legs and stiffen his brows in a firm glare directed at his housemate.
But then the "Traveller" asks about his papers, and the blonde man's posture softens. ]
Oh ... sure, go right ahead. It's nice to be in the presence of someone who asks before taking something that isn't theirs, unlike some other people who live in this house. [ HMPH!! ]
shhh it's okay
[Oh he's back already! And setting down the papers and a pen, casually just going to take his preferred spot on the divan right next to Kaveh. What do you mean there are three couches? It's fine. He'll slide paper and pen to Dan Heng, with the clear (he presumes) intention for Dan Heng to write down a description of his particular menace. Out loud with his mouth words? Use your head.
He did peer over at the design Kaveh was talking about anyway.]
You're getting caught up in too many unreasonable demands again, aren't you?
