You're so right. It'll look great going into you at the orgy.

[Maybe she should've waited to do this so she could've shown him that instead...]

Oh - oh, it absolutely will! I hadn't even thought of that, how beautiful that will look...!

[He's actually holding his face, now. Perhaps actually drooling a little, even.
Gross.]

... I want a shade of lipstick this color. Perhaps a set of nails to match.
You'll help me with that, won't you? In the real world, outside of the dream?

Of course I will! I'll make sure it's as close a match as possible without, you know, actually having his dick there to reference. I think we'd get thrown out of the makeup store.

...

Not if we're matching via a photo, I'm sure. Do you think he'd allow me a photo?
So-called "dick pics" are normal amongst friends-with-benefits, aren't they?

Eh... I think I've gotten more dick pics from guys wanting to be my human exception than my actual partners. Definitely go for full nudes over dick pics if you do ask him.

[Oh, hmm. Something about that has him pulling a face momentarily.]

... Does this mean you wouldn't want any such pictures unless they're full nudes?

[sir.]

Pretty much. -I mean this in the nicest way possible, but your dick is not that interesting on its own. I'd much rather be able to see your face.

[More face pulling!!]

Fair enough, I suppose... a bit sad, though. I'd just begun to get the lighting correct.

[sir????]

Oh - well, I'm sure your nudes will come out spectacular?

That's if I can take them... admittedly, I'd been struggling with finding a good angle for a full nude. It's difficult when I am the one having to both hold the phone, take the photo, and pose for it.

And a mirror nude lacks the quality I would want it to have.

[He wants it to be perfect, okay. Any nude he takes need to capture his beauty perfectly.]

Have you tried setting a timer for the camera? That's how I do it.

...

I hadn't realized that was a feature, no. ... Oh -
Or, perhaps I can simply take them with a digital camera, transfer them to my phone? There must be a way to get files onto the phone, mustn't there?

[Voice of a man who never owned a phone of any kind before Ellipsa. His parents probably got him a (high quality) flip phone purely for calling 911 if he needed it, and that's it.
Even though iPhones were just starting to really catch on in popularity when he died, no less.]

It's really easy to do that! I'll show you how I do it with my camera later.

[She's so helpful in the pursuit of artistic nudes.]

Ah, please do! I'll make sure to get a high quality camera, in that case; I'm certain I will find something with the exact qualities I need from it.
As high resolution as possible, of course.

[... A pause, thinking on something...]

Will I... be allowed to send you pictures of other things, as well? I'll need to practice using the camera, after all.

Of course! Anything that makes you think of me, I'll be happy to receive pictures of.

[And now a smile finally pulls back up on his features. Finally.]

Alright. I cannot promise it will always be something that made me think of you... rather, it's more likely I'll send you something I found exciting and wanted to share.
But I'll be thinking of you in that excitement, regardless.

You are the first person I think of when something excites me enough to share it with others, after all.

[...

Which means she can expect a loooooot of bug photos, yes.]

I will treasure all the bug photos you send me, don't worry.

[Smooching his forehead.

Also, she dismisses the naked Lycaon illusion, it was getting kind of weird to just talk about other stuff while he was there.]

[... Honestly, he'd been so focused on talking to Evangeline, he'd forgotten about the naked Lycaon illusion.
Evidenced enough by the way he sort of startles when it just poofs like that.

But he reaches up to touch his forehead where she'd kissed it, a flush coloring his features - but with his smile growing a little wider.]

I'm pleased you already know me so well. You won't need to save them all, of course... likely, I'll end up needing to clear my own phone from time to time just to keep up with the sheer amount I'll take.
Assuming, of course, that these devices aren't magic and thus have limited space.

That's how such smartdevices work in the land of the dead. No limited capacity, so long as you're willing to recharge them more often as they accrue more and more data.

[Honestly, she should put 'made Louis Garou forget there was a naked Lycaon illusion in the room' on her resume or her testimonials or something.]

They do have limited space, unfortunately...

This is just a thought, but have you ever considered scrapbooking?

[She really should. It's quite a feat.]

I hadn't, no. Such a messy, menial, low hobby isn't something my parents would have allowed... and while living in the catacombs, I tried very hard not to own anything that would leave a trail for others to follow through them.
The scraps part of "scrapbooking" would have been exactly that. As would the glitter, as I refuse to do something like that without it.

[... So, yes, he HAS considered scrapbooking, but his answer to the consideration was "no scrapbooking".]

Why do you ask?

You could preserve your bug photos in a beautiful, glittery way even when you ran out of space on your phone. I'm sure anything you made would be wonderful.

-I just think it'd be nice, maybe.

Ah, no, I do agree with you... I apologize if the way I described it as "menial and low" gave you the idea that I hadn't.
But that's simply what my father would have said. It's the reason I'm unable to truly craft any real form of art... or play any sort of sport you can imagine.
Or anything that has to do with animals.
Or anything even remotely related to technology.
Nor food... though, I taught myself that one, regardless, after I'd passed.

[Basically, he was given all of, like, two baskets to put all of his thousands of eggs in. This is a guy who would probably be able to do anything if he'd been allowed to explore it all, but instead, all he got was "you learn languages, you learn money, and you play violin".

But at least that means he's terrifyingly fluent in every single thing he was allowed to explore.]

... That said, as I'd just told you, I do agree. It would be nice -
Not just for my bug photos, but for other things, as well. Scrapbooking... it's mostly meant for immortalizing memories, isn't it?

It is. I have scrapbooks of my friends in Ellipsa, actually, if you'd like to see them sometime. I don't usually show them to other people...

[There's a lot of just - selfies, and candid shots, and pictures of people doing nothing in particular. Not memories that most people would consider important.]

I would, if you'd allow me. I'd love to see what you consider worth putting into a scrapbook -
Such a thing would be a lovely window into the way your mind works, you know.

[Because of course he's thinking about it from that angle.]

... That, and I trust your sense of decor. I know I'll likely need a springboard when it comes to decorating my own...
I've never done it before, after all. I wouldn't even know where to start, beyond stickers.
I do own a lot of unused stickers.

I guess it's probably pretty telling, huh.

[That she considers it worth immortalizing that she got to hang out with her friends, and see them smile, and things were calm enough to snap a photo of them relaxing.]

I like putting ribbons and buttons in, personally!

she's also like this so,

it's why they make such wonderful friends

weirdoes! (two of them)

a matching set!!
