Fandom Island Museum, Thursday Daytime

[hasaknightjob]

The signage to help guide people through tours of the exhibits that in some way related to love, couples, family, or anything like it were in. Steven was rather proud of his efforts there, even if there weren't a large number of exhibits to point to.

Still, who wouldn't be charmed by some butterflies who enjoyed spending time together? Or fish that perhaps mated for life? Or art that...

Well art that referenced that certain pollen was probably not exactly the spirit of things. But to each their own!

Steven did his best to set things up before anyone came in. Afterwards, he could be found at the welcome desk, ready to give tours to those who wanted or hand out museum brochures which also guided visitors along.

He was, as always, interruptible.

Good thing, that. Because here came today’s regularly scheduled interruption, all traces of yesterday’s poor mood having vanished.

“Hello, you.”

[hasaknightjob]

Steven beamed when he saw Llewellyn. "Hello, you. What a special exhibit this is: the highlight of my day."

[pocketpretzels]

“Flirt,” Watts declared, clearly pleased by said flirting.

[hasaknightjob]

"Not flirting if it's true," Steven told him. He put up the sign to say he was taking lunch. "You are the highlight of my day."

[pocketpretzels]

“As you are mine,” Watts said, depositing his hat on the desk and stepping over to pull Steven close. “Come here, you.” A kiss hello was needed, after all.

[hasaknightjob]

What if it was more than one kiss? Because Steven was in the mood to wrap his arms around Llewellyn and have several kisses if they were on offer.

[pocketpretzels]

That could be arranged! And indeed it was made to happen as soon as Watts realized Steven was in no rush to go anywhere.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven looked at Llewellyn with affection when they finally parted. "There. Much better. See? Highlight."

[pocketpretzels]

“It can be both true and flirtatious,” Watts said. “I am certainly fond of it coming from you.”

[hasaknightjob]

"All right," Steven said. "Long as you know I mean it. Not saying things just to be cheeky."

[pocketpretzels]

“Not just to be,” Watts nodded solemnly. Though he was (unsuccessfully) hiding a grin.

[hasaknightjob]

Steven snickered affectionately at Llewellyn's expression. "Right. Shall we see what you've made for us?"

[pocketpretzels]

“Let’s,” Watts said, holding his arm out for Steven to take while they walked to their usual spot.

[hasaknightjob]

Steve took the offered arm gladly. "How's your morning been?"

[pocketpretzels]

“Quiet,” Watts said. “Unremarkable.”

At least the grumpiness that had plagued him yesterday had dissipated.

Nell was here to say hello as she tried to do most Thursdays. "Good morning, Steven!"

[hasaknightjob]

"Good morning, Nell!" Steven said, happy to see her as he was most Thursdays. "How are you today?"

[mylandmyrules]

"I'm very good," Nell said. "Looking forward to spring, though."

[hasaknightjob]

"Past the halfway point at least?" Steven said. "Day's getting lighter and all? That's good, yeah?"

[mylandmyrules]

"It is very nice to be out and about after five and have it still be light," Nell agreed.

[hasaknightjob]

"Is the lack of light something that troubles you?" Steven asked.

[mylandmyrules]

Nell considered that. "Not bothers me, per se, but I do like to be able to enjoy a little time afterwork when it's still light. You?"

[hasaknightjob]

Steven shook his head. "No. I suppose some things are scarier when there's not as much light to see by. But I'm not bothered by dark in general. Always did like looking at the stars. Not fussed by the cold either, though I know some are."

[mylandmyrules]

"Living off the grid most of my life, I'm used to the dark. And the cold. And the heat in summer," Nell said with a smile. "Not much energy to waste on frivolous things. And some of my happiest times were out under the stars in Soulwood."

[hasaknightjob]

"Some people could be used to things but not care for them," Steven pointed out. "But it's good that it doesn't trouble you. I know some who get particularly bothered by the cold, for example. Due to their own circumstances."
