--Galatea--

[takesitall]

[Aventurine watches as the movers bring his new statue into his garden. He recently bought a new house with a garden and it seemed a shame to keep it empty like it was. He'll figure out if he wants a statue or not later, but this one was decently priced for the quality and he is never going to say no to art of a pretty man where he can see it.

As the statue is placed down, Aventurine notices an odd device stuck on the back.]

Take that off, what the hell.

[He smiles, tearing up a little. He lifts his hands, cupping both of Aventurine's cheeks.]

[takesitall]

Well, how do I feel?

[ignoranceisblight]

Warm... It's nice.

[He smiles.]

... Should... should we go sit down?

[takesitall]

We should. I'll cook breakfast, if you want?

[ignoranceisblight]

Yes, please!

[He's so excited.]

[takesitall]

Any flavors you want to try in particular, or do I get to pick?

[One more hug and then down to the kitchen!]

[ignoranceisblight]

You can pick! I'll be happy to try anything.

[He takes Aventurine's hand as they go down to the kitchen, only reluctantly letting go when they get there.]

[takesitall]

[Aventurine laughs a little and heads into the kitchen.]

I'm thinking omelettes, bacon, and pancakes? A nice spread of flavors and textures.

[ignoranceisblight]

That sounds good.

[And he'll sit down to watch and wait.]

[takesitall]

[As he hooks, Aventurine also makes a pot of coffee and some tea. He brings a small cup of each to Veritas so he can try one and figure out which he likes best.]

We'll need to go buy you clothes, later.

[ignoranceisblight]

[He seems a little more inclined towards the tea, but he does enjoy both.]

We will... you'll have to help me figure out what looks good on me.

[takesitall]

Things that show off your muscles, I think.

[He is helpful! And gay.]

[ignoranceisblight]

[He chuckles a little, resting his chin on one hand.]

Lots of sleeveless shirts then, understood.

[takesitall]

Please and thank you~

[ignoranceisblight]

I'll be relying on you to help me choose things.

[takesitall]

Not a problem.

[Several hours later, the two of them are heading home with an entire wardrobe for Veritas.]

Want to order in for dinner?

[ignoranceisblight]

Yes, that sounds good.

[takesitall]

Pizza? Or something else? I just don't want to overwhelm you.

[ignoranceisblight]

Pizza sounds good, just keep things simple for now?

[takesitall]

A cheese and a pepperoni? Pretty basic, but some options.

[ignoranceisblight]

[He nods.]

I like the sound of that.

[They get home and Veritas goes to put his new wardrobe away while Aventurine goes to put in the order for pizza.

When he comes back downstairs, it's in a couple of the things they've bought--a sleeveless turtleneck and some incredibly comfy pants.]

[takesitall]

[Aventurine is slightly distracted from where he's in the kitchen getting out soda for Veritas to try. He knew the man was attractive and that he was very attached to Veritas, but all of this is just...

Goddess. He's a disaster.]

Soda okay?

[ignoranceisblight]

Yes, soda is fine.

[He sits down, reaching out for Aventurine a bit.]

[takesitall]

[He settles down with the soda, cuddling close as soon as he can.]

Comfy?

[ignoranceisblight]

Yes, very.

[As he wraps his arms around Aventurine.]
