[Lavi's at the gym, a place where one should exercise, but what he's really doing is just sitting on some equipment, watching lin jingheng...
not in an intense, creepy sort of way -- though this is still kinda creepy... if it makes it better(?) the small, flying creature hovering over his head is also staring at lin jingheng
jiiiiiiii.....]

[ uhhhhhhhhh lin jingheng is just running his energy out on one of these treadmills. he's kind of vibing for a while until he can see this weird floaty creature just kind of watching him from overhead? hello?
he reaches up and bats a littlelike a cat ]
If it's one of you devils then beat it. [ fruity weirdos ]

[cat.... Lavi untangles himself from his seat, moving on over to drape his arms on the treadmill next to our other hell dad,]
That's Golem, my communication device. It's got wings so it can follow me around on missions, and the eye's just so it can move around.
[hi ljh!!!]

[hi ljh!!!]
[this is so funny, the way Lavi perks up at being recognized,]
I usually keep it in my pocket. [the golem closes it's eye and retracts its wings, then falls into lavi's waiting palm.
he sticks it in his pockets]
Lin Jingheng, right? [his pronunciation's perfect for a white(?) boy,] You friends with Lu Bixing?
[look lavi made a few educated guesses? in that he looked at their ages, their names, their skillsets, and then went ?]

[At that, Lavi blinks -- surprised.]
No way. Gideon said I got lucky with my roommate, and I think so too. He's pretty cool, and Poppy's cute.
[also, it helps that lu bixing is super interesting...]

[kanda... but nicer...]
Never thought I'd see an angel, or anyone like Filbo. But the rest of us are fun too. Everyone's profiles are pretty exciting.
[like lin jingheng... is this man truly in his forties]

[ he is going to make his way to the library in his search for lavi and upon catching sight of him will make his way over. he is wearing a very familiar brown coat, one that definitely belongs to lu bixing, over his shoulders. ]
Evening.
Evening.

[Lavi is on the floor, half-hidden by a stack of books. At the sound of Lin Jingheng's voice, he sits up, smiling.]
Hey, man.
[his voice is light, maybe too light]
Poppy still with you?
Hey, man.
[his voice is light, maybe too light]
Poppy still with you?
[his eyebrow goes up, surprised -- before he smiles again, more tentative.]
It's nothing. Just beating myself up on stuff I should've checked up on, that's all.

Felt even shorter.
[woweee, the tension in that room...]
...Thanks. You did too -- you and Kon. Those pat downs couldn't have been comfy.
[he's pretty sure more people yelled about that than the feet?]

[. . .]
Yeah.
[the word is an agreement, but also heavy.]
You know -- when he said he'd killed teenagers in war and that it was the same for him here... It made me angry, but I wasn't surprised. War doesn't leave you when you're alive, why should it when you're dead?
Yeah.

War doesn't leave you, he's right.
[ jingheng rubs his eyes slowly. he speaks even slower. it's like he runs on a battery and he's dedicating the last few dregs to only a few. ]
But we can always do better. Always be better.
[ he glances down a moment, thinks. ]
... I left it because I wanted to do better than them.

[at that lavi shifts, turning his gaze on Jingheng.]
...You mean Eden? Man-made paradise, but it still has war?

[STOP THIS IS SO MEAN TO FILBO,]
I thought he was an Akuma...
[also mean to filbo]
I thought he was an Akuma...
[also mean to filbo]
It's the name of a monster in my world. They normally look human, but some of them look kinda like Filbo in their true form.
[mean to filbo.....]
Definitely not as nice though.
[mean to filbo.....]
Definitely not as nice though.
[It should disappoint Lavi, and maybe it does -- a little. But reading Lu Bixing's book about the paradise of Eden...
'There will always be war', huh. He tips his head back and exhales, his breath a noisy sigh.]
...I shouldn't judge when I haven't even seen it for myself.
