I mean, he's able to cook, but Mikleo and Dezel are just better.

It sounds like your house is pretty lively. It must be nice having so many people around all the time.

[Not that he doesn't like living with North-- he likes it a great deal, but without people to drag him into things, he has a tendency to just sort of keep to himself out of habit.]

[Edna shrugs]

I stay in my room most of the time, or out of the house. I keep my sanity better.

You don't like living with them?

[To him, that sounds like an amazing living situation.]

I lived alone for centuries on a mountain. I'm not used to having people around. Especially not a noisy couple.

A noisy...

[...

Give him a few seconds here to process this.

...]

... wait, who's the couple?

[Edna just stares]

You know Sorey and Mikleo, yeah? Or at least one of them?

They're together?

[Okay, so it's not a huge surprise, but still. Whaaaaaat.]

Since spring. How could you miss it, Sorey waxes poetic about Meebo every chance he gets.

I know that, but... I didn't think...

[Hey he waxes poetic about Richter too but he's totally not in love with him or anything, okay. He's also not turning red at the thought.]

[Visible ". . ." above Edna's head here because her confusion is that strong right now]

How could you not?

... I guess I'm just kind of bad at noticing things like that.

[His only real experience with that sort of thing is Marta and she isn't exactly subtle about... well, anything.]

...no, okay, no. I refuse to accept you are that dense. Seriously, did you think that's just how guys talk about their friends or something?

Well, I mean, I've talked about people that way, but it's not like I was in love with them or anything... I just admired them, that's all.

[He lies.]

Emil, if you talk about someone the way Sorey talks about Meebo, you love them. In some way, you love them.

[A beat. Should she...

Yeah.]

Or you want to have sex with them but given that it's you, that's probably not the case.

W-what?!

[Oh no now his brain is going places that he really doesn't want it to be going Edna why did you do this to him]

That's not what I meant! I don't want to have sex with anyone!

[He's really making this too easy.]

Which is why I said it probably wasn't the case.

[So. Freaking. Easy]

I mean, if it is I guess you're humanish so that's fine.

Of course I'm a human.

[Is he pouting? He's definitely pouting.]

I just don't think about... about that. Besides, it's not like I have anyone I would be doing that with anyway.

Hey, you can see me and I don't know if you're Piphron-aligned or magical. Not like humans are all that great, anyway.

[Seriously]

You just said you talk about people like Sorey talks about Meebo, Emil.

That doesn't mean I want to have sex with them!

[He really, really hopes that he isn't as red as he thinks he is right now.

(Spoilers: he is.)]

No, but it means there's people you might possibly some day want to have sex with, if you like sex.
