He returned his Archon's grin, bumping against his shoulder as the winged Flood headed past him to start the cleanup brigade. Tal made use of it, too, and soon enough they were able to enjoy a tasty lunch. As the happy couple snuggled together beneath Jata's wings, the courier tried to scowl at their canoodling on principle but it was hard to be properly offended when Ru looked so happy. He had to settle for sticking his tongue out at them when he thought they weren't looking before focusing on his own plate.
Hadama's question drew his interest, however, and he looked from the Tidebreaker to the other demigods in open curiosity, waiting for their answer(s).
When he heard Hotaru's quip about 'interior design' his brow wrinkled thoughtfully. He shoved a forkful of food into his mouth and then rose to collect the blueprints, shuffling them until he found the ones for the interior of the tower - mainly, a couple of offices at the top for a Dockmaster and post employees, a broad spiraling staircase, and a large lift in the center that could be used to raise and lower oversized loads from the skyships. "So why don't y'come up with some ways to spruce up th'inside?" he teased, offering his best friend the plans and some pencils. "You an' Sunjata. It'll be th'first thing a lot o' people comin' t'New Haven'll see, right? So we should make it look good."
After a moment's thought he took a sheet of plans of the outside of the skyport tower and handed it toHadama. "An' maybe see if there's a way t'make it easier for Mer t'get trade stuff to an' from it?" he asked. "We've got a couple hours t'kill before we start workin' again so... yeah. Anythin' y'can think of t'add would be great." Some of the workers were already taking a siesta and snoozing away, but others had come over to peruse the blueprints more closely, taking a look at what Tal had planned for the late afternoon tasks.
Tal invites Hotaru and Sunjata to make interior design plans, and asks Hadama for recommendations on making the skyport more Mer-friendly - for trading goods, even if they can't use the skyships themselves.
