i want my life to look like sunflowers and leather

NIKI

Frowning gently at that, Niki can't help but tilt his head. "Another ghost rule?" he inquires. "Or is your boyfriend capable of teleportation?" Because listen; Flora is a queen with demigod parentage who is capable of instantaneous travel and who has already come back from the dead herself once. There is nothing that feels like a strange question when it comes to the Doubletake and the people close to her in his opinion.

As for the sorts of people he hangs around with, Niki can only pull a face similar to a grimace and gesture vaguely around at his empty kitchen: code for I don't really hang out with people, Flora, if you hadn't noticed. And, as she has likely already noticed, he isn't really great at looking after himself on the average day.

"You heard me correctly," he informs her as she sets off on her bread hunt, Niki turning to take his kettle off the heat as it begins to whistle, pouring himself a cup of black and unsweetened coffee. "Though it is more accurate to say I threatened to spoon a loaf of bread, given that you managed to find it unscathed," he points out, taking a seat with his coffee and plate and setting the bowls between them.

"Sleepwalking again," he confirms. "I believe I must have awoken holding both items in my hands, and thought better of it."
