[ he actually does't have to say anything along the lines of "you so much more than tolerate me" - just raises his eyebrows and grins at him, this terribly shitty little grin while he's still being held, and kicks his feet.
[ hell yeah!!!! this is great! thank fucking god estinien is like never in here. i guess for emet's trouble he can have some room details - vax's side of the room is about as messy as you'd expect, mostly tidy though the bed's unmade. it is very big and full of comfy blankets, like the kind of bed you could just sleep in for days at a time. there are two stuffed animals on the dresser - a raven, and a bear - and a lone snowdrop plant in a pot sits beside them. his armor is hanging up off to the side near the bed itself, and there's a leather jacket hung off of the bedpost.
cozy! home sweet home.
he seems pleased with this little extra warmth he feels, emotions just radiating pleased cat, as he extends his other arm in a ta-da gesture. ]
[i'm realizing they've been in emet's room and i never said shit about it
but it's basically empty except that he keeps the white mask he made early in their stay here on the nightstand, along with a plush orca. this is absolutely more than he keeps in his own room.]
Honestly, [he says as he deposits vax on the bed,] one would think you never straightened this bed at all.
[ sometimes you simply just say things to get a reaction and this was one of those times. he laughs, emotionshare clearly radiating gremlin, and flops backwards instead, making space. the marine beds are not emet huge but they're not tiny, either, so at least there's that? bigger than standard. ]
[ this fond annoyance only makes him more powerful. anyway it does not take touch week to be a touchy kind of person, so, once they settle, he reaches up, absently, brushing a little of his hair away from his face. ]
We're already friends. [ him and bass, anyway. their compared gremlin energy is powerful and also this is his blorbo too? bass under one arm, riff in the other. ] Closet aside, this really a mistake? Hurting my feelings.
[it's not bad, really, this kind of touch. he's a little used to it, azem is handsy, but it's-- been a while.]
I'm quite sure your feelings will be fine, Vax. [he can literally feel it.] But-- good. I believe he needed more of those. He would complain to me, at first, about others not speaking to him seriously.
[ he laughs a little, amused, because, yeah. clearly he is fine! and not being told to stop means he will just continue to do this. hairpets! his emotions reflect nothing but gremlin mischief, a little affectionate fondness, though some of that feels more brotherly, likely aimed towards bass. not taking him seriously... ]
's young, Bass. Doesn't mean he's not capable. [ a shrug. ] I was a kid when I started out on the road with Vex.
[ so, yeah. the big brother vibes are there, but less "he cant' do anything" and more "holds this little goblin up in the air like simba" ]
Sweet of you, though. [ teasing. ] Caring that much. No wonder he was meddling with you.
[ he doesn't really have to say anything, right - the emotional vibes so clearly read but you like that about me. just a little smug but overall very pleased with himself.
emet does get a pleased noise in response, though, and just to really bring it home, he's going to steal another to follow up, this one lingering. :3c ]
[he lets it linger, an arm wrapping around vax-- this is becoming a little easier to adjust to, ease into, especially with how touchy vax has been with him in general lately.
his emotions settle, too, into something more comfortable.]
[ sometimes you are just a very casually touchy person and have very little room for anyone else's bubble? this is how we ended up here in the first place.
as he pulls back, he props his chin in his hand, giving off those same emotional vibes of content and a little playful and a little smug and... if emet looks up at him, he might catch that his ears twitch, like a happy cat's. just at the tips! ]

anyway he's like totally unrepentant for this behavior, twirling the lockpick around his finger once. ]
Wanted to know what was up with you. [ a beat. ] Then - well, you know what came after that. [ :3c ]
no subject
he's never been in marine before, actually? he has no idea which room is vax's. he's just lingering in the common area for the moment.]
You are quite lucky I tolerate you, Vax.
no subject
pointing! at his room. ]
I am pretty lucky. That way.
no subject
there's a little extra flush of warmth when he just agrees with that, as externally emet-selch huffs and just hauls him off to the appropriate room.]
Well, see to it that you do not take this for granted.

Pats bed and leans back ]
Could stand to be messed up more.
no subject
[okay. this time there is a little color in his face, as he takes a seat on the bed.
vax you literally JUST kissed him for the first time this is not on the table]
no subject
So how long's Bass been bothering you about this?
no subject
he does join him, though.]
Only since yesterday. Mayhap sending you to him was a mistake after all.
[he says, settling in.]

[talk! to! their bass!
the hairpets are fine, this can continue. vax can mess with it if he wants; he does get nudged at that last comment, though. tsuns at him.]
Well, I should think he has now had quite enough meddling.
no subject
Just my turn to meddle now. [ steals another smooch ]

but emet does, in fact, smooch him back.]
Incorrigible.
