The visits do enough to help with that, Zoe. [No honorifics, Beauty remembers that part.] Believe it or not some of us like those just as much as the offerings themselves.

[requiemed]

[She nods.]

Right... I remember that you guys get lonely when nobody visits.

[divus]

Bored, lonely, restless...different words that all mean the same sentiment. It's a shame that we can't see you all the time.

[requiemed]

That's something I've been wondering, actually... Why can't you go visit people like we can visit you?

[divus]

Well, we can in theory. But it's mostly a timing issue and ensuring that you're alone, or that you even want to see us.

[requiemed]

Well, if you're ever lonely and I'm not with anyone, you can always head my way.

[divus]

That's very kind of you. [They sound grateful, too.] But you've been keeping busy, haven't you?

[requiemed]

...I've been trying to, yeah.

[divus]

With mixed results, I presume. [That's something to consider.] If there's anything I can do for you, please let me know.
