No Respite [LOL Thread for Ixis and Schon!]

What a whirlwind nightmare of a day.

By the time Jim dragged himself into Ixis' tower and into Verity's first floor living room, he was utterly and completely exhausted. Despite tracking down a ton of different people facing similar problems, they weren't any closer to getting this figured out and now Jim was facing the prospect of sleeping in Ixis' body and spending yet another day as...not himself.

An unsettling thought.

Still, he's careful as he climbs up onto the couch, making sure to lay on his side so that his tail isn't pinched uncomfortably. Would he wake up with everything back to normal? Doubtful, but he can hope. Despite Jim's usual disdain for sleeping, tonight he cannot wait to fall asleep at even the vaguest prospect of this being over when he wakes up.

At least he doesn't have to deal with Ixis' bullshit when he's sleeping, right? What could possibly go wrong tonight?

"The crypt that-- oh, that'll be fun." Buuuut that's not something she's sure she's allowed to discuss, so back to the museum. "There's art from all over the world waiting for homes, so it's really a question of finding the money to build enough museum for it all. Have you ever seen a movie called Raiders of the Lost Ark? I don't want it all to end up in a place like that warehouse forever."

Plenty of implications there, but moving on, she has ideas. Strange ones, sometimes, and certainly unorthodox. Black walls in the galleries instead of white, or red, or blue, or any number of colors. Beautiful curving walls and garden courtyards and and and. There are pictures. There's an apology that she hasn't finished the presentation she was working on, but such is life: they're discussing it now, so get used to Pinterest, boys. But most importantly, there's finally a sign that she's excited about something.

And that can mean the world.
