[ how will he murder camille in cold blood if war kills him on monday cmon
anyway yes. they had a nice and companionable conversation on the way up and it was great. rondo's relaxed and curious as he follows war, head craning to look at their surroundings. by the time they're up to the big patio, he makes a little noise of awe and surprise, putting one hand on his forehead as if he could see further into the ruins below under the starlight. ]
war stops and regards the starry canopy above them with a moment of reverent silence. then they reach up to slowly pop the mask away from their face, still looking up, so they can see. ]
[ what's left behind is an incredibly handsome young man with rich, dark purple skin and violet eyes. the short, white hair matches the white brows and white lashes. each long ear is decorated with elegant silver jewelry. he even has one through the middle of the nose.
wouldn't it be funny if i was like rondo didn't look because he was looking at the stars. imagine. no - thankfully, the movement catches his attention, and rondo brightens up! just as big and bright as the light orbs over head. ]
his face sort of gently screws up. confusion, not disgust. DON'T LOOK MORE CLOSELY. ]
Yes, well, I assume that is because we're brothers. [ he doesn't mind looking like verin, though. ] You undoubtedly look like your sister more than likely.
Oh, yes, definitely. She's just much shorter than I am.
[ rondo, who still thinks essek is tall, makes a gesture at cordelia's like. chest height. little. ] But, Ravus blood is pretty strong. Basically everyone in portraits of the main family is blonde.
[ these ravuses could be popped out of a cookie cutter. anyway unfortunately it's sappy time. ]
It's really... it makes me really happy. To be able to talk to you face to face, and look you in the eye.
[ awkwardly thinking about how he is, in fact, only about five-foot-six at the most. rondo is gonna be so shocked to find out.
also noooooooooooooo not the SAPPY TIME!!!!!! he immediately looks uncomfortable slightly, but in the way of being mildly embarrassed and also at a lost at what to do with this. there have been a group of SOME PEOPLE who often do this very thing to him, but it is still strange for the moment to... reconcile. for reasons. ]
What, you thought we were faceless aberrations without thought or feeling?
[ resorts to teasing and bullying to dodge the feels. ]
No! No, no way! It's more like... it feels more honest. [ except for the fact that he's ALWAYS sincere so does it actually work? hard to tell.
but after all - when sazantos went to the dark side proverbially, he wore a mask that obfuscated the majority of his face, so... there's something to be said for being able to look someone in the eye. ]
And, anyway, I don't think I could ever for a second consider you without thought! That's what you do! Feelings, either.
[ both brows rise in a playful sort of way. not to worry, he does not wear any sort of mask while lying, he just straight up turns himself into a completely different person. it's fine. ]
Well.
[ BACK TO BEING SEMI FLUSTERED AGAIN AT THE HONESTY. ]
[ get wrecked nerd. smiling!! as always. except on friday where he will be devastated for the second week in a row but you know it be like that ]
Well! [ hehe. ] I'm glad for it, nevertheless.
[ with that he will gracefully change the subject, glancing outwards at their surroundings again. ] ... you must be glad, to have a little taste of home. I know this week, I have been.

Heh. Well, if that's the case, then thank you even more for bringing me up here. [ there's a pause... and he peers a little closer at his face. ]
You really do look a lot like your brother.
