Thanatos and Orpheus // Private Thread for the Win

[itsnotaleash]

[Thanatos can be found in the dorm room asleep on a pile of ancient tomes. There are a whole bunch of them scattered about his sleeping person and even a few across the room, most of those tomes open or bent from obvious abuse. Seems when they're useless, Thanatos throws them aside in frustration before preying on the next. It doesn't help most of them are in languages Thanatos doesn't know and so he outright can't use them in his sudden quest for research. Who knows how long he has been at this... It doesn't seem like he'll be asleep like that for any much longer either since he's going through all the signs he's in one of his nightmares.]

Oh, I will. Our kittens sure know how to hide! [Still holding the one kitten, Thanatos goes on an adventure to find the various other kittens lost in the mess of books. At the same time, he's also helping Orpheus organize. Well, he's trying to help organize at least. While all of the books are old, a few are actually in a language Thanatos can understand, which is why those ones aren't thrown about like the rest of the books were. Some books even show signs that Thanatos took the time to read through them and leave bookmarks so he can go back and reference them when he needs to. ... That pocket dimension in the closet sounds like a great way to store all of these tomes.

... Those kittens sure know how to hide from Death well. Until he finds a few behind a particularly large stack of tomes and one even under an open, upside down book.]

[If there's a reaction to the books with the bookmarks in them, it's only keeping them to the side for easier access. You're capable of retaining focus when you're actually motivated to do so. If only you had that same attention span towards your job. So have that pile of already-read books dropped one one of the uncovered desks, then back into the forest of books.]

[For a few seconds at least. Have another kitten dropped on said pile in question. Keep them out of the way, damnit.]

[Keeps the kittens all in one pile as Orpheus cleans up the forest of books there in the one room. This is a harder job than it sounds since the kittens keep mewling and trying to escape from the pile to run amok around the mess. A few of the fuzzy kitten butts flee towards Orpheus while he's lifting a particularly large amount of books in his arms. Oh shi-]

A-ah! Come back!

[Cue Thanatos moving fast to get the kittens before they get to Orpheus.]
