Room 239; Monday Afternoon [11/07].

After an exciting morning of non-deadly heroics and fighting stuff (and of course getting something to eat!), Graham was looking forward to spending a nice productive afternoon back in his room to work a little more on that cloak he was sewing up for Guillermo before maybe pursuing other adventures that evening. After all, as a bat, Guillermo had been doing most of his sleeping during that day, and that was exactly what he was doing at that moment, hanging from the perch Graham had rigged up so that his friend could truly live his best bat life. And he didn't really mind, either! Having Gray as a roommate meant that Graham was pretty much used to working quietly in his room while another person slept away the most random hours of the day. It was kind of nice, actually. Really helped him focus instead of being distracted by every little, possibly shiny thing.

And as he worked, he occasionally took a moment to hold out the cloak and inspect it with a critical eye, a few needles hanging from his mouth, before he got back to work. He was worried that the cape wouldn't seem nearly as...vampire-y enough, and wondered if maybe cutting the hem to make it seem jagged or adding more of a stiff collar would help with that effect. Overall, though, he felt it was shaping up to be a pretty nice cloak! Nowhere near as good as his own cloak, of course, but he would probably never be as good at sewing and costuming as his mother was! And that was a-okay by him!

[[ mostly for the bat friend, but it is definitely also very open, too! ]]

It had taken some getting used to but Guillermo had gotten used to sleeping during the day and the fact he had an awesome perch made it even better, just hanging there peacefully and sleeping.

He could actually get used to being a bat …

He started to find himself waking up for a bit, he gave a little screech and flapped his wings and tried to get comfortable again.

Guillermo let out a little screech and flap of his wings at that, it was a little bright, maybe the curtains could be closed?

He wanted to go back to sleep, he wasn’t ready to wake up just yet.

That was much better and Guillermo let out a screech to say thank you and stretched his wings a bit to be more comfortable.

Now he just had to see if he could fall black asleep, there was so much exploring to be had later, he needed to be awake and alert for and it just wouldn’t do if he couldn’t fall asleep.

Guillermo looked very interested in that and wished he could be more helpful but he did give a few encouraging screeches that making a cover for the lights sounded like a great idea.

Guillermo could totally fly up there and gave a tired happy screech at that, he was starting to feel a bit more awake so he was sure he could assist Graham, he stretched his wings to show he was ready to help.

There was no way at all this could go wrong at all.

Guillermo gave a happy beam at that praise, or at least as a much as a bat could beam and flew from the perch towards Graham to try and see whether or not he could get the piece and fly it up.

Guillermo managed to get the piece on the light. It was a little challenging nub the eventually got it in and then he started to fly back down only something was wrong .

His wings were slowing down and then a moment later Guillermo was hovering mid air completely naked.

Then he started to fall, he managed to do a a couple of somersaults in the air to try and slow down and land on his feet. He ended up landing on his feet and then toppling over on the floor.

“Whoa,” he blinked a bit as he lay there sprawled out on Graham’s floor completely naked, he would eventually realise the lack of clothes but for now he was making no effort to get up off the floor.

That cloth did help very much and Guillermo blinked again, clutching the fabric and when he heard Graham and realised that he had in fact turned back.

“I did somersaults?” because that was clearly the most important aspect of turning back and not that he’d been a bat for nearly a week.

“I don’t really remember,” Guillermo admitted, as he tried to sit up, using the cloth to try and cover up as best he could, “I think I was trying to slow down the fall, I’ve never done a somersault before let alone two of them,” maybe he had unlocked his Van Helsing powers that he was supposed to have?

“It must have been awesome to see though, I wish I could figure out how I did that,”

And right on cue Guillermo started turning bright red, “oh …uh …right I don’t have any clothes on do I?”

Because he had definitely been trying to not focus on the whole falling from the ceiling and landing on the floor completely naked part.

This was very mortifying and right now the floor was suddenly very fascinating.

Guillermo started going even redder if that was possible but he was very grateful for the cloak.

“Oh wow,” he smiled, “it’s still incredible, I can’t wait to try wearing it,” admittedly he thought he’d be wearing clothes when he tried it but at least he still had something to cover up with.

That still wasn’t helping with the blushing and Guillermo did take a moment to admire the cloak, trying so very hard to not think about the fact that there was nothing underneath his cloak, it took a moment for Guillermo to remember that words were in fact a thing and he started stammering, “um…yes, it’s very warm…unseasonably warm …opening a window sounds good…er…yes…” his voice trailed off awkwardly.

Guillermo felt relieved when he felt the cool air hit him, he relaxed a bit still blushing bright red as he did.

“Thank you,” he smiled, “I don’t feel too bad considering I was a bat for a week, it was rather different to experience but it was fun being a bat,” he admitted.
