Simon took it from him, patting Astral's head gently with his free hand. He laughed as he did so, before leaning up to put the plate on the shelf where it belonged. "I'm ready for the next one now."

Astral snorted some as Simon patted his head, grinning with a chuckle. He offered the next plate, looking up with a content smile at that moment. This was nice…

((dude I want him to kidnap me too lol no worries))

Simon took the next plate from Astral, carefully setting it with the other before closing the cabinet door over. "There we go! All done!" He announced, grinning widely.

(Lol)
(Everyone wants AU Astral)

"Awesome! Games, then?" Astral moved to hold Simon in his arms instead of on his shoulder, moving out to the table. He picked Mia up, offering her to Simon with a gentle smile and touch.

((Yessssss! Serna's awesome!))

Simon nodded, carefully taking Mia from him and holding her close. Thanks to the binder wrapped around his chest, he was a lot more comfortable with being this close to the god, relaxing into Astral's arms.

(She isssss)

Mia let out a silent breath. This was going to be hard, to convince Simon he needed to be careful for real. Astral smiled softly as Simon relaxed, holding the man close. He'd want to deal with Simon's situation… he deserved to be in a body that fit him. Later, though, he didn't want to push too much.

It definitely would be pretty difficult at this point, with how well the god was taking care of him. “Lead the way!” He said, looking up at Astral and laughing softly. He had a soft smile on his face, very comfortable. As for with his gender dysphoria, it wouldn't necessarily get better but he'd at least get more comfortable with his body around Astral.

Astral laughed some as well, hugging Simon for a moment before starting out to the living room. He would wait until Simon and he were closer. He hummed some as he brought Simon out to the living room, beginning to look over the board games there.
"Mm…" He looked content, one hand resting on Simon's arm.

Simon watched as he looked through the games, waiting for him to decide on one. He didn’t know too many of them, but he was a quick learner.

Astral hummed some, leaning closer to the games and bringing Simon closer to his chest. He nodded then, pulling a game out.
"How does Clue sound? It's a mystery game I've played a lot."

“Oh that sounds fun! I just might need you to help me a bit if you don’t mind.” He said quietly. He didn’t want to burden Astral too much.

"I don't mind at all! It'll be fun." Astral smiled, resting his head on Simon's for a moment before turning to bring him to the table.

Simon nodded, beginning to smile more then. He was excited to be able to do something with Astral. He wasn’t sure how long he was going to be here, but he wanted to make the time he was here enjoyable.

Astral sat on the couch with Simon on his lap, moving to open the box and set the game up.
"What character would you like to be?" Astral asked, putting the pieces in their corners. He was smiling, head resting on top of Simon's.

Simon pulled his legs up, sitting criss crossed in Astral’s lap. “Hmmm…I dunno. Does it matter in this game?” He asked, leaning back against Astral.

"The only time it really matters is game play order. Miss Scarlet always goes first." Astral pointed to the red piece before shrugging.
"Other than that, it doesn't matter."

“Oh okay cool, thanks.” He thought a moment longer before smiling some. “I’ll take the purple one if that’s okay with you. It’s like my hair.” He commented, laughing softly to himself. The dye in his hair was fading some though, he knew he’d need to redye it soon.

"Got it!" Astral smiled, looking down. "I'll be green, then." No, it's totally not because green is a complementary color to purple and the two fit very well together. There were no ulterior motives to Astral picking green, at all.

Totally not, totally not at all. And Simon, with his art hobby, of course noticed it too. He didn’t think much of it, but it did bring a smile to his face. “Okay! How do we start?”

"Well, first we have to shuffle the three card types- people, weapons, and rooms. Then, we'll take turns picking one from each to decide who killed Mr. Body, with what, in which room. Without looking we'll put them in this envelope. Then, all the cards get shuffled together and we divide them between us." Astral hummed, already shuffling the six character cards.

“Ohhhhh okay I think I understand.” Simon said, a soft smile appearing on his face now that he was more certain about the way things worked in this game.

"Here, pick a card," Astral said, offering the cards to Simon. "And then put it in the envelope." Astral had his arms on either side of Simon as he shuffled the cards and offered them, his chest resting against Simon's back as he leaned forward slightly.
