[. . . honestly, most people probably wouldn't want to be within three feet of someone who nearly killed them and destroyed the world all in one go. Ritsuka, however? Ritsuka was intrinsically forgiving. the kind of person who could look past one's outward demeanor, the almost comical display of villainy that person wore as a mask, and see the good that shined inwards. she wouldn't say that Moriarty was a good person, but like many of the servants she had come to know and love? he didn't have to be]
[she believed in him, anyway. and she was pretty happy to show him his new lodgings in Chaldea's headquarters]
Uh. . . it's a little messy, so let's not go inside. [SHE DOESN'T WANNA EMBARRASS HERSELF IN FRONT OF CRIME GRANDPA. . .] Servant rooms are this way, so follow me!
[And most villains, even saturday morning cartoon ones, wouldn't want to be this close to the person who foiled all of their plans.
But Moriarty was different - in fact, he had been impressed with the plan she had come up with, moments before Baal's plan came to fruition, with how easily she saw through him and even made it a worthy ending.
-Of course, there were still a few secrets known only to him about that whole situation that he was going to keep close to his chest, but...as long as he was here, he would faithfully follow her.
...And maybe try to tempt her on the path of Evil, even though he knew it was useless. Still, a man could dream, couldn't he?
With a chuckle, he nods as she side-steps going into her own room.]
Of course, Of course. It would be rather rude of me to ask to go inside, after all! A maiden's secrets isn't something an older gentleman should be interested in.
[GOOD LUCK, GRAMPS. it'd be tough to tempt a heart as bright and strong as Ritsuka's, the kind of heart that stood in front of Goetia and decided to fight for the simple sake of living, to be tempted down the path of Evil. but hey! she'd probably be a little charmed by him trying]
[probably]
That's right.
[comes her answer, quick as a whip and without any hint of embarrassment, even though she has picked up on Moriarty's double meaning]
You don't want to gain a reputation as a pervert around these parts. There are some people who won't let you live it down.
[people who are terrifying like Scathach come to mind. . . . . . .]
[Jesus Moriarty, don't rattle the windows with your bellowing.
Still, he's pleased that she didn't stop her stride even though she picked up on his double meaning, keeping an easy stride alongside her.]
...Regardless, you're correct - I'll happily stay out of danger and keep to myself where matters like that are concerned. I don't have any interest in them anyway, hahaha!
[...hm.]
You said we're heading to the Servant rooms, correct? ....Does Holmes have a room there as well?
[she fully expects him to look for Sherlock later but THAT'S OKAY!! that's their business!! so long as Moriarty doesn't try to pull off any murders in Chaldea it's fine!!]

POST-SHINJUKU CHALDEA TOUR, GO

[and at that. . . Ritsuka stops in her tracks, turning to level her gaze evenly at crime gramps]
No.
[he does but she isn't going to be the one to give the location to Moriarty]

[HE'S TOTALLY GOING TO LOOK FOR SHERLOCK LATER.]
I suspect I'll at least be given a bed, yes?
no subject
[also, uuuuuuh--]
I thought servants didn't need to sleep?
[A BEAT]
Yes, you'll be given a bed.
[they are not ANIMALS in Chaldea, please]
But I wouldn't expect quality or luxury.
no subject
Anyway, at the mention of 'needing to sleep', he just gives her a withering look.]
'Needing to' and 'Wanting to' are very different from each other, you know. I enjoy sleeping every now and then.
[He sighs, though.]
...Well, so long as it doesn't make my back act up, I should be fine.

[. . . ]
[heh]
They aren't that bad; I promise. It's just— you know.
Budget cuts?
[OR SOMETHING. Chaldea was only interested in utilitarianism, not comfort]
no subject
He nods.]
Yes, I assumed from the way this place was built that they went for whatever would be the easiest for multiple people.
Most likely I'll be able to eventually acquire furniture suited to my own needs - in my own ways, of course.
[...Grandpa are you going to go out into the real world and steal an armchair. Is that what this is.
...That smile says that's exactly what it is.]
