[ Genuinely everything she has just said— Spooky Empire, catacombs, necromancers— strikes him as concerning, particularly given the company Willow had admitted to keeping. He opts not to pursue it. ]

Well, I certainly appreciate the compliment. I don't often have reason to cook for company. [ It is only with Oscar's influence that he cooks so regularly at all. Regardless, he sets the milk to simmer and turns to her, interest piqued. ]

Adventure comics, I suppose? I've become something of a collector for literature from our assorted worlds.

[ Other, more ghostly and illiterate goths might not want to broach this subject with this strange, weirdly kind man. He's got some strong teacher vibes, which are deeply incompatible with anything Gideon would consider horny.

However: Gideon has never really been one to read a room. ]


Yeah, sometimes. But mostly porn.

[ She says, matter-of-factly. This is a normal thing to say as a guest in someone's house. ]

You want some? It's not exactly smart-person stuff, but there are some pretty decent articles every once in a while. Like, tips to care for your sword on a budget, and stuff like that.

[ What's left is an expression of strained politeness and a marked uncertainty as to whether or not she is joking. Is sword a euphemism? Why do indecent comics contain advice on weapons maintenance? Who is this marketed for?

(He should not explore that last thought too closely; the entire Rose-Branwen family does come to mind.)

Why does she think it would appeal to him? ]


I— no, I think I will keep to my... preferred genres. Thank you.

[ This is an interaction that is going normally. ]

[ Gideon does not seem surprised or offended at Ozpin's strained expression. It's honestly not unexpected. Old people don't read dirty magazines -- Gideon would know. She grew up on a planet full of them.

She shrugs. ]


Your loss. My friend Sextus is working on a romance novel, you could try that instead? I don't think we have a lot of folklore or whatever, except for the Tome. [ a beat, thinking. ] And the Tomb. But that's dumb.

[ screw the mummified asshole who keeps ruining Gideon's chances! ]
