[Gladio sends a warm smile Ravus' way, utterly enamored with the mental picture of his lover sitting with his his face completely buried in a rare book, eyes focused on the pages and mind somewhere far away from wherever he's sitting.]

If you're planning on reading, my place has a lot of natural light. [Is he trying to bribe Ravus into possibly spending more time at his place?

Yes.] Definitely more private than the library plus I bet it's bigger than your apartment. And you know what they say- [He leans a little closer to whisper in Ravus' ear.] Bigger is better.

[He pulls back with a wink and a chuckle, heading straight for what appears to be a solid wall of green, brown, and yellow. Since the barely-trod path veers away from the apparent wall it would stand to reason that nothing more than wild and unkempt forest lay beyond.

Yet Gladio pushes one hand through the wall and pulls the strange curtain to the side.] S'just some Lucian Moss. Got thick enough that the trees grew slower so all the branches and leaves make it look like a brambly mess back here but we can get through if we duck a little.

[Another smile, this one a little softer, eyes imploring as he reaches out a hand.] Trust me, it's worth it.
