[ It hasn't entirely occurred to Zelda yet that since Lilith lacks a home with earthly trappings, those types of hobbies aren't exactly convenient for her anymore. Thinking of her residing in Hell is still more of an abstract thought than a reality.
She frowns a bit, absentmindedly conjuring her cigarette holder and an accompanying cigarette, bringing it to her lips to drag at it thoughtfully. ]
All admirable passions, indeed, but hardly unusual for a witch. [ She leans in slightly. ] I daresay it might be in both our interests to consider widening our horizons a bit.
( she looks a little amused by the suggestions because if anything, if pushed there was only one of those things she could really imagine zelda doing )
Perhaps that's something to figure out.
( and she drinks again. lilith's certainly in no rush to do it, not when she doesn't have too much free time currently. hell kept her busy )
Though-- ( she pauses, thinking carefully about this )
There's much the world also has, things outside of Greendale. Some of those places-- ( she trails off a little, letting zelda catch on. it's less the i want to show you the world that adam offered her but-- visiting some of the world's beauty with someone she cared for would be a different experience )
( but yes. lilith's seen the world but never had the opportunity to enjoy it. zelda's the one that she wants to do that with, to take her time to find passion-- )
( lilith chuckles, a slightly more wicked smile creeping into her expression for when she replies she's not speaking english, selecting another language that she's certain zelda would know. italian )
It would be-- enjoyable. Indulgent, perhaps.
( does she need to do more? she knows your love of languages, my dear and she is the perfect one to speak them with )
[ Zelda closes her eyes as their foreheads touch, allowing herself a slow moment to bask in how happy all this makes her. She hasn't felt this way in a long, long time. If ever. ]
Perhaps I should go find Hilda and Sabrina. Allow them some time to prepare for company.
( ah. being left in someone's home, waiting for them is not a feeling that lilith is used to. which means that her comfort-- roams slightly, moving to get herself a drink as she waits.
when zelda does return there's a slight on her lips )
You mean, informing my family that the Queen of Hell and my lover--who are one in the same--is waiting patiently and alone in our sitting room for us to entertain her?
( lilith had no idea what that could be, she's not often been a house guest but she had no doubts that between the spellman's they'd all learn something )
The surprise of a guest is-- enough without the thought of who the guest may be.
( and honestly considering that this was just a friendly dinner and not anything official she'd be fine with just a normal idnner. though lilith knew that hilda would brush that idea away. everyone always did with a queen )
I think familiarity will ease that. Sabrina is already comfortable with you. Hilda just needs a bit more exposure.
[ She reaches out to take Lilith's hand, entangling their fingers together. ]
I would endeavor for us to think of you as... something not quite a queen while you're here with us. Perhaps it's best if we leave our titles at the door.
( she hopes so too, letting the sentiment be returned physically rather than verbally. there's a soft brush of lips, hands squeezing.
though they end up interrupted, hilda walking in to let them know that dinner would be ready soon.
she doesnt jump apart from her, perhaps making hilda feel a little awkward by their proximity, the second light kiss before she does slowly part from her )
I suppose we should begin.
( dinner, some drinks. and all of the fun antics that came with a family dinner.
after dinner once they've sat and chatted hilda nudges sabrina away to do her homework, busying herself in her solarium, giving the two lovers their privacy again. and with nothing calling her back to hell she has the option of staying the night )

no subject
( she sounds a little intrigued at what zelda might suggest, the prospect of spending more time with her very appealing )
What did you have in mind?
no subject
Well, there's knitting. Or sewing, if one is more inclined. I've heard board games can be rather enjoyable.
[ Needing to widen horizons indeed. ]
no subject
Perhaps that's something to figure out.

Do you wish to take me on a whirlwind tour of the world, Lilith?
no subject
( but yes. lilith's seen the world but never had the opportunity to enjoy it. zelda's the one that she wants to do that with, to take her time to find passion-- )
There's much that you'd enjoy.
no subject
[ She hasn't had much time to travel these days. But that is something she'd like to change, especially with the right company. ]
no subject
It would be-- enjoyable. Indulgent, perhaps.
( does she need to do more? she knows your love of languages, my dear and she is the perfect one to speak them with )
no subject
I do so enjoy it when we indulge each other.
[ She brushes Lilith's hair from her shoulder, wrapping a lock around her finger. ]
But I believe I invited you over for dinner.
no subject
( it's not italian this time, lilith switching to french, giving her some options.
but she knows why zelda invited her specifically here, leaning in to kiss her instead, resting her forehead to hers when they part )
But-- another time. I wouldn't deny you this.
no subject
Perhaps I should go find Hilda and Sabrina. Allow them some time to prepare for company.
no subject
so she kisses her again, long and slow before then nudging her as they part )
Go on.
no subject
Make yourself comfortable. I'll be back shortly.
[ And she heads off to find her family, and hopefully entertain Lilith with the most normal evening that she can. ]
no subject
when zelda does return there's a slight on her lips )
I assume that it all went smoothly?
no subject
[ Zelda laughs as she sits down next to her. ]
Hilda is having an absolute fit.
no subject

no subject
( though maybe zelda was right, maybe all they needed was familiarity. her thumb brushes over zelda's hand, her gaze stays on her )
But-- it's one night. We'll make it work.
no subject
[ Zelda leans in towards her. ]
I do hope.
