It's my only piece of decor. My apartment would be so depressing without it.

[imaginist]

That could be changed.

[rainbowfish]

What did you have in mind?

[imaginist]

You're utilitarian. But you also like art. You could replace some of your furniture with nicer pieces.

[rainbowfish]

It's furniture. Its job isn't to look nice.

[imaginist]

Incorrect. Audaciously so. Your furniture is the first thing you see when you wake up. It's what you return to at night. Its ugliness sets the tone for the entire day.

[rainbowfish]

Wow, I did not realize my furniture was ruining my life so aggressively.

[imaginist]

You don't actually have to do anything here. Simply give me permission to replace objects in your apartment.

[rainbowfish]

The fish is non-negotiable.

[imaginist]

It wouldn't be you and Poet without the grotesque kitsch. But you'll see, it'll be a home worthy of two working professionals not suffering from any serious mood disorders.

[rainbowfish]

I'd also like to emphasize the word replace. I can have different things. I can't have more things.

[imaginist]

Understood. What if you don't realise it's an addition and not a replacement?

[rainbowfish]

Careful or I'll demand an itemized bill.

[imaginist]

I'll behave. You're already letting me get away with quite a bit.

[rainbowfish]

Do let me pay for it, though.

Raine/Enoch

[imaginist]

I think you're much better off not knowing what the price tag will be.

Raine/Enoch

[rainbowfish]

This is exactly my concern. I don't want to own a sofa I'm afraid to sit on.

Raine/Enoch

[imaginist]

Mohair velvet is an exceptionally durable material for sofas. It'll stand up well to yours and Poet's wild bachelor lifestyles.

Raine/Enoch

[rainbowfish]

That's not how I'd describe what's happening in here, but sure.

These couches cost too much.

Raine/Enoch

[imaginist]

Personally, I would never be bored if I had a roommate as intriguing as yours.

You like to be spoiled. Let me.

Raine/Enoch

[rainbowfish]

Never bored, but sometimes I find a partially flayed Furby in my kitchen.

There is a small difference in scale here. But if you're sure. [...] Money's just weird for me sometimes.

Raine/Enoch

[imaginist]

Ah, but how do they do Furby surgery? You've never wanted to watch?

I suppose I don't have the most normal relationship with money either. From the opposite side. [...] I get carried away. But I can attempt restraint.

Raine/Enoch

[rainbowfish]

No. You can never unsee that.

I like that you get carried away even if I am weird about money.

Raine/Enoch

[imaginist]

Have you ever considered moving out?

[...] You do a terrible job of discouraging my excesses, you know.

Raine/Enoch

[rainbowfish]

Not really. [...] I spend enough time at your place to get a break from Poet's antics anyway.

I could put up more of a fight, but I know you're going to win in the end anyway.
