Of course!
[There's a moment of thought here.]
What if you used the paint to paint a big 'Welcome to Hadriel' banner? Then we could hang it up in the arena and all the new people would be welcomed!

Hi Delight! It was really nice to come back to your bar. I swear it's the best bar I've ever been in.
I have a request, but I'm not sure it's do-able? I know you'll probably as a lot for it....
See, where I come from there's this drug, called ecstasy. It makes people really happy for a bit, like everythinf's super okay and we're all friends. I found one pill in the bottom of my backpack, and I was wondering, if I brought it to you, could you make more of it?
It doesn't have to be a lot. And I don't want it just for myself, I wanna share it with people here. Because sometimes you just need a little pick-me-up.
It's okay if you can't, though. I just figured I'd ask.

Done and done! I'll get you that banner, no problem.
I even got a guy that'll help get some badges made, too, for the newcomers.

Yes. For...someone else. If you could make it pink, I'd be very grateful.
[Kylo knew that Hux loved ice cream. It was one of his only vices. And Kylo was trying to make this relationship work out as best he could. Getting his lover something he really enjoyed would be a good start to it.]

Hm...
I might be able to, yeah. You can bring it in and we'll try it out!

Aww, that's so helpful!
You're the best. Your supplies will be in my temple!

Pink ice cream! Got it!
[And then there's a pause.]
What are you going to do for me in return?

okay! Your bar or your temple, ma'am? And I'll bring it to ya inna minute
Uh...make someone happy?
[That's what a god like Delight would enjoy, right? He has no idea how to give proper homage or anything like that.]
My temple!
I'll need a payment as well. If I can make it work.

Works for me!
[Heyyy, it's nice when other people solve her problems for her.]
Go on! I'll have your things when you get back.

[He feels foolish to creep into the temple under the cover of night. But lately that feeling of being observed and followed has been grown stronger. His meeting with Ravine had brought out the paranoia in a stronger form, and the next few days had only intensified it. It's only in Tranquility's temple that it fades, but within minutes of strolling outside it would return. A niggling warning at the back of his head. A breeze that slyly whispered into his ear.
But he creeps out here anyway. If he's being denied his sleep, then he might as well continue with his research and find out as much as he can about the gods; he's delayed long enough thanks to this stupid competition. Danse finds the temple, stops at the threshold and like all the others, he knocks on the door. One hand is tucked into a pocket, curled around something inside.]
Delight. My name is Danse. Can I come in?

Alright, I'll be along in just a bit
What payment would you like in return? Or do you know just yet?

[So, Delight's cool. Chris really likes Delight--Hope too, and Tranquility's quickly rising the ranks--and so he feels pretty bad for her about the bar, especially after reading some of Tranquility's replies on his post. He's just not totally sure how to help, so why not ask her directly?]
Hey, Delight. I heard about the bar, and I'm sorry someone was such a dick to you. Is there some way me or the others can help? I'm sure the twins and Em would be in.
We were already thinking we'd set the coffee cart up at your temple; will having there help give you a boost?

[Delight peeks out of the doorway, curious to see who might be knocking at such a late hour- but when she recognizes Danse, her expression brightens into a grin and she beckons him inside. There are golden threads woven into her hair tonight, her outfit simple and bright in a way that's somehow more ostentatious than the other gods have appeared, but more carefree and joyful as well.
She sets her hands on her hips, the earlier smile still tugging at her lips.]
What brings you here?

Hmm, maybe you should make other people happy! You like animals, right? What if you taught them tricks and put on a little show! Everyone loves cute animals!!!
Why do you want to help?
[Forgive her, she has a reason to be apprehensive.]
[Forgive her, she has a reason to be apprehensive.]
[...he'll probably never get used to the way the gods pop in and out of thin air. Startled, his shoulders hitch up in shock when Delight materializes out of nowhere, but the shock subsides, and when a bright smile and a gesture invites him into the temple he accepts.
Still apprehensive, he follows her inside, bracing himself for the emotions that are to come. And sure enough there's the bubbly sensation in his chest, one that fills him with a pleasant warmth. His lips twitch, tempted to pull a smile.
But he pulls back. Bites his bottom lip and kills it before it spreads. Reminds himself that this delight is not real, that it's all artificially induced because he's in the god's presence.
The disarming smile and dazzling outfit is fitting for a god called Delight. Danse only wishes he could return her a similar greeting in a genuine manner, but honestly? Feeling this happy only hurts because it dregs out the memories, reminds him of a time when he had all the reasons to smile and laugh and love.]
Thanks for inviting me in. I'm a relative newcomer to this city and I've heard differing opinions on the gods, some of it possibly subject to some bias. So, I'd like to speak with you myself and form my own opinion on the kind of person you are.

[Awwww, Delight. :c]
Because I've been here long enough to be pretty sure you and Hope really have been trying to help everyone this whole time, and not just because of the whole emotions thing. And you've always been super nice to us, too.
So, yeah. You totally don't deserve someone being a jerk to you, especially to the extent of blowing up the bar, so I want to help.

Sorry about what happened to your bar. Are you okay?
[Yeah, this feels a little awkward. But when she did ask Tranquility if there was anything she could do, she meant it.]

Of course.
[She takes a step back, giving him a little space- though the urge toward joy doesn't fade and it's ever-present as long as he's in her temple. Still, her expression dulls a little and the smile goes a little wistful, maybe even self conscious as she moves back toward the altar and leans herself up against it.]
I'll admit that I'm not my best right now, but I'll answer any questions you may have.

Well... the coffee cart would be a good start. I remember making that for you guys, it was really nice.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I don't think I am.
[Ayyy lmao. Someone definitely isn't sad or bitter at all.]
[Ayyy lmao. Someone definitely isn't sad or bitter at all.]
I'm not hurt.
[Which is probably the most important thing.]
But it was mean.
