[To be absolutely fair to Zagreus, this room is much cleaner than his bedroom back home. For one, he doesn't have nearly as many books, only a few secretly taken from the library that are stacked up on one shelf. For another, he doesn't have as many clothes, so the dirty laundry strewn about the room is really just one pair of cargo pants, socks, and a red polo shirt placed on one of the backs of the chairs. And finally, besides the box of knick knacks, everything else he owns is stuffed in his duffel bag, which is mostly just the Twin Fists, Stygius, and the Pierced Butterfly, carefully tucked under the bed so they won't be stepped on. (The Cthonic Knot is dutifully bound around his wrist, as he'd promised Than to wear it after their fight with Kolokifi, and it had hardly come off his wrist since.)
So when Thanatos comes in and remarks on the mess, Zagreus is absolutely taken aback.]
... I-I was going to put them away, honestly! But then I remembered that you might have some things, still, and I wanted to make sure you had space to put them up first... and to be honest, I got excited thinking about you and I living together now, and thought that maybe you'd be happy about it, too...
[Zag looks genuinely disappointed, his hand reaching out for Than's to hold onto it. Though he's not meaning to pull out the puppy eyes, they are definitely happening. Puppy eyes engaged.
Cerbie, meanwhile, has stolen one of the blankets and tugged it under the bed to make a little nest-fort for him and Mort! He yips quietly from under the bed for Mort to come join him.]
