Exactly. Now you're getting it. It's the same when I teleport, it'd be more correct to say I warp space around me. But the end result is teleportation, so. Easier to simply call it that.
[He waves a hand and dismisses all but the chalkboard as he continues to stare. One, perhaps two equations he could have managed. Three? That is going to need to some time.]
I think yours is the more versatile power honestly. You could probably float if you liked. Or make space infinite around you like a shield if you were dodging any projectiles.
A lack of Creation almost. You utilize what is available.
[ Oh, wow. It's his turn to be taken aback, even if he honestly shouldn't be surprised — Hades is generally affectionate, after all. But as usual that in combination with the words is a critical hit, even if he gives him a small smile ]
I take it you're suitably impressed.
My warping is instant and wouldn't last enough for that. And there's the problem of my lack of sufficent energy, of course.
Though maybe that'll be something to try once I start using aether properly.
More times than not I am impressed, but if I said it every time would it not lose its meaning?
It is different. As I said inverted. It will take a little time to change my way of thinking. Though it is no less spectacular, and truthfully I'm looking forward to the puzzle it presents.
With access to aether beyond your own, more possibilities will be open to you. I'm quite interested to see where it goes. Though I do believe you and I deserve some actual rest tonight. Don't you agree?
We did make enough progress for tonight. And I plan on providing you with an extra amount of homework as soon as I wake up, so. Resting properly is not a bad idea.
[He doesn't even ask before he teleports them to his office in Amaurot and leads him down a hallway to a spare room when he spent far too long of a night working.
He laughs as something comes to mind.]
At least I didn't cause you to write a wellness journal. He still keeps it up to date by the way.
I wonder which will win out first. His stubbornness to keep writing in it. Or his boredom that it is wasting his time. But enough about the old man. The plan was to rest.
[ he holds him a bit tighter at that, partly as proof of his presence right there and now, and partly because every time he thinks for too long of how important they are to each other he's inevitably reminded of how likely it is that they'll have to say goodbye sooner or later — if they're lucky. If they're not? One of them will just disappear.
But for now, he's content in indulging in that physical closeness and affection, and he lets his eyes fall shut ]

Re: 258 Night
That said. Of course I'll write it down for you.

Re: 258 Night
Sounds like a plan. ... thanks for being here. As usual.
Re: 258 Night
Always, my friend. I doubt I will ever tire of your company and the joy it brings.
Re: 258 Night
Even when I give you homework? Now that's love.
Re: 258 Night
Can't even pretend. Both of us are long past that.

Not pulling any punches, I see.
Re: 258 Night
Though do not discount those words were probably true once.
Re: 258 Night
... But I have to say I'm happier, like this. Not that I ever thought it possible.
Re: 258 Night
[Resting his chin on top of his head.]
I am glad for your happiness, and I cannot put into words how much you have enriched my own life.

... Goodnight, Hades.

Goodnight, Five Hargreeves.
