No, [ Loki replies, shaking his head a little as he passes her. ] Alexandrie had a friend living here, who returned to the frontlines before I arrived. I haven't touched the stylings, really; I spend most of my coin on clothes, books, and various foodstuffs.

[ He likes Alexandrie's taste in decor, for one thing, and doesn't see why he should spend his money to fix things that aren't exactly broken. But he notes the way that Sylvie looks at it all and sighs, a little. She'd probably be more comfortable in Lowtown, which leads him to wonder if that's where she'll go, once she leaves the Gallows.

(The idea that she'd stay there, surrounded by all those people, doesn't take root. They are too similar for all of that.)

They climb the stairs where there's another series of rooms: a bedroom with an attached bathroom is where they're headed, and so Loki makes a beeline for it. There are some things set out already, bottles of various kinds with labels and written instructions on how to use them (most of which say, simply, add to hot water), heavy towels, a bathrobe, all off to the side atop of a nearby dresser. In the middle of the bathroom is the tub; large and clawfooted.

There's also a privacy screen blocking half of it from view of the door.
