Has that door always been there? [ Dorian asks, as he follows John. It's entirely possible that it has: they've mostly hung out in his room, after all. But he follows John, not really hiding the curiosity in his voice. ]
[ Which is when he opens the door to reveal the room inside: a den carefully designed for nothing but being comfy and cozy, for enjoying music and movies and each other. There's a conversation pit to one side, slightly raised to make it easier for Arthur and almost like a giant hang out nest full of cushions. There's couches and slouchy seats, all the bookshelves in the walls to keep the space easily walkable, with a record player and a TV and a sound system in easy reach. The shelves have all kinds of albums and books and there's even some paintings up. The general color scheme is autumnal and warm: golds and reds and deep purple.
And on a shelf near the conversation pit, there's a little cheese and fruit plate. ]
[ As Dorian looks around the room, he lets out an amused little laugh. Nothing mean, just the amused chuckle of a man who's tickled pink by what he's seeing. ]
You've redecorated! It's amazing.
[ He instantly makes a beeline to the bookshelves, looking things over as he points out, ] I'll lend you some of the books I like so that you'll have something to read when bored.

Come to 213 when you have a moment. I want to show you something!

Re: a few days after the flood
Hullo! John! I'm assuming you're in!
Re: a few days after the flood
[ John is in the main room, and he's cleaned up the kitchen in the meanwhile so there's no sign of his Terrible Dastardly plot. All the same. ]
I wanted to show you something. Follow me.
[ To the door of the room that Dorian's never been to. ]

Re: a few days after the flood
What's wrong with the books I have?
...other than that you didn't suggest them.
[ That last bit is mostly teasing. ]
Re: a few days after the flood
Re: a few days after the flood
Also I made you food.
Re: a few days after the flood
I am also more than happy to eat your food. What did you make?
Re: a few days after the flood
...apparently it's supposed to look burnt on top.
Re: a few days after the flood
I'm polite in that way.
