If I can manage it, I will get Black to cook for our wedding. Though I wonder what bribe I would have to offer. He might have shown a single concern the other day, bless him.

Black showed concern for you? Are you sure he wasn't under some weird effect?

He can care, and care deeply. There is one in his memories who seems to contain all of his affection. Though to what end, I'm not sure. I doubt he's human.

And perhaps he was, but it seemed rather him. He could have kept walking but decided to assist in helping expediate me to unconsciousness.

There's someone in his memories he cares for. And it isn't a cat?

I think he probably just wanted to knock you out.

Indeed. And not a cat. I wonder if I erred in using the word 'cared'. He has great interest them. A bit of protectiveness. To what end I wonder.

[He laughs.]

Probably. Perhaps I was an easy target because he knew it wouldn't ruffle feathers. But he definitely has your unit's trait of stubbornness.

He's also just as much of a known it all asshole so he got other traits too.

A true statement.

[He'll busy himself getting down bowls and spoons.]

Would you like something alcoholic?

[ he seems to be thinking about it, and then ]

Well. I suppose Fox isn't here anymore so there's no harm in drinking inside the dorms.

I think with how the last few events have been, he'd forgive you this once.

[And since there is always coffee in Taisho, he's going to make a pair of these. Does it go with the soup? Arguably not.]

Once I molt off this layer of burnt skin, which was lovely by the way and an excellent distraction, I do intend to take us both on a little dream vacation. Perhaps I'll even throw in a bit of studying.

[ he's going to take one and then just go sit on Emet's lap, one arm around his neck while the other holds the glass ]

It has been a while since I practiced the arcane and you practiced space-time manipulation. We might take the chance now.

I'm glad you had fun at the beach.

[He can't help but be endeared, lacing his fingers around his waist.]

With space, at least I feel as if I understand the concept. Time, however, ...

... freezing temperatures and acorns, was it? It sounds like an advanced lecture from Lahabrea.

You're right. Lahabrea would have a field day with my dad.

But yes, "Time travel is akin to descending into the freezing depths, and re-emerging as an acorn."

Then a date we'll have. Practicing spatial arcane abilities and time travel for both. You still need to master the latter. And with a twist thrown in, of course. Yes, I think I will know just how to do this. Yes. Give me some time to prepare.

[ he can't help but laugh at Emet's reaction ]

Now you're in full scheming mode. Looks charming on you, by the way.

Everything looks charming on me. You are completely infatuated. By my own actions, can I ever make you upset anymore?

[He says with the most cheeky grin as he pats his leg lightly before settling his hands back clasped together in Five’s lap.]

I'd chide you for being cocky but unfortunately, you're right. I'm completely infatuated and I'd find you charming under all circumstances.

Though maybe there are things that would upset me still. If you offered me tea, for example.

Or terrible coffee. Either would be giving Mr. Pennycrumb my spot on the bed.

But perhaps if I behave myself, I could earn the chance of you singing again.

That was a special occasion.

[ he leans in to kiss his cheek ]

But I could consider a second performance if it'd help you with the sounds.

[He tuts.]

But you’ve let my mind run wild with possibilities. You can hardly take that away.

[He smiles at the kiss. Endeared as always.]

Though, more seriously, it did help tremendously. All the rest faded into the background and I could focus on just that.

I'm glad it did. To be honest I got the idea from you. Since you're always keeping flowers for me.

I don’t think I realized it had as much of an effect until your ideal illusion, but ever am I glad it eased at least somewhat.

[He squeezes him just slightly.]

Time will heal both of our wounds especially if we are so considerate to fill the space with good memories, smells, and sounds.

But thank you. It truly did help tremendously in case there were doubts.

Then I will think of something to sing for you that is maybe a little less old fashioned. Though I doubt that matters to you.

I rather liked the elegance of your tune, but you are correct. It does not. You are not the only one that is thoroughly charmed after all. Here you are, looking after my needs.

[ he takes a sip from his drink and then places it down before he kisses Emet's cheek again ]

Well, that is the point of marriage, isn't it. Besides. I'm finding that I enjoy being able to take care of you.

I thought the point of marriage was to parade you partner to make other jealous, complain loudly for the other to shut the curtains when the dawn comes too soon, and perhaps have breakfast in bed from time to time. Have I been wrong all this time?

As for taking care of me, you are doing a remarkably good job of it. Though you have been for [he has to check the date] 138 days give or take a few.
