Yes. What to do after would be the trouble. Perhaps everyone donating a little blood, it'd be quite a lot if you had just some from many. No one would refuse you.

....Your people really are soft.

None would see another suffer. Half sacrificed themselves willingly so the other half could live on. I myself would have offered myself had the convocation not needed me in Zodiark's summoning.

Of course they would all combine in an effort to accommodate you. Together it would be no burden.

...It's hard to imagine.

[But that reminds him of the thing Noah said again and he knows it's not a good time to talk about it.

Instead he just looks at Lahabrea for a moment before deciding he's not above initiating a hug right now, he can't talk about it but he can not be concerned with being a big man who doesn't need anyone! So he pulls him in, into both arms, trying to mind the rail. They don't need to fall over a stupid mistake.]

[What. What? Hey? He's not Emet-Selch with 500 squishy soft feelings he is OLD and Dignified (he's old, he's never been dignified in his life, he's full of 500 squishy feelings).

He's frozen in drunk confusion and tsun for a moment then just wraps his arms around Vergil and leans on him. Not too hard, they really don't want to fall off the balcony.]

Hmph. I wouldn't want to die. It's just how we were. If you could help another, you did, no question.

[Yeah, how's it feel huh? Sucks, doesn't it. Being emotionally terrorised and held when you don't even know what's going on sure is hard to take. Imagine.]

Well where I'm from, if you could kill another, you did.

[And he'll just pretend that's the reason he's having feelings.]

[It's terrible. So terrible he's relaxing into it, grip firm on Vergil's clothes.]

Well. We're both far from home so we'll just have to make it up. But should you ever need blood do let me know.

... You're quite the fast learner.

[He laughs, lightly.]

I don't think my body works that way here. But thanks.

And of course I'm a fast learner. I'm not an idiot. No matter what you think.

You never know. But I would assume you are firmly in the normal mortal category, as are most of us.

I said you were a fool not an idiot. Anyway you still are a fool, intelligent as you may be.

[He pulls back from the hug, grabs onto the railing to steady himself.]

It seems to be my type, fools. I suppose I fit in.

You definitely fit in. You're the leading fool, the world's foremost fool scholar in...foolery.

[Just conversationally.]

...Is your common law still in effect?

Should be.

You wanna push me again?

[He grumbles.]

Not if you call me on it.

Okay I'll pretend it's not happening.

[And he just turns his back to Lahabrea, nothing going on here.]

[He pats his shoulder.]

The moment's passed. Besides, I don't want to see you fall really. Too sobering. Even if you would be fine.

[He sighs.]

You're so soft. I think it's funny.

I know you do. I would push you off just to make you happy.

[Wow.... His heart is full, he'd push him even though it's not his thing. He pats Lahabrea's shoulder back.]

You're a good friend.

[He's a great friend!]

Shall I?

Nah, only if you want to, it's not fun otherwise.

I admit I would like to see how your common law extends. And I would let you have to joy of being pushed off a roof by your dearest friend. Though I cannot say I understand your interests, your family in general does have such physical ways of being affectionate.

You want to experiment, with my life!

[He laughs!]

You're not any better.

Only because I'm reasonably certain you will come to no harm.

[He pats Vergil's arm.]

I'd be extremely distressed if you did, after all. Thus my hesitance.

....Also hugs are much better than stabbing, you know.

Reasonably.

[But the danger is what makes it fun, so he's not complaining.]

Hmmm...stabbing's probably better. You haven't tried it.

Reasonably. If you happened to come to harm I would be most upset.

And I have been stabbed before, you know. And done my share of stabbing. I don't see the appeal.
