Valour 5: I keep wondering exactly how I managed to make such a good impression
Valour 5: But yes, I'd like you to come. I'm half considering buying at least one memory and having you around would make that less troublesome.

Hades: You also wonder how you managed to capture my heart so fully.
Hades: The one area you lack self confidence, your charming nature.
Hades: I will head over presently.

[And there will be a knock on Taisho’s door.]

[ once he's there and he opens the door he'll reach for his hand and kiss it ]

Hey there, beautiful.

[He smiles fondly.]

You are in a mood. How delightful. If I had known that would make you so content, I would have reached out to Wild City earlier.

Well. It's not just because the outing was nice. As bad as things have been in general, it's been nice meeting my family again and having the chance to catch up.

Kaguya is back too, though she's on a different Unit. That does make things easier.

I was going to ask how it felt to have all your siblings back, but now I have my answer.

Kaguya even? How wonderful. I will tell her hello.

And don’t think I’m complaining. ‘Tis a good look on you. I’m quite glad you actually feel up to getting more memories.

Admittedly I was terrified at first. But just being together got rid of most of my worries.

And since you seem willing to indulge me today as well. Carry me to my room. Before I take a memory let's enjoy the onsen together.

Ever am I glad. Though I had little doubts it would naturally come to you. All of you.

[He just laughs as he picks him up and twirls them both for good measure before heading to his room.]

Truthfully of all the upgrades the luxurious baths are what I’m finding myself drawn to.

I'm not surprised to hear that. But considering there is always a starry sky out there, I do hope you'll be partial toward this one.

I will love them both, but more than that I am with you.

[He does put him down when he gets to his room, but he does kneel so he can hold him close for a moment.]

My fondest memories here are with you.

[ oh no. How dare he be so sweet. He'll wrap his arms around him to keep him close, and then leans in so he can kiss his cheek ]

This place really wouldn't be the same without you for me either.

[He trails his fingers over his back just barely. To cherish and remember this moment.

Then he stands and puts on a smug grin.]

Are we taking the memory in the water? Or is that activity before?

The activity is for before, just to make sure I'll be relaxed.

[ he reaches for his hand so he can hold it and tug him with him ]

There's changes of clothes for you in the wardrobe, if you're worried.

I am not. We both might state it as an empty threat to have the other return to their dorm wet or bare, but we do plan for every eventuality.

[He squeezes his fingers and follows him. He does really enjoy the new space. Not only is Vergil near, but the small touches of what Five wants does warm his heart.]

Was there more than the feeling of readiness that spurred on taking another memory?

[ He'll take care to lead him outside, where the stars are perpetually shining up above the private onsen, and then take care of undressing so he can go into the water ]

Allison couldn't go into details but I get the feeling there's more apocalypse to wait for us after what I remember.

My heartfelt sympathies.

[He cups his cheeks and kisses his forehead before slipping into the water.]

You will endure though it will not be easy. Not the most comforting words to hear, but do not doubt in your ability.

It is going to be difficult. But knowing my family is together for once and that I have you by my side helps.

Hope has carries you thus far. Let it guide you but further.

You know better than I that you cannot change what lies in your memories. At least, not in the moment.

But you are here to relax. So take a deep breathe.

[He does take his dominant hand and begins to massage it.]

[ there's a smile at that, fond and charmed as always, but he'll shift his hold so he can instead tug Emet's hand toward himself and kiss it, as he always does ]

Well it's lucky then that the best way for me to relax is to take care of you and spoil you a little. To be honest I did want to be the one to give you a massage today.

Is that your goal? To provide me with a functioning back. I daresay it has gotten better in the past few months.

[His cheeks turn slightly pink even though it is hard to see in the light. From the gesture and just the intimacy of these moments.]

Pamper me if such is your whim. I will hardly say no to it or to you.

[ he always enjoys seeing him blush. Not just because he's cute when he gets embarrassed, but also because it feels nice to be able to get that reaction out of him, to make him feel appreciated. ]

Good. Maybe by the time we're gone from here you'll start having a better posture. Turn around then.

[He just shakes his head and complies.]

I will be shorter. When I am able. I do hope you are prepared to carry me.

Oh I will absolutely carry you. I can hardly wait.

[ he brings his hands to his shoulder to start massaging him, but leans in to kiss between his shoulder and neck first ]

[He makes a soft sound at the kiss, and well, the rest.]

I do need to get you to walk on my back again.

Have I praised you for how attentive you are? I should if I have been lack at it.

Have I been more attentive than usual? If anything I feel I'm not paying enough attention to you.
