[forgottenmercy]

Especially for, ah, her.

[sancrimony]

Mm.

[ looking down at his cup, for a moment ]

. . .

I don't remember much of my own mother either, but - it's curious. Uhm . . .

. . .

We're certainly not - from the same world, or from the same family, I'm sure, but - my mother . . .

Amaranth-san - she looks like her.

[forgottenmercy]

...that is, ah...[trails off for a moment.] ...curious. I, ah, wonder...

[trails off again, considering.]

...does she, ah, know?

[sancrimony]

[ taking a moment before he gives a nod, quiet ]

We've spoken about the matter. It seems - mm, the situation is confusing enough that. . .

[ with a pause, as he tries to find the words for this ]

. . . It seems her heart is big enough to care for more than one child, here - . . .

. . . Is that alright?

[forgottenmercy]

[immediately, gentle but firm] Of course it is alright. [why would it not be alright?] If that is, ah, what both of you wish, then it is alright.

[sancrimony]

. . . My own mother is. . .

[ softly, quieter and quieter as he speaks ]

She most certainly - passed away, most likely in a manner most gruesome, so it is difficult for me to . . .

It is difficult not to feel my own heart pulled by yours - but I don't want to overstep any boundaries. So . . .

[forgottenmercy]

...I am, ah, sorry about your mother. [very quiet.] ...you would not, ah, be overstepping my boundaries.

[sancrimony]

[ his hands find themselves on his lap, held to each other tightly. even if, dances on his tongue - even if he's the reason why she's dead?

but his throat seals shut to the words that play on his lips, and he takes a long moment to swallow them down before he says, ]

. . . It's really alright?

[ barely a whisper, strained out like it's painful, while at the same time holding the tone of a child's, asking for permission - no, for comfort ]

[forgottenmercy]

[leans forward to wrap cool arms around Lucifel's shoulders, comfortingly.] It's really alright. I promise.

[sancrimony]

M - mm . . .

[ BZZZT

picking his head up, blinking out the moisture from his eyes ]

S-sorry . . . Ah, time is up -

Thank you, Ani-ue . . .

[forgottenmercy]

[headpats him, just as he stands up.] You are, ah, welcome. I hope the rest of this, ah, goes well for you.

[sancrimony]

[ with a nod, scrubbing his face ]

- please, ah, have a nice time. . .

[forgottenmercy]

I will, ah, try.

You, ah, as well.
