[ What better way to spend points for a victory than to buy booze? Absolutely none. So here he is ready to get wasted ]

All right if you've got anything to say, you guys have 30 minutes to tell me anything of importance. After that I definitely won't be sober.

[He sets him down, after a messy kiss to the temple, as he gets a couple short glasses of water.]

I can give you something stronger and tastes better. One of the services I provide.

[time5kip]

And here I thought you were going to make me talk before all that. I can do with something stronger, that doesn't taste like shit.

[firstworldproblem]

I was getting there.

[He kneels down and gives him a glass of whisky.]

If you want to tell me your woes, your worries, I am here to listen. Even if just getting them off your chest is enough. But sometimes the best way to combat a bad memory is with a good one.

And if you don't tell me today, I will simply corner you tomorrow.

[time5kip]

[ just going to rest his head on his shoulder at that, and then place a kiss on his neck, soft and gentle ]

It's not worries or woes. But it did hit pretty much everything in the bad memories department, and it had been a while since that happened. I could ignore it while I was in the game, but after dying, well. That only made it worse.

[firstworldproblem]

[He rests his arms around his waist just to ensure he knows he's there.]

I do hope you never get 'used' to death. It is something I would spare you, if I could. But enjoy my company and your drink. Burning it all away wouldn't be the worst idea.

Cannibalism is rather new to you after all.

[time5kip]

Not too new actually. I was in Absinthe's heart.

[ finally taking that glass he offered him, and drinking it pretty much all in one go ]

I'm just tired.

[firstworldproblem]

Almost new.

[He refills his glass and just keeps an arm around his waist.]

Then let me pamper you until you are so fed up with it you simply fall asleep.

[time5kip]

That might not take too long.

... Thanks for coming. I know I should have called you immediately, but I don't exactly consider this an emergency.

[firstworldproblem]

[He kisses his hand.]

I trust you, my dear Five Hargreeves, to know your limits. And to know when to call on me. But do remember, visiting you is never a chore. Quite the opposite.

[time5kip]

I love you too much to think you'd come to me out of obligation, or that you'd think me as a burden. But you know. I still get stubborn sometimes.

[firstworldproblem]

I am rather charmed by your stubbornness. Keep it.

[Tugging him into the garden with the sakura tree.]

But I missed your feats of valor, as it were. I'm sure you gave those zombies what was coming. Let me guess, you picked a ranged and a melee weapon. A gun and an axe perhaps.

[time5kip]

[ he's enjoying just being carried, honestly ]

Close. I picked a shotgun and an axe. But unfortunately my feats of valor were a rather limited. Maybe you're right, I need some training.

[firstworldproblem]

[He tucks a sakura blossom into his hair as he sits under the tree with him, keeping him close at all times.]

I was given .... [he has to count] ... three of those exploding glass bottles. An unfair advantage, I would guess. Vergil and Caeli did enjoy themselves, well, until Caeli unfortunately did not make it, but I believe the exercise was good for them.

[time5kip]

Three Molotovs? That's overkill. What did you do to charm the runners like that?

At this point I feel like not making it was a better outcome for Caeli. You know, compared to seeing you die instead.

[firstworldproblem]

I did nothing but get chased by more than a half dozen large zombies at every turn. Only near the end did we even approach culling their number.

Well, he's hiding his feelings. Caeli. As he always does. But it is probably kinder. I was just hoping he and Vergil did enjoy the fight they so desperately crave.

[time5kip]

They probably did, Vergil even more so. This was a good occasion to let loose - the enemies were already dead after all.

[firstworldproblem]

Yes, and I am happy for them.

But now I would like to focus all of my attention on you. While you are drinking would you like me to tell you stories, give you a massage, or perhaps I could annoy you until you laughed.

[time5kip]

He did ask me to wait for him so we could drink together, so I don't think you're wrong. I guess for us humans death still is difficult to get used to.

[firstworldproblem]

[He reaches up and ruffles his hair.]

I would never want you to get used to it. I imagine the slipping, the loss of control, the fleeting moment of wondering if you'll open your eyes again is terrifying.

[He brushes his thumb over his cheek.]

But in the end, you are mine. No matter where your soul resides, I will find it.

[time5kip]

[ it's not the first time they promise something like that to each other, and yet every time Emet does, it never fails to reassure him. There's something incredibly comforting about knowing that even in death, he would find him ]

My moon and stars. Always lighting the dark sky for me.

[firstworldproblem]

[He leans down to kiss him properly more passionately than is appropriate for his current body.]

I did say I loved you in all forms, that you are mine in all forms, corporeal or not.

[time5kip]

[ he'll get absolutely no complaints for that, and of course he's returning the kiss ]

I'd still prefer to keep opening my eyes and see you next to me after all that. Though not dying at all is preferable.

[firstworldproblem]

My preferences run along a similar vein. But I am always here for both your woes and your happiness, just as you are for me.

But I could practice hand to hand combat with you in dreams. Though perhaps another night since you have plans for this evening.

[time5kip]

My intention of getting drunk aside I think today I'd rather have something a little softer. Fighting can wait tomorrow.

[firstworldproblem]

Would you like me to sing to you for a change?
