...Are you saying that after seeing what Mr. Rochalizo did?

[He says, his voice withdrawn. Yes, he had thought about that. But...]

It isn't a weight. [A shake of the head. His grip tightens on the other's hands.] You won't break me. We made a promise. And I think, even after everything...it would be the best. I would rather be the one to do the deed if...I was so compelled. [...] I am made stronger knowing that I have such trust in you, my dear. So please. Don't worry.

No... I wanted to say it to you because of all the loss you've gone through this week. Talk to you about it when things were a little more... emotionally stable.

[ He plants soft kisses along Sholmes' face. Light, caring and loving. ]

I just wanted to be sure, after everything. The end is coming and even if that happens, I swear I won't leave you alone that long. I believe in everyone working together, both here and gone. So if the worst happens, I know we'll see each other again and that time, I would never let you go. We'll get our happiness, Sholmes. I swear.

[ The determination in his voice is strong and solid. There isn't a hint of hesitation. He believes they'll make it through this. He believes that their losses will come back. ]

I know that after we leave here... things won't be perfect. It'll be like a nightmare that we're waking up from. But I found my guiding star. And I'll make sure we work through all of this together when we've made our home.

[ He has to believe in this future. He refuses to believe in anything else. And he wants Sholmes to be able to believe in this future, too. ]

[greatdeduction]

I thank you for that. But I feel this is different. This would be...something to be prepared for.

[He would be ready for it. The kisses tickle - he smiles, slightly.]

You always have a way with words. It touches me in the deepest way. [He smiles - it feels so strange on his face, now, after everything, but its there, genuine. He kisses Kotetsu then, calm, sweet.] How could I do scarce else but to believe in the words of my own guiding star?

[ Kotetsu's shoulders relax a bit at the smile, releasing some tension he didn't even realize was there. He kisses Sholmes back, smiling softly back at him. ]

Maybe it's because we understand each other so well. But it makes me glad to know you can believe in me. It gives me more strength to keep going.

[greatdeduction]

I will always believe in you.

[That's the depth of trust he has for this man. To put his whole being into his hands, and know he's safe there.]

I'm glad. If you stopped going, why...I don't know what I would do with myself.

[sponsoredby]

Then we both have to keep going for each other, right?

[ Another soft kiss to him at this. ]

[greatdeduction]

But of course.

[And he kisses him back. These cute gay dads.]

Oh, is it time for your meeting? I shan't keep you.

[sponsoredby]

[ They really are cute. Kotetsu doesn't want to go, but...

Finley was just about to nudge Kotetsu about it and she gives a very pleased look at Sholmes, chuffing over that. Good detective! ]

Mm... Yeah. I can't leave them waiting long. Where do you want to meet up in a bit?

[greatdeduction]

[He'll reach down to give Finley a pat on the head, with Irene cawing happily - her girlfriend is the best, of course.]

Let's say...well, we haven't checked out the hot tubs, have we?

[sponsoredby]

[ She gladly takes the patting, looking proudly at Irene, as well. These two cuties. And a nice warm spreads through Kotetsu from Sholmes touching Finley. In return, he reaches out to gently touch Irene's cheek. Fair's fair. ]

We have not. It sounds like a perfect place to have our last date. I'll see you there.

[ One more kiss for the road before the pair starts to head off for a while. ]

[greatdeduction]

[Irene burbles, before grasping one of the other's fingers in her beak, affectionately - the warmth spreads in Sholmes at the touch, and he smiles again.]

[Time to meet up later for their date!]





[He's here, and he's. Definitely tipsy. Irene is in hare form at his feet, looking unamused.]

Goodness, it's so cold!

[sponsoredby]

[ When Kotetsu meets up with him, he's also a bit tipsy and Finley is looking at him with disdain, but immediately cheers up when she sees Irene. And, perhaps it's a careless act, but she slips into her Maine Coon form and rubs her body against Irene. Sweet love. ]

Mm, at least we can fix that.

[ Hello, dear. He comes over to immediately kiss Sholmes affectionately. He has things to talk about from the meeting, but he wants to get kisses first. ]

[greatdeduction]

Mmm.

[Is all he manages to let out before Kotetsu closes the distance - he kisses him back, clutching his cheek. Irene perks up instantly, rubbing her face against the other's lavish fur.]

[sponsoredby]

[ The kiss is deep, full of love. One arm slips around him to pull him in close, leaning his head up to keep in the kiss. BECAUSE I KEEP FORGETTING KOTETSU IS SHORTER.

Finely flicks her tail, ever so pleased with the attention from her companion. ]

[greatdeduction]

[WHY IS KOTETSU SHORTER ITS ILLEGAL]

[But he's content - his head feels fuzzy, light, as he returns the kiss readily, his other hand at the other's back. They really are doing this out here, huh.]

[Irene grooms at Finley a little, content.]

[sponsoredby]

[ They're not even in the tub. They're just making out in the cold. Okay, guys. You do you.

But he makes a soft sigh in the kiss, sinking into the feeling and nibbling on his lower lip.

Finley returns the favor. And a nose-to-nose boop. ]

[greatdeduction]

[He sighs at the nibble, hand moving from the man's cheek into his hair, keeping him close. This feels so nice. This is so nice.]

[...]



[But it is really cold.]

[He breaks it, momentarily.]

It is getting a little chilly, my dear.

[sponsoredby]

[ He sighs against his lips. ]

Mmm... Let's get stripped down for the tub, then. Should also tell you a few things.

[ It doesn't sound like bad things! Just things. Meeting things, you know. But another kiss because he can. ]

[greatdeduction]

Oh? A few things? Very well.

[He wobbles a little as he kisses the other's cheek, before drawing back.]

[What is a swimsuit. He's just stripping now. Terrible.]

[sponsoredby]

[ Honestly, the staff already hates this group and probably double for these two. Might as well continue to be awful. Kotetsu will also be stripping, but might be helping Sholmes out here and there because he enjoys stripping him, okay? ]

About the feeling of the new world, nothing bad I think, and something I want to try out next week.

[greatdeduction]

["HE ENJOYS STRIPPING HIM" KOTETSU. PLEASE.]

Something you want to try?

[A kiss to his lips, before going to the hot tub. Ooh! It really is hot! He's easing himself in.]

Do tell me all about it.

[sponsoredby]

[ Are you telling me Sholmes doesn't enjoy stripping Kotetsu? ]

Mmhmm.

[ He slips into the hot tub and slides into the spot next to Sholmes because he doesn't sit five feet apart. He slips one arm around Sholmes' shoulder as he leans to kiss his jaw. ]

I was thinking of trying to use the knife on the barrier. Try it out at curfew... Maybe I should stop an execution.

[greatdeduction]

[Looks away from his Kotetsu thirst.]

Mmm. [They are definitely gay. His hand moves to slid over the other's abdomen.] And...wait.

[He draws back, a bit alarmed.]

That would reveal yourself, wouldn't it? You could...you could be put in danger.

[sponsoredby]

[ Yeah, don't throw stones in a glass house. ]

It could. I could also use my feather to stop time for 30 seconds when I did it. No one would know I did it. I'd be the only one able to move.

[ He doesn't know if he should save that power for later, or what. But he thought about it.]

Rameel also suggested pushing things to their limit. Which... I have mixed feelings about. I don't want any of the Watchers hurt for these limits being pushed. But I could also try to hide the knife somehow.

[greatdeduction]

Yes, pushing things to their limit did land us in hot water already...

[A sigh as he nuzzles against the other's neck.]

Maybe you should ask the Watchers for their advice? What I also worry are those spectres...
