[ He's glad to hear this. He trusts Sholmes with every fiber of himself. It may have only been a short while, but they've lived through so much together in that time it feels like he's been there all along.

His hands shift from being wrapped around Sholmes to rest them both on his face. ]

I also want to see him happy. But I think you're right. I don't think either of us could provide that. I hope this helps him ... open up.

[ His thumbs brush on Sholmes' cheeks, holding him like the treasure he feels he is. ]

It's the same for me. I don't have eyes for anyone else. I care about the people here, but you're the one I want. I don't want anyone else to be by my side. I want you happy.

[ He gives Sholmes a soft kiss. ]

I've given you my soul, my secret. In a lot of ways, my life is in your hands.

[ With his words, Finley brushes against Sholmes' legs affectionately. A shiver runs down Kotetsu's spine at the connection. ]

[greatdeduction]

...Ah.

[Once again, he can't help but think....how lucky I am. He doesn't need an emotion bond to tell how serious the man is. This is...real. This was born on a farce, perhaps, but like a flower is someone wont to grow from the cracks in stone, what they have is real.]

You really are...so terribly special. More special than I can say. [He kisses him back, eyes a little watery, now, hands reaching up to clasp over the other's hands.] You...won't leave me. And for that, I will fight for you and your life. Always.

[Irene moves, hopping over to Kotetsu...and places just a single paw against Kotetsu's legs. Just a single touch. It's enough to make him shiver.]

[ His smile is so warm and affectionate, holding him so dear. ]

You're right. I won't leave you. No matter what. [ He kisses him once again, softly. ] We'll have to make sure to have each other's backs from here on.

[ As if they didn't already. ]

Thank you. Thank you. I don't even feel like saying that is enough.

[ Finely remains pressed against Sholmes, but leans forward to nuzzle Irene softly. ]

[greatdeduction]

Come now, man.

[And a kiss in return, like a signature to a letter.]

I should be the one saying that. I should be saying thank you.

[Irene reaches over to snuffle at Finley, pressing a paw against her, too.]

[sponsoredby]

Why you...?

[ Curiously. He lightly nuzzles Sholmes.

Finley is content with this. ]

[greatdeduction]

[A light, bubbly laugh.]

Who's been there for me for all these days, from the beginning? Even before that timing of our curse. It doesn't take a great detective to figure out how grateful I am for...everything you give me. Truly.

The same goes for you, you know. It was so easy to get along with you. I can't help but think this would have been the eventual outcome anyway. It's always been comfortable with you. Like a perfectly fit glove.

[ Maybe it would have, maybe it wouldn't have. Either way, everything went as it was meant to be. ]

So, I guess we both owe each other a lot.

[greatdeduction]

It's true. I always liked you. Even just as a friend. I liked trying to see the world from your eyes.

[A kiss to the lips.]

Ah, Kotetsu. How wonderful you are.

[sponsoredby]

The feeling's the same. I've been awed by you from the start.

[ Though, a pause and a small laugh. ]

Even if our origin story also has nun outfits and hitting you with a seagull.

[ Or maybe that ADDS to the charm?? ]

[greatdeduction]

Haha, were you?

[this is just "aww you had a crush on me" "we're married"]

Well...if I remember correctly... [And he winks.] You really wore that nun outfit quite well.

[sponsoredby]

I was. Why do you think I looked so hard to find a working TV for us to use?

[ It was only for Sholmes. ... But yeah, that's them exactly. ]

Maybe because I'm used to a skintight thing. You didn't look too bad in it, either.

[greatdeduction]

Haha, maybe you were simply the world's biggest television fan!

[He laughs at that.]

Would you want me to wear it again, perhaps?

[sponsoredby]

It was really fun seeing your curiosity to learn in motion.

[ He's so, so amused by that request. ]

For you? I would. I still have it in my bag, just in case.

[greatdeduction]

It was fun learning about something new.

[And a shake of the head.]

I was saying I would wear it...but now that you offer, how could I say no to seeing that sight with my eyes a second time?

[sponsoredby]

I have so much I'd love to show you and teach you.

[ He laughs! ]

Maybe we'll have to do that for each other sometime.

[ Hello? Is this some kind of kink, boys?? ]

[greatdeduction]

Oh? You mean there's more? You can't dangle things like that and expect me not to bite.

[ALSO BOYS, NO, NOT THE NUN KINK]

I wouldn't say no to that.

[sponsoredby]

Of course there's more. Some of it I can't even explain properly. Our telephones can display images of the person you're talking to. See them face to face, even if you're far away...

[ and somehow we discover they're oddly kinky, wouldn't that be funny. ]

We'll have to find time to enjoy that.

[ IMAGINE, IF YOU WILL, THEM IN THE HOOKAH BAR, NUN OUTFIT, IN A PRIVATE ROOM????? ]

[greatdeduction]

What? Noooo. You're pulling my leg. That's possible?

[ME RATSHAKING THE BOYS LIKE STOP GOING DOWN THIS HORNY PATH WHAT THE HECK]

We live in busy times...but I'm sure we could.

[sponsoredby]

Would I lie about something like that?

[ AND YET. THEIR REALLY PURE WHOLESOMENESS ....... LEADS TO THIS. ]

We do. Maybe we could take a break one night at the bar. They've got some private places... We wouldn't have to worry about anyone seeing anything.

[ He actually isn't being lewd with that statement. It's for the protection of their relationship! ]

[greatdeduction]

No...but it still sounds quite unbelievable! I'll have to see it! Absolutely!

[He raises an eyebrow at "private places", before letting out a laugh.]

Very well. I like the idea of that. I do want to check out that bar, too...

[sponsoredby]

I'll make sure to show you one day.

[ Under normal circumstances this would be an outlandish suggestion, but given his role, it actually sounds feasible. ]

I dropped in for a little bit, but didn't really spend much time there. But speaking of bars... I have some whiskey left over from the party, if you wanted to share. A kind Watcher gave it to me.

[greatdeduction]

Oh?

[And a tilt of the head.]

I did see you talking with Baraqiel earlier...I assume it was them?

[sponsoredby]

Yeah. They offered to share a drink with me and made a whole bottle of my choice. Thought I might save some in case my favorite detective was interested.

[greatdeduction]

Haha.

[His eyes twinkle at being called a "favorite detective".]

I most certainly am, my dear. Let's share!

[ Of course Sholmes is his favorite detective. But that boyish sparkle is cute. ]

I have it in my bag. After I grab that, where to?
