I will. Of course I will. I wouldn't hold back just to keep this between us.

[ He softly kisses back. ]

We have other secrets to keep. Other things we'll have only between us.

[greatdeduction]

Of course. Those secrets are for you and I to hold, no one else.

[He's just very soft and fond right now.]

....By the by. If Mr. Escardos comes asking, do let him know that we are still seemingly unable to resolve our differences. He does seem insistent on keeping our friendship together.

[ It's strange. Kotetsu enjoys their secrets, but he also wants to embrace their relationship and not have to worry about a touch or a look giving them away. ]

I'll keep that in mind. It's hard to lie to him... he seems to be having a hard time. Jack was really protective. I think he's afraid of who to trust.

[ But maybe that's just his gut instinct. ]

[greatdeduction]

...

[His expression falls.]

That young man is...well, I won't go into details. But he's lived a life that he's tried very hard to keep as happy as he wants it to be. Its hard for him. He wants connections, to understand...well, to just understand, in general.

[He sighs.]

But we'll just have to ensure he'll be alright, in the days that will keep coming.

I just have to remind myself that lying is keeping them and us safe... I only hope they'll forgive me in the end.

[ He leans a bit heavier on Sholmes. ]

I found out a bit about him... His life seemed complicated.

[greatdeduction]

Being an accomplished liar...I know about that all too well. Sometimes a lie can be for the greater good.

[A sigh.]

I don't think I've met a single person here whose life isn't complicated.

I lived my life keeping my hero identity from my daughter... so I'm used to hiding things.

It's nice having someone I don't have to lie to.

[ Let's not talk about other things he's kept hidden at home. ]

You're right. Everyone has a story...

[greatdeduction]

It means a lot, doesn't it?

[To be so open and vulnerable, and not have to worry. Also yeah, let's not talk about other things *he's* kept hidden at home.]

One wonders the selection process. I don't feel we're doing much for this "conflict" anyways.

It does. It would have made this a lot harder...

[ He may or may not know Something, but... they can worry about those things later. ]

I wondered the same. Especially since everyone had their powers taken from the start.

[greatdeduction]

[kotetsu your SOMETHING]

Oh, that reminds me. We never did try out your powers, did we?

[ No... YOUR something. :) ]

We got a little... distracted last week.

[greatdeduction]

[looks away wow nice spot in the distance there]

Hm. We sure did, didn't we? I suppose there's always this coming week. You know I'd like to see them.

[ uh huh. ]

There's always tonight.
