I don't know if I should. I don't even know what I should tell anyone.
[ Sholmes being the exception, of course. ]
I don't want this falling into the wrong hands... especially if people can lose control of themselves from the Angels.
[ He sighs, leaning a bit against Sholmes now. ]
In case it ever comes up, the angel that helped us was named Raguel. They used to be a friend of God. They sacrificed themselves to purify that dragon and save us.
I don't know. When we were trying to escape and make it back to the gate, it came to attack us. That's where I lost the leg. The gate we were supposed to return from was destroyed... that's when Raguel sacrificed themselves. We never would have made it out of there without that.
[Irene squawks at Finley's change, burbling as she rubs her beak against her - before she sighs, and shifts into a hare probably for the first time in several days.]
[And its fine, the blood is hashtag aesthetic.]
Yes, of course. [And he leans in, pressing a kiss against his lips.] We've come so far. Let us continue.
[Irene snuggles up against her. Just the way it should be.]
Yes. [He says, quietly - again his arms wrap around him, keeping him close.] No matter what...you have a great detective to believe in. Always remember that.

[If anyone can be compelled...then anyone can be used, and made to give away secrets.]
Raguel... [All these SAD ANGELS. GOD.] Where did that dragon even come from, anyways?
no subject
And yeah. Angel friend. :c ]

[He strokes over the other's hair, frowning sadly.]
I'm sorry to hear that. it sounds like...they desperately wanted you to succeed, even at their own expense.

[ So. That really sucked a lot. But let's be real, Kotetsu is the same kind of creature, so... he can't throw stones. ]
no subject
[Yeah, it does ring familiar, with what he's heard from Kotetsu before. He's at least happy he won't pull something THAT drastic. Hopefully.]
Well, we won't let their sacrifice be in vain. We shall strive to keep the book safe, at all costs.
no subject
Yes... [ Also, sorry, Sholmes. He's probably gotten you kind of bloody from all this? They're both a mess.
Also, Sholmes can probably feel the shift against his back as Finley finally eases into a tiger again. Tired tiger, but tiger nonetheless. ]
No, we won't. I have to see this through to the end, too. Their sacrifice wasn't just for the book... it was for our lives, as well.
[ So, no dying, hopefully. ]

Mm, yeah...
[ And he reciprocates the kiss. It's soft, but it's there. ]

Kotetsu nods softly, leaning heavy into the holding. ]
My own personal hero. [ There's a hint of a smile, a genuine one, at that. ]
