Heh. I can think of plenty of people who'd call me vain for drinking to that one. Lucky I'm drinking with you instead.

[Chuuya drinks, naturally.]

Well, never have I ever been a sexy redhead.

[Fuck. What is he supposed to do without his ability?? He’ll try punching it, kicking it, throwing knives at it, but damned if he doesn’t feel near useless right now. Seeing his boyfriend get hurt throws him into a rage, and boss be damned, he’s going to try his best to kick its ass.]

You better have brought ink!!

[goatsongs]

We can retreat if we have to but - shit!

[Shuji gets two solid hits in along with Chuuya's attacks, but then that Taint is rearing up to try to run them over again.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

Haaaah!

[Well, it’s now or never. Chuuya will do his best to go all out and kill the Taint before it can run them over again, but he may not be able to do it on his own.]

[buyingmittens]

[Maybe not on his own, but with another shot from Niimi-]

Bang!

[-the Taint dissolves before it can even scratch them again.

And yes, Niimi did say 'bang' out loud while shooting his gun.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

...holy shit, that was impressive, Niimi-chan!

[He shouldn’t curse around kids, huh? Oh well.

He makes his way over to his boyfriend before giving him a once-over.]

You okay? You better be.

[goatsongs]

I've had worse.

[While Chuuya does look grumpy about being injured, he isn't covered in letters, so that's factually true.

Meanwhile, Niimi is bouncing on the balls of his feet. Nakahara said he did good~~]

Looks like the fog's clearing up.

[thetaintedsorrow]

Looks like it.

[Chuuya is so relieved that his boyfriend is okay. He’d have to go on a rampage if not.]

So...did we save the book?

[buyingmittens]

We did it! Wait just ooone second, okay?

[When the authors disappear, it's in a flash of light, and it takes only a few seconds after that for Poe to dismiss his ability and return Chuuya to the library.

The book's looking a lot better in Poe's hands. While poet-Chuuya starts impressing on Poe how much he owes them, Niimi tugs on mafia-Chuuya's arm.]

I gotta ask you something important. [Whisper whisper.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[Well, that could’ve been a lot worse, honestly. It was certainly an experience, but Chuuya would much rather be able to fight using his ability when there’s the risk of getting trampled by a huge ass Taint.

He lets poet-Chuuya do his thing as he turns his attention to Niimi.]

Yeah? What’s that?

[He whispers back.]

[buyingmittens]

When are you and Chuuya-san gonna get married?

[Niimi whispers this with everybody else still in the room.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[...oh.

OH.

Well, this is awkward. Chuuya loves poet-Chuuya more than anything in the world, but marriage? Never once has Chuuya considered himself the marrying type. Who needs an official document for their love?

...]

Did he mention getting married to you?

[buyingmittens]

[Niimi shakes his head. Nope, hasn't said anything.]

But you've been dating him forever...

[thetaintedsorrow]

[This kid...]

I promise I’ll think about it, Niimi-chan.

[goatsongs]

[Niimi is about to thank him, when:]

What are you two whispering about over here?

[Chuuya's done intimidating Poe, and now he's here to see what his boyfriend and friend are talking about.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

It’s a secret, obviously.

[He grins, patting Niimi on the head before sliding his arm around his boyfriend’s shoulders.]

Wanna go celebrate?

[goatsongs]

Of course. For a successful mission and our first mission together, that means a celebration.

[Sorry Niimi, it's Boyfriend Time.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

Hell yes. Wanna get plastered?

[As if he really needs to ask.]

Which bar are we going to?

[goatsongs]

[And so they fast forward to a random bar they've been to before, and Chuuya orders his usual sake.]

What do you think? A toast to our partnership?

[thetaintedsorrow]

Hell yeah.

[Chuuya toasts to that, whiskey sloshing in his glass.]

Maybe if you get me drunk I’ll tell you what Niimi asked me.

[goatsongs]

Like I wouldn't get my gorgeous boyfriend drunk anyway?

[Chuuya takes a long drink.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

Heh. You sure know how to sweet talk a guy.

[He reaches beneath the bar to slide his hand up poet-Chuuya’s thigh.]

I dunno if I can wait till we get home to jump you.

[goatsongs]

If you don't mind us getting kicked out of this bar...

[Chuuya scoots his stool up against mafia-Chuuya's, so he doesn't have to reach as far when he slides his thumb underneath mafia-Chuuya's shirt and rubs against his side.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

I think it’d be worth it. If we got caught, that is.

[He purrs as poet Chuuya touches him so gently.]

I always have wanted to do it somewhere we might get caught.

[goatsongs]

Lucky you that I always wanted to give you everything you ever wanted.

[Chuuya grins at the sounds he's drawing out of his boyfriend as he rubs sensitive spots on his stomach. He's trying not to be too obvious, but he's never been good at self-restraint.]

[thetaintedsorrow]

[They both suck at self-restraint, honestly.

Chuuya gets a little payback by sliding his hand up to brush right over poet-Chuuya’s crotch.]

Yeah? You’re spoiling me, you know.
