Thanatos and Orpheus // Private Thead for the Win

[itsnotaleash]

[Here's a familiar sight. Ryoji is following Minato like a duckling as they search through the doors that lead to random universes. It wasn't like they had anything better to do other than laze around their new dorm room. They both didn't even own a lot to do anything in the room other than sleep in it. So, out into the world they went.

While Minato was opening one of the doors and peeking in, Ryoji was babbling as usual. After all he talks for both of them most of the time.]

There are so many doors here. I wonder if we'll find a universe with nothing but scantily clad ladies in an onsen? Could that even be possible... ?

I would rather go back to Nyx then let you go back to him!

[clockstopped]

[Jumps slightly again at the sudden yelling but >:|s right back.] Don't say things like that.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Don't say things like that either, then! [Tugging on his scarf now]

[clockstopped]

You were the one who asked for the truth.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Doesn't mean I have to like the truth.

[clockstopped]

I'm still not changing my mind.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You don't need to do that at all. As long as the Seal keeps Erebus away from Nyx than I'm safe in the Velvet Room. Igor told us so.

[clockstopped]

[Respect Igor? Sure. But doesn't trust Igor as far as he could throw him. ... But just sighs in exhaustion. Lover's spat avoided for now.] Yeah...

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Just looks more exhausted than before] ...

[clockstopped]

...

Was that why you closed that door?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... Yeah.

[clockstopped]

Oh...

...........

[Hugs from behind, holding his arms down and burying his face in the back of the other's neck. But the voice is blank, though not in the way how it normally feels but more like it seems forced that way.]

I... think it saw me...

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

...

Yet, I won't let it near you.

[clockstopped]

[Doesn't say anything, but not exactly removing himself either. Stuck between whether to believe you or not...]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You're mine, after all.

[clockstopped]

[Quiet, but something between a scoff and a laugh goes here.] Possessive, aren't we?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Oh, and you aren't?

[clockstopped]

I'm not.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Just takes Minato's hands.] That's a lie.

[clockstopped]

[Warm hands asdfgh hand twitches a bit just from the brief shock of it before getting used to the warmth in question.] .... Is it?

... [Looks up and rests his chin on his shoulder to look at. Nuzzling was never my thing after all.] Is it really?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Your hands are cold, Minato, but Ryoji is quite used to them by now. After all, he's usually touching you.] Of course it is.

[clockstopped]

All I want is for you to be happy.

[Takes a hand back and goes to run his hand through his hair-- ... and instead shoves his face away.] I'd let you go if I had to. Thus - not possessive. Idiot.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

I'm happy with you at my side.

[Tries to push his face back.] You going back to him wouldn't make any of us happy. Is it that hard to understand...?

[clockstopped]

Do you pick up girls with that one?

[Relinquishes the face shoving in favor of grabbing at the wrist pushing back. And pulling upwards so he doesn't have use of it, harhar.] But you don't want to go back to Nyx. You're happy being alive, aren't you?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... It's true, though.

[... Just kind of slumps with his hand on his heart.] I'm more than happy being alive! Yet, I can't imagine being alive without you. The Velvet Room would be a lonely place without my assistant.
