[...]

[glub]

[ waving a hand in his face. ]

So that's a yes? What are they like?

[lucentia]

[still red...]

... They're a very strong and kind person—the sort who would defend someone even when they have nothing to gain. Gallant, and determined.

[glub]

[ stop giving everyone cuteness aggression ]

Funny, that sounds like you, no? Except, just a bit less biased. Guess it's true that when you like someone, you start to become a little more like them, or something?

[lucentia]

... I don't deny that I have tried to act as they would. If I've succeeded even a bit, then I'm flattered.

[glub]

Is that you trying not to be formal again?

[ but, rafayel seems to smile it off. ]

But, seriously... I think you have. As much as I know about you, it seems like you're always trying to help people. That's why I was hoping you'd take care of yourself too.

[lucentia]

[...]

You're very kind, Rafayel.

[glub]

Where did that come from?

[ but, he doesn't seem to dislike it. ]

Do you feel a little better now?

[lucentia]

Is it so strange to say?

[he gives a light nod.]

Yes, thank you.

[glub]

Yeah, because you're probably the only one who thinks that, you know.

[ ahem. ]

But, I'm glad if that's the case. I'm sure you know, but you should try not to push yourself for the rest of the day.

[lucentia]

I'm certain I am not.

[ahem yourself.]

I know. I've no intention of making anyone worry.

[glub]

[ looking at lucien from the corner of his eye before looking away.

though, he does seem to perk back up at his response. ]

Good, you better keep it that way. Is it a promise?

[lucentia]

[rafayel...]

A promise seems quite drastic here.

[glub]

Drastic, or are you worried you won't keep it?

[lucentia]

I would do my best to keep it, of course, but there are few guarantees in this place.

[glub]

[ holding out his pinky. ]

[lucentia]

[looks at it]

[glub]

[ going to use his pinky to poke lucien's hand. ]

[lucentia]

Rafayel...?

[glub]

It's not a promise, but I thought we should still seal the deal.

Is this your first time?

[lucentia]

... Are you asking to do a pinky promise?

[glub]

[ he looks down at his pinky, before retracting it slightly. ]

We don't have to if you really don't want it.

[lucentia]

... No, it's fine. We can do it.

[he'll just have to feel extremely bad if he breaks it.]

Of course, I hope you'll also do your best to keep yourself safe, as well.

[glub]

[ then don't break it lucien... knife emojis

he brings his pinky back up, dutifully waiting for lucien's finger. ]

No takebacks. [ but, also... ] I always do, you know?

[lucentia]

[he will offer up his finger... even if this feels embarrassing...]

I suppose you've given less cause for concern than some people around here.
