You would wish to befriend it. [Smirks! Wataru, you're ridiculous, but Eichi gets it.]

Hmmm, it would be tough though. I wonder if it can speak.

[ He's cupping both hands around his ears, listening in the direction of the dragon. ]

Hm, no, it seems it's rather uninterested in speaking at the moment. I'll have to acquire friendship with one another way. I'll work on my draconic interpretive dance in the meantime.

[ One of the buildings is probably crashing to the ground now. ]

[It's so bad out there. Eichi is lucky he's here with Wataru.]

This one is likely to be slain by those "heroes" out there, so you'll have time to practice before meeting another one. How happy they must be to finally get to fight a "monster".

[There is absolutely a sneer in his voice about that.]

[ He looks back at Eichi with a faint smile before looking back out at mess happening in front of them. It's weird how nostalgic it feels to have a conversation about heroes and monsters? ]

Oh, to be a valiant hero bathed in golden light, striking down the vile creature that opposes it... I wonder if such a thing is enjoyable after all. I cannot fathom a guess, as I have only been in the role of the monster.

Perhaps they will win, raising their heads to laugh as if the city is not burning around them. Or, they will lose, realising that glory is cut from the dirt beneath their feet.

Fufu, in a more complete answer... I can't really tell who's who, so I'm just imagining beautiful heroes...!

Having played both roles...

I have to say that I hate heroes, even now.

[He leans to the side in an attempt to put his head on Wataru's shoulder, his fingers twitching as he manages not to claw Wataru's thigh.]

Those who can laugh as they slay their monsters... how cruel they are.

[ Wataru is quiet for a moment, then leans his own head down against the top of Eichi's. ]

Even monsters have dreams that can come true, or be crushed underfoot. A battle to the death may be inevitable, but it's best to treat your opponent with respect, no?

That kind of laughter... it can spoil and rot such a moment from the inside.

[Eichi... reaches for Wataru, clinging to his hair because of course he does.]

Mmmh. I wonder what kind of dreams the monsters out there have.

[ Of course. ]

Hm... I could wager a guess, if you'd like to hear it.

I would.

[It doesn't really matter what Wataru says. He could say anything, and Eichi would just be happy to be hearing his voice.]

Hmmm... then, isn't it likely that they dream about home?

Not that they will get a chance to rest here, but being in an unfamiliar place, far from those you spent your life with—I would imagine that for the past while, these monsters have been falling asleep at night with their thoughts drifting to those they left behind.

The underworld may not be the most beautiful place at times, but a sense of familiarity goes a long way.

[ That's just what Wataru dreams about, but as a 'monster' it's fine to say it. ]

Oh, but of course not all of them wish to go back. Some others may dream of the future, of what makes them happy. Or something like chasing their prey through a dark forest, finding their way to a tea party... nonsensical things, certainly they can happen in monster dreams as well? Oh, how I would like to ask!

[Eichi is pretty sure this is more about Wataru than it is about the monsters out there, Eichi just has to see exactly how it fits.]

Mmmh, of course... Don't we all dream of home at times?

[He thinks about those he left behind all the time, especially Touri. How awful it must be for him there, after Eichi had passed away. He wishes he could let them know he was... well, not okay, but still around. He wasn't lost to the sands of time, though it might be a shock to see him now.]

What are your dreams like, Wataru?

...I wonder? Fufu, what would you think if I said I couldn't remember any of them?

Well, that'd be a lie anyway. My dreams are usually what I want to see, whether it be things I miss from the past, or how I'd like the future to play out. It may be surprising, but sometimes they are quite mundane.

I would say you are lying~

[He is mostly teasing.]

Hm, I figured you would have some mundane dreams too. You know, I could just go in and see your dreams myself, right? Hahahah! That's something this unit of mine is capable of. Isn't that funny? Me, being able to see and shape the dreams of others......

[ what is he going to with you. ]

Eichi~

Haven't I told you before...?

[ Actually, he doesn't think he has........... hm. ]

To me, you are— [ SMASH CRASH BANG SOME BUILDINGS GETTING FUCKED UP IN THE DISTANCE. ]

[Wow that's a cacophony of regret that's going on out there but WHATEVER. Eichi was only watching as an excuse to hang out with Wataru. Truthfully, it scares him. He'd rather be hiding, but here he is.

And it doesn't matter what Wataru said or was going to say, because Eichi will take the opportunity to steal a kiss from Wataru now ANYWAY.]

[ Well, as usual, Eichi is surprising.

He's leaning into it for a moment, opening his mouth—but then he remembers the poor boy is sick and leans back again. ]

Woooow~

Nothing is more romantic than a kiss like that... ♪

[ He might be blushing. Okay he's definitely blushing. Kissing while hell breaks loose around them is actually in the top three kiss situations, in his humble opinion. ]

[Eichi... forgot for a moment as well, but just that motion has him out of breath, clinging to Wataru for support.

... It is romantic, isn't it? The blush on Wataru's face definitely makes Eichi blush!!! Gosh!!!]

I couldn't help myself...

[ Wataru laughs, then gently touches his face. ]

Of course not! And it should be no other way!

What, that I cannot help but to kiss you, my... fiance?

[Oh gosh that just makes his face redder. He is fine saying it to other people, but referring to Wataru that way is a lot.]

You're right enough, though. I love you, so of course I want to touch you.

[ Blushing at his own words......... how is this emperor brat so cute.......

Wataru claps his palms against Eichi's cheeks. ]

That's right, you asked and I answered... ♪

I thought before that we had an excellently timed interruption, but since you're being quite adorable, I think I should tell you anyway... to me, you are my dream, so you are free to look into mine and shape them however you'd like.

[Oh no, that's....... adorable. Eichi practically melts into Wataru's hands, tears welling up in his eyes as he sniffles.]

MMMmmmmhh!! I would never do anything to your dreams to make them unpleasant for you...!

[ oh no. ]

The way you said that is far too cute, Eichi! What if I want a lovely, haunting nightmare to make my pulse race now?

[ masochism ]

...well, I could actually just do that myself, I suppose.

If it is something you want, it is hardly unpleasant, hmm? Some people enjoy being frightened~

[He leans into Wataru as much as he can with his face being held, tired.]

But I wouldn't invade your dreams unless you asked me to, either way. They can be intensely personal, and I don't want you to feel like you can't have your own space, even in your head.

...That said, I could do many interesting things with you in the space of your dreams....... If you ever had. A desire for something that's not feasible in our waking lives.

[Just. Gonna throw that out there.]

Eh? Are you teasing me? If you give me an inch, I'm going to take a mile, you know?
