hey follower!! how’s the new armor going for you :]
"Father had asked his majesty to forge me armor that would be fit for my knightly duties."
"...It's a little heavier, but if it allows me to protect those in need then I don't mind it."
-> Follower, who was at his father's temple like always, was particularly flabbergasted at the fact he was seeing DOUBLE of his father.
-> Although he didn't say anything and decided to just keep his distance for now.
[Egobworder - @knight-of-winds ]
Sunlight danced off the edge of a sharpened blade, the corpses of training dummies littering the floor as Follower breathed hard, deep pushes of his lungs kicking the air out of his throat. He’s been training for hours by now. Slash after slash another dummy would fall, a lifeless corpse that never even had life to begin with! The angel was pushing himself much harder than he usually would despite all of the teachings from his father.
Lessons of patience, of pacing oneself and never straining one’s body. Although all of his father’s teachings were being thrown out the window in Follower’s mind, the world around him was nothing but a blur as he raised his blade up high, preparing to strike until… A dull thump could be heard. And the cause of said thump happened to be Follower himself! The angel was lying on his side, breathing hard and digging his nails into the freshly polished floor. Everything hurt. He knew how much he was straining himself, he knew that this would hurt the moment his body gave out. Although he hadn’t cared until now. Gods above, why did he let this happen?
He closed his eyes, wings folding in on themselves. He could just lay here and rest, couldn’t he? Let the minutes pass away until he would eventually fall asleep from exhaustion. His eyelids felt heavy, his breathing slowly evening out as he tried to relax himself. His ears tried to hone in on anything around him. The gentle breeze, the birds chirping and… Footsteps approaching? His feathers fluffed up only briefly before a familiar voice rang out. “Follower! Are you around here somewhere?”
Ego? What was he doing here? Gods above, he couldn’t let his boyfriend see him like this! Follower let out a small chirp as he tried to push himself up into a sitting position. But he couldn’t, his arms felt like jelly, and he flopped back down to the floor and let out a pained chirp. And said chirp alerted the same demon he was so desperately trying NOT to look weak in front of! Ego came running over, his smile dropping instantly the moment he noticed the weak and tired Follower on the floor.
The canine knight hurried over and dropped down to his knees, hooking an arm under Follower to start lifting him up. “Follower?! What happened? Are you alright? By the name of Windforce, I will-” “Egobworder. Please.” Ego shut up instantly, tail pushing between his legs as he quietly continued to help Follower, getting the angel into a sitting position before sitting himself down beside his boyfriend, holding one of the angel’s hands in worry. The silence fell over the two, only being broken by the faint chirping of birds and Follower’s breathing slowly evening out.
Silence, comfortable but uneasy. Ego gently squeezed Follower’s hand, interlocking his fingers with the angel’s talons before he finally decided to speak up. “Are you alright, dear?” Follower was quiet, his head tilting back slightly. He didn't really know what to say. Sure, he wasn’t okay! He really wasn’t! He’s been feeling stressed and uneasy recently but… He didn’t know why. He tried talking to his father about it, telling the deity he was feeling stressed and upset, but not even the comforting words of Illumina could help. Hell! Even the deity himself was struggling to figure out what was wrong with his own son, which saddened both of them honestly.
Follower tried heading off to his uncle’s temple as well. Sometimes a visit to Ghostwalker’s would help him during moments like this. Getting to walk through the silence of the graveyard, getting to watch his uncle work away at making the utmost perfect graves for the spirits to lie in was… Oddly peaceful for him, even if some would consider him strange for finding such peace in death.
“Follower?” Ego’s voice broke the angel from his thoughts, his head wings flapping a little as he turned his head to look at the other knight. Oh how his heart broke when his blank purplish-white eyes gazed upon his lover. Ego looked worried, oh so very worried. Follower didn’t like that look, he didn’t like knowing Ego was upset over him. He leaned forward and hugged onto his boyfriend, closing his eyes and chirping softly as he felt Ego hug him back. This is what Follower needed, this felt nice. Did he really just need to be held? Did he just need someone to hold him and worry about for his stresses to slowly fade?
He didn’t know. And quite frankly he didn’t care to figure it out as he buried his face into Ego’s neck, letting out little content chirps and coos as he relaxed in his lover’s arms, feeling Ego slowly move his hand up to one of his wings, fingers moving through his feathers and adjusting the ones that gotten out of whack. Follower really only allowed his father to touch and fix up his wings, but the way Ego so gently fixed his feathers. The way Follower felt a droplet of love with every touch of Ego’s warm fingers against his fluffy feathers just made him warm, made him feel like he was on cloud nine.
Ego in general just made him feel that way. The way Ego was attentive towards him, how Ego always seemed ready and willing to drop whatever he was doing to come to his aid, how Follower couldn’t help but smile in his presence. Ego was his everything. The other knight may’ve not been the first demon he’s fallen for, but he knew Ego would be his last. The last and only love he’d ever yearn for. The others didn’t work out. One was already taken by an alternate version of himself and the Ego of his own world shattered him into the smallest pieces he could be. But this Ego? Oh how he loved him so much. So very very much. The angel couldn’t stop himself from adjusting his head, pressing a kiss onto the other knight’s cheek, tail feathers wagging as Ego’s tail began to wag as well, a smile pulling onto the lips of the teal demon.
“Do you want to talk about what happened, birdie?” Ego’s question caused the purple demon to flush darkly, his face going back into the other’s neck as his wings folded in on themselves. “Stressed. Unsure as to why.” Short and clipped response, Ego was used to this. He hummed and patted Follower’s back, bringing the other closer in his hold. “Does me being here help at all?” “Yes.” Ego giggled, tail patting against the ground as he kissed the side of Follower’s head.
“Do you want to head off your chambers, birdie?” Follower chirped gently and nodded, slowly getting up with the help of his lover. The canine knight locked arms with him, flashing Follower that usual charming smile of his. Follower couldn’t help himself from smiling as well, his smaller and shyer as the pair made their way out of the training area.
“Follower?”
“Yes?”
“I love you. Please never forget that, alright?”
“I will not. I love you as well, Egobworder.”
Both knights giggled a little as each other, making their way into the deity of light’s temple and vanishing down a hallway towards the angel’s sleeping chambers. Follower knew what he was in for. And he was excited to experience every moment of it.
"I do, yes."
-> The angel moved towards the other knight, his hand gripping the handle of his sword like it always seemed to be. Normally the angel was cool, calm and collected but he seemed.... Nervous.
"I hope I am not interrupting anything with my presence."
-> His feathers puff up as he blushes darkly. Shit, he wasn't being subtle with his nervousness, was he? Best to let it show more he assumes.
-> He could trust this one. He knew that.
"I am anxious, yes. My apologizes for not speaking so outwardly. I just assumed I could better handle it and how I am feeling at this current moment."
-> He smiled a little.
"I suppose I was incorrect."
"I uh-"
-> He tenses up slightly and fidgets with one of his talons, his wings stiffening slightly and his feathers flattening.
"I wish to.... Discuss something with you. It is incredibly important to me but I... I understand if you would rather not see me in a different light. So I can refrain from speaking on such a topic if you would wish."
"I-"
-> He breathes in and closes his eyes, trying to muster up the courage to speak.
"I have been... Thinking. I have been doing a lot of thinking and... I wanted to confess something to you-"
-> His voice cracked a little as he spoke, clearly the poor bird was worried out of his mind, feathers flattened and tail feathers pushed between his legs.
"I would- I would like to- Maybe- C-Change our relationship- Change it to something more- I mean- I am sorry I cannot-"
-> Stressed. He was so stressed. He was having minor flashbacks to when he regaled his feelings to his own Egobworder, how that went horribly wrong and Follower had his heart shattered into pieces.
"I am sorry- I should leave-"
-> The angel flushes when the other grabbed his hand, his feathers fluffing up a little before he let out a small breath, shyly squeezing Ego's hand back.
"I.... I simply wish to... Advance our relationship forward. I believe I can trust with you..."
-> He places his free hand on his chest where his heart was.
"With this. Unlike how the other you had shattered it."
"I do, yes."
-> The angel moved towards the other knight, his hand gripping the handle of his sword like it always seemed to be. Normally the angel was cool, calm and collected but he seemed.... Nervous.
