” Ah, you kill me? I’d like to see you try. I’ve given you many opportunities, but as always you’re unable to go against me. ” Places his hands into his pockets smiling amused.

” Are you now taking away my freedom to roam around wherever I please? I didn’t think you had the power to do so. “

[hermits-arcana]

"Don't tempt me." Hisses, drawing out one of his pistols without hesitation. "I could end your miserable existence right here, right now, old man." It was only after he drew out his guns that he grew... hesitant. Growling slightly, he returned the weapons to their holsters, turning away in irritation.

"Just shut up n' get lost, I'm not in the mood for you today. I don't care if you roam around just make sure it's not anywhere near me."

[moons-arcana-blog]

” I didn’t expect such a warm welcome from you. ”

[hermits-arcana]

"If that's what you consider warm, then me killin' you must be your idea of a grand inferno welcoming. Why the hell're you here, old man?"

"......................................................................................................."

[fools-arcana]

“Don’t you ever get tired of being an incurable flirt, Debito?” Sighing slightly, he really didn’t approve of the others flirtatious behavior, especially if he…. Shaking his head immediately, he just sighed. He’d address that subject in a few moments matter-of-fact.

” …?! ” Jumping out of his thought, he glanced over his shoulders, before turning completely to face him. Nodding his head, he leaned lazily on the table, cupping his face in his hands as he stared at Debito idly.

” It’s about the Princess,” He began, glancing down momentarily, and immediately bringing his attention back up. ” If you’re going to continue to pursue her, I need to know that your feelings for her are genuine! ” Expression completely void of any other emotion, he was actually quite serious about the subject. Even if they were all part of the Famiglia, he still felt that he had an obligation to the Princess. If she was going to be pursued, he had to make sure that it’d be by someone who was devoted to her.

” Are you willing to give up being a flirt for her? “

[hermits-arcana]

"Huh? Get tired of it?" Those words seemed almost foreign to him. Get... tired of being a flirt? Had this kid lost his marbles, or what? "What's there to get tired of? It's just a natural gift, if signorinas flock to you when all you do is act friendly, what's there to get tired of?" Being a flirt from a younger age, it was almost logical to Debito. How could anyone ever think that flirting was... bad? 

As the other got comfortable and starting speaking of Felicità, however, it caught Debito's attention. 

"Bambina?" He mused, crossing his legs and leaning back against the chair. "What about 'er?" 

Once the other had begun to rant about him stopping his flirtatious ways for the sake of Felicità, he couldn't help but crack a grin. He was honestly, a hundred percent serious about this! Cackling to himself momentarily, he glanced up to the eager blonde across the table before smirking, and shaking his head.

"Sorry, kiddo. But I don't think I could ever give it up. Flirting's an art. Besides, while having Bambina would be a bonus, I'm never satisfied with just one woman... Even if Bambina is special." Folding his arms across his chest, he grinned wider.

"Are you going to tell me to stop chasing her skirt now? Is that what this is about...? ~"

[fools-arcana]

Taking a moment to think about that, Libertà was pretty sure he could take Pace on if everyone else was assisting. Smirking, he gave Debito a thumbs-up— a sign of approval for his plan, perhaps?

Staring down at the ground as the others answered, he quickly nodded. Taking in a deep breath once they were inside, he felt his stomach churn, that’s what you get for fishing, training, and getting chewed out by Dante all day. The aromas of the freshly made food were not helping the situation either. Grinning sheepishly when he realized he was just standing by idly, he looked around for some seats they could take.

” …!!! ” Glances back to Debito, grinning.

“There are seats over there! Come on before they’re taken. ” Hours like these always caused these small simple restaurants to be jam-packed..and….Jam-packed it was. It was almost a competition to get a seat, too.  Quickly rushing to claim the table, which luckily for him happened to be near a window, he grinned. Instead of browsing the menu like he should have been doing, his eyes instead focused on outside said window. Watching each passerby hurry to their next destination usually brought a dorky smile on his face. 

[hermits-arcana]

Walking into the establishment rather nonchalantly, he grinned at a few of the ladies he passed by, blowing them a solitary kiss before following after Libertà and putting his hands back into his pockets. The smell of the different Italian cuisines were making his stomach churn in starvation as well... When was the last time he ate, anyway? He'd been so preoccupied with... other things, that he'd lost track of time. 

Dazing off before being called back to attention by the happy-go-lucky blonde, he arched a brow, grinning and following after him to grab said seats before some rude old signora or otherwise attempted to steal them. 

Taking his seat, he folded his arms behind his head, glancing around aimlessly before his gaze landed back on Libertà.

"You wanted to ask me somethin', didn't you?" He questioned, picking up a menu and glancing over it half-heartedly, not really caring what to get, so long as it wasn't lasagna, he was overly sick of the taste and even more, the sight of that food. 

[fools-arcana]

Excited at the thought of lunch, it was the simple things that seemingly cheered Libertà up. Nodding his head, and actually laughing at his hair being ruffled, he brought his hands up immediately afterward to fix his already mussed hair.

” Good luck! He owes me, and Nova money too.” Just runs ahead of the other anxiously, glancing back and blinking. Ceases his walking, curiously staring at the golden-eyed male, before averting his gaze.

“Debito?” Pauses, thinking about how exactly he wants to word this. ” There’s something I want to ask you, and it’s important so no jokes!” Frowning, and running after the male to keep up, he grinned at the restaurant sign, before hurriedly pushing the door open.

[hermits-arcana]

Watching the other fix his tousled hair only brought a wide grin to the other's face. Following along behind the buoyant blonde, he stuffed his hands in his pockets, cackling at the other's words. 

"Maybe we should all just gang up on him then, eh?" He smirked, even with his strength, Pace couldn't take them all could he? 

It was only when he'd pulled ahead of the other that he'd blinked in surprise, glancing left and right for any sign of Libertà, before looking forward. Arching a brow, he then glanced back just as his name was called,

"Eh?" He scratched at the back of his head. "Something important, huh? Alright, kid. You can ask me once we get inside, it's gettin' near Lunch hour and I don't wanna be left without a table." Following him inside, his amber eyes wandered around, his mind puzzled at what exactly Libertà could have wanted to ask him.

[fools-arcana]

Staring in surprise as Debito didn’t even bother to view the contents of the letter, he shrugged. Unlike Debito, the curiosity would have ate at him as to what it was the other male had to say, exactly.

Ah well, shrugging slightly, seeing as though it wasn’t really his concern as to what the other did with his own stuff, he just gave the male a smile.

“Lunch?” Glancing around quickly as he repeated the others words, he half expected a certain brunette to come rushing out, but sighed in relief when that wasn’t the case.

“Sure!” Answers almost a bit too enthusiastically. ” If you’re treating that is! ” Grins playfully, scratching his cheek nervously.

“Err… I’m kinda broke..”

[hermits-arcana]

The silver-haired male felt no need to open, let alone read the letter once he found out who it was from. Curiosity killed the cat, after all. And he had no interest in anything Jolly had to say to him. Especially since he had a feeling it was just the other attempting to beckon him into his laboratory, and that just wasn't happening. 

"Yeah, lunch. What else? It's too early for dinner." He mused, shaking his head.

Grinning knowingly, he once more ruffled Libertà's hair, nodding and pointing over his shoulder.  "Yeah, yeah. Sure. I got it covered, just hurry before Pace finds us and expects me to treat him too. He still owes me for paying off his last tab." Smirking, he led the other down the corridor and out to your generic Italiana restaurant.

[fools-arcana]

Sighing heavily, he nodded, almost managing a smile. The breaking-through of said smile was possibly the words of encouragement as well as the head pat. He nodded eagerly.

” You’re right, I just have to do better. ” Though the fishing part wasn’t really what got Libertà in such a bad mood, it was part of the reason. None-the-less the blonde ran on praise, and encouragement.

“Jolly yanked me aside in the middle of the hallway,” Blinks confusedly. Speaking of which…How did Jolly know that he was going to bump into Debito? Shuddering slightly at the thought of that man, he couldn’t help but be the least bit wary of him. “He said to go and see him. Honestly, I think you should steer clear. Just my opinion. “

[hermits-arcana]

Grinning at the other's change in demeanor, he nodded in agreement. "Yeah, no worries, kiddo. Soon you'll be beating Dante at his own game and he'll be jealous." He snickered, crossing his arms. It was only at the other's mention of Jolly that his smile dropped.

"Jolly?" He questioned, just to be sure that was what he said.

Scowling, he nonchalantly tore the letter in half, before tossing it over his shoulder. "No need to tell me, kid. I had no plans on going to see him anyway." His tone dismal and irritated, he let a deep sigh escape his lips before grinning once more. "Thanks for delivering it though, how about we go get lunch? ~ I'm starving." Change of subject? Definitely.

[fools-arcana]

“I’m not in a bad mood! I just don’t need you picking on me too.” Tilting his head as he listened to the other, he growled quickly averting his gaze. Obviously the whole talk about ‘big catch’ hit a sore spot that Libertà wasn’t in the mood to come out and exactly talk about. 

“Oi! Don’t disregard what I’m sayin—-Ehh?” Blinking nervously at the sudden physical interaction, he sighed lightly. Shaking his head immediately at the others question he sighed.

” No, I haven’t seen the Princess,” Makes sure to stress the last part, as though to hint at the others informal way of speaking about her in a warning manner. “Though…”

Pauses, going into thought momentarily.

” Oh yeah! I was asked to deliver you something anyways, I was on my way to see you when….Where is it??? ” Trails off once again, searching around in his pockets, pulling a sealed crumpled envelope out, smiling. “Here!”

[hermits-arcana]

"Picking on you? Yeesh. Relax, will you? What's got you wound up so tight, eh?" Watching the other turn away in frustration at his mention of fishing, he could only grin, ruffling his hair. "Don't worry, you'll get 'em next time."

"I'm listenin'." He canted, gazing off elsewhere, before looking back to him at mention of Felicità. 

"No?" He sighed, letting the other go before glancing down to the crumbled up envelope in his grasp, arching a brow. "Nice delivery skills, kid." He mused, before taking it.

"... Who's it from?" He turned it over, glancing this way and that for a name or detail to clue him in. 

[fools-arcana]

Arching an eyebrow, and staring at the eye-patch wearing man, he shrugged him off nonchalantly.

” Ciao, Debito. ” Unenthusiastically greets him in return. He didn’t have any issues with Debito, but he wasn’t exactly fond of the idea of being the target of cheap laughs either. 

“I don’t need a compass, I have a GREAT sense of direction! You’ve been listening to that stupid Chickpea, haven’t you?!“

[hermits-arcana]

"Oi, someone sure sounds like he's in a bad mood.. Did you miss out on this morning's big catch or what, Libertà?" He mumbled, before giving the other a rather lax grin.

"Do you now? That's fascinating. -- Hm? Chickpea? Nova? I can barely hear him up here." Smirking, he put an arm around the other's shoulder, leaning in a bit, "You haven't seen Bambina around, have you, Libertà?"

[hermits-arcana]

fools-arcana started following you.

"Olé, olé, Libertà! I'm surprised you found your way without a compass. ~ Did you get lost?"
