█░     HIGH SUMMONER ( 大召喚士 )

Besaid was just as Braska remembered it. If he hadn’t known better, he might have thought he’d imagined it all— their distant journey, their hard-fought battles, that darkness that came over him then, there, at the end of it all. He shook his head at the thought, his eyes returning back out toward the sea. It did not do to dwell on such things, he decided. And with a huff to himself, a sigh, he let his vision wander as he pondered what to do next.

First, of course, he needed to find his friends. If he was alive and well somehow, would they not be as well? A soft smile grew on his face at the thought. They had to be, didn’t they? He’d find them... if only he knew where to look.

A moment later he realized that he was no longer alone on the docks. And so, he turned, looking over his shoulder back at the dock’s entrance, and gave a nod to the man that he saw. He was welcome to join him, of course. Perhaps some conversation would do him good.

FLOWER [for Even uvu]

send me a ✿ and i’ll generate a number.

61. Comforting hug.

At first, Ienzo doesn’t even notice. Ignoring Vexen’s Even’s chatter as white noise while they are working comes like second nature to him; it takes a while for him to register its absence. He keeps sorting through reports, marking the sides with little notes where they are appropriate, until the silence catches up with him.

He turns to look and finds Even just standing there, frozen and staring at nothing in particular. Ienzo can’t know what he’s seeing for sure, but he has a good idea of what it might be. Who it might be.

(It’s who Ienzo sees, sometimes, even when he’s not really there. Only in his case he’s in the background, while that thing---)

“Even,” Ienzo calls out softly, makes sure the man is back in the study with him before he touches him. He isn’t sure who exactly he’s trying to comfort when he crosses the distance between them and wraps his arms around Even’s back, tentatively at first, face buried into the man’s chest so that he doesn’t have to see his reaction. The loss of his two guardians hadn’t truly hit him until he had woken up, recompleted and reunited with them once more; there was no time to mourn them in Castle Oblivion, even if he’d thought himself capable of it. The realisation of how close he came to losing everything again hits him every now and then, and it terrifies him.

Things with Even might be .... difficult more often than not, but the man is still family. Ienzo doesn’t want to lose him ever again. He doesn’t want to see him hurting, either. He holds on a bit tighter.

Curiosity was a weakness of his, not that he’d admit it. But being alone for so long meant there was very little he knew about the worlds above the darkened mirror image of the worlds he lived amongst. 

Thanatos had taken his spare time watching from shadows and trying to understand the world around him with now unclouded eyes. And even as he watched, he realised...

He really had no idea what the hell was happening. 

He watched the old scientist from his hiding spot, half submerged the the veil, making the room smell faintly of ozone as he lingered. He didn’t understand what he was doing, or why, and his curiosity was piqued, so he slowly stepped out and leant over his shoulder to get a better look. 

“...What are you doing?” He asked gently, head tilted slightly to the side.

@chxllyacademic:

“I don’t believe you are in any position to be making such comments, VII. However, we are all working towards a common goal, despite what you might be implying.”

“Is that so? Then tell me, what exactly are you doing with the replica program? The puppet is running her course, yet still you pore over books while whispers of a personal failsafe echo through the halls.”

“Tell me you act out of an abundance of caution.”

dad tbh :

The foreign hands are startling, but oddly comforting at the same time. He’s just been shuffling through reports, looking for one in particular to further his experiment. The last thing he had been expecting were hands on his back.

He knows its Lavi before he even looks up, and doesn’t flinch away. The muscles in his back are tense, and this is quite relaxing.

“This is much appreciated, Lavi.”

“ well, i noticed that ya were a bit stiff, so i thought i’d help ya a bit. just lemme know if you want me t’ stop. ”

chuckling softly, Lavi continues massaging the blonde’s back, being careful not to rub too hard. taking a deep breath, he peeks over Vexen’s shoulder and blinks a few times before speaking again.

“ how about ya take a break and lemme help for a while? ”

thank you!!

“I don’t see why not. Just make sure you don’t keep the entire castle awake tonight, hm?”

there’s a short gasp before he wraps his arms around Vexen and gives him a quick squeeze.  “ 'course, sir! i won’t do it this time, i swear! ”
