The Resolution:: Min and Doyun
@hellslittleprince Such genuineness… that was what radiated from Doyun most days. He was such a genuine person, in so many ways. So honest it almost hurt, but wasn’t that what they’d all fallen for anyway? For the chance to be better, and to be worse? To have that choice, rather than their whole lives dictated by a man who claimed to care for them? Wasn’t he in the same position, in some ways? He swallowed, eyes searching the fallen one more time as he steeled himself for the first question. It was possibly the most selfish, one he shouldn’t dare ask and even consider in the first place, and yet… “When… when we decide how to do it… how to stop my heart… will you do it?” He asked carefully, trying his best to keep eyes locked on him, a plea behind them but soft too… understanding already that he might hear a no. “I just…. I trust you. M…more than anyone right now. And if it’s too difficult or too much, I will understand and you can say no and-… and anyway my other question was whether you’d kiss me? Because if I *do* die I don’t really want to do it with barely a single bit of experience or knowing what it’s like and I know it doesn’t mean anything and-…” He was rambling. So much rambling. And maybe he should be asking his little fire sprite these questions… but he couldn’t drag him into this. Not now. Not with the risks… they all deserved better.
Being as old as Doyun was, having spent a full existence tasked with understanding human emotions, interactions, and patterns, there was a small list of things that he knew full well he could've heard... But storms above those two in particular had the Fallen's heart race and his eyes widen. Of all the things Minnie could've asked, he knew that those two bore the most weight.
Help stop Minnie's heart? Be the one to do... whatever it was they figured would work? First would have his head. But if this moment was any indication, this war and conflict any sign, this was not, for once, about First. This was about Minnie, as it in truth always should have been. So lavender eyes softened somehow even more as the blonde brought their foreheads together with a summer-warm smile.
"Goodness, Minnie, It must've taken a lot to muster up the courage to even ask, huh? If that's what you want, for my hands to be the one to do the deed, stop your heart? It'd be an honour, truly" He breathed out, the words thoughtless and easy as his head a tilted a little in thought.
"And in truth, that almost word for word my answer to your second question. I don't think it's much of a secret that I've always found you adorable, Sweetheart. But I just want to make sure you're certain you'd like for it to be me, if this is your first kiss. What of your little Spark that Nixxie took a shine to.. Byeol, was it?"
