i really have a type huh and it's the loyal and devoted knightly type....
hes a freak
jealous, jealous, jealous!
— "are you two dating?" ft. victor, emilio, merryrose
— VICTOR!
It took Victor a moment to process that question before quickly regaining his cool. He shot his co-worker a smile but in his mind he was panicking, thinking that he was being a little bit too obvious with his feelings. After all, he already said to himself that he'd push aside his feelings and let you meet other people. It made him feel a little giddy though, the thought of being mistaken as your lover gave him butterflies.
one night cinderella
Dedicated to @mcdonaldsnumberone because I hate Emilio stannies
"Have you heard of the tale about a girl named Cinderella? It's quite popular lately." Emilio turned to look at you, flashing his dazzling smile while closing a book shut. "I don't know if you're into fairy tales but I thought you might like it, so I got you a copy of the book. Consider it as a gift from me."
"Oh! A fairy tale about Cinderella? I've heard bits here and there but I wasn't digging for the full story that much – thank you for the gift though!" You took the book from his hands, and glossed over the pages filled with illustrations and words, you wondered if this book was meant for younger children with all of the drawings between the pages.
"It's a story about an orphaned girl working tirelessly for her cruel stepmother and stepsisters, and of course, how she got her happily ever after with a prince. It sounds a bit childish and basic but it's a sweet story, while I was reading it… I must confess that I thought of you." Emilio smiled. And you were dumbfounded.
"Why?"
"Hmm… Read on to find out, I guess? I don't want to tell you just yet."
"Booo, what a killjoy you are." You pouted, opening the book and went to the first page – but before you got a single word in, Emilio sat down beside you at a super close distance. Your thighs were touching and he was leaning incredibly close to you, it made you a little flustered at how close both of you were to each other. "E-Emilio? You're a little bit too close…"
"Oh, forgive me. It seems like I got carried away, I just wanted to read along with you and see your reaction." He apologized but never moved away and instead wrapped an arm over your shoulder and pulled you closer. "There. This way, I can see the book more comfortably, don't you think so?"
There was no way he wasn't doing this on purpose. A skill you developed was differentiating Emilio's expressions since he had a smile on his face. And, no doubt, he was teasing you with that small glint of mischief in his eyes. "I can't read like this, I wouldn't be able to focus. So… if you don't mind, could you pull away?"
"Hmm – are you that distracted by me?"
"Well, yes. Who wouldn't get distracted when someone gets this close to them."
"Do you hate it?"
"It's not like I hate it but… Wait – why are you even asking that question in the first place!? You're a demon in disguise trying to make me say embarrassing stuff!"
"Haha! Don't worry, I was just joking. I wouldn't want you to hate me after all, I think I might go crazy if that ever happened." He smiled but his words were betraying him. When he said he thinks he'll go crazy, it's safe to assume that he will go crazy. That's just the kind of person he is. "That's why, I'll quit it for now. I'll just let go of you but I won't leave your side. I wouldn't want to miss seeing the cute expressions you make."
"Or…" The devil in disguise opens his mouth once more, the impish side of him leaking out. "I can read it to you if you'd like. Just like a bedtime story, my room is just a few steps away if you want to lie down."
"No thank you!" You immediately shut down the idea, clutching the book against your chest and stood up while putting steps between you two. The heat in your face wouldn't leave. "I can read it by myself! Or I can just ask Cyrus to read it to me – I know you're terribly busy with duties as the second in command…"
"That wouldn't be a problem. As long as it's you, I wouldn't mind doing anything." His smile was so radiant and innocent yet the words he spoke made you think that the real meaning behind those words were something you'd rather not see happen in reality.
"No, no! I insist. Please just stay there."
"... This feeling must be the one the Prince felt when Cinderella kept running away from him during the ball." He closed his eyes, and for once the atmosphere surrounding him turned a little cold – or perhaps that was just your imagination. But he was quick to switch his mood, his usual smile plastered on his face once more.
"Well unlike him, I don't plan on letting you go just yet. It's still far too early to say goodbye – don't you think so? My precious Cinderella."

my place
Emilio was never the type to hold himself back from things – especially during battles where he had to draw his blade from its sheath and brand his blade towards the opponent. One thing he learned during his days as a knight-in-training was that holding back during a fight is an insult towards your opponent, and with his gentle and warm personality, he never held anything back when it came to fights. It's only proper for him to do so – or so he says.
He applied the same thing when it came to love and relationships. He need not hold back when it comes to expressing his affection for his partner, but that kind of thing could become suffocating if he doesn't know when to let go. So for the longest time, he had no interest of the sort and continued on with his life as a devoted knight in Chevalier.
But the heart wants what it wants and there's barely anything he can do about it if his heart gets stolen by another. Emilio's hands are covered in vermilion despite being klein blue – if he loves someone, they must be someone who can acknowledge the fact that he is different from other knights. He will stain his hands if it meant protecting those precious to him without another thought, he was less of a kind knight and more of a cruel murderer.
But his demeanor is the same as ever – it was why he felt so terrifying at times. He doesn't know why he should feel guilty whenever he kills someone who committed crimes, he doesn't know why they should be given a second chance, and he doesn't know why it should be you who doubts his morals.
His broken view of justice is the one obstructing his relationships.
He buried his head into the crook of your neck, and you could smell the faint scent of dried blood when he came closer to you. You sighed, knowing that he was doing something you didn't like once more. Another incident that Alex didn't know about… if he knew, Emilio would be put in trial and be stripped of his title. You couldn't bring yourself to report him – especially because you were taken with him. Hoping that you could see eye-to-eye one day.
"My place," Emilio was obsessed with that word. He was desperate to call some place the place he belongs to. It was a desperate cry, a plea for help, but you didn't know what to do. Emilio was looking for somewhere he can have a sense of belonging to but you weren't sure if the words about to fall from your lips was something comforting. He whispered, "... I belong by your side, right?"
"... Yes, of course. Your place is by my side. Forever and always, Emilio."
eyes that reflect one's soul
"Your eyes…" You stared lovingly into his blue eyes. Something beneath those eyes was a man on the brink of losing all sense of himself. Those deep blue eyes that remained the same no matter where you look at him – a cold sense of dread washed over you as you remember the day he killed a man so easily with his expression unfazed. How could someone so beautiful have such sharp thorns? But despite everything, your differences, you couldn't help but come to adore the princely knight that always came to save you.
"What about my eyes?" He held a confused expression, and you couldn't help but slip your hand under his chin and pull his face closer to yours. A gesture that caught him off-guard and his eyes widened in shock.
"They're beautiful." Like jewels shining. Like the stars burning in the night sky. Those were not lies, you uttered truthfully what you thought of the knight who stayed incredibly still in your grasp.
"Really?" You nodded. And he continued, "do you want them? Should I gouge them out and give it to you?"
Your eyes widened at such an extreme response – you weren't expecting him to offer his eyes to you. You would've thought he was merely joking had you not known him well enough like back then, but you knew well that Emilio wasn't the type to say such jokes in a serious manner. How terrifying it is to be loved by someone like him, and yet it's all the more fulfilling knowing that all of his love went to you and you only.
You could only let out a small giggle, leaning in to give him a kiss on the forehead. You knew how to handle him most of the time when he said such terrifying things. "Nope, I like how they look like with the rest of your body intact."
"... Really now? I'm flattered… But, don't ever forget that I'm willing to go over and beyond for you. I will do everything in my power to grant you your wishes. I took that vow as a knight."
"How lovely… but the best way to protect me or be of service to me is something a lot simpler than what you would think." You paused, "don't die just yet. I'd also hate it if I saw you injured badly – why do you think I'm reading up so much books about brewing medicine and special concoctions?"
