"Am I mean because I speak the truth? It is temporary, this makeshift family. When you or the angels return to your rightful world, all will be forgotten." He had no way of knowing if that would actually be the case. One thing was certain, though: they would be separated.

"And, you think saying all that will make me see you less as an enemy? Make me suddenly trust you?" He asked. Even Sephiroth at his worse when it came to socializing knew better. He knew Aurelius and Klaus might one day disappear, but the fact for him was that they were here with him now and they were all happy.

"I've told you. I think it's funny. Don't believe me? Ask Vi."

Sephiroth stared at him before grabbing his collar. He pulled Shadow close and leaned in as if to bite him. Instead, he placed a gentle kiss on the tip of his ear.

"Oh? Decided Im worthy of words again?" Shadow looked quite smug and nestled himself quite comfortably against Sephiroth.

Sephiroth doesn't even try to fight against Shadow's touch. He relaxed towards Shadow and nestled back against him.

And, that's the crack Shadow needed to form. When he peeked over his shoulder, he shot Sephiroth a toothy grin and even a wave.

Sephiroth blushed a light pink when he saw Shadow's grin and turned back around again.

"Sooooo cold, Sephiroth..."

Sephiroth faltered for just a moment before quickly stepping away. He wasn't going to laugh!

"That wasn't a no..." Shadow laughed to himself as he clipped the mirror back onto his belt, now opting to hang off of Sephiroth.

Great, he got someone to give him a helping hand, which would earn him some type of community brownie points or something. (Or so he hoped.) Keeping the youth out of trouble and all that shit.

Sephiroth caught the bag and took the long claw from the man. He'd definitely like to not touch any trash if he can help it. He followed after Enjin and started to pick up the litter around the park.

"Hahaha!! What!! No, you're not getting this!" Shadow snorted, "If it breaks it won't do anything! It's not real! Just a replica!"

Sephiroth glared at him and punched him in the arm.

"Absolutely not, that demon was praying on the downfall of Hyrule." Dumb question!!

Sephiroth's hand shot up and grabbed Shadow's wrist to stop him.

"Wh..what?" The candid and earnest response caught the shade off guard and he looked like he was caught in headlights.

"hmm, yeah, anyone whose life wasn't attached to the mirror would do it. Do you think that wind demon would have done the same?" Sephiroth placed his hands behind his back and tilted his head.

"What? Don't act so surprised!" The Stars were just that powerful!

No wonder Shadow always seemed to be so casual about death and dying. He was technically dead and had sacrificed himself for the greater good.

Sephiroth paused and looked up at War. It had been a long time since they saw each other and he gave a polite nod to him. Things had been feeling a lot brighter for him in many ways and he was surprised it was noticeable.

@edgedwing - Wanna pet Morpheus? HE A GOOD BOI.

Sephiroth had been able to keep his cool around Morpheus due to Aurelius being near by at the party. Now, he was stumbling backwards to put some distance between him and the dog, trying to hide his fear.
