“That’s the consequence of ambiguity. Even with people you’re close to, there’s no guarantee they’ll understand your intentions.” Ludger could attest how often he had no idea what Julius was thinking; it was semi-intentional on Julius’ end, but there were times Julius worried if Ludger questioned how much he loved him. “Sometimes it’s best to be direct and say how you feel.

A large hand met the wall beside the petite blond, amber eyes gazing down at her as a charming smirk spread across his warm lips. He had just come into work and had noticed the beauty standing there, leaning against the wall and likely waiting to be seated in the diner, he simply couldn’t stop himself. She was far too cute not to approach. “Hello gorgeous,” he greeted, a finger pushing his glasses up his face a bit though he never broke eye contact. “How about instead of waiting for a booth you join me over at the bar? I’ll save a spot specifically for you.”

|| 昨夜 || :: despite how the BLACK WARRIOR didn't admit it out loud, his presence proved itself to be one that rooted her to earth and reminded her of the passage of TIME itself. he was an anchor holding her sane in the world littered with blood and wars. humans or not, living beings cling to those who made them feel alive and gave them a reason to go on with each passing day. it's a wonder if he realized just how much his appearance and existence meant to her. ah, she was getting sentimental. he'd scold her if he knew.
