[Game 10] Epilogue

[arsgoetia]

That little diversion aside, with no sign of reoccurring, a few hours pass with the group together and Zoey is humming as she gathers materials for the magic circle in the basement.

There's still time before midnight to have whatever moments with everyone else you like before going home, but you can feel in the air that it'll be soon.

"I'm getting better and better at it," David says hesitantly.

[virtuallyroyalty]

... and that's the problem, right?

[arsgoetia]

David smiles ruefully. "I don't know if I'm doing it as an escape, or . . ."

[virtuallyroyalty]

[shrugs lightly]

I can't exactly blame you. I guess if you found things you can do with your body now that you couldn't as a shadow it might help?

[arsgoetia]

David licks his lips, giving Kazuki a dubious, flushed look. "Um. I am pretty sure I found one . . . but . . ."

[virtuallyroyalty]

Y-you know what I mean!

[arsgoetia]

"I'm afraid of that, too," David says faintly.

[virtuallyroyalty]

Wha—

[okay how does one even take that]

[possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

"Not you!"

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

Well how else am I supposed to take something like that?! I mean, you mean beyond the whole normal freak outs, right!

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

David's cheeks are flushed a dull red, and he shifts a little, pushing himself halfway off Kazuki.

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

[—catches David's arm? Looking simultaneously unsure and determined, and taking a deep breath!!]

Okay! Okay. Okay okay okay. That doesn't stop... or change what's important to us, so...?

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

"No—!"

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

Eh??

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

David hiccups a little, pressing his face against the side of the couch. "Nnnnh . . ."

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

. . . David.

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

". . . do you remember, that succubus that worked for my dad?"

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

Ye...es? The one you guys were worried about me getting near to?

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

"Yeah. There's a reason for that." David's expression is cold.

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

. . . what.

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

"I was trapped in a hospital with her . . ."

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

[um. UM. Kind of... waiting for David to finish.]

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

David doesn't . . . seem to be able to, glancing almost fearfully at Kazuki's expression, fingers curling in his own shirt.

Re: [possible tw]

[virtuallyroyalty]

[...runs a hand down his own face, kind of going through a jumble of emotions, but has gone pretty thin-lipped.]

So you're saying she took advantage of you.

Re: [possible tw]

[arsgoetia]

"It's not like I could say no . . ."
