Take Initiative.

It seems things have been resolved - peacefully, if more than a little awkwardly for most parties involved. However, there's still work to do here, isn't there? Ryuunosuke shrugs after a long moment; tips his head up a bit. "Hey, Glory? Let everyone up." And apparently that's all it takes, though what that actually does isn't something that happens all at once - rather, panels slide out from the wall, forming a staircase up to that balcony they've been standing on. Mettaton doesn't really wait for the others to join them; he just leaves back through that section of wall they entered from, calling something back over his shoulder. "We've got another room to work from back here, darlings, this shouldn't take too long to work out." >Follow?

[GOOD ENOUGH \o/]

I've got a few of 'em I want to talk to before we ditch. You have any idea where we're going to find your brother?

[...did you just invite yourself along for the ride, goddammit]

[paidinblood]

...No. I have no idea what kind of world we were last on.

[They left for a new world, and then he was here. So it's anyone's guess.]

If you want to help me find him, I... [...] I'd appreciate it.

[A lot, actually.]

[blastiarm]

Your brother's really important to you, so yeah. I'll help you look. Yuri Lowell can wait. That guy's not gonna get himself killed while I'm gone, so there's no need to rush.

[He'll take Kamui's hand again though, squeezing it for a moment.]

I don't want you to worry. You need to relax and I know you're not gonna do that until we find your brother. So that's what we'll do.

[paidinblood]

...I'm glad we're going together.

[There's some genuine relief on his face, and his expression is a lot more gentle than usual... And then he hardens it right back up again, because this isn't that private, and more importantly-]

And after we find him, we're going to kill Yuri Lowell.

[Kamui.]

[blastiarm]

I'm glad too. I'm not ready to leave you just yet, so let's stick together for awhile longer.

And who knows? After Yuri's dead I've got no real attachments to that world. Maybe we can find somewhere else to go and other people to fight!

[i can't believe this shit]

[paidinblood]

...I wouldn't mind. I'm sure there are plenty of people who will put up a challenge.

[How the fuck is he going to explain Zagi to Subaru this is going to be an adventure-]

[blastiarm]

["also this is my murder-happy boyfriend I met while I was trapped in a murdervault, it was a ride let me tell you" should work just fine!!!!]

Definitely. No one quite as good as you, but don't worry. I won't let anything kill me, so you'll never be without me.

[No more fighting all-out which is kind of disappointing...]

[paidinblood]

[He is so lucky Subaru's the most nice and patient person-]

I won't let anything kill you either.

[...He is not ruining his gloves to emphasize this with claws, but the sentiment is still there.]

[blastiarm]

[Subaru does not deserve this.]

You know I've never actually had someone want to protect me? It's cute. Don't ever stop.

[LOOK AT HIS CUTE BOYFRIEND, ISN'T HE ADORABLE]

[paidinblood]

...Of course I want to protect you. You're important to me.

[That's how caring about people works Zagi, you don't just like someone and want them to fall in a ditch and die of eight diseases-]

[blastiarm]

[WELL YEAH, BUT. HE'S NEW TO THIS OKAY!!]

And you're important to me too! That's why I'm willing to wait on killing Yuri. So let's raise hell finding your brother and then go destroy Yuri!

[character development...???]

[paidinblood]

[There's a moment or two where Kamui isn't sure what to do with his face in response to that, but after a moment, he remembers.]

I'd like that.

[blastiarm]

You're really cute when you smile.

[It's part-teasing, part-genuine. He really does like that smile!]

Don't worry, okay? I don't care how long it takes or how many worlds we have to go to. We'll find your brother.

[paidinblood]

[...God dammit how many times are you going to call him cute he is like nine times your age show some respect-]

I'm holding you to that.

[blastiarm]

[YEAH BUT YOU'RE FUCKING CUTE WHY SHOULDN'T HE TELL YOU THAT]

I've got nowhere else I'd rather be.
