𝘈𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘴 𝘈𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥.

Fulgur looked towards the lurcane, his eyes widened seeing the sun slowly setting down.

"Has time passed so quickly?" Fulgur looked towards Sonny, who was already standing, waiting for Fulgur to lead the trek home.

—I do plan on introducing them to you soon".

Sonny nodded, somewhat satisfied by the explanation that Fulgur made up.

—𝘙𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

Fulgur let out a light laugh, his expression a mix of amusement and feigned sincerity. "It's someone I want to...Keep hidden," Sonny's face contorted to a quizzical expression, and Fulgur smiled genuinely. "For now, of course—

—Truthfully, he is glad that his Ideals were helpf—

"So, who is it?"
Sonny gazed at Fulgur with an intrigued look, and Fulgur hadn't thought that through, as a direct result of his lack of sleep, Fulgur had spent mayhaps a 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 long time to ponder in who would be the victim of his supposed—

The time passed as Fulgur left Sonny to ponder, whilst he consumed a light meal provided by the tavern.

At the same time Fulgur finished eating, he saw a slight spark of understanding in Sonny's eyes. Fulgur couldn't but give a small smile in return, although his attraction to someone isn't wholly—

But instead of saying the truth, Fulgur let out a small sigh. "Love isn't something we always have to rush into, Sonny. Plus, this is my first attraction, no?"

—I want to marry them."

Sonny shot him a dubious, "Wouldn't your attraction lead to the marriage anyway? Why waste time thinking about it?"

"Was it... a joke?" Sonny said, Expression ranging from confusion to borderline annoyance.

"No, but it was definitely exaggerated," a small smile appeared on Fulgur's face. "I had said to Vox that I was interested in someone, just because I had a slight attraction to them, does not mean—

The small lounge was completely silent.

Sonny—bless his soul—had such a serious expression that it was clear that he didn't mean for this to be a laughing matter. But he couldn't help but let a small chuckle slip, seeing Sonny's face twitch in response.

—not theirs to involve themselves in.

Fulgur softly sighed. Given Sonny's look, it wouldn't be surprising that he knew what exactly Vox had told him.

"Have you finally made plans for marriage?"

...What?
—

Signalling a code to the barkeeper, a small trek up the stairs had led them into a secluded seating room, the pros of being a noble, really.

"So, what is it that Vox had told you?"

Sonny had looked around before answering, gaze searching for a soul that might've been nosing in business that—

—head.

Not out in the open, he supposed.

Quickening his pace, Fulgur led the pair into a quaint tavern. The place had a peaceful atmosphere since it was still early afternoon.

—tasked to do, it was why he was one of the best knights in the house of Akuma, maybe even the whole Niji kingdom.

But for some unknown reason, the Knight was avoiding Fulgur's gaze, which means nothing good, he supposed.

"Sonny?"

The knight finally looked towards him, guiltily, and shook his—
