[ he's staring at the pocky

and then he reaches for it with his hand and snaps it so he can eat the rest ]

[ tails wagging expectantly. ]

[ and then Scaramouche just snaps his half off to eat it. ]

That’s…

That’s not how it’s done.

Here. [ grabs another and holds it out to Scaramouche. ] Let’s try the reverse.

[ he's clearly enjoying the reaction. But he smiles, taking the pocky and putting it between his lips ]

Mmm?

[ cups scaramouche’s cheeks and bites the other end, leaning in to kiss him shortly after. it’s a bit weird, what with the snack added to the mix, but the chocolate does add a little extra kick to the kiss… not that he thinks Scaramouche really needed it. ]

[ he's enjoying it - smiling into the kiss as he kisses him back, his arms going around his neck ]

You didn't need to give me a snack if you wanted me to kiss you.

No, but… like I said, it seemed like it could be fun. A little twist on a regular kiss. [ tugs him flush against himself. ] I do think you taste fine on your own. [ kisses him again. ]

What are you doing in here anyway?

Deciding on costumes for my next performance.

Will you come watch me?

Of course. I would love to come watch. Who will you be performing for?

Alexander. But Cosmo will be present as well. ... I might inform Yvette and Pentium as well.

It sure seems like you're getting along with your unit.

They're tolerable. They're no better or worse than the Fatui.

aw, c'Mon, we're infinitely better.

Did you miss the memo that said everyone hated you?

Shutup Scaramouche. You're far more hated than I am.

That's what you say. No one can stand you. Except those recruits who might want to fuck you instead.

Go ahead and continue to be delusional. It’s no skin off my back.

Oh, and when did you plan on telling me you asked for some help if and when we decided to dig around in your chest, hm, the day of.

Whenever we got around to you actually digging around my chest. What's so surprising? If you take my heart I'm not going to survive that. Do you think you'll be clearminded enough to call on SensitIV and Pep!Pep after?

It would have been nice to discuss something like that together, given what we’re doing. [ ripping out his heart ( maybe gnosis ) is kind of intimate. ]

Aren't you all chummy with Alexander? Why are you bothered?

No reason. Just forget it. [ pops another pocky stick into his mouth and hops off the stage. ]

If you don't tell me, how am I supposed to understand. If anything I thought having him on standby would make things easier for you. For all I care you can keep my heart in your hands for as long as you'd like. You can even eat it.

The worse that will happen is that I'll meet that lady again.

...it's an intimate exchange. I didn't want anybody else involved, but it's not like I don't understand the need for precautions.

[ he stills, turning to stare at him. ] I'm not letting you meet that witch.

Of course it's intimate. I wouldn't let anyone else dig into my chest and take out my heart.

Does it really cheapen it to know you can ask him for help afterwards? He won't be in the room with us.
