As a responsible adult and a good friend, I would never let Zaveid be your wingman. And as for Sergei? He might be more pure than Lailah the Pure. I couldn't believe, either, but it was funny as hell. Sorey knows, but it was never a secret. More like nobody asked.
[ she shrugs. no big deal. rose is getting mildly concerned about how rapidly mikleo is consuming such strong alcohol, though, and she's thinking she might want to take that bottle away from him before things get too out of hand. well... he seems alright for now? this is nice. rose likes hearing his honest feelings, and maybe her own judgment isn't at its best, either.
mikleo missing her... it's definitely the alcohol making him talk, yeah, but hearing something so genuine still warms her to the core, warmth stronger than what the alcohol gave her. rose's never knew he cared so much, and maybe she should have. her expression softens, both eyes and smile. both her experiences here and her time away from the others have given her clarity she didn't have before. ]
... I've said it before, but I'd miss you guys, too. Both of you. I know nothing changed back home, but if it had... things just aren't the same without you and the others. Our Sorey here is my one and only partner in crime, after all! I mean, I'm the one doing all the crime, but regardless. And... I miss home, too.
[ she tosses and turns mikleo's thoughts over in her head, analyzing them as best as her not entirely functioning brain can. ]
But you're right. Sorey has an enormous amount of love to give. I've never seen a person love so many humans and seraphim and plants and boring ruins so much. It's cheesy, but when everything starts to seem so hopeless, he reminds me that there's so much good still worth fighting for. He... told me I was his hero. I love him, too, Mikleo.
And, romantically? Yep, it'd sail right over his dumb head. I could tell him I love him any time, and it wouldn't change a thing-- not that I'd want it to. It's sweet, but it makes things way tricky when it comes to... stronger feelings.
That's why, as your wingman, I'm gonna tell you right now that you've gotta act on it. Give him hints. Hold his hand for no reason, get closer to him than usual when there's a chance to. Stuff like that. And if that doesn't work?
[ which it prooobably won't, considering how physical they are already... ]
There's only one thing left to do. Actions speak louder than words.
[ looking him straight in the eye, even rose looks the slightest bit flushed, but there's a good chance mikleo might have to resort to drastic measures. which... ]
Okay, don't flip out on me. You guys are sort of obsessed with The Little Mermaid, right? Don't ask, just... word of mouth, like I said, everyone talks about you guys. So you remember that song, Kiss the Girl? You might just wanna change that pronoun and go for it when the moment seems... right. Uh, without the singing sea creatures.
