Sorry about that. Getting into trouble is something of a family trait, so is doing stupid shit that is probably going to get you in trouble with your friends, family and significant others.
[ there is no avoiding it, it is in their nature. they protect as fiercely as they care and when they care they really really care -- a terrible mix of demon possessiveness and the human capacity for affection. Dante himself has done numerous stupid things to ensure the people he cares about are safe including and not limited to consigning himself to the Underworld knowing he wouldn't be able to escape anytime soon.
there is a shift in his posture at Zulius' question and the half-devil exhales, leaning back into the booth and bringing up his glass to his mouth throwing the whole thing back. the burn is nice, really nice. ]
Yeah, I did. [ because he couldn't let Wolfwood go alone as much as he didn't want to leave Vash behind to stew in his own anxiety. ] Wasn't much of a fight, the guy threw people into dreams intended to trap them there forever or something.
Why are you like that? Because there's getting into trouble and then there's literally nearly getting his stupid ass killed and- [ His breath catches, he holds up a finger, deep breath in. He is not gonna fall apart again. He's teetering on the edge of it and he does not want this. He exhales. ] It was just a lot and I super hated it.
[ Because the concept of actually losing Vergil is not something he's had to wrestle with before- it came close when Krusnik happened but this was... something else. It's left a deep, unpleasant stone of fear in his stomach, and he can't seem to shake it.
So instead, he chooses to focus on Dante. That's easier. He pours them both another drink, frowning.]
A dream huh? Somehow I'm not getting the impression this was the fun kind.
