[ the daemon's laughter vibrates throughout, an inescapable sensation that leads the erune's heart to flutter a beat or two. he snuggles closer once he's pulled right in, face buried against tanned skin, as if trying to hide the flushed expression that now creeps all over his face. it appears rokurou isn't the only one who is feeling flustered, but this is for a different reason entirely.
one he can't pinpoint just yet, and yet it's real and undeniable all the same. ]
You know how I was back then... I didn't believe I was worthy of you.
[ a monster like him, surrounded by darkness and weighed down by his own guilt. he lived life as though the very next second could be his last, and there were times where he even wished for death to claim him. rokurou gave him a reason to stay, kept giving him more and more reasons why he should hang on — if that isn't the equivalent of a light at the end of a dark tunnel, then he doesn't know what it is.
(quietly, he pictures the daemon as the sun, a vibrant thing that can chase away the shadows with little to no effort.)
of course, as it always is whenever things get too vulnerable around them both, either one of them can easily ruin the moment. this time, it's rokurou's fault... and six can't help but sigh. a tiny bit exasperated, but also stupidly fond, because of course the daemon would want something like this. ]
You really don't think about anything else but fighting me and doing that... do you?
[ not that he'll have the daemon any other way, but he'll leave it at that for now.
he'll worry about going through this six more times when morning comes. ]
