re: things happening in a modern au thread (Canon is Kyo Kara Maoh!)

[incensus]

I have a fiancé! I'm betrothed! This isn't right!

I don't care if it's an "alternate universe," you made it up for your own selfish purposes and you know it! And I know you're also aware that I love Yuuri! And only Yuuri!

...STOP IT!!

...You can do better.

[Don't kid yourself. Your big brother doesn't consider anyone good enough for you. Get out while you can.]

[incensus]

That's not the point. [Really, he's not going to agree or disagree with that. Partially because it's Gwendal and partially because he's very aware that Yuuri is less than perfect. It just doesn't mean he loves him any less.]

[27th]

[Nervous laughter. Ah hahaha...]

So you met someone?

[incensus]

No!! I have no control over this! [And it's very obviously causing some distress.]

[knitknitpurl]

[Ugh, emotions. Clearly he's too sensible and level headed to ever have those.]

Then what is the point?

[incensus]

[Gwendal pls.]

I still love him and I don't want to cheat on him. I'm not a cheater.

[Even if it is an alternate universe.]

[earthbeneathyou]

[Excuse him he's trying to do everything in the world but laugh, and it's just not going so well.]

[incensus]

[If Terra wasn't taller, Wolfram would attempt to loom over him angrily. In fact, he will still try.]

This is your fault.

[Actually it's his own mun's fault, but Wolfram's going to blame everyone involved anyway.]

[earthbeneathyou]

How is it my fault?

[He finally can't help a chuckle. Wolfram just gets so bent out of shape about things, it really is adorable, at least he's smart and obliging enough to avoid saying so.]

The way I see it, it's my and your muns fault. Blaming me isn't going to do any good, I'm just as subject to their wills as you are.

[incensus]

[That chuckle is far from appreciated. And he knows Terra's right about it not being his fault. That doesn't make anything less frustrating, though.]

Well it's not happening with anyone else, is it?! It's happening with you! You're playing a part in it!

[But by that faulty logic, so was he.]

[earthbeneathyou]

I think it happens to everyone these people play. Not just us.

[Okay but seriously:]

Besides, it's not as if you magically stopped loving this guy, right? Yuuri.

[incensus]

[He huffs a bit. He doesn't have much to say on that first statement, as he's not aware of there being any other characters his mun plays that are currently getting this treatment.]

Of course not! That's the entire point!

[earthbeneathyou]

Isn't that all that matters? The person who has your heart is always first no matter what the circumstances are.

[incensus]

[His anger deflates.] ...And how does that excuse the fact that I'm being unfaithful against my will?

[earthbeneathyou]

The fact that it's against your will, maybe? [Just saying, Wolfram. Just saying.] I don't think mun shenanigans count as far as romance.

[incensus]

They don't? [He's not sure he agrees with that. It still felt awfully like being a cheater. There's a lot of guilt over it, especially since he's always hounding Yuuri about being the one to cheat on him.]

[earthbeneathyou]

Nope. It isn't something you would do without outside intervention, it doesn't make sense for it to count. [A pause.] Where I'm from there's this idea -- When your heart is connected to someone you always find your way back to them, no matter what. Just think of it that way. Eventually you'll be with Yuuri again, everything before then is just filler.

[incensus]

That's a rather romantic view of things. [Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Wolfram already holds plenty of romantic beliefs.] And it may have some merit to it.

[There had seemed to be a lot of fate involved, or at least a lot of coincidences, as far as he and Yuuri were concerned. He'd even given up hope of ever seeing Yuuri again, not too terribly long ago. Yet he'd come back, even after they'd been told he couldn't.]

[earthbeneathyou]

Then don't worry so much. I'll try to avoid being too much of a pain in the ass.

1/2 I don't--

[incensus]

[Wow, that... That phrase actually results in quite an embarrassed blush, along with a look of shocked realization.]

2/2 I'm sorry?

[incensus]

[He's not... He's not even going to say anything, he's just going to glower.]

oops I'm still bad at multiple comments sorry!

[earthbeneathyou]

[???? Wolfram?? What??? Terra is so lost.


Wait, no. He's not -- He can't possibly be thinking -- That?

.................................. He is.]

If that's the first place your mind goes to then obviously I shouldn't feel so bad about fucking your brains out. I didn't mean it that way, Wolfram.

I'm sorry for springing them on you!

[incensus]

You don't have to announce it to the whole world!!

[He's not going to explain himself for his mind going there, okay, CLEARLY there are things going on elsewhere that forcibly shoved his mind in that particular direction.]

No problem. They're fun, I just can't reciprocate'm

[earthbeneathyou]

You sort of implied it already, though. [He really didn't think it was that big of a deal, but hey nice dress there, Wolfy. Enabling Terra's mild cross dressing fetish wasn't going to help this situation.]

[incensus]

No, I didn't! Reacting to your poor choice of words isn't the same as implying anything!!

[Flustered. So flustered. And yet, if he was really worried about announcing things to the world, it would probably be better if he didn't shout so much. But he does.]

[earthbeneathyou]

[Wolfram you're really implying things especially with the yelling. But he won't poke that topic too much, it's useless.]

Look, do you feel any better? Even just a little bit?

[incensus]

[The topic being dropped is definitely a good thing, as he quickly seems to...un-bristle.]

...well it's not like I have any control over any of it. [And apparently that fact isn't quite as distressing for him anymore. So, yes. The answer is yes.]

[earthbeneathyou]

Good.

[Terra looks like he's going to add something, but he stop himself.]

I'm sure you'll be with Yuuri again. Just be patient. He's too lucky to stay away for very long.

[It's not what he wants to say, but it seems like an appropriate ending.]
