[He knows. Of course he knows - how could he not? After all they've been through, of course he knows. And yet it makes him flush hearing it again and he leans into Argenti to nuzzle against his chin.]

Forever and always. I like the sound of that.

[It's hardly a new promise, and yet it feels so much more real now. A future with Argenti in it is one he wants so badly, and it may come to pass sooner than later. They've got to be close to confronting the God of Conflict, right?]

Thank you, then. For all you've done for me today - and for agreeing to come with me back home.

[ Argenti will never grow unaccustomed to liking the feel of this softness against him. Gentle as it is, it is nothing less then welcoming... ]

Of course, my dearest one.

It felt with such ease that I've made the decision at all. Both in rescuing you, and accompanying you back to your world.

[ ...It's going to be really funny when he discovers chocobo in that world, for explicitly riding purposes. Well, at least they're all going to be harmless, so it will be a fun time (please teach him how to ride one-)

But, yes, they will have one last challenge on the horizon. The God of Conflict being the last true obstacle - though, right now, Argenti feels as if he is nothing in the face of the love that they share. ]

[bloodweapon]

I can never thank you enough for both of them.

[Fray glances up as the palace begins to crack and crumble around them, the environment slowly fading to white and the cold receding.]

Come, let us leave this place. I'd like nothing more than to get away from it.

[beautifulknight]

Yes, let us depart now.

[ Argenti will pull away at the start of the Palace crumbling - no need to stick around in the face of all this. Then, finally, he will extend an arm if the other man is still tired and needs it. ]

You have much needed rest to catch up on, my dear.

[ And, they can talk after that, lovingly as always in the wake of it. ]

[bloodweapon]

[It gets a soft laugh from him, and Fray retrieves his helmet as he accepts Argenti's arm to lean on.]

Yes, I do. I'm looking forward to it.
