More than you know.

[Certainly not a bad sort of surprise, though. He hadn't intended to continue being a guardian for Mafuyu, but... the cards had all fallen into place, and now here they are. In contrast, he had intended to check in on Arven when they first met, but his self-sufficiency (and the shaky first meeting) had caused that relationship to be a bit slower to form.

As his de facto son in law, though? Arven won't need to decide he needs him on his own, he'll simply be there.]

Only in jest~ [...Mostly.] Though considering your diet, I'm certain you'd taste quite good...

[He's. Actually acting like he's considering it. So maybe a little bit of teasing threatening, as a treat.]

Ah, but I know you meant it, so see to it that you do follow through. You both deserve it.

I really don't like how you said that... [He even shudders for good measure!] I don't wanna be your lunch unless you're in a pinch, so consider me warned.

[Oh, but now he has another challenge that he could take on: making food for Celeste! It's probably an impossible one...but he's not gonna write it off just yet.]

Thanks, though. [His smile returns.] I can still hardly believe it... I guess I really do have Braphine to thank for letting me and Mafuyu meet. We click on a level I've never had with anyone else.

[Not even his friends back home.]

[cirquedesang]

Good, good.

[Sometimes being a horror genre creature has its benefits--

But oh... that challenge... If he could manage it, he'd certainly have a lucrative business in his world, cooking for vampires who just want to be able to taste food again... Good luck, Arven.]

While I cannot say I enjoyed being pulled here against my will... [And honestly, he doesn't think anyone has. Even some of the people who were dead.] She does seem to have a knack for picking people who would suit one another, doesn't she?

[supherb]

Yeah...even if it didn't seem that way at first.

[He still can't forget how traumatic the first day was for him. While things certainly haven't gotten any easier since then, he's found some really good friends here- some more than friends.]

She definitely isn't the goddess of bonds for nothing.

[cirquedesang]

[Truth be told, the first day was... probably the easiest. Ah. But paradoxically, the bonds made here have made all the hardships seem easier.

Perhaps that was the point.]

She certainly isn't.
