[Oh, getting right to it, huh?]

Uh... high up places, from sunset to starlight. Like a treetop or a roof in town.

[revengier]

[ He sure is! Would Ahito expect anything less? ]

When you're ready, I'll take you to one. The roof of the manor should be just fine, shouldn't it?

[dyingtohealyou]

[Making a face.]

We can find a different roof. Have you ever noticed how many people here like the manor rooftops?

[revengier]

Not particularly. Then again, I don't make a habit of hanging out on rooftops.

[ He prefers to read on the ground, where he won't potentially fall down. ]

There should be plenty to pick from in the city, then.

[dyingtohealyou]

You should try it more often. When you find the right spot, the view's great.

Maybe it'd even help you unwind for once.

[revengier]

I can unwind on my own perfectly fine.

[ Wow, first you insult his storytelling on the beach and now you call him uptight? Some soulmate you are, Ahito! ]

...The view from the observatory roof is nice, if you haven't ventured there yet.

[dyingtohealyou]

[You don't get to say that when you like obnoxious people specifically, Kurapika.]

I went once, but there was someone strange there... never bothered to check it again afterwards.

[revengier]

Really? We didn't see anyone there, but we mostly stayed on the roof...

[ Thank god they didn't. Would've really harshed the vibes. ]

[dyingtohealyou]

"We"... you mean you and Akira?

[revengier]

...Yes?

[ He feels like he's walking into a trap here. ]

[dyingtohealyou]

[He just makes a considering hum.]

[revengier]

Go ahead and say it.

[dyingtohealyou]

Sooo... that's where you two go on dates, huh.

[revengier]

[ It's a good thing his hair covers his ears, because the tips of them turn red. ]

...That's where we went on our first one. We looked at the stars. [ ... ] Usually, we go to a cafe or shopping.

[dyingtohealyou]

I'm surprised you two find the time. Feels like I've always got something or another going on, here.

[revengier]

To tell you the truth, I have more free time now than I did back home. So... it's easy to find time to go on dates or otherwise spend time together.

[dyingtohealyou]

Makes sense, I guess. You guys move fast, too.

[revengier]

Move fast...? What do you mean?

[ He frowns, eyebrows furrowed. ]

[dyingtohealyou]

We haven't really been here that long, but you guys are already dating?

[revengier]

A month and a half is long enough to get to know someone when you spend a lot of time with them.

[ His gaze flicks up to Ahito. ]

Both the Central mission and his possession propelled us together, among other things.

[dyingtohealyou]

Sure, but dating's kind of its own thing, isn't it?

We're close as partners, but it's not like we're expected to keep in contact - much less stay together - after all this is said and done.

[revengier]

[ It is, and Ahito's right about that. Honestly, Kurapika had expected to leave everyone behind and go back home too, but... ]

He plans on staying together after this, regardless of where that ends up being.

[dyingtohealyou]

Yeah, see? It's a lot more serious than just getting to know someone.

[He didn't really doubt it, though, because Kurapika's way to serious not to treat a relationship like that with all the respect it's due.]

Does that mean he's planning to follow you back to your world...?

[revengier]

If I decide that's where we go... then yes. He'll help me attain my goals.

[ Of which Kurapika has a whole mess of feelings about, since he thinks Akira has no business helping him with something so gruesome. ]

[dyingtohealyou]

...

You'd really bring him along into that...?
