[Just. Leave any and all complaints about Niles here, please.]
[It had taken Saïx awhile to return to the temple after dinner that evening. Between his conversation with Sora and with the grumpy kid that said he reminded him of someone else, he needed to relax and think things over.
When he gets there, he heads straight for Leo.]
Sorry to bother you, however, I need to speak with you about Sora.

[Leo barely resists the urge to facepalm. What did Sora do after he spoke to him?]
What is it?
What is it?
[He promised Niles, so...]
Father, I wanted to let you know that I'm all right and in no mortal danger.

[On the evening of April 30th, Saïx places two take-out containers of fried rice from the god Thanatos in the fridge. One has Leo's name on it and the other has Niles's name. Aside from that, there's no other indication of what it is. Despite being healed from eating the meal, he's too tired to bother with letting either of them know that there's food for them in the fridge. He just goes right to bed.
The food will be there the next time Leo goes to get something to eat.]

This is gonna sound awful, but you can't tell Sora this.
I almost killed someone today and I need to find a place to hide for a few days.
[This is possibly the second worst way he's texted someone since coming here.]

I see. I'll find space for you here until you're ready to talk to him.
We also recently acquired a hot springs.

Leo. I want to make something very clear to you. And I want you to listen to this before you say anything.
I do not hate you. I have never used the word hate ever to describe my feelings towards you, but I fear that's what you're getting from my actions.
Distrust, uneasiness, and concern are the three I would most use to describe it. You say things that make me think that we're closer than simply god and shinki. But your actions speak differently than that. I've brought up issues before, but all you seem to do is brush them off and hope that I'll forget.
I do feel you prefer Saix over myself. You seem to fight with him far less, but perhaps that's my own doing in distrusting you for so long. I don't believe, however, that it's done consciously.
I want to make this very clear. I want nothing more than to trust you and work together. But you make it an almost impossible task for me.
I'll return to the temple on the 8th. I ask you don't respond to this. I want to talk to you face to face.
Thank you.

This is just to acknowledge that I received and read your message.
You may wish to know of your other shinki encouraging bodily harm on the other due to some misfortune on the bbs.

You know sometimes I wonder if I have adults for shinki or children. Niles posted a....personal ad pretending to be Saix and this I guess is Saix's retaliation since I forbade murder.
On a completely unrelated note, do you have any bourbon?

Ah... father? I'm not sure if you know yet, but Odin's here, and he's acting a little strangely.
I didn't know, I've been busy with...ah never mind. How strange is he acting?
Is it on... wait... yes! Hello and good day to you Odin, mysterious god of wisdom and dark magics.
[There is Owain, standing there in a stupid pose. His finger less gloved hand half obscuring his face.]
I find myself bereft of guidance. A sword without a hand to wield it. Another god granted me a revelation and guided me to you. If you can make use of me, a shinki new to these lands but holding great and terrible power, I will pledge my services to you. These ayakashi should be met with force and I have not the power to finish them alone. As the hero beyond life and death it is my wish; no, my destiny to face and defeat them.

[Leo is responding to this on voice because he's pretty sure his jaw is hitting the floor. There is so much irony in this single video.
....Did Takumi direct him here?]
Unfortunately I already have two shinki and my temple only has so much room, otherwise I would consider naming you. Who was it that pointed you to me?

Have you ever been to an aquarium?
[He swears this is important.]

I...don't think I even know what that is. Why?
Either cheese made in a sock or cheese that smells and tastes like a sock. Probably limburger. Why?
Sorry to leave a message so early- and knowing you you're probably asleep. So don't worry too much about responding.
I'm just letting you know, in case something happens- my shinki, a friend of his, and I are going to try and meet with Fuujin. It shouldn't be anything too... volatile, but if I don't respond to any calls, that's why.

Sorry that this is over the phone device but are you busy this afternoon? I need some advice on a matter.
Phone device.
[Sorry, he can't help but chuckle because that's cute.]
I should be free. What's wrong?

...if I ever go that far, you have permission to strike me down.
Of course, Aymeric. I know you better than to think you would, though.
Would he release you afterwards? If he will, then I don't need to speak to him but if he won't I'd like to talk to him.
[Taking his hand, thoughts rush quickly as he cannot help but ponder about what ifs and possible outcomes. Mainly if someone were to ask him weither he would find love, he would reply that as much as he would, his duty to Ishgard and her people came before his own needs. It did not matter even if there were possible fleeting moments between others, he could not abandon his countrymen when they needed guidance the most. And having that weight lifted from his shoulders in this world, he can live almost like a normal person.
Minus the godhood.
But strange enough, he did find someone he could openly love and not worry what would happen to them; Ishgard had a tendency of having people marry but end up having affairs on the side and that has worried him a lot. But when he's with Leo, he's at ease. He's not Lord Commander or Chancellor or whatever title he's been given, he's simply Aymeric. He's been to Leo's temple many times before but this is the first where they're more than likely alone and...well, you get the point. He doesn't need to speak right now as they go inside, just lightly squeezes Leo's hand.]

[Leo knew that one day he'd probably have to marry for stability if nothing else, so he never expected to fall in love with someone like this. He never expected the rush of emotion and longing, the joy at simply being around him, the urge to literally run away from his responsibilities to go with Aymeric wherever he might end up.
It was strange. Good thing Leo was used to strange.
They arrive at his temple and head inside, the building dark and quiet.]
Mind your feet, someone left carved ravens at a shrine the other day and it's started a pattern. I don't know if anymore have shown up here while I was out.

[Hitsu and Shizuo told him it wasn't too big of a deal that people can sleep more then a day and it's not weird. But it is weird! Aymeric hasn't ever done it. At least, that he knows of. Leo is Aymeric's best friend, maybe he can help or use his magic powers.]
leooo can you come look at mrick
hes ben sleeping and wont wake up mayb you can use magic to make him wake up??

[A voice call will be easier for Goten, Leo feels, so he calls him after getting the text.]
Goten? What do you mean, he's asleep?
Goten? What do you mean, he's asleep?
Remember him now, I take it?
My father made me take him on.
My father made me take him on.
"Surprise" party for Niles's birthday tomorrow, need your help.
Besides booze and cheese and crackers, what can I do?
Also, it's in your temple.

Next time ask first.
Nothing too sweet, and I'll arrange for food and everything. Sex, obviously, though that goes without saying. He likes the moon and watching the stars, which if you don't know by this point I'm not sure what to tell you. Other than that you're really on your own. I just give Niles expensive bourbon every year.
