That show of acknowledgement had Desire…just smiling. It was a far more content, much less smug or arrogant than many of his expressions the other times he’d been fronting. Okay, so maybe getting in a good solid jerk-off had done a little in the mellowing him out with a dose of endorphins, but being taken in stride was a good feeling, too. Especially when he’d been reaming Declan pretty roughly at his last appearance.
And not in the fun way.
But he sunk back in his seat further, accepted the plate when it was given to him, and behaved. Being more of an asshole was his tendency compared to the demeanor of their overall ‘Aoba’, but they were still the same. If some idea or another made ‘Reason’ too outright miserable just at the thought of it, Desire couldn’t—or at least, was no longer quite so willing—to completely override him. They were feeling out coexistence with the limited tools they had available to him.
He ate the meal, watched the movie. It was a little dull and slow for him at some parts, but for being a sappy romance, it oddly wasn’t all that bad. As the credits rolled, Desire wagged an approving finger at the screen. He’d stayed dry-eyed the whole time, despite the sad turns of the tale, but Reason felt more somber in the back of their mind. Still, it remained Desire that was present to offer commentary.
“Guy knew what he wanted and stuck with it to the end. I liked that guy.”
