When Aoba awoke in the morning, his eyes were hazel once again. Desire was still right there behind him, of course, but the night before had been remarkably…normal. Desire had still acted out in a few ways, sure, but on the whole everything had been fine. Dinner, a movie, a little more insight into Declan’s character. It marked the first time Aoba could really start to think that he and his other aspect might actually be able to get along on a normal day-to-day. That being ‘Desire’ didn’t have to mean releasing only a more indecent, inappropriate side of himself.
Hazel eyes still greeted Declan when he returned, but they shifted back to gold before Aoba got on the Sparrow behind him. Nothing untoward about it, thankfully, and Desire only stayed up front long enough to enjoy the adrenaline rush of zooming along on the speedy machine. When exploration and research became the focus again, Reason reappeared.
Even Ren had stopped glaring so hard. Attentive ears may have caught Desire calling him ‘pup’ instead of ‘mutt’, this time.
Settled in the research station, finishing off a biscuit of his own, Aoba offered a little shrug to the Guardian’s remark. “I guess that depends on why you prefer it. Do you know, or is it just the feeling you get when you’re there?”
