[Looks over at Emet-Selch and Chiron.]

[chanteuser]

[ no.

she pokes him. ]

[robopriest]

[GESTURES TO THEM???]

[antaressnipe]

[HE CAN ALSO SEE THIS???

BOTH OF YOU.]

I trust we can move on now, yes?

[He had to bust out the teacher voice, I hope everyone in this bar is happy]

[chanteuser]

[ look ]

[robopriest]

Mmmm.

[>8/]

Sure. I need a drink, anyways.

[antaressnipe]

[WHAT DO YOU BOTH WANT FROM HIM, TO PROPOSE?

He is so tired.]

[chanteuser]

[ up the smooch counter dammit, zia’s counting on you ]

[antaressnipe]

[THERE ARE TWO TEENS DEAD

MAYBE CHIRON DOESN'T WANT TO SMOOCH]

[chanteuser]

[ ISN’T ALYSSA LIKE 21???

also wow there’s always early next week? gotta keep the mods happy ]

[robopriest]

[YES??????????]

[antaressnipe]

[NO!!!!!

Both of ya are a hot ass mess and now the teacher is exhausted]

[robopriest]

[Just reaching over to brush through his hair gently with a hand. Look, Chiron, sometimes you just get frustrated when romantic tension won't be resolved for like 1000 years.]

[antaressnipe]

[Listen maybe they're working on it!! In their own way... maybe...

Chiron can't be too cross when Hansa tries to pacify him, though, and sighs a little at the touch, more agreeable after another beat of contemplation.]

I am not angry... the day just finds me tired, is all.

[Hikaru being missing is... a weight on his soul]

[robopriest]

...Same, honestly.

[Hikaru...........who would even think to go after her?]

I hope we don't have another self defense situation on our hands.

[arkitect]

[HE LOOKS EQUALLY TIRED... HE HAS EARS.]

I suppose so, as long as further discussion is not required?

[antaressnipe]

[Seriously they are EONS OLDER THAN BOTH OF Y'ALL]

Certainly not on that matter.

[Steering this back to business]

Will you have any use for my reward? Otherwise I am tempted to be rid of it.

[arkitect]

If you are satisfied enough, then.

[like, if chiron doesn't want anything more for now, that's fine.]

But yes, I'm sure I could find some use for it, if you would prefer to leave it in my care.

[antaressnipe]

[He's crying I'm crying Chiron did not mean it that way and has a minor traffic jam moment inside his own head when he actually sits on what Emet says--]

Ah, I meant more that-- [Rubbing at his neck] Perhaps further discussion on that for another day...

[Y'know what he's just going to slip the wedding RSVP his way, there ya go.]

[arkitect]

...Archer.

[he exhales a long sigh, and takes that rsvp-- then briefly takes chiron's hand, lifting it to press a kiss to the knuckles.]

Later, then.

[robopriest]

[JUST HIDING THE SMUGGEST SMILE BEHIND HIS WINE GLASS]

[antaressnipe]

[Hansa you could stand to not be so gleeful about this]

[chanteuser]

[ to be fair he’s valid ]

[antaressnipe]

[Whelp nevermind the traffic jam in his head turned into a car crash and he just makes an undignified sound in the back of his throat, gaze bouncing between his hand and Emet's face and--]

-- Understood.

[He refuses to look at either Hansa or Alex so he'll just. Meet eyes with the ceiling for now]

[arkitect]

Good.

[he gets a little smirk, there.]
