... Looks like it might unfortunately be relevant after all.

Well?

[concasse]

... Yeah, I'm in.

[His eyes drop to the floor]

Either we're gonna get possessed, coerced, or scammed into killing at this rate, so might as well keep some failsafes in place.

[axilium]

[he breathes in, before letting it back out, slowly.]

We'll see what the future holds, I guess.

[concasse]

Mm.

[...]

And it's fine, y'know -- if you ever wanna back out. I'm not gonna hold you to this shit.

[axilium]

... I'll keep that in mind, but I probably won't. Likewise, to you.

[concasse]

[A snort, because... well. Belph already knows that a former Editor isn't going to back out of anything.

Sanji still gives him a vague smile of appreciation]

Yeah, yeah. Don't take this to mean you get to clock out early. We're still gonna need you to stick around.

[axilium]

Ugggh, making me do work...?

[concasse]

Well like hell I'm working alone!

[axilium]

Fine, fine, in honour of our friendship, I'll make some semblance of an attempt.

[concasse]

[Belph you can't say the F word and not expect Sanji to beam like a fuckin troll in your direction]

Wonderful~! Glad to hear it, Belph-kun~!

[cursed]

[axilium]

Wow, that was disturbing. Please never do that again.

[concasse]

Yeah, it kinda hurt my soul to do it.

[No regrets tho]

[axilium]

Good. Suffer.
