From the white lights, the darkness comes...

[sageking]

Today's trial was a mixture of regret, anger, guilt, and second-thoughts. Perhaps some people realized that situations and choices weren't to be black or white. However, decisions were made, and whether it'd be through people keeping secrets or causing a ton of chaos...everyone could probably agree on one thing:

They've made their choices and no matter what happened in the coming days, they will lie in the beds they made for themselves. Whatever that should mean for each and every single person still living here.

That being said, there's still new choices to make. In the days to come, what will those be?

Of course you would.

[ well, he can't help but pout at that. of course gilgamesh would think of what belonged to him, and of course romani would think of anyone except himself, even at a time of need.

but he does blush a little as gilgamesh mentions a 'gift'. he can't help but feel somewhat curious, but also slightly bashful. ]

That's...of course, I'll accept it. But I don't have anything to give back...

[ Gilgamesh felt a smile tug at his lips, threatening to come over at the sight of the cute pout. How criminally adorable his Doctor looked like that.

And it's been awhile since he's seen the red little blush...Gilgamesh suddenly felt proud of himself as he leaned forward to give him a quick peck on the Doctor's lips, the urge too strong to resit.

If only he could take him to a nice place. ]

Of course you do. A few kisses here or there will do since you can hardly easily embrace your gracious, beloved King in such a state.

[ He'll seem to reach into his red robes (because he was wearing those right now and I do what I want), bringing out a golden box, so Romani could have an idea he didn't exactly extract it from his robes, maybe but somewhere else. ]

I'll spoil you a little. Inside is a bracelet, and another you'll see on your own. The other item can be a little useful in the case of a dangerous situation, but nothing more than that. So despite its appearance, it has a practical use.

And of course you'd say that...

[ the scoff that comes from roman is weak and, in reality, just an attempt to hide the way he flusters in response to the surprise kiss.

but the golden box makes romani's eyes widen, and he's stunned speechless for a couple seconds before he feels the tears prick again at his eyes. damn it, he's been crying so much lately...

he rubs at his eyes with the back of his good hand, before taking the golden box like it's precious on its own and settling it on his lap. he leans to kiss gilgamesh. it's brief, however, especially with how his injury aches sharply.

however, he manages to smile despite it. ]

...Thank you. Thank you so much.

[ and with that said, he'll open the box. ]

[sageking]

You've grown to known me well, Doctor. And I don't mean simply because you've seen me in action before.

[ Such a beautiful expression Romani held right now. He didn't have much love for technology, but he couldn't help but wonder if it would be so bad for him to take a silly little photo.

And he definitely smiled into the return kiss, which wasn't something he's done often, but he couldn't help it.

There's definitely a bracelet in there as he said, as well. It's unsurprisingly golden, and looked pretty gaudy on it's own, with a few pieces of garnet too. There's also a golden necklace to accompany it, and a trinket with a gem connected to it that looked like it could be worn on a finger but it was more or less fitted by the golden string to be attached to said necklace instead. ]

Hmph. Naturally, I'll accept your gratitude graciously. A King like myself always has room to be generous to those who are worth my time.
