Team Tinies IDK WHAT'S HAPPENING

[blinged]

Good afternoon, Master! I hope my older self didn't disturb you too terribly!

[For Tokiomi's sake, he carefully tugs his shirt, now too big, down to cover himself appropriately before carefully folding up his pants.]

I suppose no misconduct is a surprise anymore, though.

[prebeard]

[Ohhh my god this is really weird.]

Well, I did just throw a youth potion at him, apparently.

[blinged]

And your aim was splendid!

[Gil smiles - he's pleased to see Tokiomi is, for the most part, happy and well. They parted so suddenly last time, being able to see his Master now is a relief and an accomplishment both]

[prebeard]

So it was.

[The last time he saw this Gil, he was sinking into the mud of the Holy Grail. Seeing his smile again takes him back -- somehow it feels like he can still smell the smoke and feel the heat the flames.]

It's good to see you.

[blinged]

It is! Might I ask how long it's been?

[prebeard]

Roughly a decade since the end of the fourth holy grail war. A year since I was able to give you a second life.

[blinged]

I see I had little to worry about, then! And how is adult life with him?

[Inquiring minds, okay]

[prebeard]

Troublesome, often. Interesting, always. But we have made good on the foundations you laid.

[blinged]

[Ah... yes, that's truly good to hear. A smile, warm and lazy, tugs at his lips and he rolls over on the bed to watch Tokiomi. He's certain that kiss was part of this "foundation" Tokiomi is talking about - yes, that must be it. That must mean they're both loved now, doesn't it?

He couldn't be more pleased. With a satisfied little huff, he grabs one corner of a blanket and rolls himself up in it]

[prebeard]

[Somehow it's not surprising to see Gil rolled up in blankets. It just brings back more memories, and Tokiomi can't help but smile.]

Will you spend your entire time here in bed?

[blinged]

If this were Fuyuki, I would be tempted! Perhaps it's lucky that I am curious to see more of this place. Ah, and your family! They're here too, aren't they?

[prebeard]

Mostly, yes. We've all begun to move out, bit by bit.

[blinged]

Then I'll have to work quickly.

[WIGGLES. Well. The "quickly" can come later. He's decided he's still somewhat comfortable here]

[prebeard]

Byakuya is already gone and married. I'm not sure it'd be a shame if you missed him, though. The rest of us are here, but Kariya will be gone soon and your older self & I are planning to return to Europe shortly. We've just yet to decide on a destination.

[blinged]

If you wish to keep him satisfied and manageable, I recommend France or Italy! I understand both countries are famous for wine.

[prebeard]

We were thinking of Italy already. We need only be careful of the church.

[blinged]

If they're smart, they'd know to be careful of me.

[He huffs and settles in his blanket roll - Gilgamesh's impression of the church remains less than stellar, and he surmises that if he's unforgiving already, his older self would be downright impossible]

[prebeard]

He might still be out there, you know.

[Gil will know who. Tokiomi still regrets not letting that man be killed when he had the chance.]

[blinged]

Then if we cross paths, I'll settle thing with him. You would not object, would you, Master?

[prebeard]

I suppose not, so long as it's discreet. I'd rather not bring the Association down on my head, nor on my teacher's.

[blinged]

Then it's a deal! I will quietly take care of the matter if possible.

[prebeard]

That's good. I wouldn't want to see those pompous old fool attempt to talk down to Rider... Or I suppose it would be entertaining, but not quite worth the trouble of your older self's involvement.

[blinged]

[p i n g]

Rider is here as well?!

[prebeard]

In London, with my teacher.

[blinged]

[He unrolls himself and slides out of the bed, tugging the blanket along with him.]

I'll have to send my regards, then! I imagine he's quite taken with this era.

[Yes, time to settle down next to Tokiomi on the floor. Enjoy the tiny Gil burrito.]
