[ good morning? day? what is time honestly? dante doesn't know, he sure as hell lost all concept of it ever since they closed the gate and sealed themselves in the demon world. how long ago was that? fuck, he really lost it, hasn't he? nevermind that, more important things to focus on right now. ]

so thanks for the free phone
could have done with a hot shower and a nice meal but this will have to do
anyway if someone could point me to the nearest, cheapest, motel that'd be great

oh and the name's dante

[ where is he? fuck if he knows. he just really really needs a shower right now. and food, god when was the last time he had a hot meal? let him tell you, the demon world is not known for it's cuisine. ]

[What a fucking loaded question. There's an exhale.]

I mean... yeah? And no. I didn't have an actual real family, in my past life- not until really late, and then I had to save two dumbasses from themselves. So like. Family is ingrained into me in a way that this is gonna fucking kill me no matter what I do or what Dante does. And family's fucking huge for Dante too. So like. To have the family-not-family bullshit Kaisou's pulling is gonna throw him for a loop and I know it's not gonna end well, but at the same time I'm still feeling like that six year old orphan wondering if he'll ever have anything good in his life like a family again.

[A groan, and Nox swallows, sighs. This is such an admission out of him, honestly.]

So basically, it's fucking complicated. Just. Expect that when it comes to my old family.

[drewthetower]

[Ah.]

Okay, first? You're not that six year old orphan, Nox. You have a family this life, and you have me. You're not alone. Second...shit that's complicated.

[August please.]

But also like, you know normal families are complicated, yeah? This just has a few extra layers, and if family's as big to Dante as you're saying you guys'll figure it out, yeah?

[sassery]

I know, I know I'm not. [Contrary to how quickly he answers that, his tone is calmer than before. You're not that six year old orphan. God, he wishes it were easier to force that truth into his mind, because this is exactly Nero's emotions that are hitting him the hardest, right now.

He sighs, but there's a moment where he really thinks it through, at least, before he responds.]

Yeah, I'm hoping. Last thing I want is for him to basically decide that he wants nothing to do with me at all. Like, period.

[Nox would get it, but it would completely crush him. He'd forever wonder where he went wrong.]

[drewthetower]

I doubt that. He seems decent. And hey, if it'll help, you can tell him all about me. I dunno if it would but...

[sassery]

He is. Dante's- [Nox pauses, thinks about how he wants to word this. He feels so much about Dante it's hard to summarize in just a few sentences.] He's gone through so much he should've never had to. Done things no one should. When I bitchslapped him back on the qliphoth, my qliphoth, it was because he'd just been trying to protect me from what he thought was the only way to end things.

He was a fucking idiot and so was his brother, my father. [A beat, and he considers it.] Right now it's gonna be a lot to take in as much as he has, so in the future, yeah, sure. I'm just gonna have to take it one step at a time.

[drewthetower]

Yeah, understandable. Lemme know if he still needs a place to shower or something. You can bring him by here if you don't want him at your place.
