[futhark]

[ You know, he never really realized how much of a problem the god-shinki relationship can be when he A)encouraged Archer to be more open, because being linked to a dead-inside person is weird B) enabled the being more honest and the dokis that follow.

Archer, when you doki so much, it's hard to figure out if he's the one having them or if it's just you. ]

Just today, mind you.

[ It's just you, it must be. ]

[boneofsword]

[Sure, blame your dokis on Archer, who meanwhile is way too content with having that slow, nice dance. It's even too warm and fuzzy, and he's starting to wonder if he had a glass too much of sparkling wine.]

I never expected otherwise. [because that's what he gets for being honest, right? It's also the best moment to lightly brush Caster's cheek.] Mhm, you smell nice.

[futhark]

[ Impossible, Archer the designated driver is drinking! Yet another reason to rang the bells, or something, Caster wouldn't believe unless he'd seen it with his own eyes- his shinki is alcohol repellent or something.

And yes, he will absolutely blame the dokis on Archer. ]

The only thing you didn't choose- [ The suit, the shoes, yeah, that's not his own choice ]

Isn't it too early for comments like this? [ He chuckles taking the compliment, but- oh well, so he's now on the other side of being flirted with? ]

[boneofsword]

[Archer does drink, indeed, moderately. He's not good with alcohol. If Caster saw him earlier he most likely had a chance to watch Archer sip the sparkling wine.

Caster's comment makes him chuckle.]

I'll save some better ones for that time. Besides wouldn't it be mixed scent?

[futhark]

[ Okay, he got himself to blame only, he took it into a bit raunchy direction, can he fault the guy to going with it? The kick in the shin cannot be mistaken for a misstep, nope, that really was there ]

Oh, I'm absolutely sure you have just referred to my skills in herbalism and alchemy- [ Which aren't very impressive on the first one, and non-existent on the second one ]

[boneofsword]

[Archer definitely can feel the kick and retaliates with spinning Caster around.]

Of course, my wise druid~

[What, no one told him to cut the snark. There's some fondness though, and he's keeping his tone light. He's way too content for being a smug, arrogant asshole that he usualy is.]

[futhark]

[ He's as "wise" just as much as he is a "druid". Thanks for the flashback. ]

Keep telling that and maybe it will happen someday. When I'm old and all that- [ He follows the steps and goes into that dumb spin without complaining. ]

Nah, like that would happen.

[ YOLO and live fast, die young! ]

[boneofsword]

[Archer chuckles and spins him again.]

Does two millenia count as not old? [he teases, knowing time doesn't really apply in this case. But he can't really pass the chance.]

[futhark]

[ He's old as dirt if you look at it from this perspective. But he didn't live through those two thousand years. ]

Give or take few centuries- it's not that much.

[ He returns close after the spin and for a longer while they can just keep close and move with the music. Yeah, this kind of dancing could grow on him. Dancing with Archer even, who knows. You know, like a fungus ]

And the song is closing to its end...

[ And with that, their second dance is over. ]

[boneofsword]

[They both make up for that time living intensely the moment they're summoned.]

Mhm, such a shame. [Archer wouldn't mind it taking a bit longer, but it's better to change the pace to not let Caster grow bored with current dancing partner.] You're a good dancer and easy on the eyes.

[He can at least tease some more.]

[futhark]

Ha ha...! [ So much flattery going around here, what if he gets used to this? ]

Go and take some other dances, so you can appreciate how good the dancing with me was. [ It's a tease, not a boast, but he does enjoy making Archer's life harder than it's supposed to be. Besides, again, he's got no idea yet how to answer to all that flattery coming from his shinki. He sees where the games lead, and he's not overly opposed to it. ]
