That wasn't the answer he was expecting at all. Oh, how he loved twists, as long as they didn't interfere with his plans. And since he had such loose plans at the moment, he simply enjoyed everything to it's fullest. "So, I'm homeless again? Please tell me you'll at least leave me with a box that says 'Free Puppy.'" His smile faded, making the illusion of him being a sad abandoned puppy more realistic than a drunk bastard going through his usual motions.
Then again, It wasn't like he needed to go through those motions. He had no reason to build up a reputation, get invited, or prepare for anything. No. He had nothing to really do anymore. Without Sunako he was simply drifting out at sea. Hell, even America gave him some purpose to fulfill. It felt less like a freedom and more like chains. He couldn't manipulate for nothing. As Marco said before, any thing entertaining would go cold really fast. Without substance to harm and killing, it was just killing. He began to wonder again what Sunako was up to. If she had escaped and what her new life was like.
But Marco's proposal thankfully tore Tatsumi from those thoughts. His eyes even lit back up at the idea that he might still have some role to play. One he might find entertaining. "Why does it have to be temporary? I wonder what kind of big plans you've got that you're not telling me about."
Watching the bird's cheeks light up only caused the werepire's eyes to lid half way. He couldn't be sure if it was the alcohol or his teasing, but he liked it all the same. "Of course." Tatsumi reached back up, near Marco's ear, and traced down his jaw. "Like how I still need to find all your secret hiding spots~?" The werepire leaned further in, as if he was about to kiss the blushing phoenix, but instead only stays that close. "If I can't cheat, nether can you~"
ARE YOU?! O_O (AND NO MY EDITS R TERRIBLE!! I keep writing these tags half asleep)
