The commander hadn’t ever been on a date, really. He had never had the time, and never, really, the inclination to do so. Until now.

So to save the water going cold, your kind offer would be gratefully accepted.”

Fingers move to the fastenings of the prosthetic, working to start to unfasten it.

“Thank you for your assistance getting me here, by the way. Unexpected solution but one I have to admit was pleasant.” —

Once he’s standing on his own feet again, he nodded at the question. Although still seeming somewhat bashful, he’s less nervous when it’s something entirely practical.

“Please. I need the prosthetic off first and then whilst I can undress mostly from this uniform solo… it takes a while. —

definitely added a little. In which hand he still held the bottle of sake.

“I would allow you, though I suppose we are past what would happen if I didn’t.” There’s a sliver of mirth in there, and he’s taking the time to look at the sights as they make their way to the hot spring. —

There was definitely no complaint from the slender man when Tseng didn’t let go, but my did the pale skin turn a rosy hue across his cheeks as he was practically swept off of his feet and into the Turk’s arms.

His sinewy frame didn’t weigh much, although the prosthetic —

“As I hope the same as well. In both sentiments.” He gave a small smile and took her hand with his flesh one, shaking it.

“It was good to meet you, Mephilia. Best of luck!”

“It gives you a chance to reflect. And I think that’s important these days.” Ravus murmured thoughtfully before nodding as he looked to her.

“Yes, Altissia. It’s relatively close, so the journey shouldn’t be too bad.”

The quiet of the night actually made him feel more peaceful still, and a contented sigh escaped him.

so that Tseng could free himself if he wished.

“Lead the way. If you don’t mind, some help negotiating the terrain would be welcomed. I love the nature here, I don’t trust my feet not to cause me to propel myself forward, however.”

He’s giving the other a genuine smile. —

didn’t have to wear a mask, he could just be himself. And he felt accepted.

The prosthetic reached out to carefully take the bottle of sake, feeling it would be easier for the man if he carried it.

He didn’t particularly make a move to part their hands, but he loosened his grip a little —
June 23, 2026 at 3:44 PM
rather than admit there was something far more emotional behind how he felt. His eyes held Tseng’s for a while.

Whilst the man from Wutai may have felt awkward in the silence, Ravus actually found peace in it. He didn’t feel self conscious at the moment, instead he simply felt content.

He —

Although the Tenebraen had the appearance, and often the manner, of being carved from ice… his truest self was reflected in the warmth of the hand that took Tseng’s, the gentle warmth in those purple eyes.

His own defences were sorely lacking, which he’d blame on his current physical state, —
June 23, 2026 at 3:44 PM
“Fairly well; thank you.” Ravus managed a smile before gesturing to one of the flyers.

“The sights there are beautiful, so if that’s what you’re looking for, I can recommend it. If you want thrills, I’m afraid I’m less good at recommendations. I like just looking at beautiful locations…”

choice, but also not about to pry into her affairs.

“I’m heading out soon, is there anything you need?”
June 15, 2026 at 8:13 PM
Ravus had been awake for an hour or so, but he emerged later, having struggled slightly with his Magitek prosthetic.

Coming out with slightly damp hair from a shower, he glanced to Mephilia and tilted his head.

“Did you sleep well?” He glanced to the flyers, a little perplexed by the —

be able to feel someone holding my hand. The connection.” So he took Tseng’s hand with his flesh hand and stood gracefully, using the prosthetic for a bit more upward momentum.

“Can I carry anything? This arm can carry… a lot of weight.” He was feeling flustered, but in the best way.
June 13, 2026 at 8:58 PM
perfect, so thank you. As for your question… no one ever really asked that before. So thank you again.” Violet eyes softened and he actually smiled openly.

“I prefer my flesh hand being taken. Whilst I have full control over the prosthetic, I don’t have full sensation, and I like to —
June 13, 2026 at 8:58 PM
in a pleasant way. No one had ever really asked that before. They’d just gone for the flesh hand because the prosthetic often weirded people out.

“You’re too kind, Tseng. Though I won’t complain about a steady arm to keep me upright, after all. I’m still sore and that means my balance isn’t —
June 13, 2026 at 8:58 PM
The way they conversed was just so easy, so natural. Now that anything that had previously gotten in the way — mainly duty — was gone, they were actually able to get to know one another and understand each other better.

The question actually caught the platinum haired man by surprise, but —
June 13, 2026 at 8:58 PM
“Rest well.” He waved a hand and then went to his own room. Removing the prosthetic with care before preparing himself to settle down to sleep.
June 12, 2026 at 6:56 PM
“You owe me nothing, please don’t worry about it.” In his mind, it was simply the right thing to do.

Whilst he may be somewhat off the correct path, his principles aligned very much with that of a paladin. He just took the darkness on along with the light.
June 12, 2026 at 6:56 PM
“It’s hardly surprising. You had to run from an Iron Giant… and you’re dealing with with a new place. That in itself is tiring.”
June 8, 2026 at 9:10 PM
Ravus took note of the sudden change in Mephilia, nodding and heading to the reception, paying for two rooms.

Holding out one key to her, he looked down at his own, held in the Magitek arm. It seemed he favoured the one that remained flesh when dealing with other people.

June 8, 2026 at 9:10 PM
“Exactly where I was planning. Unassuming, quiet. My ideal place. I like not being recognised on occasion… it means I can experience what being a normal person is.”

Ravus adjusted his prosthetic and wandered towards the inn, making sure they hadn’t been followed by any monsters.

“After you.”

“I know. I need to still be myself, and I am. I always was more the blade when she was the flower anyway.”

He truly would do anything for Lunafreya, it was the entire reason he’d gone into the Niflheim army. He kept her safe by going into danger.
