Adrian chuffs, a huff through his nose and mouth, and kisses Rosso back for as long as he can manage before he's pulled away. It's considerably different, without his usual monster parts in the way.]
And if you tell anybody about it, I'll kill you.
[Or deny everything until his dying breath.
But most people know. If they've met Adrian and have had more than a single conversation with him...they know. He's a brute on the outside, aggressive and crass as a defense mechanism, but by night he volunteers at the orphanage and has date nights with his boyfriend. His coolness factor....is subjective.
He sighs as they sit there, his hand still resting on Misha's head. The sun will never set beyond the trees, no matter how much time they spend here.]
Prolly should...be careful how long we stay. But...it's kinda nice, havin' you home.
[It'd be even nicer in Rosso's world though, he thinks. Just find the kid and hop to another world, he'd fucking do it.]
[And what, get the kid adopted by the El Search Party? They take misfits under their wing like hobbyists collect Warhammer minis.
...
It might be nice, though, because at least Misha would be cared for. It's not Rosso's place to say.]
You can cut the simulation whenever you want, aegiya. I'll leave it up to you.
[Normally Rosso would say "we can sit here all day and make out" (he would not say this) (he'd just do it) but that's kind of hard with a kid on Adrian's lap. Don't swap spit in front of the child, y'all.]
If I do meet Misha for real, by the way, I'm gonna tell him that you're a big soft-hearted idiot. Better be prepared to kill me in one shot.
[He's just glad that he was able to Do this. When he saw Misha in the maze...he nearly lost his mind. He wasn't sure how he was going to react, seeing him in the simulation. In reality, they're probably sitting in the center of a massive empty room...but for the time being, it feels like they're somewhere else entirely.
Adrian doesn't want to say that he doesn't think it's possible for Rosso to ever meet him. It's easier to think about hypotheticals. What if, right?]
Don't worry, I'd kill you instantly. I'd make it count.
[His antennae curl, similar to the way his tail might if he had it visibly right now.]
Misha would remember you as "that guy I met for five minutes before Adrian killed him".
Well. I guess it wouldn't be as fun if you made it easy.
[He snorts, bumping his head gently against Rosso's. He gives Misha's hair one last ruffle, trying his best not to linger on the image of him for too long as the simulation finally dissolved around them. It leaves them sitting in the center of the large room, back to being a Werewolf and a Manticore. It does at least mean Adrian is a lot softer to lean against as he reaches for Rosso's hand to hold.]
Wanna go back to my place? We can watch some more old movies. I think I got a couple you haven't seen yet.
"A couple", he says, as if I ever get to watch movies.
[Please someone bring movies to Elrios.]
...yeah, let's do that. We can reminisce about our collective idiots some other time.
[Like. Probably on the way home. Or on Adrian's futon. Or just in general— but at least now they both know what the other one's saying when he says "so and so did this". Misha being a gremlin is on display. Ventus being a fuckboy......... is also on display. Phenomenal.]
[Maybe they can come back someday to reminisce about their idiots more. Adrian would suffer through all of Rosso's buddies if it meant he could see them again. That Adrian could see that annoyed look on his face, which he knows- 100%- is utter fondness for all of them.
Adrian gets up to his feet just a bit reluctantly, letting Rosso lead the way back outside. It's going to be jarring, leaving both Elrios and Perovskia behind, re-entering Ryslig the same way they left it.
But he thinks he'd much rather be here, if it means the two of them can be together.

[Whoops, Rosso's stealing another kiss, this one more chaste and quick than the others have been.]
I was hoping he'd remember me more as "the guy that unveiled Adrian's soft side", or maybe "the guy that kicked Adrian's ass", honestly.
no subject
[It's a good thing simulation-Misha is asleep, he would be begging for them to stop if he had to witness the cootie infestation currently going on.]
Oh so you're gonna kick my ass now? I see how it is.
no subject
[kiss kiss kiss— fucking gross, honestly, you two need to get a Different room. One not in a simulation room with a simulation-Misha.]
You think I'm gonna stand there while you try and oneshot me? Absolutely not. I'm gonna make it a pain in your ass.
