          ❝ Right. So I guess you have an idea of how much I like that game… ❞ Seiya raised up his right arm, pointing out towards the void as if to show Shiryu the exact amount of how much he enjoyed playing ‘Duck Hunt’. ❝ Now, multiply that by one thousand and you’ll have a fraction of how much I love being with you. ❞ The Dragon’s assumptions were right, though. Words and actions are a very powerful thing, especially when they’re born from such a pure love like Seiya’s. Because of that, there were times he translated his feelings into simple words like nobody else. 

           ❝ ‘Sides I only play it when you’re too busy for me! The one time I did sleep in the living room was the day you got me the game. But that was ‘cause it was new and I was excited about it. ❞ And Seiya wondered if Shiryu did not regret buying him that crap! He’d guess his boyfriend did not expect him to become so addicted to a game with silly graphics and a pointless goal! But it was Seiya who he was dealing with. The boy who’s always unpredictable. 

             ❝ Angel, you’re not even eating enough! I know you like what you do, and that you get carried away rather easily when you are focused on something… But hey! I’m gonna make sure you stay healthy. I’ll show up and talk to you every two hours. I’ll distract you, even by stating useless information about ducks. I did that a lot when we were kids and I still have a bunch of other topics you might get interested in! Guess what? I’m not stopping. ❞

Shiryu did not think it polite to push their romance onto other people & expect those around them to accept it. The} LESS ^{attention drawn to the fact, that more AT PEACE he felt. It did not} DIMINISH ^{what he felt for Seiya; he well made up for it when they were behind the walls of their home & (every now & again)} SWIFT KISSES ^{were planted while upon} PAVEMENT ^{& underneath uncaring} TREES.

                                                                          ^{There were days that he was glad Seiya had something to} DISTRACT ^{himself while he got some of his studies done & there were times Shiryu} CURSED  ^{for purchasing the game. It was vintage & he knew Seiya always appreciated those types of things. With Seiya’s own BIRTHDAY being around the corner, the dragon saint had his own little surprise waiting for him (no point in interrogating him; he wasn’t talking). But, for now, this would} HAVE ^{to do.}

                                                                          ^{❛ I’m glad you like it as much as you do. ❜ Although the dragon had} CONFIDENCE ^{in the things he opted to give to Seiya, he didn’t want the pegasus saint saying that he liked something when he truly didn’t. That’d wound him MORE. The expression on Shiryu’s face went from SOFT to} QUIZZICAL ^{to Seiya’s next bit of commentary. The times of their childhood. Everyday Seiya found him & every day he’d try & get the younger him to be his friend &} EVERY DAY ^{Shiryu would find a way to tell Seiya to get lost. He’d never play games with him. He pretended to} HATE ^{talking to him. He even at one point caused the boy} DUMB ^{in order to make him go away (he really hoped he wouldn’t). Times do change.}

                                                                     ^{❛ You do that & I am finding a hiding spot; I don’t think it’d do me ANY GOOD since you always had a knack for} FINDING ME. ^{❜ A finger then came up to pause Seiya from speaking further. ❛ & before you ask, no, I am} NOT ^{playing that phone game with you. It was BORING then & its BORING now! ❜}
