Recap: The readers are discovering how the pairs began to become...well, pairs. 

At the Greed pair, there's nothing that is defined as 'normal', heck, they might even be fu-

"-n" Licht licked his lips over some music sheets, "It has been some time since I got this excited over a piece of music, genuinely so." he chuckled. 

"Licht-tan's happy again~" Hyde chimed in, "is it Musical related? Bonus if it's something that happened early during somewhere in the 1860s with the Black Crook?" 

"No, it's a bit of a free-verse..." Licht clicked his tongue, "honestly, when can you shut up about Shakespeare and Musicals? I tolerate musicals, though you keep yapping."

"Probably never," the Greed laughed softly, rolling on the couch, "I just adore them! They were the inspiration of the countless love I got - including Ophelia! Her love was the actual foundation of my feelings of 'True Love'! Hey- I wonder where that came from?" he joked. 

"You mean that your adoration to those historically magnificent plays and poems were just doormats to your cheating life before Ophelia? Gross..." the pianist glared, "Never thought Hamlet characters were legit..."

"Course they were - symbolisms are quite real these days..." Hyde swallowed some sweets. 

"...what was she?"

"Pardon?"

"Her statues...what was her's?" 

"Ah, getting a little private huh, Licht-tan~?"

"Just spit it out," He rolled his eyes, annoyed, "I have no time."

"Rude," Hyde sat up on the couch, "A beta. She may be assumed as an Alpha for her royal status, but it is much more normal than that," Hyde popped another candy into his mouth, "As you know, I'm a (cute) Omega, she was a Beta, we may not compete as the desired pair, but we loved each other nonetheless...even after time was against it. We were star-crossed lovers, I said so." He relaxed his head. 

A sigh.

"Then...why are you asking that?" Hyde glanced over him. 

"What?" Licht raised an eyebrow from his covered face on the music sheets. 

"Don't you think it's too random?"

"Ah..." Licht eyed somewhere else, glancing at the areas in the room excluding Hyde's face.

"Don't tell me..." Greed smirked, "You're...jealous?!" He was going to laugh, laugh the fucking hard-

"You know what, yes I am." Licht stood up-straight, now facing Hyde so fast like a well-oiled robot, or a shameless man. 

"Oh shit," Hyde gave a confused smile, "Really?" his eyes widen

"I don't-" Licht realized what just came out of his mouth, "It's just that- shit, I-! look," he clapped his hands, folding those music sheets to the nearest table, "I admit I was jealous. I admit that, after just mere sentences of your loved ones in the past, I was subtlely freaked out; because...we're actually compatible pairs...and I'm the Alpha one, and I was supposed to be-"

"But people who were born biologically and identified as women back then didn't have advanced organs to have a sperm-filled pen-"

"JUST LISTEN!!"

"Aight," Hyde replied. 

"I wasn't THAT crazy to think back then women can breed men, I know the science wasn't there yet. But um..." Licht took off his hoodie, guess it was heating up in the room, "dating...in general was..."
