Kamukura adjusted the belt around his waist before setting the hat atop his head.

Komaeda bit his lip, unable to stop himself from reaching out and fixing the man's coat himself. It didn't take but a moment for the Pirate King to take his hand and lower it away.

"Thank you, mother. I'm capable of dressing myself now."

"Ri-Right," He laughed it off, unable to hide the nervousness in his voice. "It's just, you can be killed now. Please, please be careful. I know it's you've been healing for a little while now but what if they attack? You're still the Pirate King, what would I do without you? I-"

Izuru simply gave a small, airy chuckle.

"Exactly, I'm still the Pirate King. I know how to handle myself in a fight, and knowing you, you'll be coming with and protecting me. We have no intention to fight, so it would be unwise to attack us."

He was right, of course he was right, but there was always a chance...

"Would you stop making out already?" Kokichi called from the other side of the door. "We've been waiting forever! I'm sure England is probably dead by now."

Of course, they docked a little while ago and nobody has unloaded yet, did anyone even realize the Pirate King was there?

Komaeda exhaled, giving a final look to his lover.

"I'll go get Makoto then, I'll see you in a few minutes darling."

It felt so natural to say, and something about it still made his heart flutter.

Leaving the Pirate King behind to finish up, Kokichi walked by his side, following him below deck for extra protection.

"That's the guy, huh? Not my taste really. Cool looking though, I wonder what I'd do with hair that long."

To that, Nagito gave a smile,

"Knowing you, I could imagine. What about you guys? I probably don't deserve forgiveness after abandoning you like that, you probably have every right to kill me, I just-"

"Nah," The shorter man crossed his arms, "We traveled the world catching up to you. You have no idea the sort of adventures we had. I bet even Byakuya liked it." He snickered quietly. "Speaking of him, that girl is really attached to his hip. I forgot her name."

"Toko," He finished for him. "I suppose she has a crush. Could be cute if she didn't smell like rats,"

"And he wasn't so stuck up,"

The two shared a small laugh, it was almost like old times.

Starting down the stairs, Komaeda looked to him again.

"What about you then? Does anyone here catch your heart?"

Kokichi quietly thought before shrugging,

"Aw, I don't have any interest in romance," An obvious lie, but not worth being called out, "I'm more interested in messing with that temporary leader."

Was he talking about Shuichi? He kept quiet for him to continue,

"He's always getting irate when I do the smallest stuff. Hilarious. I wonder how long before he pops a vein," Snickering, the man abruptly went quiet as they entered the low deck.

"This the place?"

Rather than answering, Komaeda moved forward, careful to avoid anyone's leg.

"We're in England," He looked around the room as the soldiers looked up quickly. "We're going to untie you and you can go free."
