They sit there watching the lanterns for some time even having ordered more drinks and food as Kazuha actually gets the other to talk!
"I always wondered what Inazuma was like back in the day-..."

"Well it isn't that special but the last time I went to Inazuma, I guess nothing has changed since the time I have left, a lot of new things were added to it like houses and more."

Kazuha actually disagrees with the other "actually ...a lot has changed. The Raiden shogun on occasion leaves her abode or the plain of euthymia and just...takes a casual stroll down the city. Although I challenged her by block her attack and succeeding in it which made my a fugitive back then. Everybody that stood against her at that time is allowed to wander freely. If you challenge her a second time though-..."

Scaramouche only listened to half of it. He didn't like hearing about the Raiden shogun as he looks down at the cup in his hands "goodnight" he abruptly said, standing up and leaves.

Kazuha knows he should not have brought up the shogun so he reaches out to take Scara his hand but he misses just by a centimeter as he would watch the other walk away. Instead of chasing him and becoming a nuisance, perhaps angering him further, Kazuha let's the other be for now so he can process everything that happened today.

As Scaramouche begins to walk back to the home he rented for Lantern Rite he sees the owner toss out his stuff outside. He rushes over, grabs the man his throat and forcefully pins him to the wall with one hand "What are you doing?! Being nosy or do you wish for your death to come early old man?!"

The man puts his hand up and gasps for air looking down at the smaller male "You" "Rented" "Only "For" "A" "Night" he said with many pauses.

Scara didn't have much mora left anymore so he grunts and tosses the man away collecting his stuff and now he has to find a place to stay. Everywhere he goes is full and it only annoys him more that he has to return to that forsaken ship. He goes to find Kazuha finding him in his room. He tosses his stuff somewhere in the corner of the room, climbs in bed and pushes Kazuha so that he his fully pressed against the wall and he got more space on the small bed.
The blond would wake up and he opens one eye at first yawning before opening the other one. He couldn't move really since he is still being pressed against the wall but what he can do is move in a way so he could climb over Scaramouche but right when his hands are besides the other his head Scara would grab his throat so he couldn't move.
"What are you doing?! Why do you get on top of me?!"

Kazuha looks at the other calmly and gives him a faith smile.
"I am giving you the bed to sleep in...I was only trying to get off the bed to give you space"
He calmly said looking down at the other.

They are quite close to eachother and Scara felt some feeling in his lower stomach that he cannot quite describe but it makes him anxious, nervous yet happy all at once...why was he feeling this when the other was so close to him?
The other let's go of the other his throat and watches him get off him and off the bed.
So he spoke the truth?
He just wanted to get off the bed?
Scara would turn in bed having all the space now but he cannot help but get curious where Kazuha would sleep now so he did dare to glance over once swiftly.
He returns to look at the wall before he sits up swiftly and glances at Kazuha once more wanting to make sure if he saw it right.
"You are going to sleep at the windowsill?..."
He asks with a raised brow.

Kazuha has his hands behind his head and peaks a eye open to look at the other who looks at him shocked. "Yes? I fall asleep here surprisingly often. It is not as bad as it looks. It is like a little bench the windowsill so ill be fine"

Baffled the other cannot imagine that being comfortable at all. He watches the other close his eyes again and he cannot help but glare at the other.
Thinking of what to do he remembers they slept in the bed before together and although they have to get all snug and lay against eachother; it is possible.
"Suit yourself..."
Scaramouche said in the end and lays back down closing his eyes to try and sleep.
"Why do I feel guilty?! Why around him I feel so many emotions I usually don't feel anymore?!"
He said to himself in his head.
As if Kazuha knew what would happen he has a smile growing on his face hearing Scara speak up once more.
"Fine...let's share a bed...but don't get handsy otherwise I'll break all your fingers and then crush your hand before ripping them off and forcing them down your throat."
