Both Tighnari and Cyno meet in the most unexpected possible way.
In the common bathroom of a prison!
Cyno knew that he desires Tighnari the moment his eyes fell on him.
- Where... did he go?
- I can't believe that he left just like that.
- I will...

"Clorinde, I want you to act as the body guard for Collei until we are done dealing with the Valukhasuna", Cyno said with seriousness and sincerety.
"I would be more than happy to oblige", Clorinde replied immediately.
"I have faith in you Clorinde.", Cyno said and smiled. "My daughter is the sweetest soul in this universe. I am sure you'll get along with her"
Clorinde was dismissed and Cyno stretched his hands. Thoma came in and handed over piles of documents to Cyno.
"Is this all the information?", Cyno asked.
"Yes. Everything", Thoma replied.
Inside was a detailed mention of what The Valukhasuna had been doing for the past week. Cyno went through it carefully. "Just as I thought, they haven't done anything unusual publically"
"The Valukhasuna has had a sharp decline in profits recently. The fact that they haven't made a move against it is rather suspicious", Thoma added.
"I know. I'll talk with Tighnari about this."
"Then I will take my leave now", Thoma said and just as he was about to walk away Cyno called his name.
"Thoma!"
"Huh? What is it boss?"
"I actually... wanted a bit of a help", Cyno said. He somehow seemed embarrassed.
"What is it boss?"
Cyno hesitated a bit to say it out loud. "You see... I was wondering if you could... you know... like... help me in like... selecting a ring?"
Thoma knew where this was going. He couldn't help but laugh at Cyno's remarks.
"Boss, are you finally going to propose to Tighnari?", he asked with a light hearted smile.
Cyno rarely blushed. But as soon as Thoma asked that, even he could not hide the red on his face.
"I mean... haven't I waited long enough?", Cyno questioned back.
Thoma laughed. "That you certainly have. It has been over ten years if I am correct"
Cyno made a more gentle expression and spoke- "Now that I am about to become a father once again, I want to welcome the child in a proper family. So before the birth of the little one, I really want to marry Tighnari"
"The fact that you two still aren't married is a crime", Thoma said.
"Well... I have no experience so I thought I should ask for your opinion", Cyno mumbled. "Since you recently yourself got married and stuff..."
"Yes. Of course. I'll help you out Boss", Thoma replied. "However, there is someone who can help you even more than I can"
Cyno looked at Thoma as he winked and asked- "Wanna meet her?"
