             Wriothesley inspected each photo carefully. The crimes were all gruesome, not much thought put behind them. The victims each had a signature moon insignia on their palm, as if the killer was trying to form a connection. He sighed, rubbing his temples as he sat down. 

There's definitely some sort of connection... nobody but an absolute psychopath kill's people randomly. And even then, they don't leave behind clean emblems like this. Who could even be behind this?

 Frustrated, he softly growled, leaning his head back onto the couch. He was sick and tired of this, absolutely tired. All he wanted to do was come up to the surface and spend one day with his friend to try and woo- Ahem, spend time with him, but the universe decided to pull this shitty joke on him? How much worse could his life get...

Neuvillette walked back out, the sight of the man himself making his heart skip a beat. The Iudex's long silvery hair flowed in the sunlight, like a Glaze Lily's petals. He wistfully sighed, gazing upon what would never be his.

At least, that was what he thought until Neuvillette turned to him with a serious expression. Initially, he assumed it was something dire, until the Chief Justice did something he'd never ever expected. 

He leaned in and kissed him.

Wriothesley was woken up by a hand shaking his shoulder.

"-ur Grace, Wriothesley?"

Neuvillette's familiar soft voice rang through his ears. Ugh, that was all a dream?! Come on! Damn it, he could still taste the Iudex's sweet lips...

Gah! This isn't fair!

Guys, want to know something really preppy?

I tested positive for Covid. 🙃

Not much of a surprise considering I've been coughing my intestines out these past few days, but I'll try to not let this hinder my posting schedule. I'm getting pretty desperate considering most will forget and move on from this ship after Natlan releases, which I'm still sad about thinking. 🙈🙈

Take care, and wear a mask when reading these next few chapters!
