The day after the tournament everything is quiet. The next tournament won't be for another month so everyone is taking a break from brawling and mostly hanging out in their room or out eating. You and your dark angel lover are watching a movie with pit when his buddy Ike decided to pay you a visit.
Ike knocks on the door.
Pit recognizes ike's knock and smiles. "Come in ike!"
Ike enters the room and grins when he sees pit. "Hey pit... I was just wondering what you were up to."
"Just hanging out with my roomies." Pit smiles. "What's up?"
"well I was wondering if you wanted to... come with me to get some food or something... normally I'd ask Marth or link but... link is tied up with Lucina... and Marth is busy..." ike scratches the back of his head nervously.
"Heck yeah!" pit jumps up grabs a pull over and follows Ike out the door.
Pittoo chuckles. "You know... I just feel like pit might be bi... it just dawned on me that there might be a reason he writes in a journal..." pittoo reaches over and digs under pit's pillow and holds up a small book and grins. "Yup... he tries to hide it from me but I know he does it... let's see."
"You shouldn't read that... it's a complete invasion of pit's privacy..." you start.
Dark pit holds up his finger and grins. "You forget he and I are one in the same." Dark pit opens the book and skims to the parts where pit has written about his friends. "look at this... today link and lucina became an item... too bad I was hoping to steal that brawny adventures heart... but no matter they make such a cute couple." Dark pit laughs. "oh gosh... I might implode... he had a crush on link..."
"It isn't nice to laugh at him..." you start again but he keeps reading out loud.
"Today ike called me pity cake... I acted annoyed but it was just so adorable. And his reaction after he realized what he said was even cuter." Dark pit grabs his side because he's laughing so hard it hurts. "I knew it..."
You snatch the book from him and frown. "Knock it off pittoo... you laugh at pit you're really just laughing at yourself..." you scold him.
Pittoo looks down. "Your right... dang you're too smart for me... fine I'll put it back..." he slides the book back under the pillow.
"How did you know that was there anyway?" you question. You hadn't seen pit write in a journal ever in the week you'd been with the boys, but the entrée about Ike was from yesterday after the tournament.
Pittoo changes the subject. "So the magic flower the queen ingested... made the babies hair golden and magical?" talking about the movie.
"Yes..." you nod. "But that doesn't answer my question..." he said pit was like him does that mean pittoo keeps a journal under his pillow too?
"Question?" dark pit shrugs. "Did you ask a question?"
"Yeah I did. How did you know pit had a journal?" you repeat.
"I've seen him write in it before." Pittoo nods. "Don't worry about it."
You look at him skeptically and then turn back to the movie. You decide to test dark pit to see if he's been paying as close attention to the movie as he's pretending. "What was her name again? The girl..."
Dark pit shake his head. "Who princess long hair?"
You smirk. "Yeah what's her name?"
"Um... blonde?" pittoo frowns unable to answer the question.
You knew he wasn't paying attention to the movie. What was he thinking about? Clearly it didn't have anything to do with the movie or he would have known that girls name was Rapunzel. They've only said it like 15 times so far. "You ok pittoo?"
"Don't call me that pit..." dark pit mumbles still only half paying attention.
"I'm not pit..." you remark.
He turns to you and then looks down his face completely red. "Right... I forgot... I guess I just have my mind on other things right now..."
"Why? what wrong?" you pause the movie.
"I'm not sure if it's even a big deal... I just..." he sighs. "Remember how my birthday was last week?"
You nod. "Yeah it was pit's birthday too... that was the day we met."
He nods. "Ok so you know how I'm the like sort of prince of the underworld... right?"
You nod again. "Yeah you told me... why is something wrong?"
Dark pit frowns. "Well... I'm old enough to be the king now if I wanted too... but I don't know if I even want to have anything to do with all that business..."
You finally understand. Pit was from angel land and pittoo was from the underworld that's why he could travel there. Being created by the ruler of the underworld technically made him her son and by all rights made him the prince. It was a strange concept to wrap your head around but the truth of the matter was it was true. You hadn't really had a reason to think it might bother him because he never talked about it. "What were you thinking then?"
He sighs. "I don't... I don't want to go back to that place... I don't want you to go back to that place... but then the idea of running the place myself... I may never get the opportunity again... what do you think I should do?" he looks at you.
You think about it. On one hand he was right, going back to the underworld could in some cases cause your death because you are an angel of light and that would provoke monsters to attack you. On the other hand pittoo had full rights to do with the place whatever he pleased and if he gave that up he'd never be more than just a dark angel who didn't belong in the light. "Well... it isn't up to me... surely we can't be going there... wouldn't the creatures just... torment us?"
Pittoo frowns and crosses his arms. "They might beat me up but they are too scared of medusa to try to kill me... but you... I know they'd relish the chance to hurt you... I can't ask you to go down there..." he brings his knees up to his chin and stares at the floor. "I just wish I knew... what I am supposed to do..."
"In the end nobody can tell you how to live your life..."
"Right... but... it's like..." he looks up. "I don't belong in angel land because I'm not light... and I'm not really an earthling... so I don't really belong here either... and sure I was born in the underworld and consider it home... but I hate it there... I don't belong anywhere..."
You smile a bit. "You belong with me..."
He turns to you surprised for a moment then he smiles a bit. "You're right... happiness is more important than something as trivial as belonging somewhere..." he pulls you into a hug. "As long as we have each other... then it doesn't matter where we are..." he catches your still bandaged wings in the corner of his eye. "No underworld... I don't want anything more to do with that place..." he takes off his realm ring. "I guess I won't need this anymore." He opens the desk side drawer and stuffs it in with all their collected junk.
You smile a bit.
He smiles back and puts one hand on your cheek. "I'm only keeping it in case I need to go back... but I don't plan to ever go back there."
