--Gangs--

[Lyney, as a rule, does not like going to people outside of the Family for help. He just doesn't know that he can trust them, and trust is tantamount for him.

But Shio was Family, once, before he managed to leave and maybe that's what Lyney needs right now. At least, he knows Shio won't report him to the Family for coming back injured.

He knocks on the employee entrance of Gen's, pressing his jacket to the wound on his arm.]

Yeah?

[He reaches up to cup one of Lyney's cheeks.]

You like me?

[Obviously.]

[He chuckles.] I thought that was kind of obvious by this point.

Oh, shush.

[Another small, quick kiss.]

I didn't think it was mutual! Not after so long.

Oh, it's mutual. It just felt... unfeasible, for a while.

[With Shio having left the Family and Lyney having still been there at the time.]

If I'd left when I wanted to, it wouldn't have been. That's...mm.

["That's why I wanted to leave with you."]

... Is that why you wanted to leave when I did?

[He takes Lyney's hand with his free one, intertwining their fingers.]

...it is. [He squeezes Shio's hand.] It just wasn't going to be the same with you gone, and I realized that.

Lyney...

[Another kiss.]

Look...

[He's a mess, but Shio knew that.]

[He did know that.

He pulls Lyney into a hug.]

[A hug he happily returns.]

But that doesn't matter right now, does it? You have me, and I have you~

That's right. That's the important part.

Mhm~ ...wait, you told Lynette, right?

That we were going to stay here overnight, yes. She responded with a thumbs-up.

[He groans, thunking his head on Shio's shoulder.]

She's never gonna let me hear the end of this...

[Shio just chuckles and pats his back.]

She was telling me I should sneak over to your house and jump you after work, Shio!

[Excuse him, choking on his own spit now-]

She what?!

Exactly! Exactly! She was tired of me pining, or something.

Even if she was... honestly.

[He shakes his head.]

I love my sister. I want to throw her in the lake, but I do love her.

[He laughs a little, pulling Lyney closer.]
