[Oh, he's good now too? Ryou laughs, and it's such a genuine sound that even though they're playing off each other like this...the emotion is pure. He can be as sassy as he wants, but in the end, he loves Atem and there's always going to be an undercurrent of earnest care.

He likes it much more than worry.]

That's not quite how I expect you to purify me, but werewolves are cursed beings. Maybe that's what you're here for. To lift the curse of the damned.

[Ryslig weres dont work that way, but logic doesn't matter, shut up brain, he's busy. Very very busy with wagging his tail--which is moving faster and he can't stop because he is having fun--and idly running his thumb across the back of one of Atem's hands.

Truthfully...these are the kinds of things he wishes they could do all the time. Playing out loud is still a game. He'd game with you anytime, Atem.]
