WAIT YOU ARE FOOTBALL NERD
Dude, I am so gonna bother you with questions β¨
The research is KILLING ME SLOWLY
Last match of the season. The game rarely ever comes down to this. Max knows Charles is going to be in his head, always is, before a match. They play West Ham today. Fate isn't entirely in their hands, if Man City wins against Liverpool, they will be second. If they tie or lose, they win. He knows Charles hates that. He knows in his heart, Charles will win. Richmond will win.
"Will you be there?"
Max blinks the sleep out of his eyes, Max is always there. He has loved this sport before Charles. He has loved Richmond longer.
"Of course."
Why are you asking? hangs in the air. Charles tip toes around it, refolding the same shirt thrice. Today, Max will be patient. He tries to be, always. Charles rarely ever leaves him wanting. He gives and he gives without asking. For him, Max will wait. Always.
"If we don't-" his mouth clicks shut, Max wants to pull Charles back into the bed.
"If we don't win, will you still kiss me?"
Max frowns at him, "I will, of course, always kiss you."
"No." He shakes his head,
Then again before sitting at the foot of the bed.
"In the audience, at the railings." He stops the abuse on the shirt in his hand, resting it on Max's duvet covered feet, "If I come to you, will you kiss me? Even if we don't win."

I mean I just saw a post talking about the Getos accepting Satoru and that makes him think about giving up sorcery. And I'm here like, no?? That would never happen.
I'm very fond of the hc that Suguru had a very normal childhood, or as normal as one can have given his circumstances, and comes from a home β a place that has love for him. And Suguru used to take satoru with him to visit his parents and they were both very loved in that household. I love all of that. It's like a drug to me. But to take that and say that satoru would see them as an escape from the life of a sorcerer is just plain wrong.
But seeing the love and acceptance that satoru felt from suguru's parents and the love and acceptance that he knew was there for Suguru too, that would fuck him up when he comes to know about Suguru killing his parents.
This is not new, I love thinking about Suguru deciding to kill his parents, and then sticking to that decision and carrying it out and living with those consequences. Living with that on his conscience. But I also do love the way satoru reacts to all of this. He is surprised and horrified. And that does kinda point towards him knowing them because otherwise I kinda don't see the guy who was separated from his parents at a young age care about the implications of suguru's actions. Especially when he's just 17. And I love to chew on it. A satoru who takes on suguru's part of grief that comes friom his actions too, because suguru refuses to feel it.
I love all of that, but to argue that satoru feels like he lost a way of life because of that is a disservice to who satoru is.
