[Touched beyond being able to express it, Dorian can only translate it into something lighter.] 'Top two'? Is there someone I should be jealous of?

[cagedinflesh]

[Berserker laughs, giving Dorian a little squeeze as he does.]

No, no, only Tatsumi - placing you as the number one, at the very least here!

[depicted]

[Now he smiles truly, even hints at the start of a laugh.] Ah, well. I think I can accept that. If only just. He does seem a wonderful fellow.

[cagedinflesh]

[He pulls back, placing his hands on either side of Dorian's cheeks, and kisses his forehead.]

Of course, there is some level of obligation to it as well, which is a difficult thing to beat! You've a disadvantage which is out of your hands. Still, I am not one to play favourites, you are equally loved in my mind!

[But he places Dorian above his new Master, so that's something, right.]

[Dorian bows his head and turns down his wish for other kisses until he can dismiss it. Still, he has to insist.]

When you kiss me like that, Henry, you make me feel as if you think me a child.

[cagedinflesh]

-No, not at all. If I'd ever had a child, perhaps I would have wished them to be you, it would certainly be good fortune for me. As it is, to think of you in such a way would be to do you a disservice. A friend must be entirely equal.

[He doesn't know why it pleases him so much to hear it, but it does.] Yes, he must be. I am glad you agree.

[cagedinflesh]

Of course. You are a very dear friend, Dorian, don't doubt it for a moment, or think that I would take it for granted in any way. If it does appear so, you must let me know.

-Perhaps, then, it is only right, I should confess to you, I have taken a Master here, recently. All the more reason you need not fear for my well-being.

NICE WORK THERE ON THE KEYWORDS

[Dorian pauses, and he can't resist teasing Jekyll a little.] I am very happy for you, Henry! I hope that it will protect you in the upcoming conflicts.

But surely that would rank me third in your heart, would it not?

I'm not proud, I feel great shame

[cagedinflesh]

No, I must put you first, even so! I remain true to my word!

[Lucifer doesn't need him. And he doesn't need Lucifer!!!]

Just as a knight would. [He remembers that, Jekyll. With a smile, he kisses Bersker on the cheek.] I must go now. But please, stay in contact. I will develop something more advanced than the stone, but it needs must do for discretion for now.

[cagedinflesh]

[Jekyll flushes with the mention of knights. He had nearly forgotten he'd admitted that to Dorian, and to be reminded is almost more embarrassing than the admission.] The stone is quite alright, thank you, Dorian, I shall certainly contact you - perhaps more than you wish!

[depicted]

That would be entirely impossible, Henry. I assure you.
