idolpro | Flowers of Heaven 2: BAD END=DEAD END + Taisho Roman Revolution + BARiTONES

There’s a quiet fluttering overhead; a papery rustle from around you; a nudge at your ankles.

Gathering around you all are strange creatures. Materializing around BARiTONES are shifting geometric patterns of red and black, which become owls with deep red eyes and a black-and-white zigzag pattern on their feathers. Another flock—of living origami animals of all kinds, each made from a unique square of colorful paper—gather around Taisho Roman Revolution. Then, clustering around BAD END=DEAD END are… bombs??? covered in spikes, with spiky little legs, vibrating and glowing as if on the verge of explosion.
None of the creatures speak, exactly, but they chitter and nudge at you like they're greeting old friends, and usher you towards a gap that's opened in the thick curtain of kudzu vines and onto a winding path beyond.

Once you cross through, the vines grow rapidly to cover the open space behind you, and the voices of your fellow idols fade from your ears. It seems as if you’re on your own, now.

❀ ❀ ❀

Here, the vines that surround your path have wine red leaves, sometimes wound through with barbed wire; it looks like someone's hung prayer strips along them, written in an indecipherable language.

The little creatures are carrying some things for you—the owls carry a wreath of Star of Bethlehem, wild rose, and alyssum flowers, the origami animals a wreath of vervain, aconite, and water lily, and the bombs a wreath of aconite, gorse, and hollyhock. As they approach you, the air shifts in a strange way, and suddenly they have one wreath between them—all those flowers woven together into one, which they offer to you. They also have for you a collection of sixteen different flowers, and a small lantern of blue flame.

If it is not your advice then it is without merit.

[He kisses him softly on the lips.]

Let us see how it plays out.

Alright.

[But only because he can't say no.

And because he desperately needs another kiss, actually. Clinging increases.]

[He winces a little. Use your words!]

A bit tight, love.

- Sorry.

[Well in that case he backs off, releasing Lahabrea from his grip. But still stays right up in his space, pressed against him.]

You do not have to let go. I simply need some circulation in my arm.

[Oh! Well time to snatch his hand then.]

...Good. I need you. Let me keep a hold of you.

[He squeezes his fingers.]

Of course. I quite like you clinging to me.

Do you need anything else?

Just you. And anything you want of me, I suppose.

[Is this much different from normal? Like aside from it being out in the open.

He leans in to give another kiss though.]

[It's basically just putting the private stuff out there? It's not that different?

Well it is more intense, he might not be able to handle not being within reach of Lahabrea now! Also very obedient. That one's probably the biggest difference!

Kiss is the best thing that could happen to him right now.]

[Obedience is cute he definitely won't abuse this whatsoever but also like, isn't Vergil usually obedient even when he pretends not to be?]

You're very cute this way.

[Even if he dislikes how this happened!]
