[An upbeat male voice comes on:]

Hey, it's Morgan! If you were expecting a girl, you picked the wrong picture. If not, then congratulations! But sorry too, because this means I've missed you. Leave a message!

No false starts, unintentional flirting, breaking your heart, making you sad... and I should always be there for you and take care of you! Which was my plan to begin with, actually.

[ So that works out. ]

[bloodandblunder]

I... see. [ and she'll briefly close her eyes. ] So Morgan told you a lot.

[memlost]

[ He softens and brings his arms around her, welcoming her to a hug. ]

That was the whole of it. I didn't ask for the details.

[bloodandblunder]

[ It's an offer she'll accept, as she moves to rest her forehead against his. ]

Morgan... if you want to ask me anything, you're welcome to.

[memlost]

[ Does he want to know...? He considers that for a moment, forehead to hers, before answering. ]

What was it you liked about him?

[bloodandblunder]

... That he never gave up. He didn't view himself as anything special, but he was always trying to get stronger and to improve himself. And he never considered me a burden, no matter how much trouble I put him through.

He... really was one of my closest friends here.

[memlost]

Hmm... He sounds like a really good person.

[ Dilemma... ]

[bloodandblunder]

Ah, he is! I know Morgan was angry with him, but he really wasn't bad!

[memlost]

[ On one hand, he and Morgan tend to make the same assessments. On the other... ]

I thought that might be the case. You wouldn't like someone for no reason.

[bloodandblunder]

Mm... and there were even more reasons to like you.

[memlost]

... Heh.

[ There's no reason to be jealous, is there? If she feels the same way for him as he does for her, then there's nothing to worry about. ]

I count myself lucky every day. Thank you, Noire.

[bloodandblunder]

That really should be my line-- at any rate, there's no need to thank me. I feel very lucky myself.

[ to be on his... lap... ]

[memlost]

[ He feels very lucky about that too, let it be known... ]

Well, I think that's all I was really curious about. If there's ever a chance, I'll have to meet him myself.

[bloodandblunder]

I'd like that... [ and she smiles, a little bashfully. ] I think he would, too.

[memlost]

Good! ... As long as he understands that there are no takebacks.

[ Even if she wouldn't respond, other guys hitting on Noire isn't permitted!! ]

[bloodandblunder]

Takeba-- o-oh no, it's not like that! Like I said, I'm completely yours!

[memlost]

And I'm yours, now and forever. I think anyone would have to be absolutely peanutty not to have you given the chance.

[bloodandblunder]

There you go again, giving me too much credit... [ and this is an embarrassed murmur. ]

[memlost]

[ He just chuckles and sits up again, encircling her waist before she has a chance to slip away. ]

[bloodandblunder]

[ Like she would-- she'll just make a questioning noise. ]

Ah... I'm not going anywhere yet, Morgan.

[memlost]

[ He kisses her neck once before snuggling into it. ]

And not any time soon, I hope. You're my favorite pillow.

[bloodandblunder]

[ She'll squirm a little with a stifled giggle; that tickles! ]

It's all right... I don't have anywhere else to be. Or anywhere I'd rather be, for that matter.

[memlost]

[ He smiles and holds her a little closer when she squirms. ]

Not even... the hot springs? Or the beach?!

[ HE LOVES THOSE PLACES... ]

[bloodandblunder]

The last time we went to the hot springs, I overheated and Kjelle had to save me from drowning... s-so probably not.

[memlost]

Then... the beach! Everyone loves the beach, right?
