[It was good to see that his priest hadn't become completely unrecognizable in the time that Mukuro had been gone. He smirked into his chicken, taking another bite happily when the priest couldn't meet his gaze.
He was about to say it sounded like a good idea for him to travel, to find time to miss him and that next time he'd have dinner ready for him when he returned when- He opened his mouth to speak, only to close it again at the invitation, eyes wide. My, my, apparently absence did make the heart grow fonder. He couldn't help the warmth that spread through his limbs, the way his expression softened, how he leaned forward so that their knees were brushing, his eyes burning.]
Why would you want that, Chikusa Kakimoto? Wouldn't it only trouble you more if I accompanied you?
[He shouldn't be questioning him, he should be jumping at this opportunity, but he was still aware of how tenuous their relationship still was. Why was the priest inviting him? Was he afraid of being lonely on the road? Had Mukuro proven how adept he could be against demons? Or was he just looking forward to being able to sin far away from anyone he knew?]
