‘ this is the youngest we’ll ever be again. ’
Tumblr media
          HE   AGREES   .   Of   course   he   does   ,   though   he   doesn’t   let   it   show   ,   doesn’t   want   to   encourage   her   to   rope   him   into   such   a     childish   act     again   .   And   yet   he   finds   that   another   part   of   himself   (   his   heart   ,   was   it   ?   Surely   he   had   tucked   that   away   long   ago…   )   was   wistfully   yearning   for   otherwise   .   How   Kamui   managed   to   convince   him   to   help   raid   the   castle   kitchens   was   beyond   him   ,   though   couldn’t   find   it   within   himself   to   complain   —   not   when   she   was   dragging   him   down   the   halls   with   the   biggest   ,   purest   smile   on   her   face   and   her   hand   still   firmly   grasped   in   his   .
          EVEN   NOW   ,   she   still   had   that   huge   ,   cherubic   grin   on   her   face  as   she   stuffs   her   mouth   full   with   cookies   ,   pastries   ,   and   whatever   else   she’d   managed   to   pull   from   the   pantry   .   And  without   even   realizing   it   ,   Joker   finds   his   expression   changing   to   mirror   her   own   —   minus   the   crumbs   that   dusted   her   lips   and   the   spot   of   jelly   that   stubbornly   clung   to   a   rosy   cheek   .   —   before   quickly   catching   himself   and   brushing   it   off   as   an   empty   sigh   instead   .   
                                                Only   she   had   this   effect   on   him   .

          “   MY   LADY   ,   you   mustn’t   eat   too   much   ,   lest   you’ll   find   yourself   with   a   full   stomach   come   breakfast   time   .   “   Though   his   tone   holds   no   strict   demeanor   ,   they   lack   the   firmness   he   once   maintained   .   The   Joker   from   four   years   ago   would’ve   never   been   so   lenient   with   Kamui   ,   never   been   so   easily   swayed   by   a   mere   smile   and   outstretched   hand   .   And   yet   ,   here   he   was:   willingly   sitting   on   the   kitchen   floor   with   a   plate   of   cookies   on   one   side   and   his   giggling   mistress   on   the   other   .   “      ...   Perhaps   we   could   extend   the   invitation   to   Gunter   next   time?   Surely   the   old   man   could   use   a   lesson   or   two   on   being   younger   .   “
          YES   ,   PERHAPS   forgoing   decorum   wasn’t   so   bad   –   especially   when   he   gets   to   see   Kamui   beaming   up   at   him   with   a   smile   like   that   .
