[Some people will recognize this odd man with a hole in his head. But today, well, maybe it's just the video quality, but he's got a different energy about him? It's hard to pin down why. Maybe he's standing a little straighter.]

Um... I've been lucky to get to know a lot of you better over the past month. People have been very kind to me, and I'm grateful. But... I've remembered some things. And I know now that it's not fair of me to keep this to myself. Before I came here, I drilled holes in people's heads. Two of them survived but six of them died. I don't plan on drilling anyone else unless they want me to, but if you don't want to be around me because of this, I understand.
[Closing his eyes a moment.]

On a different note, I want everyone to know that I love Grell Sutcliff and one day soon I'm going to marry her! That's all.
[He's really gonna follow up that first thing with this?]

Comments

[holeful]

But I wanted to surprise you! When I woke up this morning suddenly I had it all back... Besides, we're already engaged. Doesn't that sort of imply a wedding at some point?

[He's having fun.]

[brightred]

You did surprise me! How am I supposed to get an engagement party organized at such short notice? [Grell, an engagement party is not required.]

[holeful]

[Fukuda just assumes that's a thing they must do in England.]

I mean, soon is a pretty general term? It can be as much time as you need.

[brightred]

But the engagement party needs to happen tonight, now that you've announced it!

[holeful]

[WELL NOW HE'S ALARMED.]

It does?? Grell I didn't even know an engagement party was a thing...

[brightred]

Well now you do! What are you going to do about it?

[holeful]

[He has no idea! So he has to buy time.]

Maybe I should come find you so we can talk about it in person?

[brightred]

... all right. [she'll let him know where she is, she's actually out and about right now, exploring.]

-> action

[holeful]

[How is she going to fuck him immediately if they're out in public?? Poor planning. Anyway Fukuda is dutifully heading out to find her promptly instead of dragging his feet so he can think of a plan. So he arrives no better off than before. He's just gonna come up behind her and put his arms over her shoulders.]

Hey.
[He's trying to be cool about it.]

[brightred]

[It's him, of course. No one else would be so daring or so forward. And she knows his voice, the feeling of him.

She turns, grabs at the fabric of his clothing and pulls on him to close the distance between them, so she can kiss him, hard and needy.]

[holeful]

[Oh!! Yes!! He wasn't expecting it so soon but maybe his cool move helped... Surely it has nothing to do with the month Grell had to wait. Anyway, of course he's going to kiss back. Leaning forward, putting his hand at the small of Grell's back to dip her slightly. He'll indulge for a minute, but then there's a lot he wants to say. To start;]

I'm sorry for making you wait, my Juliet.
[He's so corny I hate him.]

[brightred]

[She's dipped, and laughs. She's still holding to his shirt, unwilling to let go.]

I missed you so much, my darling Romeo~

[holeful]

[That's fine. He's going to plant a few more kisses on her, her nose, her cheek, her jaw, her neck.]

Still, even when I couldn't remember, I still felt drawn to you, you know? I think some part of me still knew.

[brightred]

... you did, didn't you. [She murmurs, returning that peppering of kisses with some of her own.]

I knew it. [It hurts, somehow. She still hasn't settled into not missing him, into the reality of this situation. He knew her, he felt drawn to her. To her, like he really does love her.]

[holeful]

[That's because he does love you, you ridiculous woman.]

Mmm...
[It's nice, just being passively close again. It's a weird sensation, because he didn't exactly miss her in the same way, and his recovered memories feel so fresh. But still, in an abstract way, he missed this.]

What happened to making me beg to be taken back three times?
[He didn't even get a chance to try since you kissed him immediately.]

[brightred]

You made me wait too long. I got impatient.

[holeful]

I guess I'll just have to beg for something else later.
[HELLO??? SIR???]

So what's this about an engagement party?
[Just gonna have this conversation standing as close to Grell as physically possible.]

[brightred]

[She'll make him beg, but later, when she isn't holding him close to her.

Oh, right, she's supposed to be annoyed with him.]

You did announce our engagement to everyone.

[holeful]

[You know you don't HAVE to be annoyed.]

I wanted people to know you were spoken for. That I'm your man.
[Marking his territory....]

[brightred]

... say that again.

[holeful]

[Usually people just repeat the second thing he thinks, so;]

I’m your man?

[brightred]

You're wonderful~

[holeful]

[He laughs!]

It was something miss Setsura said to me! She called me your man and I liked it.
[He's glad Grell likes it too!!!]

[brightred]

I like it too! [She says, kissing him again.]

[holeful]

[Nice...]

I can think of some other things we should do instead of this engagement party.
[Maybe he can distract her.]
