Blank made his way back towards the hideout, a loaf of bread tucked under his arm, an apple resting between his teeth and a book open in his hand. He was reading as he walked along, stepping over anything that got under his feet.

He frowned a little seeing that thedoor was ajar. Closing the book, he placed it under his arm with the bread, taking the apple from his mouthas he stepped inside, eyes scanning the room, soon falling on the familiar figure.

"Welcome home, Bro."

He crossed the room, placing the book and the bread on the table, tossing the half-eaten apple to Zidane. "Did you fix things with Queenie?"

Zidane had been lost in thought when Blank entered, and he sat up a bit from his slump, smiling as his had snatched out to catch the tossed apple.

"Thanks man," he took a bite of the apple and grinned. Now that Blank was here, he found he was immediately feeling better. It was important to know someone else was around. Tantalus wasn't just him. That would've been...

He didn't know what that would've been.

"Yeah, of course I did," his grin got a bit wider as he hopped off the bed and walked over to Blank, tossing an arm around the other man's shoulder. "I'm gettin' married! But don't tell anybody, alright? It's a secret." He pushed away then, dropping down to sit on the edge of the table.

That news kinda shocked Blank, even though it really shouldn't've come as any real surprise. Looked like their days of 'who-can-bed-the-ladies-first' competitions were out of the window. "Heh. Someone finally been able to tame you, huh?"

It would be strange, Zidane being King and all, and he'd probably be busy all the time and never get to have any fun, but Blank was happy for him. Of course he was. Zidane was one of his best friends, if Zidane was happy, he was happy. "Congratulations, bro."

He leaned over, ruffling Zidane's hair. "Don't worry, my lips are sealed."

Zidane just laughed. "Tamed? Eh, I guess. But you've seen Dagger. If I were gonna be shackled to one woman, she might as well be perfect." And yes, Zidane really did pretty much think Dagger was perfect. Pretty and smart and able to keep up with him? Yeah, that was hard to find.

"Thanks man. And seriously. It shouldn't be a secret too long, only a couple weeks, but..." Zidane shrugged. He didn't want to try and explain it, just because he didn't want to get annoyed about it again. He didn't want it to be secret, after all. Not when he'd finally made the decision.

"So...what's going on? You were serious about everyone bein' missing, huh?"
