[The Host Club is now OPEN]

[hanihunny]

The room had been almost empty and seemingly deserted when Hunny found it. But he knew it was the perfect place for the Host Club meetings. A quick look told him it was about the same size as the music room that they used at school for this

Iphigenia might be nearby, and when she sees Titus, she grins--she thinks he looks silly and adorable all at once.

"Hello!"

[ohmaiden]

Iphigenia giggles. "Oh, I see! So you're mysterious."

[77th_earl]

"I must be doing it well, if I had to explain what I am," he says, with a wryly humorous note.

[ohmaiden]

"Hm, perhaps," she replies, grinning back at him.

[77th_earl]

"I regret, I don't think of myself as being mysterious, and part of me would set aside my crown for good, but perhaps I have simply been too close to either, till now," he says.

[ohmaiden]

"Do what you want, Titus," she replies, smiling in what she hopes is a reassuring manner. "I won't mind."

[77th_earl]

He smiles. "Then I shall stay till I have learned what this place can teach me and till it allows me to depart, but not a moment sooner," he replies. "I pray that day does not come for a long time."

[ohmaiden]

"--I hope you stay for a long time," she says softly. "I know I can't leave, so..."

[77th_earl]

He leans in, close to her ear, his cheek close to her hair. "I give you my word: I shan't leave you alone here, if it is in my power to see to it that I stay here," he says, gently.

[ohmaiden]

She nods, blushing deeply. "--Thank you."

[77th_earl]

He pulls away, glancing around a bit sheepishly. "Shall I... Shall I fetch you some tea?" he asks, clearly wondering if they've been spotted and if this is really proper.

[ohmaiden]

"Oh, it's all right," she replies, smiling a bit naughtily. "Do you have to stay here the whole time, or can you...leave?"

[77th_earl]

"I think that I am, but... you are my only client at the moment, and I don't think that I would be missed," he says, glancing away again, double-checking that no one is watching.

[ohmaiden]

"Mm. So...you could leave. With me."

[77th_earl]

"I could, I think, as long as I;m not missed," he says, glancing around, then slipping his hand inside hers.

[ohmaiden]

She squeezes his hand tight and reaches to kiss him. "Good."
