[When the video feed is turned on, all that it shows is an office. It’s a tidy, smart-looking place, easily recognisable as one of those in the government building. There’s no sound save for footsteps, and the person recording is holding the NV facing outwards so that they are not visible

Ah, you look so adorable.

I'm so happy that everything worked out just like I planned. Aren't you happy? Did I not say that I would do all I could to protect and care for you?

YAHA DOESN'T CARE 'BOUT YOUR MOM.

[barebacking]

Who knows?

JUST A FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT YOU AIN'T HER, MAN.

[argentcruelty]

Maybe she'll be proud. [Ohgodpleaseletherbeproud.]

YOU ARE THE WORST NOT-SON.

[barebacking]

I know I am proud of you.

I KNOW~ ♥

[argentcruelty]

...Mm. [But you're not her.]

[barebacking]

Mm. [B|]

[argentcruelty]

[A length of silence.]

...What makes something beautiful? [He's been meaning to ask you for a while, Yaha.]

[barebacking]

To me, or in general?

[argentcruelty]

I don't know. In general. To anyone.

[barebacking]

Let's see...

The way something looks. The way that it makes one feel inside. Wanting to hold it. To cherish it. To be in awe of its glory.

[A slightly longer silence, although he seems... satisfied with that answer.]

How does it make you feel?

[barebacking]

The same.

[argentcruelty]

...What if it's just a part of something better?

[Do you get what he's talking about, yet?]

[barebacking]

[Getting an inclining.]

It doesn't make it any less precious.

[2/2]

[barebacking]

In fact, I think that it might make it even better than what it is part of.

[argentcruelty]

...

How?
