YET ANOTHER PSL AU POST BECAUSE WE ARE MONSTERS.

LITERALLY.

Kinda the premise.

[ Algric turns a bit to kiss his head. ]

Of course, Jon.

[He glances down at their hands again, just... Taking in the sight of that ring on his burned hand.]

...Not something I ever thought I'd see.

[ Algric just smile down at that. ]

Neither did I.

We'll have yours soon too. Matching set.

Y-yes, god. I - I can scarcely believe it, but it's true.

[He'll lean up for a quick kiss.]

And we have.. Papers [Said with some amount of awe.] And it'll be official.

[ Algric returns it. ]

Still can't believe Martin managed.

I can't either. I don't know what he even did. I was planning to take care of it after you handled Elias.

Well now you don't have to. We just need to kill Elias.

..Yes, you do.

[Pointedly... keeping himself out of that. Since Algric asked him.]

How will you get down there? I mean, besides 'the tunnels'.

[ He appreciates that. ]

W-well - the tunnels. But also the Leitner, I think.

Of course.

Where would you start.

Mm, well. Leitner's not dead yet, so ... I suppose find him in the tunnels first. Steal his book.

[Jonah sort of.. Stares at him. He's trying to get Algric to see the important part without pointing it out but-]

And would you have to go through the Institute to get into the tunnels?

W-well - well yes, but - I'll keep the Lonely close. He won't be able to see me.

[ Nevermind how inconsistent it's been lately. ]

And Tim?

I'll extend it to him too.

[ Nevermind the Desolation will burn through it. Nevermind he can scarcely cover himself. ]

...I'm loathe to bring this up, but. Even when you went down there with Peter, the both of you, Elias still saw you going down there and followed you.

-- What?

He literally walked out of prison when you were both going to meet you there. He beat me there even.

I - I didn't realise.

So. That's- that's why I'm asking. What the plan is.

...

We've got time to work on it.

Right. We... We do.

[Another soft, lingering kiss before resting his head against Algric's shoulder.]

[ He pets the back of Jonah's head. ]

Thank you for staying out of it.
