On the opposite side of the map across the large church and around the shack nearest the gate palettes were broken but the sound of a sword swinging the occasional deep chuckle and a camera being switched on.
Joseph struts towards the embalmer who had just vaulted a window looking over at his dearest photographer " oh amour but it's been so long since we have been on a date let alone had time together " Joseph spoke as he blinked swinging hus sword "HAH- NON!" Aesop had already vaulted the window once again knowing that his lover was going to blink.
" Even so the amount of times we've been caught alone has gotten on my nerves you should really put a lock on your door mister desaulniers" aesop says his mask covering his mouth so you couldn't see his smirk though his eyes were smiling.
He didn't show it much but he truly missed his favourite hunter. A man who shone light into his life and showed what a person who truly cared about him was actually like. He
Joseph had caught up with the embalmer swinging his sword yet again. The photographer responds "and i keep telling you every time i put a lock on my doors it wouldn't matter since the amount of people who can teleport a majority of them being hunters little carl- AH!" The photographer being interrupted by a pallete crashing on his head, The hunters vision going blank for a few seconds.
"Ah i apologise joseph and you are right " Aesop days on the other side of the pallet with a worried expression. "It's alright my love i understand" the hunter states with a wince as he rubs the side of his head. Breaking the palette their game of cat and mouse continues as well as their conversation "either way little carl which realm shall we find ourselves in and when?" Joseph grabs aesop by the hand, hooks one arm around the survivors waist pulling him closer and kissing the back of his gloved hand, immediately regretting it when he tasted dust spitting out the particles.
This caused Aesop to let out a chuckle one hand pulling down his mask, using his other hand to cup Joseph's jaw and leaning in to kiss his cheek a few times. Pulling away just as quickly as he was pulled into the embrace he walks past the hunter who let out a yelp when the embalmer's hand smacked his tush playfully.
"How about a dinner in the asylum? People hardly go there and it's quiet?" Aesop suggests " we can eat in the piano room I'll even play us something if you'd like? Tonight perhaps? " the survivor quickens his pace when hearing the deep chuckle of his beloved, which caused him to let out a quiet laugh of his own. "That sounds splendid my darling shall i meet you at 9pm? How does that sound?" The hunter was about to swing his sword again when the sounds of the siren called throughout the map letting everyone know the gates were ready to be opened cutting their conversation short.
The hunter immediately stopped with his attack and simply put his sword back at his side smiling over at the embalmer who smiles back. wrapping his arms around the photographer's neck the two both lean into each other lips touching in a sweet farewell kiss. "That sounds wonderful my love I'll see you there" Aesop responds reluctantly pulling himself away and walking towards the exit gates.
Watching him go the photographer only smirked as he suddenly vanished after flipping a photograph.

The four survivors Naib, Eli, Luca and now Aesop stood at the gates whilst the decoder was trying to open it. The embalmer not really thinking in the present but thinking about his little date later on. He didn't show it on his face but he was truly excited about what was to come.
The finally opened luca being the first to walk along with naib and Eli treading along hands linked together whilst aesop walked much slower than they did, things took a different turn however.
"BOO!" The hunter appeared in front of luca with a wide playful smile watching as the survivors almost jumped out of their skins Letting out girly screams. Luca being the first to book it before he soiled himself and the other couple following after him.
The only one left was Aesop crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow the two silently staring at each other before they both burst into laughter. Only Joseph got to see the embalmer laugh at all and honestly he found it to be the cutest sound he had ever heard.
Strutting over joseph scooped aesop up repeatedly kissing all over his face and chuckling as he heard the occasional "joseph! Ack" the two doing this for a few more seconds before the hunter let go placing aesop back to the floor.
The couple then kissed a few more times but they were nothibg but sweet and short. "Little carl we must go now" Joseph chuckles once again as he pulled away his delicat looking hands brushing gray hair out of his lovers face.
"Alright" Aesop gave the photographer one more kiss before running towards the exit looking back and letting out an "i love you" earning him a smile, a bow and an "i love you too"
Their match now open and aesop heading back to the manor the two were truly excited for their date.
