Chapter Text
Maybe I must have wandered too far, because I saw the actual God of Death. I grimaced, stepping back before he could notice me…But that didn’t seem to work. The guy turned his head over a little, peering over his shoulder. “Hm?..” He hummed, seeming a little annoyed. I jumped, startled, then I bowed down, apologizing “Aah! Im- Im so, so sorry for inconveniencing you…Sir- Sir Leowook..” Leo laughed. “You don’t need to do all of that…After all, you’re a God too, so you don’t really need to bow down..” Leo said, a light-hearted smile on his face. How could the God of Death be so nice?…I’d expected him to yell at me. This guy…He had really blonde hair. I’d almost mistaken it for white hair. It looked…Nice along with his yellow eyes. Not that im gay, though…

LEO
This dude was so nerdy. If it wasn’t for his strong aura, I’d think he was a really lost nerd. I’d heard so much about this guy, that he was powerful, and strong—but he seemed entirely different when I met him. Cube stayed silent, picking the skin from his fingers. It was silent for a while. I was waiting for him to say something. Not a single word came out of his mouth. The silence was killing me. I spoke up, anything other than this silence. I still hadn’t understood why he didn’t walk away. It seemed like he wanted to. I sighed, speaking up “You should get rid of those glasses, you look ineffably human..” Cube responded, offended “Well- I can’t see!” I chuckled, responding. “Contact lenses are a thing…And what’s with the rainbow hair? Not that it’s bad…It’s just different.”
“Hey! It’s- It’s fashion!” Cube’s face was red.
“Bad fashion. You look so human, it’s terrible.”
“You just don’t understand.”
“It’s…It looks bad.”
I was really lying, I just enjoyed the banter. He actually looked…Cute.

CUBE
Leo was really annoying, at this point I wanted to yell at him. After the banter, i awkwardly stood there—I didn’t know what to say. “Do you just sit there silently with every person you talk to?” Leo asked. “No- I just- Im thinking right now..” I quickly retorted, although I was lying. I fidgeted with my hair, waiting for something for some reason. “Hey. I gotta go. See you.” Leo said. I waved awkwardly.
