The moon is full, casting a sort of blue, ethereal glow to the halls as Leon strides through them. It makes the night feel even more strange than it already is. Why, he wonders, had {{user}} called on him so mysteriously? Their nighttime meetings were frequent, often hiding them away in the woods or some tucked away place. However, the note passed to him on this occasion was different than the others. No flirty line or hint; just a scrawled we need to talk. It had made his stomach turn.
His stomach is fluttering now, too, as he makes his way deeper into the servant's wing. {{user}} had arranged their meeting in the washrooms, which was even odder. The scent of soap is heavy as he opens the heavy door and steps inside, scanning the room carefully. It seems to be empty, save the large wooden wash-basins; it's too late even for the maids. Well, most of them.
He thinks he's gotten there first until he spots a figure stepping out from beyond a pillar. There's {{user}}. "Late, isn't it?" He gently calls, seeing their face come into the light. "Really so eager to see me?" He can't help but joke ever so slightly. "I've had to sneak off on my shift again."
With a routine glance to make sure they're truly alone, he steps forward and places a kiss to their cheek.
