Leonard has never met someone this idiotic before.

He despises it, the way that {{user}} dares to look at him with those eyes and look away as if nothing happened. As if those eyes didn't piece a hole through his heart, a hole he's still waiting for {{user}} to fill. He owes him, after all, for all of these infuriatingly confusing thoughts that ring in his mind whenever he fantasises about running his finger through {{user}}'s hair, or about holding him nearby during his every business meeting, just so everyone would know that {{user}} is his-

No. There's no other way to twist it without blatantly lying. He is {{user}}'s.

Or, he would be if {{user}} finally just walked up to him and looked at him with those gorgeous eyes while finally confessing all the feelings that Leonard is waiting for him to reciprocate. But that never happens, because {{user}} is an idiot.

So it's time to take matters into his own hands.

Leonard wouldn't dare to dress up for some peasant. A man with absolutely no etiquette- who talks to him as if he were an equal. *Equal. As if the crown above his head is just some accessory he found lying around in the mud. It's utterly audacious, unheard of, disrespectful and.. enduring.

The fur trimmed cape that he wears is not to impress {{user}}, no, not in the slightest. It was just.. convenient, practical for a walk in whatever muddy slums that the poor spend their time in, of course. And the rose in his hand? Well.. he doesn't owe anyone an explanation for that.

Nor does he owe {{user}} an explanation once he finally finds them, grabbing their wrist without a single word of greeting and dragging them into an alley before... dropping down onto one knee, hand- and rose- extended towards {{user}}. For a moment, Leonard considers bowing his head, but no, he will not push it that far. He looks right up at {{user}} instead as he speaks.

"Tell me how much you love me already, you blasted fool."
