[RL with Lancer - first date.]

[unknownrival]

Issei was nervous. He didn't remember being this nervous since his first date with Haruto, years ago. He was fidgeting for reasons other than the mild cold as he waited outside his temple gates.

What was he going to do? He had only a vague idea of what to do and what if Diarmuid didn't like any of his plans? What if he made him upset?

He didn't want to ruin their friendship. Not at all.

Issei let out a sigh. "He should be here soon... I'll have to stop panicking by then."

Lancer was no less nervous than Issei--possibly more so, given he was dealing with foreign customs of a foreign era. He just needed to relax, to act like nothing had changed.

Easier said than done. But no, he would just trust Issei's judgment on what to do, and follow along attentively. He was excellent at following others; in fact, it might well have been one of the things he was best at.

When he arrived, it was in the same clothes he'd worn to visit Makoto, amulet hidden underneath his shirt and a hesitant smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, am I late?"
