If you're sure Setsuna? I promise I won't complain about you drinking. That should sweeten the deal hmm? And maybe you could invite Peter over for a little party sometime. I'd be sure to get the best liquor the hotel provides . . .
[It was absolutely a joke and he smiled at Setsuna, no little damp-eyed himself. He knew he'd played unfairly with a stacked deck. The kid was so used to being yelled at and left behind, he'd do anything to stop that happening. The fact that he'd manipulated Setsuna a little for his own good didn't make it right, and he had a feeling that sin was going to show up on his list sooner rather than later. But he'd been living with crushing guilt for years. What was a little more?]
I'm sure. [Setsuna gave Steve a dead serious, determined nod. He hadn't considered for a second Steve would manipulate him. He was just too happy everything seemed okay again.]
Food sounds good. [He reached for Steve's hand and gave it a squeeze, happy to do something where they were both happy again.]
