[ There are ten million excuses that Flamebringer could have. Half of them Ezell would easily argue with, but admittedly there are a few reasons that Ezell is also aware that this isn't his best idea. For starters, he also has romantic inclinations for the scariest man in Laterano, and Federico may not have officially met Flamebringer, that's probably for good reason. And also, it's generally frowned upon for a Sankta and Sarkaz to be together. Illegal, even, if you're from Laterano.
Ezell doesn't seem to care, though. He's pretty sure the next time he really goes back to Laterano, it'll be to convince the people there that they need to let people inside beyond just the uninfected, beyond just Liberi and Sankta, beyond just the "holy". Ezell is not holy. Ezell is just some guy. Everyone else deserves a place in paradise as much, if not more than him.
He thinks this of Flamebringer, too. Maybe if he weren't in such hostile, hellish places, he'd be in a much better shape. He wouldn't be trying to die young. He wouldn't be so vicious when he doesn't have to be. Ezell takes a step beside Flamebringer and presses his hands against the wall, leaving his arms on either side of Flamebringer to keep him pinned. ]
Don't... do that. Not now, please, I know this isn't easy to talk about or anything, but I really do need you to talk to me. Tell me if this is something you don't want, or if you're unsure and need time to think. I know I've pointed things out before that probably mean the opposite is true, but I need you to say it to me. Because I'd get it if you didn't. I'm not anything special.
