Huh... You know, you're right. Maybe that's exactly what it is - an illusion taken from our memories, or something? That would make sense with how things are just like we remember at them, even before we left.
[Or a dream? Hard to say. Regardless, there's suddenly a spark of stardust.
Bradley looks exactly as he usually does, the suit and the jacket over his shoulders. A blue haired man stands before him, dressed warmly. "After that, Boss, about our upcoming preparations..."
Bradley looks at him, amused grin at his lips, "Hey, just call me Brad. We don’t have that kind of relationship anymore, right? You're like a partner to me."
Immediately, the blue haired man is flustered. " I-I can't possibly do that. You’re the boss. I’m just your underling..."
Bradley strides across the space, looping an arm around his shoulders, "Don't be so distant now, Nero. I only got this far because of you. How many times do you think your advice saved me from a close call with death? I would have turned into stone a long time ago without ya. Our enemies and allies both know that you're number two. Just call me Brad. Go on, try saying it."
Nero's shaking and red but slowly, "... Br... Brad......"
"Yeah. ...Ahaha! What are you getting embarrassed for!" He ruffles Nero's hair, voice full of warmth.
Nero pouts for a moment, but his face is bright red and he's smiling. "Shut up...
...I'm happy, Boss...... No...... Brad.
I’ll make sure I’m someone worthy of your acknowledgement — a man you won’t be ashamed to call your partner. You can count on it." ]
