"Hmm... be careful with my soul, it's awfully fragile after all the destructions and the repairs and fixings, even with the Atlas. I might even revert back to fearing myself again, someday, for all I know."
"But--"
Kisses lightly.
"But I trust you with it. Only you and the Paladins. So if I'm ever afraid of myself and avoid myself and the word, you have my express permission to drag me out, always, kicking and screaming if need be. Just know this, Beloved."
"Wait. I don't have to say 'you and Paladins', I kind of sort of made you a Paladin. Well, so to speak. Atlas is not quite a Lion, just like Atlas is not quite a, hmm, me, or Shiro. It's all that and her own self, too. And it's a 'her', I think. At least Pidge's Dad thinks so, and he knows ships well."
"No matter what, I will be here." The kiss feels nice and broadens Ziggy's smile.
"I'll just come and cuddle up with you until you are happy enough to come out again.... or kicking and screaming." Ziggy laughs because he can imagine Hiroki being this stubborn.
"I am your paladin and soon your wife too." Ziggy raises a brow. "Next time we are in the Atlas, I can ask it. Maybe it will tell me?"
"Know what? I should tell you daily, but. But. You. Are. The best. And no hald-baked clone of some unfortunate accidentally kidnapped magical space explorer deserves you, so I'm a very lucky half-baked clone and wouldn't have it any other way today."
