Part 445: Virion C

It's remarkable how much rubbish an army on the march leaves behind!

I'd best pitch in and help clean up. ...Ungh! This is heavier than it looks!

*Gasp* It suddenly feels lighter! But how?!

Such slender, delicate arms are ill-suited to this kind of work!

...Virion?

Please! Allow gentle Virion to carry this! I think there's a pillow over there that needs moving if you want to help.

Oh. Yes, well, thank you, Virion.

Think nothing of it, milady! A woman of your beauty shouldn't be reduced to hauling trash.

......

What's the matter, sweet Libra? Did I say something wrong?

I'm a man.

Ha ha ha! Not only are you beautiful, you have wit to...

Erm, to match? Yes? Hmm... Except now that I look more closely at your face... *gulp*

It's all right. it happens a lot. I'm sorry I was cross.

You had every right to be cross, good sir! Ah ha ha! Oh, my. How could I, Virion, make such an error? Me! VIRION! Oh my stars...

Are you all right?

N-nothing! It's just that... your eyes are... so very shiny and pretty... Like two pools... of... something...

Can we just get back to work?
