[ Gently but firmly. He may still be a nag to others, but he's definitely grown a bit more softer in how he coaxes Leona.
He holds it out to him. ]
He's just a child and clearly loves and misses you. You could at least write back.
[ His boyfriend is a big cat though, so he knows he's going to be contrary. Which means.. ]
Of course, if you want him to keep writing to you, then I suppose there's no helping it.
[ He holds up Cheka's envelope, almost provoking. That usually works on Leona- and besides, that might mean a longer letter for his nephew and less reason for the little one to write constantly. ]
[ Smiling to himself! And he'll pull Leona down on the floor cushions and low table so they can sit comfortably. And so he can lean against Leona as he arranges his textbooks. ]
... terrible at spelling, isn't he? But he sounded those words out quite well.
[ He knows Leona will probably want to help on his own. He's helped underclassmen study before without revealing he does it.
Epel's said as much too. ]
Perhaps it's at a good time seeing as we need to write this report on Sunset Savanna.
[ Leona is still being a big baby about it, unfortunately. He might write back in a while, or he might just go in person of something. Maybe pick a day Falena isn't going to breathe down his neck.
[ One day he'll get Leona to admit he actually likes the baby. For now, though, he makes himself comfortable, turning to glance at him at his question. ]
Visit? I suppose it would be nice to see it in person without any work involved.
[ Vil's father has traveled around the world with him when he was younger, so he'd still like to travel on his own and enjoy the different regions for himself. ]
[ With all of this attention, Leona is bound to do anything that Vil asks of him. So he nods again. If he wants to be shown around...well, it can't helped. ]
Whose ta say why I want to go back home.
[ He's being shy about it. He knows that there is an event soon, and maybe he wants Vil to come experience it. Maybe meet his family. His nephew, really. Then he could see what like is like back at home for him. ]
[ That- actually makes him look a bit surprised. Leona wants to introduce him to his family? The family he's been consistently running away from all this time, to the point of repeating years in Night Raven College so he doesn't have to go back?
He can feel his cheeks warm as he looks ahead of him, though his red ears must be giving it all away... ]
I see... Will it be alright if I stay where you are? I'm not a royal, after all.
[ Just subtly asking if he actually intends to keep him with him, or will they have to stay in different locations. ]
... I'd be happy to meet your brother and nephew. I wasn't able to look after him the last time he visited the school.
[Leona just thinks this is the normal progression of things, honestly! Leona may avoid his family most of the time, but his cold heart is still somewhat warm. Somewhat.
He kisses Vil’s red ears.
His own ears lift at the question. ]
You would stay with me, where else would ya stay?
[ Status difference between the two of them definitely not computing.]
Ya had other things to do, he’s Falena’s responsibility anyways.
[ Damnit Leona, his ears are blushy! That makes them sensitive! He exhales and looks at their books, all studying very nearly forgotten. ]
Leona, wait, if I stay with you at the palace... are you certain your family will be alright with it? I'm a model and actor... I don't want you getting any bad press for it.
[ Oh. A festival! He does seem to brighten at that, and he knows it will definitely be good for him to expand his horizons- which, so soon after the experience he got with Sam's is really good.
... and this time he gets to do it with someone he loves...
To say he's feeling bashful inside doesn't begin to cover it. But he grins a bit. ]
This makes me think you may have given this some thought already. How cute of you.
[ He turns his head and leans his own back to kiss his cheek. ]
I'll be glad to, then. Though... what will you say about us, should your family ask? Are they fine with you dating someone who isn't a royal?
[ He did figure that he would be happy if he were to hear that Leona wanted him to come. He wants Vil to start getting used to being at his side, because that is what main mates do.
Does Vil even know he is the main mate? Likely the only mate Leona would care to have energy for? ]
[ Cute... and Vil... has an inkling. He's not sure how this will work and he's stopped thinking of how it won't work for now, but...
This is nice. He chuckles to himself then and rests the side of his head against his. ]
Can't lie to them. Then perhaps, you'd consider coming to visit my hometown, too. And meeting my father. I can't wait to introduce him to someone who hasn't seen a single movie of his.
[ He is a little stunned, seeing as, he is sort of not the person you take home. Royalty or not, Leona is sort of a pain in the ass to deal with. Especially when he gets into his moods.
He just ducks his head, pressing kisses to his neck. ]
Y'okay, really? With coming back to Sunset Savanna with me?
If you can stand the cold. Even in the summer, there can be a chill every now and then.
[ He can feel Leona getting a bit bashful, and he tilts his head to receive his kisses, smiling to himself as he lifts a hand to stroke his hair and encourage him to keep kissing. ]
And you'd have to do everything on your own without Ruggie picking up after you.
[ Ah, this tickles. Is Leona purring...? ]
I'll go with you. I said so, didn't I? Are you afraid I'll back off? Vil Schoenheit never does anything without putting in 100%, remember?
[ He'll loosen his uniform tie just a bit more and unbutton his collar so Leona has more access to his neck. ]
But we still have to study... what do you think I should do to make the best impression?
I am. Don't think I'll let you wander around all badly groomed.
[ Vil can be such a stickler for it that he'll forego makeouts just to attend to his appearance. And Leona's too. With a smile, he turns Leona's head his way to kiss him properly, before breaking it to bump his nose up against his. ]

Glad there isn't much gossip, then.
[ He does look thoughtful. ]
Are you going to open the letter any time soon? It's from your nephew, after all...
no subject
[ He regards the letter, shrugging. ]
Didn’t plan on it.
[ What a baby. ]
no subject

no subject
He keeps one arm around Vil (because his) and opens the envelope to read it. ]
He’s a pain in my side.
[Secretly though, he loves his nephew. The problem has always been with Falena. ]
no subject

He sighs a little. ]
Y'ever wanted to visit?
no subject
Visit? I suppose it would be nice to see it in person without any work involved.
[ Vil's father has traveled around the world with him when he was younger, so he'd still like to travel on his own and enjoy the different regions for himself. ]
... is that an invitation?
no subject
He tilts his lips into a smile. ]
It is.
[ Because that would be helpful for whatever they need to do, and then his annoying nephew can see him in person for a while. ]
If ya wanna go, that is.
no subject
As long as you make the effort to show me around.
[ He bumps his nose up against his. ]
... Isn't there a special event happening sometime soon? Is that why you want to go?
no subject
Whose ta say why I want to go back home.
[ He's being shy about it. He knows that there is an event soon, and maybe he wants Vil to come experience it. Maybe meet his family. His nephew, really. Then he could see what like is like back at home for him. ]
... there is somethin' comin' up soon.
no subject
He smiles to himself, not wanting to tease Leona all that much about it, but he can't help but stroke the side of his face. ]
That is to say, I'll go, whenever it happens. I suppose I should read up on customs proper. I wouldn't want to do anything to offend your people.
[ He moves to open up one of the textbooks. ]
Though you may have to give me some personal instruction yourself, your royal highness.
no subject
[He shrugs, leaning into all of the affection. He would teach Vil what he needed to know, but it’s hardly anything he probably already doesn’t know. ]
My nephew and my brother will want to make sure ya have a good stay.
[ Leona too.]
no subject

[ Ah, there it is. It is a festival. Something bright and happy.
Leona might be lukewarm on his family but traditions are traditions he guesses.]
So stay with me.
[He doesn’t care about the press anyways.]
no subject

no subject
[ He is purring as he kisses. It’s just a cat thing. He’s content enough!]
You can help me when I am there. I will need someone to help tend to my outfits. Yer gonna get one to wear too.
[ Also he needs help with his hair. Falena would be happy if Leona were acceptable presenting for once.]
no subject
[ Really, Leona? He huffs and leans his head back, so he can kiss over his jaw. ]
That's sneaky of you, your royal highness. Seems like you're showering me with affection so I'll agree... and it may be working.
no subject
[ By bugging him and nagging him and paying attention to him. It’s care enough.]
Thought ya would be thrilled to know I trust ya with my appearance.
no subject
[ Vil can be such a stickler for it that he'll forego makeouts just to attend to his appearance. And Leona's too. With a smile, he turns Leona's head his way to kiss him properly, before breaking it to bump his nose up against his. ]
What's this festival in honor of, anyway?
