[It's all Marco's fault, calling him brother again and again. At the end he has come to believe it. To want it. To be Marco's brother, to meet all of Marco's family and be part of it. To meet a man so different from his real father, who would take and call sons guys that no one else would want.]
Good. Not that it would have mattered anyway, I do what I want with my body.
[Tsun, tsun, tsun. He doesn't complain about the noggies or snuggles though, he's... Really, really glad too. Having several brothers isn't new to him, brothers at whose side he fights, isn't new either. But Marco is a phoenix too, even more than Ikki is, they can share the burden of what that means better than with anyone else, the haunting threat of a lonely future surrounded by ashes. Yes, he's really happy that Marco considers him a brother.]

Thank you, brother.
