"Auntie, I'm sleepy, I wanna go home." Kilian said in a blank tone before pointing at Yuri, "And that man is very intoxicated. We should leave him here."
"No, no, Kil, we can't do that..." y/n sighed before giving Yuri a weary look, "But we should probably get going."
Before y/n could get up, Yuri slammed his hands on the table and caused Kilian to flinch in y/n's direction for safety.
"I told you, hic...! I don't accept this marriage, so that man is not my brother-in-law!" Yuri snapped.
"Yuri, you're being rude." Yor began with a frown as y/n buried her face in her hands again, "And you're making y/n uncomfortable! Kilian too!"
'I've been uncomfortable since we got here.' he thought as y/n rested her hand on his head.
"You're right about me, Loi-Loi, I have an important job and I can afford to buy expensive wine." Yuri continued as y/n watched the drama with a bored look, brushing back her nephew's hair as he dozed off beside her, "It's all because of my sister, I am who I am today because of her!"
Mm?
Yuri now had Kilian's attention.
"After our parents died, we couldn't afford to buy text books for school, but despite that... my sister worked herself bloody for my sake."
Kilian blinked blearily, 'Kinda wish I could constantly read minds right now, it'd probably be super useful.'
No. No you don't, Kilian.
"So I made up my mind... I decided I'd protect her!" Yuri declared, "So I could protect the only family that I had! How could you possibly understand how it feels to have the most important person in your world torn away from you by some random stranger?!"
The room was dead silent.
"Oh boy, aren't you one to talk." Kilian comments with a blank look, clinging onto y/n's arm with a frown.
"Put a lid on it, that's different!" Yuri complained.
"You're a delusional nut job!" Kilian retorted.
Loid deadpanned, 'Are they seriously fighting???'
"Yor, I've always wanted you to meet and marry someone who would make you happy! Just like how I married y/n! But that person you choose to marry must be more capable of protecting you than I am!" Yuri continued before whipping around and pointing to Loid, "Are you capable of that, Loi-Loi?!"
Kilian glanced at Loid, 'What will the spy say?'
"I assure you, I love your sister every bit as much as you do. And my daughter also loves and cares for her very much." Loid declared and Kilian choked, "She's a very important part of my family. Whether it's from knives, bullets, or a nuclear bomb... I will stop at nothing to shield her from harm!"
Kilian deadpanned, 'What a shameless liar.'
Y/n was spacing out, 'Ah, nuclear bomb, maybe I should've sent Edith out to sea and had a nuclear bomb strike her ship.'
Yuri was in complete shock, 'A nuclear bomb?! I'm confident in my abilities to protect Yor from knives or bullets, but a NUCLEAR BOMB?! IS THIS MAN REALLY THAT CAPABLE?! BUT HOW???'
"Y-You're lying! You're a liar who will tell lying lies! I know because of your stupid liar face!" Yuri protested, bumping into the table and knocking over a glass.
'For once, I agree.' Kilian thought irritably, 'I just wanna go home already, I'm sick of all this.'
"Oh! Yuri, be careful!" Yor protested as she rushed to clean up the spilled water from the fallen glass.
"It's alright Yor, I'll clean it up." Loid told the woman with a smile as he also reached to clean it up.
Their hands just barely brushed and both of their faces went red before they jerked away from one another.
Yuri didn't miss that.
"Hold up, you guys have been married for a year and that's how you react when your hands touch? Seriously?" the ebony haired man mumbled, eyes narrowed.
"W-What are you talking about? We're super in love!"
"Yes! O-Of course!"
Y/n tilted her head as Yor and Loid both held a picture of the two of them, smiling brightly and all.
'Now that I think about it, it's a little odd... but then again...' y/n chuckled, "Leave them be, Yuri. Remember, you were too shy to even walk in the same hall as me during after our wedding!"
"That's different!!!" Yuri whined, "Something isn't right here, if you two are in love, prove it!"
"I mean... you can see our marriage certificate." Loid offered but Yuri wasn't gonna accept that.
"No! Not that!" he snapped before pointing at them, "Kiss each other. Right here and now."
Kilian gasped and y/n covered the little boy's eyes with a. Sharp, "Yuri! You're taking it too far!"
Kilian was shocked by Yuri's BALLS to ask such a thing, especially since Kilian had been sure to give them a good kick the last time they played soccer, but he was actually kinda curious.
He watched Loid's expression, catching the brief look of pure shock before the man composed himself and replied, "If that's all, alright then."
"WHAT?!" Yor gasped, face red.
"It'll be just like normal, like how we kiss every day." Loid assured the woman and Kilian gave him a skeptical look.
Kilian didn't need telepathy to tell that Yor's mind was going a mile a minute as Loid leaned towards her only for her to jerk away with a, "H-HOLD ON A SECOND!"
Y/n and Kilian gawked as this woman took the wine bottle, downed what was left of it, and got instantly drunk.
"Ohkay... lets do thith..." Yor drawled.
The couple started whispering something to one another, to whcih Yuri shouted a, "Hey! What's all the whispering about? If you're a real couple, price it already!"
Before Kilian could insult him, or y/n could try to convince him to quit being a pain, a fork flew right past Yuri's face and cut his cheek before wedging itself into the wall.
It was Yor who threw it.
"Shut it, Yuri!" Yor snapped, "We're abouth teh show you the depth of our love!"
Y/n instinctively covered Kilian's eyes with one hand, covering her own with the other when Yor pushed Loid down on the couch. Kilian, curious and all, peeked around y/n's hand with grey eyes.
No way.
No way they'd actually do it!
"St.. STOP! STOP, YOR, PLEASEEE!!!" Yuri wailed as he darted towards where the couple was about to start smoochin', "I CAN'T BEAR TO SEE YOU KISS ANOTHER MAN IN MY PRESENCE!!!"
Kilian felt a twinge of fury, 'What? This bastard-!'
He moved out his foot, causing Yuri to trip and fall right into Yor's oncoming hand as the woman shouted, "THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING!!!!"
Yuri got slapped.
He was airborne for at least five seconds.
He spun as he flew across the room and hit the wall.
Everything shook when he struck.
"Oh..! Yuri!" y/n shouted, hopping to her feet to go and check on her husband, Kilian sitting up as well.
Damn, he got smacked so hard that there was a whole dust cloud in the corner of the goddamn living room.
"Oh no...! Yuri, are you okay?" Yor cried.
Yuri emerged from the dust with that intense look of his, bleeding from the damn head and everything. He was swaying lightly and ACTUALLY BEGAN SHEDDING TEARS.
"I get it now, Yor." he murmured, tears gathering in his eyes, "That reaction to me stopping your kiss... I get how eager you are to smear your lips all over that creep!"
Kilian blinked, 'The only creep here is you. I think he should sleep on the couch tonight, or better yet, outside.'
"Oh boy... I think it's about time we head home..." y/n sighed as she wandered over to Yuri and helped him stand upright as he began to sob, "I'm terribly sorry for all the trouble he's caused."
"It's alright." Loid assured y/n with an awkward smile, "You should probably take him to a hospital, through. He's bleeding quite a lot."
"For now, Loid Forger, my sister's lips belong to you!" Yuri declared as Kilian hurried off to retrieve his shoes along with his aunt's.
"What?!" Yor squeaked before violently slapping her brother with a, "DON'T SAY EMBARRASSING STUFF LIKE THAT!!!"
Y/n gasped as her husband literally fumbled into a table and some chairs, "HOLY 💩—— I MEAN CRAP!"
Yuri got right back up and glowered at Loid, "I'll let you win this round, Loid, but just remember...!"
"Yuri, you're bleeding from the head!" y/n cried, "Enough already, we need to get you to a doctor!"
"Are you okay Yuri??? You're swaying!"
"I'm fine, Yor. And you're swaying too!"
Y/n paused to watch the siblings as Yor helped Yuri stand, a warm feeling in her chest. Hehe, how cute.
Ah, but seeing them reminded her of the dark cloud looming over her shoulder. And— goodness, there was so much she needed to do.
'Right, Arron and I will be meeting at 5 on that afternoon. Yuri will be out, and I don't think it'll be safe for Kil to be there with me, but...'
Suddenly, the two siblings tottered and Loid was there to steady them before they could both fall over.
Yuri took one look at him and was already on guard, "What are you grinning for, huh?!"
"Hehe, I was just admiring what wonderful siblings you two are!" Loid hummed, "You've both been through so much together and have supported each other through it all. Yuri, thank you for all you've done to protect your sister. I know it couldn't have been easy."
Kilian wandered back over and offered y/n's shoes to her without a word which she silently accepted.
'Looks like they're getting along. What a relief...' y/n thought, fighting the urge to let out a heavy sigh.
Suddenly, her hand was grabbed by Yuri who had snatched up all his things and announced, "Y/n! We're gonna head home!"
"O-Oh! Well, okay." y/n was a little surprised but found the time to offer the Forgers a sweet smile, "Thank you for having us! And again, I'm sorry about Yuri."
"I'm especially sorry that you have to be treated to him." Kilian told Yor before patting her hand, "Good night."
"Loid Forger! If you so much as make my sister cry a single tear, I'll have you ex— er, uh, you know what I mean!" Yuri shouted as he ushered y/n and Kilian out the door before running off, "JUST REMEMBER THAT!!!"
"Have a safe trip home!" Yor called after him as Kilian ran to catch up with Yuri and y/n took her time walking.

"Will you be alright, Kil?"
"Mhm, I can tuck myself in tonight."
Y/n nodded before kissing the boy on the forehead, "I'm very proud of you, you know that?"
"Hm? Why?" Kilian inquired, "I didn't do anything."
"Well, for one, you didn't bully Yuri too bad. You were actually much nicer than usual!" y/n chimed, "Just try to be a little nicer and respectful from now on, okay?"
Kilian suddenly felt very guilty, "M'kay."
He retreated to his bedroom, shutting the door behind him while y/n returned to Yuri who she'd left sitting on the couch with a glass of water.
She noticed that the cup was still full.
"Yuri, you've gotta drink it all." she sighed as she plopped down beside him and he rested his head on her shoulder, "Come on. Just finish drinking then you can head to bed."
"Mm... don't feel like it."
"I know, you've still gotta drink though."
"Mmrgh..."
"We're not budging until you drink."
Y/n blinked when Yuri curled up into her, resting his head on her lap instead and looking up with half-lidded eyes, "That's alright with me... I can sleep here."
Y/n chuckled, "Aww... that's cute... you still need to drink though. I'm not letting you get alcohol poisoning, and I'm sure as hell not gonna let you choke on your own vomit while you sleep."
"Where the hell did you hear that from?" Yuri mumbled blearily as y/n helped him sit up again.
She retrieved the water before guiding the cup to his lips, gently urging him to drink until he could hold the cup himself.
"You're so pushy." Yuri grumbled.
"Just drink your water." y/n told him before getting up, "I'll go ahead and grab you some crackers to eat."
Yuri vaguely remembered y/n rushing him to the hospital, but couldn't remember much else after that. He was drunk out of his mind, but he felt oddly sober as he watched his wife return with those crackers she promised him.
Her face was clear as she sat back down beside him with a small plate of crackers in her lap, kindness in her warm e/c eyes as she offered him one with a soft, "Here."
Yuri's chest swelled with that familiar soaring feeling, his cheeks warm as he gazed at his wife's face for a long moment.
He... really, really loved her.
"Hm?" y/n's brows raised when her husband leaned in and kissed her, finding herself laughing lightly when he completely missed her lips and ended up kissing her over the eye instead, "Hehe, feeling affectionate now are we?"
"Can't you just hold me?" Yuri sighed heavily as he leaned into y/n's embrace, "I'm tired as hell..."
"Afterwards. I promise. Just try to eat a little then we can settle down for bed." y/n assured him.
"Haa... fine."
Before Yuri could begrudgingly take the cracker, y/n went a head and gave him a shy little kiss on the lips.
She pulled away just enough to whisper a soft, "Thank you, Yuri."
The man processed his wife's words for a moment before nodding once with a, "Not sure why you're thanking me, but you're welcome anyways. I love you."
"Hehe, I love you too." y/n chuckled before offering the plate to him again, "Go ahead and eat, I wanna make sure you're 100% okay!"
