As far as he remembers, it always had been Yuu and him. From the day they met each other when they were still children until now. Even though they had a rocky start to even get along with each other, he can't complain at all. Because Yuu and him are friends. Therefore it's all right to act a bit like a spoiled kid. Because it was told, the two of them are unique. Even though blessed with Immortality, he had been the one to discover the hidden weapon within his own soul first. From an instant he knew what they are and how to call his weapon forged out of a very fine and shiny material know as Innocence.

Thanks to his Mentor Ares he quickly developed a fine handling wielding his Kusarigama in battle as well as how to disguise himself in situations needed to do so in the first place. Yuu seems to head frequently into the dimension humans are at home while he's been there not as often as his friend. But if he does and he's in a very good mood, he takes on the disguise of an attractive young woman in her early twenties. Otherwise he'd run around in worn out jeans, a multi colored T-shirt and some sneakers with a knitted hat to cover his shoulder-long bluish hair, that actually has some violet tint to it. Actually in a way he kind of envies how long Yuus hair got in comparison to his own.

But he loves everything about the silent man he can call his friend. Most of the time he spends watching Yuu train his skills with Mugen. There is nothing more fascinating for him than to watch in awe his best friend dance with such an elegance with the sharp blade in his hands through the rows of bamboo in their garden. There is for sure no one deadlier and beautiful in his eyes than Kanda Yuu. At least a part within him knows, there is no reason for worry at all. Whatever the situation, Yuu will be for sure there and cover his back.

Lately he found himself thinking almost the entire day about staying with Yuu like this within a serious relationship. Actually, he has no clue where this idea originates from, but something inside of him wishes their friendship would finally transform into something more genuine. Laying on his back at the big patio while gazing into the star-light sky a smile rest on his lips while a trusted muzzle prods his shoulder. From the day, their Innocence had awoken, both Yuu and he were sent out to journey through the different dimensions in order to find their soul companions. His own are the eagle and the coyote. Two companions he can rely on and he loves as much as he loves Kanda Yuu. "Alma, you take things too lightly" is the coyote now saying to him as he raises now his hand in order to pet the fur of his soul companion and the smile grows on his lips.

He may be naïve and kind, but he's proven himself in many situations to be stubborn, clingy and defiant. "As long as Yuu is with me, everything is fine" is his response right now as he raises himself now and his gaze is now fixed at the eagle landing on his shoulder. "Don't take his presence for granted, Alma. Everyone walks different paths. Even the ones to clad themselves in utter silence" are the wise words now coming from the eagle and a short sigh escapes his lips. A part of him knows they are true, but the other part within him keeps on denying the fact, Yuu might one day take a path leading the swordsman away from him. "I know, but still…" is he starting the sentence as he looks at both the eagle and the coyote. 'Still, I just can't let go of him' is the thought swirling in his mind right now and he decides to get up right now.

Actually he knows his soul companions only care for his well-being. He appreciates their worry about him very much. But there is something he can't ignore at all. The way he is drawn towards his best friend in such a magical way, he isn't able to describe into simple words. There are these moments, where he starts to blush only by seeing Yuu shirtless out there at the patio meditating or walking through the house. A certain warmth floods through his entire body when he lays right next to him gazing at the stars or sharing a bed together, because he is again not capable to fall asleep on his own. The longing to be kissed and touched by the dark-haired swordsman is steadily growing within his chest, that he has no other explanation to it than that he'd fallen in love with his best friend.

But obviously Yuu doesn't seem to be showing the slightest interest of their friendship to step up a notch. Most of the time the swordsman takes off and he only sees him return, when everything is clad into the dark colors of the night. Constantly he asks himself, where Yuu is going and why the dark-haired man always insist on being alone. Thoughts of the swordsman being off to meet secretly someone are kind of poisoning his mind to an extent that he started to ask Yuu every time he returns who the dark-haired man was seeing behind his back. Alone the thought of someone else laying claim on this attractive man is a catastrophe for him. Therefore he needs to figure out quickly how to secure the dark-haired swordsman for himself before anyone else is able to do so first.

"Yuu, you're finally back" is he saying joyful right now as he notices the portal to appear near the patio and he runs towards his friend to hug him. But he immediately stops as he sees the red-haired young man behind Yuu to appear as well. For a moment he's quite shocked. There is something outgoing from this man that is so familiar to him. Confused as he is, he stares now at Yuu, who is right now passing him, feeling the hand of the swordsman rest shortly on his shoulder. "I need to inform them. Take care of him in the meantime, Alma" is all he hears now from Yuu, still looking at him as the dark-haired man walks now inside the house. Deep inside Alma quickly knows who Yuu means with them.
'He's going to inform our mentors about the presence of one more like us' is he thinking right now while his gaze turns now to the red-haired man in front of him. "Follow me, you look quite beat up" is he only saying right now and with a short nod the other one follows him now inside the house. There is one part within this huge house, he always wonders how Yuu came up with the name but he has to agree it fits perfectly. The so called Room of Healing. It is a simple white marbled room with a spring in the middle. This water heals any wound within minutes. Even broken bones and internal injuries if you take a little sip of the water.
"Go undress and stay in the water for a while" are the next words he directs at the red-head as they reach now the Room of Healing. While the other one is tending his wounds, he goes in search of fitting clothing for the red-haired man. The thing is most of them would be kind of too small since they only fit Yuu or him. But at least he's so lucky to find some oversized pants and shirt and returns including some towels to the Room of Healing. There he lays them near a small table and faces the door while waiting for Yuu to tell him more about the red-haired man. Even if he closes his eyes, he still feels surrounded by the same presence as if he would be constantly around Yuu.

"Thanks. What is this water? It is really amazing"
"It comes from a spring and heals all kind of injuries"
"So, your name is Alma?"

is he picking up the question right now as he slowly turns around and sees him dressed in the clothing he had been able to find for him. He nods in response and decides right now to show him the entire house, since the other one will be living from today on with Yuu and him.

"Do you have a name?"
"I was – last time I checked – called Lavi"
"Then it be all right to call you this?
"Yeah. Lavi sounds fine to me"

is the red-head now answering with a bright smile while he's for a moment uncertain about Lavi.
Maybe he is assuming things, but why is the other one talking as if he has no real identity? 'Hopefully Yuu knows more' is he thinking right now while showing Lavi now around and explaining him the areas he isn't allowed to enter at all. There are actually three within this house: the garden, since it is Yuus jurisdiction, Yuus living space and his own living space. Leading Lavi now in the area of the house being unused until now, he explains him that this will be from today on Lavis living space.

"So, how did you bump into Yuu?"
"Yuu?"
"Kanda Yuu, the dark-haired man who brought you here. He's like me, an Immortal"

is he explaining right to Lavi, rolls his eyes and looks kind off annoyed at him. Asking the red-head might help him to figure out more about the reason why Yuu is constantly heading into the dimension of the humans.

"It might sound crazy, but Yuu-chan offered me this chance to change my perspective of life"
"Wait, what?"
"If he hadn't been there I might have tried to kill myself"

are the words now coming from Lavi and with big eyes he stares now at him. But before he's able to say something Yuu appears with a scowl on his face.

"The old man isn't very happy about this outcome, but he can stay. Our task for now is to simply observe that Baka-Usagi"
"I have a name too, you know?"

is the red-head now responding with a pout and he shortly shakes with slight amusement his head. For now he will accept Lavis presence for a while. But not, if the red-haired man turns out to show some interest on his precious Yuu.
