Zexion wanted to curse his less than impressive stature as the older man placed one deceivingly delicate hand against the tree trunk beside his head and leaned forward, almost a full head taller than himself. Unable to do much else, he glared.
Marluxia caught and held his gaze, the deep blue intensity of his eyes almost hypnotic.

“ You really want to be on my side rather than against me, Zexion. The strong rule, the weak submit. That is nature’s way.”
The slightest quirk of a smile ghosted over the Assassin’s face as he cupped Zexion’s chin lightly in his gloved hand.
“ And the weak who don’t know when to submit are overrun and destroyed. I’m sure we would all be loath to have that happen.”
--- TPBoD - Renegades, Chapter 003



Marluxia x Zexion is one of those KH pairings I just can't stand.
It's usually either done very badly (Yay! Pretty boys, let's slash 'em and screw up their personailities! 8D) or quite well (IC powerplay plot) in which case my inner Vexen gets insanely jealous.
However, in the TPBoD-context, it'd be impossible not to have their strife for power occasionally lead to lovely confrontations like this. As long as they both know where they really belong, I'm more than fine. X3

One of the Kiriban drawings I did to celebrate that TPBoD has now gained 100 LJ-watchers. Yay, people love us, they really do! ^_^
