*When Kalluto feels Alluka's arms around him, there's a flash of primal terror. The warmth of the last half hour or so, and of the last few days with Killua too, can't dampen his reaction to the touch, which somehow felt like two presences. It's a reaction which only Killua notices as Alluka and Kalluto's chins are on each other's shoulders, their heights well matched.

He tilts his gaze downwards, trying to lose himself in that warmth again. Kalluto knew he'd have to ask Killua how he can forget what Alluka and the other Alluka are capable of doing. How he can relax at all.*

I'm where I need to be right now, *he says to the both of them.*
