[It was a miracle the Proxy siblings didn't find him dead on the outside, chucked in a ditch.
Lighter could put together after knowing them for a while how they made his debts "disappear", but at the time he didn't believe a couple of twelve-year-olds (except they were closer to 16) freed him without expecting something. Sure the receipts proved the debt was gone, but what did they want?
Turns out: Nothing. Not a damn thing. They're just a couple of bleeding hearts who didn't want to see a man suffer like he was.
And Lighter would die for them.
He can't die because he was living for his old mercenary band whose lives were cut short. But he would die for Belle and Wise. "Gege", as he was dubbed, had to keep them safe.
Especially Wise... he loved and adored both of them.
But he loved Wise. Would do anything for him. Wanted to do anything for him.
When Wise came down into the basement, Lighter was in the middle of a workout. A punching bag was suspended in his room that he was just going completely ham on for a while given how much sweat was on him. He was in nothing but a pair of jeans and those dog tags he always had on. The lights were dim as always to be easy on his eyes. Hearing Wise, he stopped hitting the bag and wiped some sweat from his brow.]
The next week? Sounds more like Belle's gonna be on vacation. Heh, but who knows with Miyabi. This might end up as part of her "training", too.
[He was playing coy, he's known Belle had a thing for Miyabi for ages.]
