His smile was soft at the mention that Gaara would hold him to that. His hand gently tightened on the other redhead's, "I wouldn't expect anything different."

As for Guy's words, Luke could only glance to the side, finger reaching to scratch at the side of his face. The hint of color on his face darkened the more Gaara talked, though. It was after hearing the part about their hearts, however, Luke wished he wore something with a hood...so he could slowly pull it down over his face.

Though, on the same note, he wasn't surprised...which might have been obvious. Awkwardly shifting in his stance, the building over yonder seemed to be the most interesting thing in all of Crystallis. Honestly, Luke might have matured since his travels, but nothing could have prepared him to have his best friend and boyfriend meeting after that much time.

lol~

Smooth, Gaara. Though the tone was no different than someone talking about the weather, the commentary about hearts would have been enough to send a few girls swooning-- it was enough to earn an amused chuckle from Guy.

"Well enough, I suppose," he replied, glancing over at the building as well. "This is my first time out of the city...Guess we just had some bad timing for a scavenger hunt."

He grinned. "Jobs and crystals aside, it's not that different from home."

Had that happened, Gaara would draw the assumption that they fell ill, somehow. He usually spoke in earnest, and found out after the fact, that there was something he shouldn't have said. By Guy's reaction, it didn't seem like he had done wrong. And if he saw Luke blushing, well. It wasn't exactly an uncommon sight, by this point.

Though... what in the world was Luke's fascination with that building? Gaara followed their shift in gazes, frowning with confusion when he realized it looked normal. Maybe it was some kind of secret amusement shared between best friends, that he couldn't comprehend.

"The missions are a common occurrence," he informed Guy helpfully, though most likely, Luke had already told him the same. "Though, losing access to your natural abilities is a difficult adjustment."

More like a serious pain, and an unnecessary inconvenience. The Job Classes had their own unique abilities, but the need for armor, and only being able to equip certain weapons... How restricting.

Gaara nodded with understanding. "You and your comrades saved the world, correct? Essentially, that is what they desire from the foreigners, in this realm."

Luke would totally disagree that the blushing was a...common sight. Gaara didn't make him blush that often, okay (only, deep down, he would know it was...kind of true). Also, he didn't even see the ninja looking over to the building. Otherwise, he might offer a somewhat apologetic look for the confusion.

"Yeah...it really is a difficult adjustment. I was fortunate to get a Job Class that let me use something I was already familiar with, but...It was still strange to get used to. Still..." He nodded to Guy, "You're right that it's a lot like back home. I remember thinking the same thing, at one point."

There was a brief moment, after Gaara asked that last question, that Luke's hand tensed within his boyfriend's. Guy was...from a different time period, but he hadn't had a chance to explain that to the ninja. While keeping his grip firm, he attempted to play it off, "Heh...well, we were certainly...trying to, anyway..."

He really hoped Gaara would get the message...
