WELCOME TO A GUNS N ROSES MORE ARGENTI FOCUSED POST
this takes place after my previous post. to recount where i'd left off, Argenti and Boothill discussed their standings. Boothill is upset with Argenti because he seemingly has no room in his heart for anyone except Idrila. and Argenti is slowly beginning to grapple with the fact that his faith may not be the only thing he obsesses over.
After their discussion. boothill left to go complete more bounties, not before dropping the "why did you even make them dates then?" bomb on argenti because as per last post, argenti WAS the one who told boothill that their outings were dates.
He doesn't know why he said that. and now here is a knight of beauty, sitting in his space ship alone.
a knight of beauty's path is a lonesome one. that was something Argenti was content with. but after his constant interaction with the galaxy ranger boothill, their run ins, their conversations, their everything..
Argenti doesn't think he can walk such a lonesome path anymore.
for the following weeks, argenti would be praying to idrila, after all, to follow the path of the beauty, you walk down the road of asceticism. Asceticism is abstinence, avoidance of all indulgence, all temptation. to walk a path avoidant of material desire and pleasure.
but did he really want that presently? no not now. right now his mind was filled with imagery of a certain cowboy.
so prayer is his answer.
he still see's boothill around the one and only while it's docked. his white hair fixed with coal ends always seem to shine. argenti has asked before if his hair was also synthetic, but boothill just laughed at him.
"what, you think I was forking bald? low blow, rosey."
Argenti missed their talks
He missed his laugh.
when there eyes would lock.
when his armored glove would brush the leather of boothills jacket.
when the nights were late, when they'd lay to sleep with boothill resting his head close to argentis collarbone.
he wants it all back and more.
But this is what prayer is for. to lock away these menial desires of this lowly knight of beauty. one of the honourclad, the most renown of the knights, questioning his faith.
Argenti riles up his courage and somehow finds boothill in a pub, asking to talk. He's done his best suppressing his wants and is ready to have a conversation.
boothill says sure, and they head back to the one and only.
Argenti lays out a small portion of what he's been thinking over the couple of days boothill has been gone. specifically that his knightly code is resolute, and he cannot stray from his devotion.
after he says that it gets silent, and extended silence lasting for 10 minutes.
to break the silence, argenti asks boothill to keep travelling with him. since there is no harm helping a dear friend in need.
boothill agree's, although under his eye lies a deeper emotion, argenti unable to put a pin on what it was.
