Nocwich weekend means one thing above all else: seeing friends from other factions. Not that Wilhelm has a whole lot of those lying around. Most fit comfortably into the category of acquaintance or, having a solid decade on him, occupy some other hard-to-define role. That puts Jesper easily on the top of his list, and not just because kissing is so much nicer in real life than in the Horizon. Though, he definitely considers that when they set plans for the weekend.

This evening, Jesper's talent for coaxing Wilhelm out of his comfort zone brings them to the hot springs. Luckily, the springs aren't too crowded at this hour, and they can find a nook to themselves.

"Shit, that feels good," he sighs as he lowers himself into the water. Contentment lights his expression.
