[New year, new month, new-old form. For Neku, at any rate. Joshua still seems to be stuck in Pooka mode for another month, and that's just fine for him, but the chillness of Neku's own Pooka form the month before had made him think. It might not have been anywhere near the level of his Waldgeist form from back over the summer, but it still carried a similar enough note that he found himself feeling... concerned.
He's never really felt any level of regret for what he did. If it wasn't for the events he set in motion, Neku would still be cold and withdrawn. He never would have grown as he did during his time in the Game. Shibuya wouldn't be the way it is today without Neku. But it isn't about that. It isn't about Neku's time in the Game anymore.
New year, new him, he supposes.
So, whenever the New Year's Day festivities around the house have died down a little, Joshua goes to find his fiance, looping his arms around one of Neku's while keeping the wing membrane in mind.]
