Summary
Some days, Vergil thought he should have let himself fall into Hell.
He had caught Dante’s hand by reflex, against his better judgement, against his pride. But once his brother held on, it had turned impossible to let go. The humiliation of defeat had tightened his chest with every step of their way back to the human world, filling the silence between them, burning away any words they had left. It stayed with Vergil long after he’d vanished, leaving Dante and the scorching memories behind.
None of it compared to the utter hopelessness of watching a three-year-old child throw a tantrum on the floor while wearing pants stained from his diarrhea. And not just any three year old, his.

Some family traditions deserved to be revived. Others needed to be updated.
Dante hadn’t expected the latter to result into Vergil and him standing back to back in the middle of his twin’s living room, standing on one of his sofa, singing Vivo Per Lei at the top of their lungs while Nero watched with wide eyes and Lady died of laughter.
