Told you there are a good few reasons I hate keeping them hidden.
And I do! Knew the locations of some old valuables to get me started, and...well, let's just say I have an in with a director who owes me a cut. I'd even say my contributions are the best parts of his films.
[He's about to ask if Dante can even afford fast enough internet for that or if he'll have to find a new ISP for them, when Dante hands him something he can't pass up commenting on. He grins, mischief written into his every feature.]
I think that's a trophy wife...though, you could still stand to take better care of yourself. And maybe either ditch the scruff or commit to the goatee, it kinda makes you look like a hobo.
Learning to cook would be a good start, though. Can't rely on me all the time.
[ A few minutes pass. Then a few more. It's taking longer than Dante thought! He's in the bathroom, trying to make himself look less like a hobo and more presentable. But it's taking longer than planned. ]
[After a few more than a few minutes pass, Alastor gets up and follows. It's not hard to find where Dante is, the scent trail is fresh enough and doesn't cross with Vergil's. So he ends up at the door to the bathroom, leaning against the doorframe with his tail curling around beside his legs.]
Just a bit. [ Dante looks a little frustrated. He doesn't remember it being this difficult when he was younger, and kept up more with it. He glances at Alastor. ]
What, really? [ Dante blinks. He should have guessed that, but somehow, he didn't. ] Guess that's lucky. You can cut yourself awful easy with these things.

[ A thought occurs to Dante then, and a strange look crossed his face. ]
You realize if you start paying for stuff I need, that makes you my sugar daddy?

[He kisses Dante's cheek, then ruffles his hair.]
I'll check and see if any of them are running nearby. Though...I'll have to look into rentals for my debut.

[ Dante then has a thought and looks like he doesn't know what to do with it. ]
Wait... If I'm being provided for, and doing all the chores... Does that make me the housewife?
no subject
Sounds like it to me.

[ Oh well, at least he's not making comments about himself ending up pregnant. ]
I'll have to learn to cook!

Sure, but I'm not sure those are the standards I'd want to aim for.
no subject
Wait a few minutes! I've got an idea!
[ Pauses, looks back. ]
Seriously, don't move.

Out of practice shaving, huh?
no subject
...care to help? You are a master of blades.
no subject
It's true, but I've never had to shave before. Perks of being decent at shapeshifting.

[ He winces as he proceeds to manage to do so. ]

[Dante, you didn't even wince when he literally carved your back open. He shakes his head and walks over.]
But maybe being able to see what I'm doing directly will make up for inexperience.

Try to hold still. I've got a steady hand, but let's not make it hard on me.
no subject
I'll hold real still, if you give me a kiss first. Or is that reward for later?

[ Dante settles to be sitting on the counter. ]
Okay, ready to not move.
