When the Pomefiore group begins the descent into Tartarus Vil takes a moment to scold Rook for abandoning the dorm, saying that while he knows that Rook does not usually act like a proper vice housewarden anyway, he cannot overlook how he went out “gallivanting around” when the campus was in chaos.
Vil says, “I’m ashamed of my poor judgment in nominating a vice housewarden so irresponsible he’d abandon his dorm at the drop of a hat,” and Rook acknowledges that he was prepared to be dismissed as vice housewarden the moment he left campus.
After speaking as the Housewarden of Pomefiore Vil then speaks for himself, saying that he had been beside himself with joy upon hearing that Rook and the others had come for him, giving each member of the group a hug and a kiss and promising to return them safely to school.
After Vil loses his youth to the Underworld Rook assures him that he is still “the fairest one of all.” (Vil: “I know. But that’s not the point!”)
Vil visits the school store during New Year’s while Rook is resupplying and Rook appears in the front of the store anyway, saying, “how I so wish I could give your shopping experience my personal touch…”
When Vil is working at the school store instead they fail to overlap, with Rook saying that he came “to burn Vil’s brave figure into (his) mind,” but he would want to disturb him while he is working.
When Rook’s tsum appears at NRC Rook gives him a tour of Pomefiore, leaving a “special place” for last, somewhere where the tsum will be able to gaze upon a special beauty, and lets himself into Vil’s bedroom.
Vil seems pleased by a tsum with a fondness for beauty wanting a long look at his face and even keeping a proper distance while it admires him.
Vil excuses himself for a Film Club Research meeting and Rook responds, “I could bask in your glory ’til the end of time…but I wouldn’t dare delay you.”
Rook later follows his tsum into bushes on campus in order to watch Vil from afar without disturbing him or the rest of the Film Research Club.
Rook does not intend to follow Vil into the entertainment industry in his fourth year, choosing to intern at an archeological research institute, instead.
Vil gives a speech on Founding Day and Grim says that Rook gave him a standing ovation, continuing to clap even after Vil told him that he was overdoing it. (Grim: “And then he threw flowers at Vil’s feet!”)
When the Cloudcalling group decides to take a photo together Vil says that he normally doesn’t do photographs for free, but he concedes as Rook asked him for pictures.
