[perspire]

It’ll be fun to learn.

[bloodread]

Who said—[ Ah, suddenly his lips are occupied. He kisses back of course even if he squeezes Bertolt's hand hard for that. ]

[perspire]

[ cuts off tsun with kissing success???

but bertl is glad that akira is kissing back and he’s squeezing back just as hard on his hand ]

[ He pulls away after with a huff. ]

That wasn't a surprise. [ It totally was. ]

[perspire]

I’ll just need to do it again then.

[bloodread]

...what the hell are we doing? [ Soft and a bit incredulous, but not at all unhappy. ]

[perspire]

I don’t know, to be honest. [ being regular-ish teens?? ]

You… make me feel really comfortable. I like this. A lot.

[bloodread]

[ What a concept. ]

That's a first. Pretty sure I make most people uncomfortable in one way or another.

[perspire]

I’m not most people.

[bloodread]

Yeah, I know. That's why I...like you.

So tell me more.

[perspire]

—The graveyard all knew about my feelings for you.

[ Why are we starting here!!! There goes nagako doing her best to hide under them both. ]

What.

[perspire]

They’re nosy and when I got your letters I’d just… react and they really had nothing better to do but just keep asking questions to get me to react.

And then there was the time we played Hot or Not…

[bloodread]

It's none of their business.

[ His penchant for privacy... ]

You played that stupid game too?

[perspire]

I didn’t have much else to do.

[bloodread]

[ He's squeezing Bertolt's hand, he is not judging you he is judging everyone else. ]

Flat was annoying during it, but at least no one tried to ask me to actually play.

[perspire]

[ squeezes back ]

Yeah, I remember watching that.

[bloodread]

[ Oh, he forgot they could see. A delayed moment later: ]

Sumeragi is cute. But I don't like girls.

[perspire]

[ a short huff of laughter ]

I... do. Not as much as I like guys.

[bloodread]

[ A small nod, he accepts that pretty easily. ]

I atttact a lot of girls. Haruki used me for a fake date once. [ Fake, he says ]

[perspire]

[ he's Realized things and he's just going to... not say anything ]

Well, you are a good looking guy.

[bloodread]

[ Fair.

He's grumbling, of course. ]

Though not as tall as you.
