Hahaa... W-Well. I'm a masochist, right? S, so... My opinion of a poison would be skewed..? [this is a terrible thing to joke about when maomao exists in your social circle.]

[dereban]

Honestly, if you were any worse you would have eaten one of the other chocolates now, too.

[spacialeyes]

Fuck, that's right. I got you a whole box of these.

[...]

I-I mean. That's right. I'm sorry.

[dereban]

You can curse all you want, I really don't give a damn.

[spacialeyes]

Ah... 'kay.

I really owe you proper chocolate now, huh..? I-I thought... if we weren't- Mmm. Homemade would be rude of me...

[dereban]

Ah, actually... hold a second. Wait here for a bit.

[ She gets up and heads to the kitchen to grab something before coming back with a small bag. ]

Here. I was planning on just giving this to you tomorrow, but- you probably need something normal right now.

[spacialeyes]

Hmm? You were going to see me tomorrow? But it's Valentines Day?

[and they were just friends 30 minutes ago.]

[dereban]

I was just going to give you this girichoco that I made and leave. That's all.

[spacialeyes]

Ah... W-Well. You could always stay..? And eat some with me...

Are all of the ones that I gave you poisoned?

[dereban]

I didn't want to be a bother; I thought you'd have plans with your other partners tomorrow.

[ Which is why she just wanted to come and go. ]

Looks like all of these have effects on them, but they're different depending on which one.

[spacialeyes]

I've been so busy finding presents that I forgot to make any plans.

[He's also generally unsure of how this holiday works without his mother. Context is important.]

Should... I eat another? I wonder if they stack in effectiveness. [now is not a time to live by the scientific method.]

[dereban]

If you eat the same one, maybe. The other ones have different effects.

[spacialeyes]

I was mostly joking... If I stacked them, I might be embarrassing when I hear your voice.

[Cautiously, Yuuto leans closer.]

Sitting like this is already so much. Listening to your voice is nice even without chocolate.

[dereban]

"Mostly"... now I kind of want to see.

[spacialeyes]

[He realizes that he walked into that one. And it isn’t like he’s opposed. Though he does look somewhat shy for the seconds he spends wondering how he would react to her whispers after two chocolates. Will even her speaking voice set his heart racing?

This is a terrible time to be curious.]

… Okay. I-I can try… If um. [His power reaches for the box to bring it closer.] You’ll be the only voice I hear..?

[dereban]

That's fine with me. It wasn't as if I had anything else to do today.

[spacialeyes]

["Why is he like this?" Yuuto takes the lid off of the box and picks what looks like the same chocolate as before. He pops it in his mouth without enough thought and swallows. Already, he feels warm. He really trusts Inaba not just to make sure that he's safe, but to make him feel amazing.

He makes a mental note that he wants to return the favor. Maybe when a simple whisper isn't enough to make his heart melt.]

... Despite what it says on the box, they still taste normal.

[dereban]

They're some weird magic chocolates, after all. They wouldn't really taste any different. Do you feel any different, though?

[spacialeyes]

[It's probably a placebo effective, really- But Yuuto thinks that even her speaking voice is affecting him now. He's too in love to think logically and remember he's always liked the way that she talks.

In a moment of trust and honesty, Yuuto nods.]

... Mm. My heart is racing.

[dereban]

[ She keeps herself close before asking: ]

Can I feel it...?

[spacialeyes]

[Hearing her voice makes him tense, then sigh. Mutely at first, he nods. His hand reaches for hers to place on his chest. He's sure that his heart rate is giving him away; Hearing her voice feels amazing. And that's without a whisper.]

Inaba... Whisper something..? To test it..?

[dereban]

Alright.

[ She leans in and whispers in his ear: ]

Does this feel good, Yuuto?

[spacialeyes]

[It surprises him to hear a muffled whimper turn into a restrained moan. Feeling her so close only makes him more aware of how his heart beats faster when she whispers to him. His voice is more breathless than he anticipated when he whispers back.]

Mm. Inaba... It feels amazing. [He tries to hold himself close to her, craving her warmth as much as her voice,] Because it's you.

[dereban]

Eh-

[ Ugh. Now she's getting a bit flustered herself, especially with the closeness being like this. ]

Um... ah- is that so. It's not bothersome, is it?

[spacialeyes]

N-Not at all. It feels nice-! [Yuuto tries to steady himself for her sake; Instinct dictates that he can't feel good, but his fight comes out as a whisper of his own.] How... F-for you, how do I... I want you to feel good too.

But more whispers... aren't bad either... nn.
