Mmm... I thought you said you weren't going to talk anymore?

[ She's just teasing. ]

But - I love you, too.

[spacialeyes]

Ah- [Teasing right back, Yuuto goes quiet. Instead of saying anything more, Yuuto presses close for a kiss.]

[dereban]

[ And she accepts it wholeheartedly as the corners of her lips quirk upwards. She can't be happier than this, really -

Especially as she brings her free hand to the side of his face, her expression warm. ]

[spacialeyes]

[Still determined to be quiet, Yuuto only hums happily as they exchange a kiss. He pauses briefly when he feels her hand on his face, sighs contently, and then leans in for a third kiss. He's oblivious to how his tail brushes against her leg.]

[dereban]

[ Even if he is oblivious, Inaba is not, so there's definitely a surprised noise that escapes her lips and shows in her expression.

It isn't bad, but she sure was caught off guard. ]

[spacialeyes]

[It takes Yuuto a second to figure out what she is reacting to. His eyes trail down to his belt and he sees it snaking around her leg- And he breaks the kiss, consciously willing his belt to go limp again and then grabbing it to move it away.

Small items around them might have just jolted up in the air to match his surprise.]

Sorry..! I got carried away..! Are you okay?

[dereban]

I'm fine, I was just surprise--

[...]

Nothing broke just then, did it?

[spacialeyes]

[Yuuto is so embarrassed and upset that his anxiety begins to take over. He begins to move off of her, intending to get up and look.]

I-I can check! I’m sorry- My soul is just- I’m focused again! Sorry!

[dereban]

It's okay... I mean, it can't be helped, really. It isn't as if I can nullify things anymore.

[spacialeyes]

I still..! [His tail swishes with anxiety.] “Anymore..?” Is there a way that I could turn off my power? I wonder if that would be safe…

[dereban]

Ah... well, when I was at the Foundation I had a nullification ability through touch that I got from a fortune cookie.

[spacialeyes]

So if I get fortune cookies, we can makeout?

[dereban]

It was a special one from that world. And I... don't want to be like that anymore.

[spacialeyes]

I meant for me..? It’s not your job to put up with my… quirks.

[At least he isn’t outright leaving the couch anymore. Yuuto sits down and sighs.]

You don’t have to change.

[dereban]

Ah.

[ That's a huge weight off her back at least. ]

Well, the fortune cookies don't guarantee anything and they can actually kill you if you're unlucky.

[ Spoken casually as if she were talking aboit the weather. ]

[spacialeyes]

[Surprisingly, Yuuto doesn't seem to hear that part. Probably because he's too hopeful.]

But if it worked, then you'd be able to be happier?

[dereban]

Well, it's less "if it works" and more... "if you get the right cookie". But again, those jist aren't things here, I think.

[spacialeyes]

I guess that’s true… Well. It’s fine. I’ll just… Focus more?

[dereban]

...will you be okay doing that?

[spacialeyes]

That’s all that I can do, so… Mm. It’s fine.

[He does lean slightly in her direction, testing her present boundaries.]

I think being with you is worth it..?

[dereban]

...sorry for being so selfish.

[spacialeyes]

I don't see it that way..? I like you as you are, you know?

[Yuuto turns his head to kiss her cheek.]

Actually, I think I'm in love with you.

[dereban]

I...

[ She swallows hard. ]

I love you, too. So... show me more of your love, Yuuto?

[spacialeyes]

Mm… If I get carried away again- [He takes her hand and moves it to his cheek, his smile relaxing and his voice taking a teasing tone;] Pinch me? So I wake up? And know I’m not dreaming.

[dereban]

...Okay. And you do just mean with your powers, right? Getting carried away in... other ways... is fine with me.
