[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.

[spacialeyes]

I don’t know if you know this… [Yuuto does begin to lean in for a kiss again, pausing with his lips barely touching hers,] But you’re very distracting. I can’t focus on anything but you… My love is soul deep.

If I’m not careful, my power will still… [His voice trails off. He doesn’t want to think about it.]

[dereban]

Am I really...?

[ She doesn't mind being distracting, but: ]

I'm not really doing much right now, though.

[spacialeyes]

Eheh. If I elaborate, I think you might scold me for being sappy.

[Yuuto grins, not yet closing the small remaining distance for a kiss.]

So maybe… Trust me? If that’s permissible..

[dereban]

I probably would, but... I wouldn't be unhappy about it.

[spacialeyes]

Ah… Then. [He closes his eyes while resting his hand over her chest,] I can feel the vibrations of your voice in the air..? And your breathing… Even if you don’t think that you’re doing very much, to me… I find it beautiful? Like music or something..?

[dereban]

Ah-

[ She feels herself fluster a little bit before letting out a huff. ]

Geez. Nobody's said anything like that before...

[spacialeyes]

I suppose not many people can sense it. But I can.

When we're together, I really can't think of anything but you. You're overwhelming just like this, Himeko.

[dereban]

...

[ A rather pitchy noise escapes her, flustered and embarrassed as she glances away. ]

Uuu... you're being embarrassing now.

[spacialeyes]

Ahaha… I told you that you would think I was being sappy… Sorry.

I don’t have to speak anymore?

[dereban]

....I know that much. You can shut up now.

[spacialeyes]

Mm. [With that, Yuuto properly kisses her; His tail only wagging this time. Still embarrassing as hell, but at least her legs are spared this time.]

[dereban]

[ This is why you get compared to a dog, Yuuto...

Nevertheless, Inaba is content to close her eyes and just melt into the kiss, wrapping her arms around him to pull him in closer. ]

[spacialeyes]

[He's just as happy to lean into the embrace, deepening their shared kiss with a smile his lips. It's almost unfair that she can't sense the world as he can and will never know how precious each moment with her can feel. The best that he can do is spoil her warmly.]

[dereban]

[ The warmth is comforting, enough for her to stay like this for a few seconds longer before peeling away from him with a breath. ]

It's warm, like this.
