Of course. It was completely out of a sense of responsibility that I did that and not because I wanted to avoid any reprimanding or nagging. Definitely.
Hm? I don't remember saying "Saihara-chan would have nagged at me not to practice my wind powers in the apartment if he saw how many things I knocked over and broke." Just that I was being responsible and that was the only reason I replaced them.
[Who ELSE would have nagged you?! They're the only two people here!]
A-Anyway, it doesn't matter either way. [Snuggling? Snuggling. He's just gonna bury his face in your hair a little, Kokichi, don't mind him. And before the nephilim gets a chance to try and continue the argument, the demon adds, in a small voice:] I think wind powers suit you better, by the way...
[It's a good thing Shuichi decided to say something because Kokichi was sure to try and continue the argument. But what he says about the wind powers has the nephilim pausing for a moment before the demon can feel him shifting a little in an effort to look up at him.
With...out moving away from Shuichi. And therefor leaving the detective's face in his hair, making looking up both impossible and pointless.]
Mmm... [He nods.] The wind is...unpredictable. It can be destructive, but most of the time it's harmless. It can be calm or playful, strong or gentle... it has many sides. And it's...uninhibited. Nobody really controls the wind. You can go inside a building to escape it, but but that doesn't make the wind stop blowing.
[He pulls back a little so that he can meet Kokichi's gaze.]
So I think...you're more like the wind than you are like the lightning.
[He's quiet as he listens, watching his boyfriend with his ears perked slightly, a clear sign he's taking in every word he says. Meeting Shuichi's gaze in return, he's still a little quiet afterwards before he leans forward, nuzzling his face against the demon.]
...y'know, I don't really think I'm unlike the lightning...but I'm glad to know you would compare me more to the wind in the end.
[It's probably no surprise that he'd compare himself more to lightning than wind at this point, but his words are genuinely grateful and heartfelt...even if he may disagree, he's choosing to accept the comparison anyway. He wants to be more like the wind and less like the lightning...]
[Shuichi pulls his head back entirely so that he can lay it down on his pillow and gaze into Kokichi's eyes. A small smile plays around the corners of his lips and his gaze is so full of love it's almost palpable.]
[Hell, thanks to their synchrony, it actually kind of is. It's not tangible, but Kokichi should be able to feel it nevertheless.]
To me, you'll always be a summer breeze...the playful ones that blow through pinwheels and windchimes and utterly fail to make the heat more bearable without the help of a fan.
[He loves you, Kokichi, but you're a little shit.]
[In return, Shuichi can likely feel the way Kokichi's melting under that kind of gaze, soaking it in like it's the last drink of water he'll ever get. He'll never get tired of Shuichi looking at him with any level of affection...and it'll take some time before he stops feeling like it'll be the last time he sees it.
Though those feelings are quickly replaced with a mixture of a bust of love mixed equally with embarrassment as Kokichi ducks his head, cheeks pink and feathers ruffled.]
J-jeez, what lame romance novel did you get that from?
[In spite of his words, it's easy for the demon to feel that he loves it. That he's clearly weak kneed here. Please say more things like that to him.]
[Feel free to bask in it as long as you like, Kokichi. For once, Shuichi isn't shying away from eye contact. It's almost like he never wants to STOP looking.]
Mmmm, not from a novel. I just thought of it. Sometimes I'm capable of being romantic, you know? Not very often, but...sometimes!
[It's more than sometimes. It's just usually not with words, that's the thing.]
[He absolutely wants a kiss, even if that makes his cheeks and the bridge of his nose start to actually glow with his blush now. Gotta love that holy blood.]
W-well...I can't let you know how often you do. It might go to your head! Or totally embarrass you if I suddenly go weak kneed and collapse in public. Besides, I'm the Ultimate Apathy, remember? Nothing fazes me.
[The look of it, anyway. He uh...definitely doesn't love the taste or what it does to him when ingested. Sorry, Kokichi. He loves you but your blood is gross.]
[He leans forward a little and nuzzles Kokichi's nose with his own.]
That's fair. I'd hate to get a big head. Though, at least if you do do weak-kneed in public, I'm strong enough now that I can take you somewhere out of the way so I won't get embarrassed.
I never said I would leave you in an alley. Or leave you anywhere, for that matter. [Clean your earwax, Kokichi!] But say we were in the middle of shopping or a nice day out and we didn't want to go home yet. I'd simply carry you somewhere out of the way and stay with you until your knees recovered and we could continue with our business without either of us getting embarrassed.
[How about another nuzzle? He thinks you could use another nose nuzzle.]
