A little. But that's probably because I don't like seeing people disappointed. And, you know, you're special to me so I really don't like seeing you disappointed with me or something I've done.
[Just going to look up at him; she's probably more disappointed that she made him disappointed than she is why he was originally like that.]
[This one gets returned too, and another one, and another one as well... though she knows if they continue they'll be back where they started too. So she eventually pulls away from him with a light smile on her face.]
All right, all right, I believe you, Pupperou.
[She brushes some of his hair back and lingers on his jaw before brushing over the mark on his neck.]
I can make it up another time. I want to see you smile when you're with me, you know?
[Yes, this is definitely dangerous, but it's just so easy to sink into it. But when she pulls back and touches his mark, there's already a smile there, one that becomes a little more amused at her words.]
I know—and believe me, I do. You're rivaling swords and fighting as the top things that make me smile.
[His grin is more cheeky as he's clearly teasing her.]
Almost better than swords? That's high praise coming from you, Rokurou.
[But in probably a surprise to him, she'll just gather him up to hold on to him, to be as close as she can.]
And it looks you're much happier compared to when you walked through the door with me. So... I think your intention to cheer up worked, even if it meant some rum went down the drain, huh?
Exactly. You might be more dangerous than I initially thought.
[Again said with a bit of a smirk. And her holding onto him is a very pleasant surprise, one that he definitely will not complain about or resist.
Although at the reminder of why he came here to begin with... There's only a slight change of his expression, a small downturn of his lips as he recalls not the rum (which was despairing in its own right) but his brother. So there's a moment where he's silent, thinking back on their little "reunion"...before he just erases it. He doesn't really want to think about him right now of all places, so he just closes his eyes and presses his face against Serah's neck, as if seeking refuge from even that annoying memory. But what he chooses to say instead may throw her off from what he's really thinking about.]
Alas, as much as I hate to remember, the rum did make a noble sacrifice.
[The loss of rum really was pretty bad!]
Although... [And then there's a smirk against her skin.] Did I miss some whip cream?

But I guess I care about your feelings more than my own.

Otherwise, I'm going to feel like I need to cheer you up, and I'm pretty sure we'll be in a vicious cycle of disappointments if that happens.

Stop being right.

Date: 2019-07-28 07:33 am (UTC)...All right.
I tried to resist this entire time, but I can't anymore.
[And before she can really question him, he's pulling her up and kissing her.]
no subject
Date: 2019-07-29 06:14 am (UTC)[Well, question answered. It takes her a minute, but she returns the kiss, but after a moment, pulls away to at least give him a questioning look.]
no subject
Date: 2019-07-29 06:18 am (UTC)If you keep worrying about this, I'll just keep kissing you until you're convinced and forget about it.
[And again he pulls her back in for another kiss.]
