[mikazuki waves good morning to the staff. it's hard to say if he doesn't notice or simply doesn't care. or if he.... hasn't connected the dots it's fine]
Ha ha ha, it takes a remarkable amount of patience to endure my company, doesn't it?
[ . . . hm. it's a simple statement, but for some reason it lingers. mikazuki munechika is someone who, for better or worse, is accustomed to a certain amount of attention on his person. though that attention normally comes in hand with something that he is accomplishing - whether it be through sheer obedience, or an actual accomplishment. he does not think that many would remain as enthralled with him if they knew him so well that he could disappoint them.
so it is different, to hear that from tsurumaru. a pleasant surprise. they are at the doorway near the front of the manor now, and mikazuki lets his hand reach out then. his fingers brush lightly against tsurumaru's bangs, tucking some hair behind his ear.]
... even so, I will endeavor to spare you any further unfortunate surprises.
[anyway the car is here.
so he'll pull his hand away and let his valet open the passenger seat door for him.]
[ if the touch lasted a few seconds longer he would have began to lean into it
as it is, tsurumaru will simply smile before going over to the driver's side. the valet squints at him suspiciously, which is very fair and valid. but he'll easily slide into the seat and will buckle up. ]
You'll direct me?
[ to the destination.
the atmosphere feels a little charged from the earlier remarks, so he'll ease into something casual. ]
[the dance continues. mikazuki will put on his seatbelt but today he will do that thing where he will keep one of the straps hooked on his thumb slightly away from his chest so that it a ) does not wrinkle his clothes and b ) lowers the chance of him choking when tsuru hits the brakes
he's learning]
Of course, of course. I am very eager for my matcha.

[ he immediately agrees. ]
And it's one of the things I like best about you. You're never boring.
no subject
[well. now. now that's the case, where his limbs couldn't quite bring him to where his whims beckoned.
their youth was full of plenty of meandering paths and spontaneous trips based on sudden ideas.]
Perhaps I merely do not wish to disappoint you.
no subject
[ he can think of one specific disappointment, but it's not really a topic they ever brush upon, especially all of these years later.
but sometimes even getting engaged and married isn't enough to break such an intense tug towards a person. ]

[please remember why you're going]
no subject
[ please don't immediately erase it as well when this is your idea
but as soon as mikazuki is buckled in, tsuru will hit the gas. pause, as he remembers to take it off park, and then does it again.
nyooooooom. ]

Perhaps we can pick up some snacks as well...

Now that I think about it, I saw an advertisement for crepes the other day...

[he hums thoughtfully before nodding]
The flavors would balance nicely.
no subject
[ who wouldn't
but he's reaching the end of the property, and he'll glance at mikazuki expectantly. ]
no subject
[ . . . hmmmm, he's trying to remember]
Ah yes, a right at the bridge.
[this is so unreliable sounding]
no subject

slam that gas and go that way ]
I have a question.
no subject
Please do ask it. Now I am curious as well.
