[BECAUSE HE'S NOT WRONG??? anyway he pulls out a chair for buzen because he has to do at least one boyfriend thing that's not just smooch buzen, and settles on the seat across from him]
Let me know if it's too cold. I'll ask room service to heat it up.
[and he'll apologize to hotel staff because it's his fault that it's COLD]
not like buzen's never put food on his plate before, but he's always done it in a group setting -- with all the other gous and swords and anmitsu, who all receive his attention equally. it feels special when it's just the two of them..... it feels, dare i say, domestic......?]
[it just describes my feelings on potential cold spaghetti marriage proposal]
Mmhm. It's what we call people who just got married. [itsuki will pour buzen a drink in the meantime,] They're still not used to it, but it makes them happy to spend so much time together...
[itsuki if he was still his performative slut self: we could change that kawink
itsuki now that he's in a committed forever romance with buzen, his true love: i... i could change that....]
I don't know it either! [he blurts out, suddenly afraid that buzen would have no problem if he was married to someone else,] But I've always wanted to...
[itsuki was supposedly starving two tags ago, but he's ignoring all signs of physical distress in favor of prioritizing the emotional kind]
buzen tilts his head in the other direction like he's trying to rattle around his last two braincells... he notices itsuki isn't eating so he'll just put food on his spoon and offer it out to him! eat! eat!!!! YOUR GROWLING STOMACH, YOU TWINK]
About getting married?
[???/]
Uh... I guess if you've always wanted to, then yeah! Me too!
[the way he'll associate spaghetti with this disaster for the rest of his life
he opens his mouth and eats it... and this time he chews...]
It's my way of showing you how much I want to be with you. ...We spend a lot of time together, and I've already promised myself to you for the rest of our lives already, but...
I just think it's really nice. To have a day to celebrate us being together. [he picks up his fork and moves the cold noodles around, and finds a meatball instead.... lifts it up for buzen....] And in order to do that, I need to ask you in a way that we'll both remember it forever...
[technically spaghetti dinner proposal is pretty memorable too]
[buzen doesn't really understand, and honestly doesn't have strong feelings either way. marriages really do mostly just feel like ways to tie families together politically, but if itsuki likes them so much... he'll eat that meatball as he thinks, nodding along.
when he's done chewing, he has come to a decision:]
I think that no matter what we do, I'll do my best to remember it forever.
But if you want to ask in a specific way, that's okay, too. I'll wait as long as you want... but I don't think my answer will ever change.
no subject
itsuki's stomach keeps growling....]
The mood was so good...
[the mood aka itsuki's state of horny... he runs his hand through buzen's hair, pat patting]
I... guess we should eat, huh... [forlorn....]
no subject
once he is, he'll hold both of his hands out to itsuki to lift him right up]
We can make the mood good again later?
no subject
he's hungry, but he takes a moment to wrap his arms around buzen's waist and kiss him right on the mouth, soft]
Mm, pick up where we left off.
[like those lessons on jealousy that inevitably turned horny, he takes buzen's hand in his and finally goes over to their DINNER so they can EAT]
no subject
[he's already forgotten the jealousy lessons,
but he will smile against the kiss before walking over to DINNER which is seafood and spaghetti i think. buzen hums happily, looking excited]
This seems like it'll be tasty...
no subject
-- Yeah, that too....
[BECAUSE HE'S NOT WRONG??? anyway he pulls out a chair for buzen because he has to do at least one boyfriend thing that's not just smooch buzen, and settles on the seat across from him]

[and he'll apologize to hotel staff because it's his fault that it's COLD]
no subject
Ah, it should be fine. I'm sure we've had rations that are way colder...
[but he'll go to start eating! or rather, he'll start by putting some of the food on itsuki's plate first....
doting! sharing!]
no subject

Hehe. [HEHE?] Feels like we're newlyweds...

buzen tilts his head as he goes to put food on his own plate now....]
Newlyweds?
no subject
Mmhm. It's what we call people who just got married. [itsuki will pour buzen a drink in the meantime,] They're still not used to it, but it makes them happy to spend so much time together...
[DAMN... MARRIAGE IS THE BEST...]
no subject
You don't think we spend a lot of time together already?
[ASIDE FROM CHORES AND MISSIONS THEY'RE TOGETHER FROM MORNING TO NIGHT but buzen just seems fond anyway.... silly itsuki and his daydreaming....]
But you're right - I guess we're not married, so I don't really know the feeling exactly...
no subject
itsuki now that he's in a committed forever romance with buzen, his true love: i... i could change that....]

What about you, Buzen? Are you curious too...?
no subject

Suki?
[hands him water?]
no subject
takes a couple of deep breathes, in and out... his eyes are all watery because of the choking? maybe?]
I... Not like this...
[MAYBE NOT JUST FROM CHOKING...]
no subject
HE'S ALARMED NOW and will just shift so he can try to brush his thumbs under itsuki's eyes to catch his tears??? HELLO????]
Eh? What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?
no subject
No... I did...
[HE LOOKS AWAY... AT... THE COLD SPAGHETTI...]
If I'd known this would happen, then I would have asked you earlier in the store...
[is proposing marriage to your boyfriend in a jewelry store better than while eating spaghetti]
no subject
... asked me what... If I want to get married?
It's not like my answer would've changed...
[HE'LL JUST
SAY YES IN WHATEVER UNROMANTIC LOCATION]
no subject
But the timing is important... And the atmosphere...
[buries his face in his hands]
...It should have been special, because that's what you deserve...!
[HE HATES HIMSELF SO MUCHHH]
no subject
[
twirls more cold noodles onto a fork and then lifts it to itsuki's mouth]
