Itsuki stands still, eyes fixed first on the ocean waves, then towards that sound that he thinks is growing louder the longer he stands here.
He shades a hand over his eyes, all the better to see Buzen, because he will see Buzen, right? And finally starts moving toward that engine sound -- a sound that Itsuki associates solely with Buzen now. It's as much him as his red eyes and dark hair and sweet smile are... and while Itsuki does have a preference... He loves everything Buzen is, and loves everything he likes.]
[it is definitely buzen, because why wouldn't buzen's dream be about racing along a seaside highway right after their nice date? the sound is growing louder still, up until itsuki will see the red hot motorcycle rounding the corner
buzen races on, approaching, with.... a passenger!! who is behind him?? apparently he's confused enough because he will slow as he approaches itsuki. when the motorcycle stops and buzen removes his helmet, he's clearly befuddled - but also amused]
.... I guess this was going to happen at some point!
[given the fact that the person behind him removes their helmet and... it's also itsuki
i just really wanted to see what would happen if i chose this option]
[u know how swords can shift into action mode as soon as they sense even a lick of danger?
that's itsuki. he senses danger in the form of himself. in the way dream Itsuki has his arms locked around Buzen's waist, sitting astride this bike like he belongs there. Which he doesn't. He doesn't!!!! Itsuki has locked onto this intruder and now the kid gloves are coming off. Has he been using kid gloves all this time? He has! Because as jealous and yandere-adjacent Itsuki is, he's somehow kept his composure in front of both Saya and Jae-ha. He was proprietary and aggressive and also passive-aggressive as hell, and yet he hadn't actually attacked -- or done anything absurdly ridiculous. It's not Saya and Jae-ha's fault that he's yandere to his bones? And Itsuki's lived a very long life repressing his real emotions in front of other people.
Other people, that is.
He doesn't see a need to do the same in front of himself?
Which means Itsuki walks right up to his very cute boyfriend sitting astride this sexy red motorcycle,
and then takes a step past to grab a fistful of dream Itsuki's yukata like he's two seconds away from wringing his neck --]
buzen startles a little bit, shocked at itsuki's own violent reaction to himself? hello? he reaches out to where itsuki's wrist is grabbing... himself... and holds onto him before he can just yeet the dream slut into the ocean]
Whoa! Hold on, Suki, settle down.
[he'll actually frown in confusion? he looks over at dream itsuki then, also startled but apparently || this close to 1v1ing himself, and buzen shakes his head. it feels kinda bad to do this but... he'll kiss dream itsuki's cheek before letting him gradually fade away, because this is a dream, and he can do that.
which leaves buzen holding onto what he can only assume is real itsuki, and take his hand in his]
[imagine i shifted the genre of this cute thread into horror and this becomes Us,
There's still a furrow between Itsuki's brows even as dream Itsuki fades away, a tension in his shoulders and in the hand Buzen's holding, though it eases some at his touch.
it's still there though, evident in the way he keeps glaring at where dream Itsuki was, like he's thinking of summoning him back so he can really kick his own ass. the least of what he deserves after KISSING BUZEN? (buzen kissed him)]
...I don't like it. [OBVIOUSLY?] Seeing someone so close to you who isn't me.
[he will accept the gous and roxana but that's his limit, he cannot accept HIMSELF APPARENTLY?]
[LKSDJFLKSDJF ENDS FIRST (second) DATE WITH HORROR I'M LOSING IT
but wow this is a really strong reaction that buzen doesn't understand at all. he tilts his head, confused, but will just go to hold itsuki's hand with both of his.]
I... I guess... that technically wasn't you...
[dream itsuki... but he'll just tug itsuki closer]
He turns his gaze to Buzen. The confusion on Buzen's face lessens some of that sharp, hostile feeling in his chest. He cups Buzen's face in his hands.]
...I won't give you up to anyone. Even if it's dream me.
[ . . . hm. buzen will just let both of his arms circle around itsuki's waist then, encouraging him closer still. he leans in to press their lips together, as if the affection will smooth out the harsh lines on itsuki's face at all]
Don't have to. I'll always pick you, the real you, every time.
but not so angy cat that he can't kiss Buzen back, with maybe a little more fervor than usual, as if he has to stake his claim (soots itsuki). he doesn't even pull back to answer buzen properly, instead he mumbles his reply against buzen's lips,]
I felt this mad when that girl gave you her number, and when you met that guy during the races. ...I just hid it better then.
[buzen leans into the kiss, accepting all the pent up aggression that itsuki was apparently holding onto. his brow furrows with the admittance, and he just kisses his angy lover's cheek]
If it's what you feel, it's not silly.... I just wish I could help ease some of it....
[NO!!!!! but he'll hum thoughtfully before going to just scoop itsuki right up from where he's standing, lifting him into a princess carry so it's easy for buzen to claim a kiss automatically. this still isn't that jealous, it's just
anyway god help him he keeps alluding to banging and it always flies over buzen's head and itsuki never learns his lesson, probably because he's never upset that it does? he just thinks it's cute. just like how buzen scoops him up is cute, even if it is also embarrassing... this position will never not make him flush a little, GOD HELP HIM]
You don't have to pretend to be jealous right now... It's hard when there's no reason to be.
[itsuki continues not to be self aware, he will snuggle against Buzen's neck though,]
[that's something similar, right? so buzen will just let his lips press against itsuki's again, firm and confident, before he goes to place him down on the motorbike. he gets both of them their helmets again, and just takes off down the road!
it's a fast ride, and a scenic one! right along the ocean's cliffside, making it beautiful for them to see as they go zipping through. it's a little while later that they make it to their destination....
which just happens to be the same animal crossing housing that they designed for itsuki at the end of chroma. buzen pulls up with a laugh, and shakes his hair out as he removes his helmet]
[Itsuki immediately feels a doki at Buzen's attempt at being jealous, even if it's not really jealousy and more Buzen being incredibly charming and cute. The idea of a needy Buzen is so incredible that it's giving him ideas, which are fortunately interrupted once they get to their destination. Itsuki follows suit and slides off his helmet, though his eyes, for once, stay riveted on a subject that is not Buzen, and is instead...]
This is...
[!!! he immediately gets off the bike so he can take a closer look at that familiar door, the outside garden...
he's a little gobsmacked at getting to see it again that he fails to say anything else, just stands there and looks at it with big ole eyes]
[he laughs a little bit at that, watching itsuki with fondness and amusement. his reaction brings a smile to buzen's face, doting as he gets off the bike to follow itsuki.]
Is it a good surprise? I guess I was taking a note from Tsuru-san.
[to just come up with something that he thought itsuki would like!!]
[Itsuki says, as he stands on the threshold of this home that he remembers being so surprised to get and so touched to receive. The look on his face as he turns to Buzen is still so full of wonder and he pauses for a moment, as if to gather the right words to express this soft and tender feeling in his chest.
That he's always made so many things for others. That he's never had anyone make anything for him, in real life or in his dreams.]
I didn't think I'd miss it so much. [this house, and] The prism. But seeing it now... It's really nostalgic.
[so much that it hurts a little, but the good kind]
[ah..... buzen's expression softens at that - he doesn't really know if he can exactly feel the same. the prism was a mission to him, like many others, and he's used to landscapes that he doesn't expect to see again. it's buzen's default to assume that his time with humans is limited, and he will never get it back.
itsuki is his exception - the human that he gets to see always, because that's what itsuki wants too.
but if there's still more that itsuki longs for...]
... should we visit it again soon? And see if the other wants to meet us there? Mari-chan, Crow-san... Tay-san, Hot-san and Ro? Whoever you want to see...
[He's grateful for the offer, and it's evident in the way he smiles and leans in to kiss him,]
Like a reunion? I'd like that a lot... Though only if they want to. They're probably busy with their lives too.
[Itsuki had a terribly painful, but also incredibly happy experience there, but he knows that's not universal. Also, just because itsuki became a malewife with no job doesn't mean everyone else did??? But he clearly likes thinking about it,]
Even if no one else can make it... I'd like to visit one more time with you, and Shuu-kun and Yasu-kun -- if they want to tag along.
[but buzen will give itsuki that kiss, and a second one to follow up easily. he laughs a little, soft and endeared. he can't say for sure if kashuu and yams had a really good time at the prism but... at least if it's the four of them, they can still make a fun time out of it, he thinks.]
Next time the three of us don't have any missions then - let's give it a try. I think it'd be fun to go back, too. See if anything's changed.
