[obedient... also cute... Itsuki moves to walk away, and then he quickly comes back to give buzen a lil cheek smooch]

Everything you do is cute.

[and now it's his turn to wander off to the nearest stall and get some water for his boyfriend, imagine someone hits on buzen right after itsuki kissed him on the cheek]

[hasteful]

[THE FACT THAT HE CAME BACK FOR THIS IS SO FUNNY, buzen makes a little bit of a disbelieving face but it's fine....

anyway yea itsuki wanders off. maybe this is the moment when some girls at a table nearby who missed the cheek kissy finally encouraged their friend to go up and talk to buzen!! she's brave now! good for her!

this is when she'll wander over, trying to think of a topic of conversation - but buzen naturally looks over in her direction and smiles.] Can I help you with something?

[oh no. opportunity. oh no, maybe he was into her too. she blushes near instantly but manages to squeak out, 'C-Can you tell me where you got the taiyaki?' which inspires a quick chat between them where buzen gives her directions and she asks if he'd recommend it!!]

Hmm... Oh - there's still a small sampler one here, do you want to try?

[HE'S SO FRIENDLY THAT'S A GO SIGN, RIGHT, THAT'S TOTALLY IT, SHE SEES HER OPPORTUNITY AND INSTEAD OF ANSWERING HIS QUESTION SHE JUST BLURTS OUT 'I'm Kuroda Sayaka, here's my phone number!'

it's written on a napkin.... she's offering it out to him.......

buzen doesn't know what's going on and reaches to take it...?]

Eh? Ah? Nice to meet you, Saya-san, you can call me Buzen!

[she is suddenly processing the critical hit of 'Saya-san']

[nightchild]

[itsuki pays for his water, thanks the vendor for their service and also for 'the hot tips for going on dates in this area', and then finally heads back to the table where he's hoping buzen still is, maybe he wandered off...

he stops, surprised! because buzen is there but so is someone else? she's talking to him? maybe she's asking him for directions...

and then he sees her hand something to buzen and stare wide-eyed up at him, the perfect picture of a maiden in love, and itsuki immediately realizes the danger he's currently in,]

-- Hey, Buzen. Who's your friend?

[he's smiling, he's the very picture of a perfectly nice man]

[hasteful]

[a perfectly nice man.... buzen looks back over at itsuki and grins easily!]

Welcome back! Suki, this is Saya-san. Saya-san, this is Suki. She was asking me about the taiyaki - what did you think? It was good, right?

[buzen will take a moment to glance down at the number in his hand... he's not sure what he's supposed to do with it.... all the prism phones came preset with contacts help? :)

saya fidgets a little uncertainly but also has the courage to say 'I-I want to know more about things that you like, B-Buzen-san...!']

Hm? Me? Mm, running and helping people out, I guess... Sweet things...?

[nightchild]

[perfectly nice itsuki continues to stand here as his perfectly nice smile gets more and more stiff.

he follows the line of sweet sayaka's gaze to buzen, how it looks like he's the only one who exists in front of her. he can understand that feeling very well. he's felt that himself? his upper body twists, as the urge to block her line of sight takes hold of him for a single, powerful moment. it would be easy. all he'd have to do is take one step closer, place his hands on either side of buzen's face, and kiss him long and hard enough so she'll get the message.

the desire to is powerful that he grabs hold of buzen's hand the same time he grabs the back of the chair, the latter an attempt to ground himself.

he wants to do it so bad.... but it would be a supremely dick move to pull in front of a nice girl like sayaka, who probably has no idea she's homewrecking? itsuki is of the belief that you should always let a cute girl down... easy....!]

Right -- speaking of sweet things... I heard that you can get a couple's discount from the ice cream stall over there.

[itsuki just. casually takes the napkin in buzen's hand as he talks. the hilarious thing is that itsuki doesn't know what a number on a napkin actually means either, he just instinctively knows that he doesn't want buzen to keep anything from a stranger who's so clearly into him.]

Wanna go? We can show them these if they need proof.

[he brings up their interlocked hands, and manages to avoid shooting sweet sayaka a triumphant look. he manages it, but barely]

[hasteful]

[oh no more napkin

buzen continues to just ? to himself but, well. it sounds like they have their next date stop decided! so he just laughs and nods along, going to pick up the boba cup.]

Let's clean up here then, Suki?

[they can toss the taiyaki and takoyaki containers... but buzen will just offer sayaka a friendly, clueless smile]

Sorry Saya-san, we've gotta get going. Date rules are that I can only pay attention to Suki for most of the time, or something like that. Have a good day! Enjoy your taiyaki!

[there is a zero percent chance of sayaka having a good day as the cold realization that the hot guy she gave her number to a ) is very taken and b ) did not understand any of her advances but she just manages a soft 'O.... Ok....'

like

what else can you say in this situation, help]

[nightchild]

[as expected, the final blow is buzen's...

itsuki smothers his instinct of 'immediately comfort a girl when she gets rejected' and focuses on cleaning up instead. he puts sayaka's napkin in his pocket because he doesn't want to throw it out in front of her, even though everyone (besides buzen) at this table knows that he's gonna do that later anyway.

once they're some distance away and closer to the ice cream stall he just. sighs]

Hah... [he sighs....] Now I feel bad.

[explain why to ur 8 int boyfriend itsuki]

[hasteful]

[??!?!?!???!?!???!???

WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TOTALLY UNEXPECTED TURN IN THE MOOD AFTER A PERFECTLY FINE AND NICE CONVERSATION!!!!!!

buzen pauses at that, straight up just stops walking as he turns 100% of his attention to itsuki]

Eh? Why? What happened?

[nightchild]

[itsuki gazes back at buzen.... and thinks about how lucky he is that buzen actually likes him, and that their relationship is cute and not 'buzen readily agrees to be itsuki's boyfriend because friendship without knowing what it actually means'

he'll just come out and say it]

It must have taken her a lot of courage to hit on you.

[hasteful]

[WHAT]

She was hitting on me? But she didn't even bite?

[nightchild]

Wait, why is that...

[please hold as it dawns on itsuki that he did this...]

Well.



Biting's not the only thing you can do. There are a lot of different ways...

[HE REALLY DUG A HOLE FOR HIMSELF HUH. he fishes the napkin back out,]

Like this. What did she say this was when she gave it to you?

[hasteful]

[itsuki did this.... buzen tilts his head...]

She said... 'here's my phone number!' Um, I don't really know what that means? Why would she give this to me....? I thought maybe it was for safekeeping...

[INT 8 INT 8]

[nightchild]

[HE DID THIS!!!




itsuki balls up the napkin and immediately tosses it,]

She wanted you to reach out to her. It's like a way of expressing interest.

[hasteful]

[


buzen watches the napkin get tossed,

and he just laughs a little even as he lets both his arms slip around itsuki's waist, pulling him closer in front of god and everyone]

Hmm... Maybe I should've thanked her, then.

Even if I would've had to say sorry, after.

[nightchild]

[IMMEDIATELY]

You don't have to. You can just say sorry right away.

[ITSUKI DON'T TEACH BUZEN TO BE MEAN???

but he can't help it... he drapes his arms around buzen's neck and tries not to look too emotionally pouty]

[hasteful]

[that makes him laugh. help.

it's something roxana would also say but this is now date time and buzen is learning that it's really all about itsuki... which is why he'll press kisses to itsuki's cheeks, his nose, by his eyes,,,]

It's nice to thank someone for thinking of you. I appreciate it.

[he never expects it, so he always appreciates it]

But I'll always have to say sorry after - very soon after - because I'm already in love with someone.

[nightchild]

[...

Itsuki's eyes flutter closed at the soft feeling of buzen's lips, and he tilts his head up so he can catch his mouth with his,]

And if they ask who that is?

[itsuki really gunning for the i love you even though buzen says it all the time...

well... he can't help that it makes him feel so happy every time he hears it, no matter how many times buzen tells him]

[hasteful]

[kissy... buzen leans into the kiss easily, always prone to giving itsuki whatever he wants. and that's why he can meet the unspoken request just as easily:]

I'll say it's you. I'll say I love Kagami Itsuki, always and forever.

For me, it'll always be you.

[nightchild]

[itsuki asked, knowing what to expect and yet,

his face reddens anyway. the blush fanning across his face and the tips of his ears. they're truly in public right now but to itsuki they might as well be the only two people in the entire city, no the entire world.]

Hearing you say that... it makes me really happy. No, not just from hearing it... but hearing it from you, who I love so much.

No one else in the world can make me happier.

[his soft human heart knows it too, why else would it always beat so fast whenever buzen loves him so, no matter how many days they spend together]

[hasteful]

[cute...... there really is something so sweet about making itsuki blush. buzen's expression softens automatically and he goes right back to pressing quick kisses to those pink cheeks]

Good. I want to be the one that makes you happiest - that's how I want to be selfish.

[it's still an act of service in place of selfishness - but it doesn't change that it is something that buzen boldly wants.

it means something to him, too.]

[nightchild]

[itsuki threads his hand through buzen's, his mouth quirking up in an amused smile.]

I like it when you are. [selfish, even if it's for itsuki's sake. he can't imagine buzen saying the word so easily back when they first met.

they can be selfish together, can't they? itsuki thinks they can. selfish for each other. how bad can a word really be, when it's applied to them?



the ice cream stall owner clears their throat. this is like a repeat at the boba stand. they hold out the couple's menu without being asked becaus it's obvious to god and everyone that itsuki and buzen are together???]

[hasteful]

[they really did this in front of the ice cream stall bc itsuki got jealous and then felt guilty over his own jealousy,

but buzen will still chipperly say:] Thanks so much!

[and then take the menu so he can hold it up for them both to look through....]

Which one do you want, Suki?

[nightchild]

[AND HE'S JUST GONNA GET JEALOUS AGAIN LATER.....

itsuki leans in so he can apparently look at this menu that buzen's holding up, but what he actually does is smooch buzen again because it's very convenient that they have this menu that will block them from sight! wow!

please pick ur ice cream flavor itsuki]

[hasteful]

[help

buzen will give itsuki this kiss, because of course he does, even following up with a second one.....

but when he eventually pulls away - ]

I don't think that's on the menu?

[nightchild]

[itsuki like 'that's always on the menu' but then he has to explain vore to buzen --]

You're sweet enough to be. [i'm shaking, anyway

he finally looks at the menu so he can stop holding up the line, he points...]

What about this one? Umeboshi...?

[umeboshi ice cream...... it reminds him of buzen u_u he's just really gay]
