[Let's keep it short and simple-]

Hey, hey! Guess I'm doing important stuff but if you think your stuff is important too, tell me what it is and we can flip a coin.

See ya!

[beep!]

[ooc: action tags also welcome! seriously just ram into him or he's apartment 7.1]

[aeolian]

Sleeping with you probably didn't hurt my chances.

[uncalled]

Nope! [And he hums pleasantly.] And that goes for both definitions of the word 'sleep'. Just saying.

[aeolian]

You know, we've only technically done one of those.

[ Just saying, partner. She's entertaining herself by stroking his hair now, letting it ease through her fingers. ]

[uncalled]

We have.... [And he's happily leaning into her touch, even as his smile grows a tad bit more devilish.]

Think we should go for two for two?

[aeolian]

... Right now?

[uncalled]

[ . . . . and that makes him sigh.

And flop against the bed.]

Man, I can't tell you how much I want to.

[....but..........]

[aeolian]

But we have roommates.

[ yeah, she knows. Will lazily tracing patterns on whatever bit of skin is closest help? ]

[uncalled]

[Probably not.

But Sakon's just going to nuzzle into her unbranded cheek in response to that touch anyway.]

It's so lame. I never thought it'd be a problem to room with Mitsunari-sama!

.... kinda forgot why I was glad I never had to stay in the same room with him before I got here.

[aeolian]

[ Okay, that thought's making her laugh. ]

I can imagine! You must have enjoyed your privacy quite a bit.

[ There's no sense of discomfort in her chest, nope. ]

[uncalled]

It was convenient.

[He'll... admit that much.... and he's just going to kiss her cheek in response to that.

He's not sure why. He just feels the need to give her a bit of affection.

Is that a partner thing.]

[aeolian]

[ yes, sure. A partner thing.

And that's why Aria looks so bemused. ]

You know, it's not as though I mind.

[uncalled]

[ . . . he didn't even figure out the feeling, Aria, how do you expect him to know the motivation behind it-]

Mind what?

[aeolian]

What you did before-- although it might have just been my imagination. It felt like you were trying to...

[ A pause. ]

Mm, no, never mind.

[uncalled]

Wait, hold on-

Don't stop there. Like I was trying to... what?

[aeolian]

[ SAKON, SHE STOPPED FOR A REASON.

But after a minute, she'll sigh, hand stilling. ]

Like you were trying to comfort me?

[uncalled]

[ . . . ah. He blinks at that, tilting his head faintly. Was he trying to comfort her?

So he hums thoughtfully and like he's not too sure himself-]

Maybe I was....?

[aeolian]

Which would be silly, because that's got nothing to do with me.

[uncalled]

.... so you didn't like it, huh....

[aeolian]

Didn't I just say I didn't mind it?

[ why would she? ]

[uncalled]

I mean the kiss! [He always means the kiss-] Should I... not do that then? When we're talking about what I did back home?

[aeolian]

... Sakon, I'd rather you kiss me because you wanted to, not to try and comfort me. [ with a small smile. ] But I'm not saying I didn't like it, so don't worry.

[uncalled]

[ . . . well.

He's just going to lean in for another kiss then and hum thoughtfully.]

Well, I like kissing you to comfort to you.

That works out, doesn't it?

[aeolian]

A kiss is still a kiss, hm? [ well, she'll go in for another. This is fine, too. ]

[uncalled]

[Another is totally fine.

And when he pulls back from that one, he's grinning pretty openly.]

You bet. And I'll always like kissing you.

[wow amazing, never would've thought that]

[aeolian]

Well. Even when you lose this challenge, I don't think I'd mind a friendly kiss every now and then.
