[ Looking at him right now—silver hair in moonlight, light eyes, pale skin and flushed cheeks .... Rokurou can't understand why Xing wouldn't think it suits him. So, slowly, the daemon shakes his head. ]
Really? [ a small, fond smile tugs at the corner of his mouth as he reaches out again, combing his hand through Xing's hair and stopping when he finds an ear, which he rubs between his thumb and index finger. ] I think it might.
[ But he won't beat Xing over the head with embarrassing comments about how beautiful he looks right now, and how he's more alluring than the stars themselves. Those are thoughts Rokurou keeps for himself, just simmering in the low heat of emotion that's so rare for him. No doubt some of Akame's influence, the oni having more emotions in his little finger than Rokurou in his whole body .... but this isn't bad. Despite not missing how intense they could get, this feeling... it's nice. ]
[ rokurou doesn't have to say anything, especially given the way he's looking at six as if he's the most beautiful thing in the world right now. the erune can already guess what the daemon is thinking—the unspoken words are written in his smile, the twinkle in his eyes. it makes it difficult for six to look at him directly because it's so overwhelming.
he's never really been in this position before. to have someone's focus be all on him and nothing else. what is he supposed to do here? is he supposed to say anything? acknowledge it? it'll be easier to push rokurou away, but—
his heart knows that's not what he wants. ]
... Of course you'd say that.
[ his heart is racing once again, but it's all thanks to what he's up to this time around. he shifts his body's position so it's easier to pull rokurou closer to him, enabling easy access for yet another kiss. words are hard to string together when his mind is a mess of emotions so he'll settle for this.
soft and sweet, it's a kiss that lingers. he knows rokurou won't mind. ]
[ It's Rokurou's turn to fluster somewhat. For some reason, he doesn't expect Six to initiate, heart stuttering stupidly when the erune leans in to meet their mouths together. Soft, still quite chaste, and yet heat prickles along the daemon's flesh. Even a light brush of lips like this feels like a lot when all of his nerves are bright, focusing every iota of their attention on Six.
Lingering in that kiss is sweet. A moment of brevity from how everything the past few days has been brutal: a fight with a spirit, zombie youkai, the topsy turvy twist of time ... as much as Rokurou relishes action and battle, this is nice.
Humming, he presses their foreheads together again. ]
[ it's just too bad that the one time six does something to fluster rokurou is the same time he isn't looking directly at the daemon once the kiss breaks off. if anything, his eyes are closed shut, if only because he's nervous what he sees will just make his heart beat even faster. this is such a weird sensation for him, so unused to love and affection that he isn't quite sure how to navigate it, but he's making do somehow.
one way or another, he'll gather up the courage to do what he just did again.
for now, however, he is content to stay close like this, to not move a single inch away from the man who has confused him in more ways than one. at least it's a good thing — for the most part. ]
... Yeah. Let's stay here.
[ with the stars as their backdrop, six finds himself trying to match the rhythm of rokurou's breathing, the same rise and fall of those ribs where the daemon's heart rests. he doesn't know why he started to do it, only that it soothes him, takes away all the tension he might otherwise be experiencing.
