[ what are you planning.. to take from her.. ]

Haruhi Suzumiya.

[ for a moment she clears her throat, and when she talks - even though it's still obviously her own voice - the tone is a little more like Haruhi's typical tone. ]

'Are you an S-type or what?! I mean I knew Keiichi was into the domineering but girly look and people and personality but-! Syncing this perfect?!'

[ a sigh. ]

Something like that. And only since I said I didn't mind all the things you did for me that day during the experiment.

Why I am not surprised?

[He sighs, Haruhi, really, stop labeling his relationships however you want.]

If you're the S-type... Then what would someone like Bernkastel be? And I'm not into the domineering but girly look or whatever. My only fetish is that I prefer red-heads.

[The redder the hair the better, like with Ange.]

I tried to tell her I'm not the S-type at all. You don't think I am, right? [ a little awkward, considering she never really wanted to leave that kind of impression on him..

besides, why are fetishes being discussed either way - that last mention is enough to get Ange a little embarassed again, since she.. understands what that means, with her hair color.. but she tries to hide it, for the most part. ]

I guess I'm in luck then though.

[He takes a sip from the cocoa after blowing at it again, thinking about that before he smiles apologetically at her.]

Sorry, Ange. I don't think I really care if you're the S-type or whatever type. Whatever type I can imagine, if it's you being so I like it just as much as the next one. Guess I'm too biased into liking you however you are.

[Yup, she hit him hard, though it doesn't surprise him, he had that suspicion since a while. How or when it happened, that he ended being so head over heels for her, he's not sure, but he's not complaining. At least now that she's his girlfriend he can admit it openly without getting nervous, because what boyfriend doesn't love his girlfriend?]

Nah, I'm the one in luck with that. It makes you even more perfect. And probably I would have still ended as I am whatever your hair color was, it's not as if I'm actively thinking about that part of your body the whole time. That would be your eyes.

[N ow he's mostly pondering out-loud to himself, don't mind him .]

[ There's a sound coming from Ange that very much sounds like a surprised and very much embarassed sputter, and she actually turns to her drink for a distraction too - the problem is that she doesn't seem to have much of a problem with how hot it is, just gulping down part of it quickly. See, now it isn't that weird that her face is red, clearly, anyone's face would be red after drinking that much of a warm drink, clearly.

So it doesn't seem too much that she's blushing because he's so overly embarassing with how nice he is, saying that he would like her just for being her no matter what, and well.. the same probably counts in return, but the problem is that there's no way she could ever say something that embarassing so carelessly the way he does. ]

You.. sure like to run your mouth. [ But it doesn't sound angry or annoyed in the slightest, more like she's still too busy being smothered by the words - the blush doesn't fade in the slightest. ]

[Well... While she's busy trying to hide the blush and such he will casually slide a bit closer to her. Don't mind him, or the proud smile that he tries to hide by drinking. He sure had a good idea bringing up something to drink, otherwise things would have been awkward and hard to disguise.]

I do, specially when I'm being honest and saying the truth.

You'll catch people off guard if you keep being so honest and long about it.

[ You're one to talk when you do the same with your bluntness to a lot of other people, Ange, even if it's not quite in the romance category. She does notice him sliding closer like that, though, and her deadpan and embarassment becomes a bit softer. ]

... Thanks, though. I didn't think anyone would ever say something like that about me, so.. I'm glad. Especially since it's you.

Edited 2012-01-07 21:36 (UTC)

I bet many guys would say that... They better not do so now, though, I don't like to share.

[Mumble, mumble. Maybe he should consider doing a proper claim over their relationship to the whole village?]

And catching people off guard is sometimes the best way to get what you want. When people are on guard, no matter what you say or how much reason you have, they will fight back out of mere instinct. It's hard to admit that you're wrong about things, or learn new things, when you're adamant about them.

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure none of the other guys I know ever would.

[ like Minato or Touma or Atsuro or any of the others, pfft, ridiculous. ]

... It's not like I'm going to fight back against you over something like that either way. You're.. my boyfriend, after all. [ as weird as it feels to say that, either way - still a little nice at the same time too - and her lips quirk up very slightly. ] I love you even if you're embarassing. [ because it's just another part of him, and in a way it's almost cute, really. ]

Good, because I love you even if you get embarrassed.

[Perfect match, aren't they?]

It would be awkward if after all this you went now and said you didn't love me or hated that part of me.

I love you, so.. that means every part of you. That's all.

[ So don't ~~think too much of it~~ mind it too much when she realises their hands are still that close, so they might as well just downright go ahead and hold hands - hence that is what she's doing right now. But to divert the attention from that.. ]

... Ah, look. There's some of the fireworks.

Every part, even the smallest one?

[He's just smiling over her, quickly to close hold on her hand once she goes ahead and holds his. Possessive? Ok, maybe a tiny bit, but nothing serious. He eyes the fireworks though as she talks about them.]

You picked an excellent spot to watch them. Good call.

[ She was trying to distract you with the fireworks thing, why do you have to ask all the same!! Although.. well, she could at least answer, since she knows the answer firmly, so.. ]

Hmm. Even the smallest one. [ because she can't even imagine being here like this with someone who isn't him, the person she loves.

But yes, the fireworks, this is where she tries to turn the topic away from something that embarassing-- ]

Of course, I'm practically the expert of high places here. ... Ah, the champion of rooftops, some officially assigned me that title right before you arrived.

Do I want to know how you acquired that experience?

[He's just teasing, he doesn't really care about knowing or not.]

So you were here with other people before I arrived, huh? Should I worry?

[ It's not a good idea to completely smash the mood with a hammer by telling him all about how she jumped off a skyscraper in a suicidal fit, okay. So she just casually shrugs, moving on to the latter question instead. ]

What, worried that your girlfriend is so popular? [ she's joking. ]

I already know you're popular. What worries me is you finding too quickly someone better.

[Sip. He says it so casually and honestly it's hard to see if he's joking or not.]

You're a real idiot if you think I can find someone better.

[ It is hard to see, which is why she figures she should at least say it. And if he was joking, then that's fine too, since it's something that she truly feels so she should say it either way. ]

Because this is already the best possible scenario for me. I-- [ nngh, force it out even if it's embarassing.. ] I don't think I could love anyone more than I love you now, so don't even joke about worrying about it, okay?

[He doesn't answer right away, instead he looks at her, almost worried for a second before he smiles comfortably and nods.]

I know, sorry I said that. This is the best possible scenario for me as well. No one has ever made me feel the way you do just by being here.

No one? Even though a guy like you must have been popular before?

[ The closest she ever came to something like that was Amakusa, after all, and that was still more in an 'I actually care more for you than I show' kind of way than something actually romantic. ]

I had a crush, a deep and strong one, I used to think it really was love... But even before you arrived I had come to realize that it wasn't really love. I care for her a lot, I will always do, and out of all my friends she will always be the one that can read me better and who knows the right words to tell me at any moment. I admire her a lot and want her to be happy... But I didn't really care about doing it myself. And the times she left, though I was sad and I took one specially badly because of how it happened, I always knew I could live on and continue with my life.

... If you left I don't think I could stand it. It may be the only thing together with Minato leaving that would make me want to leave this place immediately.

[He replies honestly, sounding a bit apologetic when talking about the crush part. He tightens his hold on her hand a bit, though.]

And I wasn't that popular, really. If any at all.

[ As if he would have to be apologetic for that - she wouldn't blame him for having liked someone before her, either way. More fish in the sea, after all, and they're both still young, so as long as they have each other now that's okay. She drops that part though, so Keiichi won't have to keep feeling like he has to apologize over telling that, and smiles almost a little deviously at him. ]

A guy like you, not popular? I'm surprised. [ She squeezes his hand a little for a moment in return. ]

Your surprise is irrelevant, you're biased.

[Chuckling a bit.]

Biased towards the truth.

[ besides, he's just as biased towards her, so she can joke about this - even if she does mean all of it. ]

The truth has many faces, Ange. Even the biggest and most general ones depend on how you look at them.

[So you're still biased and it doesn't count.]

[ nudging him in the side a little with her elbow, but she can't surpress a small smile. ]

Just shut up and watch the fireworks.
