[ malkuth......... ]

Just to scare your friends.

[ignoreher]

Kaito used to do it to me a lot, so it'll be payback. I really like walking around otherwise.

[frostfist]

Then I wish you the best of success in enacting your revenge.

[ sorry kaito. ]

It is quite nice being able to walk places though and take in all the sights.

[ignoreher]

[ THANKS WRIO YOU'RE A REAL ONE FOR REAL!!!!! ]

Right? Especially with how bright everything is... I mean, the ads are A W F U L most of the time, but it's bearable to see everything lit up at night.

What'd you get? For the surgery.

[frostfist]

Maybe we should take a post-meal walk the next time we grab dinner.

And the healing implants. Figured it wouldn't hurt to have a few extra hands on deck after a mission.

[ignoreher]

I'd love that! When you're feeling better then, though it makes me wish that I could've seen it in the winter. Was it snowing? Kuzu said there was ice skating...

Another healing... You, Kaito, March, and whoever else -- I really don't need to worry about a thing there. You know how to activate it?

[frostfist]

There was a little, but mostly I remember the heating systems failing for a week leaving all of us to freeze.

[ look, he might be an ice guy, but even he has his limits. ]

And isn't it triggered just by holding hands?

[ignoreher]

Brr. Talk about getting the cold shoulder...

Well, when Marmar and Kaito did it for me... It was affection? Like hugging and kissing. The contact was important, yeah, but that's what I remember from it.

[frostfist]

[ record scratch ]

Kissing?

[ignoreher]

Kissing! Just my hands though, where they hurt.

[ kissing injuries.................. ]

[frostfist]

[ thank you mods for giving us this trope ]

Noted. Is this how you plan on to wrangling a hug out of me?

[ignoreher]

I'm so sure you give good ones, Wriothesley. It's all I think about when I'm with you. How warm and snug it'd be...

[ the yearn is off the charts for a hug ]

[frostfist]

[ OKAY THEN ]

I'm certain that's an exaggeration.

[ignoreher]

[ stop edging affection ]

Maybe a little!
It's not all the time, just when I'm feeling a bit lonely. You're one of the people I don't feel guilty over bothering about pretty much anything.

[frostfist]

I'm flattered you feel that comfortable around me.

[ no really, he is. ]

How about this then? I'll come find you when I'm feeling better, and we can knock that one thing off your wishlist as payment for you keeping me company right now.

[ignoreher]

[ the list is shorter than people might think, it's true. exclusive club here with wriothesley. ]

You're being real sweet. What's the catch? Think it's just a one time want and I'll be satisfied after I get it?

[frostfist]

I would never expect you to be satisfied so easily.

[ in both the realm of hugs and other things. ]

But I have faith in your ability to draft up a convincing argument on why it'd be worth my time to offer you more hugs in the future.

[ignoreher]

[ thinking how differently this thread would go if she was into him like that ]

I'll get started on it! But my opening statement is that I'm very, very nice to hold. I fit perfectly into the arms of anyone who wants to try. A real natural at being embraced!

[ probably. she just relaxes easily into hugs... makes it easy to fit like puzzle pieces. ]

[frostfist]

And your [ is there even a good term for this ] crownd of admiring suitors won't mind?

[ look man, he doesn't want to get caught up in any drama. also verg already thinks he's wishy-washy enough. ]

[ignoreher]

[ her suitors.... ]

Why should they? But if they give you any trouble about it, I'll set them straight.

I don't think they're the jealous type (well, Kaito might be) but I mean, we're just friends. If they're threatened by this, then what else would they be threatened by?

[frostfist]

[ her suitors and my typos, augh. ]

Even so, I'd rather not complicate things for you. You did say you've had enough of an eventful month to last you some time.

[ignoreher]

Don't worry about it, Wriothesley. It won't complicate anything at all -- if anything, it'll make things crystal clear.

[ one time she can forgive... but after that it's harder; third time's the charm only applies to chances you give yourself, not chances you give to others. ]

But if it makes you feel better, it doesn't need to be a public affair. What they don't know won't hurt them, right?

[frostfist]

So you're saying we should meet in your room for an illicit hug rendezvous.

[ignoreher]

It's your place or mine, buddy. And only one of us has a suitor down the hall.

[ might she! remind him! ]

[frostfist]

[ this is still such a dangerous thing to talk about when he is still (redacted) ]

How do you know I haven't also picked up a suitor down the hall?
