Very well. I suppose you found yours in the game room?

[... c: He'll put a hand on her shoulder. He's in a good mood today, and he can always get that present of hers later.]

Yep. It's funny, how new things pop up in there all the time. I went in one day and it was just sitting there.

[Shrugs, then shifts closer to give him a hug from the side.]

Perhaps I'll look there a bit later, then.

[Oh you. Have a full on hug, missy.]

If you have any trouble finding it, I can help.

[--oh hello, she approves of this.]

Well, I wouldn't mind.

[Okay, good. He'll stay put, then. c:

Does she want a kiss?]

Okay...

[Well, she wouldn't object.]

[Okay. &hearts

Surprise kiss is go?]

[! Lets out a little surprised squeak, but smiles and quickly returns it.]

[Awesome. He won't make it toooo long, really. Unless she wants him to!]

[No no, that's up to him. She's just snapping her DS shut and slipping it in her pocket. Free hands are better for hugs.]

[Well, considering they're out in public... well, he'll pull back soon enough.

But he's still right here. Yup. c:]

[Well, just don't expect her to let up on that hug yet!]

That was a nice surprise.

[He isn't, either, so it's all good.]

Well, it only felt appropriate... After all, it's been nearly a year since I truly admitted my feelings for you.

[Hmmm. She nods, looking thoughtful.]

You're right. It's gone by really fast.

True, but I've enjoyed every minute of it.

[--he sees that thoughtful look. Yup.]

[Leans back a little, but doesn't let go of him.]

Ienzo... Can I ask you a question?

Certainly. What is it, Kairi?

[Does drop her hands now, looking slightly nervous.]

I'm... not very good at this, I know. Even if we are in the dressing room, I haven't really been around as much as I could have. So I'd like to start spending more time with you.

... Kairi, you're wonderful. Please, don't ever think otherwise.

[he shakes his head, squeezing her a bit]

Of course, I wouldn't object to spending more time with you at all. If anything, I'm just as at fault, really.

[Laughs softly, having turned faintly pink at that.]

No you're not. I mean... I get stuck in my games and it's like I disappear, I know. My mom would complain about it all the time. So.

[Stands up straight.]

I want to be a better girlfriend than that.

I understand. Truth be told, back in the Garden that's essentially how I was when I wasn't in the company of my colleagues and Master Ansem, or the Kairi from my world. I'd spend hours on end immersed in the many books within the castle library... The same could be said for the first four or five months I stayed here.

Truth be told, this likely wouldn't have changed if I hadn't met you.

[He looks quite serious here, too.]

Perhaps we could both try to spend more time together. Hmm...

[Maybe... Well, possibly. HRM.]

[Awww, Ienzo. She thinks that's awfully sweet of him to say, and will show it by wrapping her arms around him in another hug.]

We're a good match. And I'm not saying you have to change your habits if you don't want to, but maybe if we're just doing things like that we can sit in the same room? I'll bring my DS, you can bring a book...

[Shrugs.]

[Yay, hugs. He'll go ahead and give her another one, too.]

I wouldn't mind, if that's what you'd like. There's a lot we could do together, after all. Of course, I wouldn't mind your suggestion, either. We could always do both, you know.

But, well...

[He has an ideaaaa.]

We could always move closer together as well.

[Oh? She is intrigued!]

I definitely wouldn't mind that. How would we work that out?

[There might be free rooms near her. She's not sure.]

I suppose we could always search for an empty room nearby. Or, alternatively... We could always stay together. Erm... that is, if you wouldn't mind.

[Awkward? Maaaaybe]
