[he naturally kisses back?

it probably tastes a bit like relief. he sighs faintly after, and kisses tsuru again, soft.

he's not the type to show obvious panic, whether it be public or private. but some of the tension leaves him, having tsuru so close and safe again.]

[preowned]

[ after a moment, ]

Sorry for leaving you for so long.

[unsaid]

... I am accustomed to waiting.

[a beat - he lets his forehead rest against tsurumaru's]

But it remains too quiet, when you are not near.

[preowned]

... I will be extra loud to make up for it then.

[ no

but he will close his eyes. ]

[unsaid]

[well...]

If it is you, then I shall welcome anything.

[preowned]

[ he does not respond, and is quiet long enough that he could be mistaken for being asleep

and then his eyes open again. ]

Huh?

[unsaid]

[ . . . . hm.

he doesn't like that.]

... is something puzzling, my dear?

[preowned]

No... I think I'm still tired.

[ he shakes his head. ]

Was there another group? There's usually two.

[unsaid]

... you lost a considerable amount of blood. Shinobu Kocho ought to see to you shortly.

[since he was healed and all but like. you know. still should get a human repairs expert]

I believe I heard a splash as we were leaving and from the glance I spared... [he cants his head to the side] Sebastian DeBeste, Bradley Bain, Zuko, and Sheila Hammond... I believe.

[preowned]

I see...

[ that's unfortunate. ]

Hopefully they were fine. Who healed me? I need to give them a thank you gift.

[unsaid]

Cloud Strife.

[so jiji looks forward to seeing what this thank you gift is]

[preowned]

My dearest companion, Cloud Strife...

[ since now ]

[unsaid]

Should I call for him? I will give the two of you space if you would like to share a heartfelt moment.

[cloud would hate that]

[preowned]

You don't have to, as every moment I share with him is heartfelt.

[unsaid]

What a strong bond you've forged in our short time here, Tsurumaru Kuninaga....

[he sounds so sincerely pleased]

[preowned]

My heart is quite open.

[ he reaches over to grab his hand ]

[unsaid]

[tsuru can have mikazuki's hand, sure]

Cloud Strife also possesses a certain endearing quality to him...

[preowned]

... he does.

Perhaps you should leave me for him?

[unsaid]

[ ? ]

Was this not a lead up to you leaving me for him?

[preowned]

I feel like it would be more interesting if we steal from each other like this...

[ he's making this a telenovela ]

[unsaid]

If you insist, I suppose.

[jiji truly lets tsuru do whatever he wants

even as he presses a kiss to his jaw]

[preowned]

[ he just laughs at that, and is just going to press himself as closely as he can to him without potentially being in an awkward position for his wounds. ]

I always insist, my love.

[unsaid]

[mikazuki will allow it, shifting so that he can let his arms loop around tsurumaru. his hold isn't necessarily loose as much as it is mindful of his injuries.

but he knows factually that he wants to touch him again, just to know he is here and well]

Mm.... Then you may steal from me whoever you wish.

[that's not how stealing works]

[preowned]

As long as you allow me to.

[ still not how it works.

but there's a pause. ]

We did not get anything like a note, for the record.

[unsaid]

Hmm... Then it is the same as my experience.

Perhaps it alternates between the two groups... so I will inquire with Bradley Bain or the others.

[ . . . presses another kiss to tsuru's nose]

Later.
