Comments

oh ho ho

[iaijutsu]

I do not believe that Hijikata-san would fall easily, but it will be a relief to see him again, regardless.

[ex_onslaught851]

Yes, I am sure it would be. Being separated from one's comrades in a strange world such as this...

[Well. He's been there. He squeezes Saitou's shoulder gently.]

It will be all right, Hajime-dono.

[iaijutsu]

[Saitou's not normally the type to need or be particularly receptive to those kinds of attempts at reassurance, but...Yukimura somehow makes the platitude sound more believable than most.]

Thank you.

[ex_onslaught851]

[Considering that Yukimura's never been particularly good at reassuring anyone of anything, at least in his mind, this... is a good enough start. For now he doesn't say anything more, but when no one else is watching, he presses a light kiss to Saitou's cheek.]

[iaijutsu]

[Even if nobody is watching at the moment, that gets a blush out of Saitou - though it would be a much deeper one if anybody were looking in their direction - but he doesn't protest, either.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[... He is so cute the world is probably going to explode. Yukimura can't stop grinning.]

Did I embarrass you, Hajime-dono?

[iaijutsu]

As long as nobody was watching, I suppose it is not a problem.

[Translation: yes.]

[ex_onslaught851]

You suppose...?

[That's a dangerous game you're playing, Saitou. Which just means Yukimura will have to go for the lips this time.]

[iaijutsu]

[Please hold, brain rebooting.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[Hmm, he's not protesting. Maybe if he kisses him again...?]

[iaijutsu]

[You make it so hard for a guy to collect his thoughts enough to protest, Yukimura. He's busy trying to make sure his heart actually stays put instead of thumping its way out of his chest and all.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[This time Yukimura deepens the kiss, his hand moving up to cup Saitou's cheek. As long as he's not protesting, well- this is a risk that he wants to take. Maybe just this once.]

[iaijutsu]

[Well, that'll certainly get him to blush harder. His hand moves to Yukimura's shoulder - and then stays there, as though he's torn between "what if someone sees us, I should push him off" and "nobody was too close to here, a little longer couldn't hurt."]

[ex_onslaught851]

[Just a little longer was all that Yukimura wanted. He knew that someone might see them here-- and there were more appropriate places for this, besides. But now that the moment was here, he wanted to be able to enjoy it for a little while longer, and so he leans in closer, enjoying the moment while he can before he's pushed back (and rightfully so, most likely).]

[iaijutsu]

[He waits until they come up for air - because they have to, sometime - before giving Yukimura's shoulder a gentle push back.

He doesn't look displeased about it, though.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[The fact that he doesn't look displeased about it is good enough for Yukimura- and he can't help giving Saitou a shy smile, even as he moves back to give him some space.

That was definitely worth any potential embarrassment.]

[iaijutsu]

[It's that smile that held him back from pushing Yukimura back sooner in the first place - he didn't want to get a kicked puppy face instead. He likes when Yukimura smiles like that.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[It would be pretty difficult for Saitou to upset him like that, let's be real. Though Saitou is one of the few people who can make him smile like this too. He flushes a little beneath that intense gaze, but it only makes the smile even brighter.]

[iaijutsu]

[Oh, so he's blushing a little, is he?

What's that thing they say? Turnabout is fair play?]

[ex_onslaught851]

[That's not fair, Hajime-dono. Don't make him make you blush again.

Like... say... by taking your hand.]

[iaijutsu]

[CRITICAL HIT...]

[ex_onslaught851]

[GREAT SUCCESS.

Don't think that he's going to let go anytime soon, either.]

[iaijutsu]

[He can live with that.]

[ex_onslaught851]

[Even if someone sees them?]

[iaijutsu]

[...well, he might be keeping an eye out for anyone who might approach so they can just avoid that potential moment of awkward.]
