[That makes sense. Hmm, maybe he should invest in more skirts.]
Yeah, I... You felt like a hero. My hero? You helped me focus when I was panicking, helped me redirect myself to helping others. You were so confident too, about going back out into the thick of it...
[There's a dreamy little sigh here. Before he continues rambling, sorry Katsuki.]
Oh! When you gave Rika that keychain! That was such a nice gesture... You didn't have to do that. Mm, and I like any time I can see your arms, I have kind of a thing for your arms... And... I also like your scar...
[He finally trails off on his rambling, realizing he's revealed a lot and blushing harder.]
[That's... wow. Okay. Yoosung has a whole list here. Katsuki is feeling a little overwhelmed with how much Yoosung has seen in him. He absently brushes his thumbs across Yoosung's cheeks where he'd pinched him before lowering his hands.]
I like that you wanna help people. That you don't back down easy. That you... push back if I push you in ways you don't like? When I yelled at you about using that revival power, you pushed back. And it pissed me off? But when I thought about it later, I realized I liked that you didn't just back down.
[Yoosung deserves to know that even if Katsuki isn't quite as deep in this as he is, he's still in here. He still sees things in Yoosung that have made him come to like him as more than just a friend.]
You let me just kind of hit you with all kind of bullshit and let it roll right off but I know if I cross a line you're gonna tell me. And that's important to me?
[It's... freeing. Maybe that's why it's so easy to talk to Yoosung.]
...You're really kind to me. Even when I don't feel like I deserve it. And you make me feel good about the person I am.
[Yoosung's looking at him again with eyes sparkly with admiration as he listens to him, lovestruck smile on his face. It's sort of intense standing here listening to all these things that someone likes about him, he's never had that happen before with anyone, much less someone he has feelings for.]
Katsuki... I really like being with you. Maybe you don't realize you do it, but you always make me feel... Special, like I matter and like... Like my thoughts and feelings matter to you too. You are a good person, Katsuki. I've seen that in you since the beginning.
[He's surprised that somehow he's made Yoosung feel so special. It's not a bad surprise? But he's kind of had his fill of this softness for the moment. It's starting to get uncomfortable for him because it's... new. And new takes time. Not that he doesn't like it. But he casts for something more familiar. Teasing.]
Earlier you said you like my arms. Did you want to give these guns a squeeze? Since treats motivate you?
[Yoosung can sense that Katsuki is getting a little uncomfortable, so he eases off spilling all his feelings for a while. Though asking Yoosung not to be soft would be another thing entirely.
He laughs a little, thinking that Katsuki's just joking because he's uncomfortable, so he backs off physically as well, deciding to turn to take the pan from the counter to set in the sink, and maybe also set the table for their breakfast.]
You keep saying you're trying to motivate me but you gotta tell me what you mean to motivate me towards, you know~
[The space is appreciated. And he's grateful Yoosung doesn't seem disheartened by his need for it? That's good. He goes to grab the ketchup, to finish off the omurice.]
I dunno. Whatever you're aiming for. Whatever it is you wanna accomplish.
[He probably shouldn't answer that with "making you happy," huh?]
I've kinda been wondering if I could get into learning more about Pokemon with PokeGo... I think I might like that even more than the veterinary thing?
[Not to mention, the veterinary thing and even college feels so normal and his life... Does not feel normal anymore. There's this weird disconnect now, and it makes him feel a little crazy trying to pretend everything is normal around people who don't know that everything isn't.]
Mm, me neither. Or a girlfriend or anything. No first date, no first kiss...
[He laughs a little at that, embarrassed as he starts in on breakfast. It's still warm, thankfully. Their intermission of confessions hadn't lasted too long, then.]
[He nods, cheeks flushing, as he picks at his food.
He is a little nervous about it, though, after Zelos told him he probably kissed like a fish or something along those lines. He's afraid he'll be so bad at it that Katsuki will decide he doesn't even want to date him.]
I... Might be bad at it though, since I've never done it...
[Maybe that's for the best, then. That they're both so inexperienced. He had said that earlier of course, but he hadn't really been thinking about the kissing thing.
Yoosung can't help the little nose crinkle he gives the idea of questing for a first date. It's... Not very romantic sounding. Didn't people usually go to movies or something? Dinner? Of course, they've watched movies together at home before, and obviously done dinner and other meals together a fair amount since they've met...
Not to mention, one of the people in his post had mentioned dungeon crawling.]
I guess that's okay... If that's what you want... Just... Maybe don't expect me to fight a lot, okay?
Mm, I guess I do usually think of dates as like... Going to the movies, or dinner... But... I really just like being with you! So, I'll be okay doing whatever you wanna do. As long as we're together~
[Ah, is he getting too sappy again? He eats a little faster to hide his embarrassment.]
[Is he ever going to be used to how much Yoosung likes having him around? He doesn't know. But he likes that Yoosung likes having him around. He likes having Yoosung around.]
Heh. You're such a sap. I'll find us a good quest then. And maybe after we can still grab dinner. Snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie.
[Well if Yoosung likes to cuddle, they have some time after breakfast for that. So once they've eaten and cleaned up, Katsuki scoops Yoosung up and carries him to the couch, plopping down with his new boyfriend in his lap.]
[Well, that's a pleasant surprise. He never really thought before about if he'd enjoy being picked up and carried by someone, or like being the one sitting on someone else's lap... But he definitely is both enjoying it and thinking about it now. Probably he'll be thinking about it quite a lot from now on.
He's sitting in Katsuki's lap. This is quite possibly the hardest he's ever blushed in his life. His face feels like it's on fire. How is he meant to respond to this? Well, the truth shouldn't hurt, right?]
I... I liked that. I like this. Being carried. Being in your lap.
[Idly, he traces the collar of Katsuki's shirt with a fingertip.]
[Blush starting to settle from that initial flare-up, he blinks when Katsuki touches his ear, then reaches up to touch it as well.
Oh, right. The little star stud. It's so new, he almost forgot.]
Mm, yeah. I got it over the weekend, after our training... After the wings first appeared. It... It was kinda an experiment, but actually I like it so I think I'm gonna keep it?

[Katsuki understands that feeling. Like he should be doing something bigger. But he has no idea what. So he's sticking cyber security for now.]

[He finishes setting the table and sits down.]
It would be nice to be able to take care of them in some way like that. They probably have Pokemon vets.
no subject
[Actually... there's a thought. A job not existing doesn't mean there isn't a need for it? Something to chew on. For now he shoots Yoosung a grin.]
I'll give you plenty of motivation.
no subject
Gah! You're so flirty now! What an I supposed to say to that?

[He brings the omurice over to the table so they can finally dig in. He's hungry.]

Just more to figure out together. Guess I can figure out something good for a first date... maybe we could do a quest together?

[Katsuki toys with Yoosung's hair a little. He'll keep that in mind. That Yoosung likes being carried. He can definitely carry him around, no sweat.
As he's toying with Yoosung's hair, this close together, he notices something. He touches the little stud in Yoosung's ear.]
This new?
