[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?

We can do one that doesn't require fighting?

[Yoosung doesn't sound enthusiastic about this idea though.]

...or is this a weird idea?

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.

[Yoosung blushes harder but his smile spreads wider too, as he looks up from his food.]

Maybe... But I'm your sap! And I do love to snuggle, so I think that sounds really nice!

[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.]

Yeah?

[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?

[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?

An experiment?

[He considers it.]

I like it. Suits you.

[He feels a warmth bloom in his chest hearing that from Katsuki, and he smiles, pleased and a little shy.]

Yeah?

[Ah, about the experiment...]

Oh, um... I needed to see... I dunno, I felt like I needed to see if I could still feel pain? It sounds dumb saying it out loud...

Because of the coming back thing? I don't think it's dumb.

[He can... actually understand. Like he said before, he has moments of "am I really alive?"]

Testing it like this is actually pretty clever. I never really had the thought to test it because kids get messed up doing dumb shit all the time. But in my early teens I did get pretty curious about my quicker healing.

[It's a relief how Katsuki understands him. He nods at what he says about kids doing dumb things but then frowns, concerned, at the rest of it.]

What does that mean? You got curious about it? What did you do?

[He realizes pretty quickly that he said something concerning and likely where Yoosung's mind went.]

It's probably not what you're imagining. I got really reckless. Went places I had no business being. Did shit I had no business doing. Picked a lot of fights. Had a guy pull a knife on me once and I remember wondering if the healing was just skin deep or if it applied to organs and stuff? I never found out because his buddies and mine all freaked out and de-escalated the situation.

[He's not sure if that's better or worse than what he was imagining, really. Psychologically probably better? But still, worrisome and terrifying.

Yoosung sighs and leans his head on Katsuki's shoulder.]

Yeah... having your organs hurt and healed isn't super fun, either.

[Trust him. He had the experience.]

That makes me feel like I'm really lucky you're still here with me today...

[Katsuki reaches up to brush Yoosung's bangs back, kissing his forehead.]

Hey. Listen. I know I do some pretty reckless shit sometimes. But I'm not trying to get myself killed. I meant what I said before. I'm not dying for anyone. No matter what trouble I come up against, I'm coming back to you, alive.

[Aaah, that forehead kiss is too sweet, he blushes a little and looks at Katsuki with the softest expression.]

I know. I'm glad. Plus, you're really strong, and I'm glad about that too.

[Not invincible, obviously, but who is? ...disregarding the fact that Yoosung came back to life. Everyone else has pointed out the issues with that enough he knows it doesn't really make him invincible either.

And Yoosung doesn't miss that "coming back to you" bit. It gives him warm fuzzies immediately.]

...I'll always come back to you, too.

[He means that in so many different ways.]
