[Ooh, yeah, that might be easier. I was wondering how it was going with trying to keep doing the opposite.

She feels good, though. Maybe a part of her was worried that something would change, but it hasn't--except for the better.

And of course Rita will act as though she has more experience than a curse or two.]

You think you can do better?

[ IT'S HARDER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. Let's just switch to morality reversal and...we can replay the beginning later. Or now. Whichever. /)_(\

This is definitely better to him, too. It feels more like they've become more open with each other than have actually changed.

Now he can tease her and kiss her at the same time. Always a bonus. ]

Have you caught your breath yet?

[It's okay, I figured it'd be tricky! Shall we just continue as-is for now? we can always make a note that the curse was changed.]

That's just how it is, and it's...pretty liberating.

Well if Tyr's going to tease-!] You better have.

[Because in response, she'll move in again.]

[ Yeah, that works! It might not be all that different anyway. :') ]

[ And being free to be express how they really feel wirh each other is the best.

...Tyr really likes this side of Rita. Grinning, he meets her lips and presses a firm kiss against them as he pulls her closer against him. ]

[Yeah! Since it's still kind of the opposite. :>

[Definitely, definitely the best. Even Rita didn't realize how much she must have wanted this until now, and she'll happily curl her fingers in his hair--while not the most gentle about it, she tries to be careful not to pull.]

[ Yeah. :3 I was kinda making it an AU in my head last night, too. ]

[ As long as she doesn't yank on his hair, he likes when she holds it. He doesn't want to admit how much he's wanted to do this with her - just hold her close and kiss her - but he's not holding back now. Even if that really just means holding her hand more and missing her sloppily. ]

[Oooh, AU Tyr...]

[She'll do her best not to pull it! So far, so good. When Tyr kissed her first--and then kissed her back--a lot of her insecurity was put to rest, so she doesn't worry too much about what she's doing right or wrong. It all feels very right, sloppy and all.

She pulls away again when she needs to breathe. Wow, breathing's kind of annoying at times like this--but she smiles softly at him.] Better?

[ Yeah, since I'd have to change something pretty fundamental about him to switch his morality! ]

[ ~~The one time it'd be better to be City-dead.~~ Tyr is definitely not picky about the way Rita kisses him; he just wants to kiss her. When they pull away again, Tyr rests his forehead against hers, noticing how warm their skin is just then. Being happy like this, with her smiling with him, feels sort of unreal. Or maybe he needs to breathe more. ]

That's my question. I thought I was the one who was supposed to do better for you.

[Yeah, if you wanted to make it caused by an event. :|a]

[~~Only for the breathing.~~ It's nice being this close, with no misgivings or awkwardness. Maybe it's sappy, but Rita feels ridiculously happy right now.]

You've done way beyond good already.

[ It's not actually hard to imagine him like this...but the whole of Suikoden I wouldn't have happened. 8| ]

[ ~~In the meantime, they need to practice breathing calmly through their nose more.~~ So, so sappy... But Tyr kind of likes that when she's being sappy too. If he could blush more, he probably would when she says that, but instead she just gets a short, awkward laugh. ]

Then we should keep going until we're both on the same level.

[Sob, yeah...He needs to be a good friend and leader for all of the game! ;_;]

[~~At least Tyr has done breathing exercises!~~ A bit of sappydere now and then. She smiles--almost shyly, but happy, too--and as long as they're being sappy...]

I can keep going as long as you want.

[ That's right! No torturing people to teach them lessons... ]

[ ~~He has! Now he gets to do more.~~ She's so cute when she smiles. ...But he sort of wants to tease her. ]

So I'm the one that needs to keep up with you?

[nknasd none of that!]

[~~Yes! Now Rita needs to practice, too!~~ And he gets a bit of a blush out of that.]

S-something like that.

[ Nope, none! :< ]

[ ~~Tyr will be happy to help!~~ Hmmm... He pulls his head away, but doesn't fully move away yet. ]

We should go somewhere else if we're going to keep this up, though... [ No-one walking in on them... ]

[Except during a curse...]

[~~Ooh, Commander Tyr~~~ She blinks at first, and then her eyes widened.]

Oh--I-I hadn't even...Yeah. [The thought didn't occur to her at all, but they are out here on the couch, so she nods. It does make her wonder briefly just how much he wants to do...But she decides that doesn't really matter right now.]

[ ...Curses are bad. ._. ]

[ ~~He'll lead her all the way~~~ Tyr doesn't even think about how much they'll do; he just doesn't want to put on a show for anyone. He gives her a lopsided smile and tugs her to her feet as he stands. ]

Don't worry about it. We should actually stop and have something to eat now anyway before everyone else gets up.

[Terrible...;_;]

[~~Kyaa~ And she'll follow~~~ Rita would also definitely not like to put on a show for anyone. Still flushed--but with her heart rate starting to go back to normal--she pretty much matches his expression.]

Yeah...That's a good idea. [And her expression softens as she tightens her hold on his hand.]

[ Hurting each other... ;~; ]

[ ~~Just like they should~~~ He gives her hand a little squeeze back. His head is still in the clouds just because that time felt so unreal. Part of him still can't believe it.

He guides her into the kitchen and doesn't let go of her hand as he opens up the fridge. ] Anything you want? We have plenty here.

[Nearly killing each other... ;o;]

[~~Always together~~~ Rita can't even describe it as being like an amazing dream--not when it's this real. So she'll just be in a bit of a happy daze herself as she walks with him.]

How about eggs?

[ --kiss, but ~~that can change >:3~~ whatever you come up with will be nice! Do you have a preference? ]

[ ~~Best friends and comrades~!♥~~ It could be a dream, but Tyr doesn't think so. He just never thought this could actually happen... ]

That sounds good to me. [ He pulls out the eggs and sets them on the counter, but now he does have to let go of her hand. ]

[~~No matter what!~~ Neither did Rita, but now that it has, she wants nothing different.

She's almost reluctant to let go, something she chalks up to the strangeness of this morning, but does so anyway. It's not like she has to be clingy!]

You want an omelette? [Because maybe she feels like being sappy a bit more and cooking.]

[ ~~Curses not withstanding!~~ They can cling to each other after breakfast! Maybe cuddle a little... Tyr likes sappy things like that.

But first, breakfast. He looks over at her curiously. ]

You want to cook with me?

[~~Yes! Awful curses...~~ Sappy things like that usually fluster Rita...but of course, it's different with Tyr.]

Why not? I can cook. [Usually, she's just really, really lazy about it...]

[ ~~Painful ones...~~ Rita's the only one he wants to do it with, too. ]

I know. I just didn't know you wanted to...

[ He pushes the carton of eggs between them. It's a little silly, but there's something fun about cooking with her side-by-side. ]

So how do you want yours?

[~~Dangerous ones...~~ And Rita's really glad. She's never been that kind of person for anyone else.]

I just feel like doing it today. [Must be all the giddiness. She looks around for a frying pan as she answers.]

Omelette. You?

Now with an actual kiss icon. |D

Most appropriate kiss icon. X3

Hee, all it needs to be more appropriate is to have Tyr in there.

If only we had one!

Maybe one day-! If either of us draws it~

It's veeeery tempting...

Aaah, it is~

Let's do it! Someday.

Yes! When we feel like it. :D

That's right~♥

Yeees~

♥! I always wanted to have one...

Eee, then you should definitely have one! I was thinking about it, too. ;v;

We should both make them!! ;v; ~for each other~

Aww, I like this idea! ♥

X3 Let's do it~!

Okay! :D Do you have any kind of preference? Kissing, snuggling...?

Oh! Hmm... Nah, whatever you come up with will be nice! They snuggle more than--

Hee, okay! I'll see what I think of, then~ And anything is also good with me! ♥

Eee, okay~♥

I can't wait~

Me either ♥

Yaay~ X)
