[You know what's highly sus? You. Kidnapping old people... ]
Worrying causes wrinkles, no thanks. [ And no one wants that, okay. She knows that his past... is definitely an issue, but he's a strong person and honestly? Considering that he used to get stiff and weird out when she'd hold his hand or hug him, he's come a long way. Just sitting close on the bench together, cuddling close willingly and of his own accord should be proof enough of that. She's proud of him and how far he's come. He's allowed to map out his feelings and come to terms with things at his own pace, and she'll do everything she can to help with that however he wants.
HE SURE DID...... which was shocking and flattering. Boy she'd been nervous during their first date...]
You can say that again. Assholes. I hate cops. [ Except for Zenkichi but does he even count at this point considering he's one of them and also Dad of The Group™? ] It was. The whole thing was stupid and I'm glad it's over with. S...orta. It'd be a lie to say it wasn't nice to be back in action for a while. [ If only there was someone to kick around here, but. It's all hugs and sunshine for now. ] Nope, and fortunately there's only two people here who know about all of this, so, no worries about any of that stuff here.
[ For now. ]
See? See all of the habits I'm learning from you? [ Screw the rules! She hums and nods sagely. ] Yes, agreed. Definitely need a whole lot of penalties. For good measure. [ His next statement makes her laugh, though, and she leans in to kiss him again. ] As if I'd throw anything on purpose! [ ESPECIALLY against Seto... despite her unending love and affection for him, somehow he still manages to bring out her competitive side. ]
R...reports. [ Except she's not talking about office reports or power point presentations. She's talking about school work. Is she pale? She's definitely pale. Ugh. School. ]
[.... Thankfully, you didn't have to see that. COUGH]
How nice it must be. [Shaking his head disapprovingly, but really he could appreciate how lowkey she was being about everything. Ann had her own concerns and things she felt passionate about but this lighthearted side of her balanced him and his drier generally more biting commentary. Thankfully, she was smart enough not to broach this conversation out loud for while it was true that he had made great strides he would have felt like such a loser to really have to discuss any of this. Map out his ... feelings. Really? Even though it was true that he needed to.
Kaiba definitely tried to appear unflappable on that date, but he had some qualms too. It's not like he wanted to be the worst date she ever had...]
Eh, I don't feel that strongly about them either way. [The cops in her dimension were something else however] There's something about the adrenaline rush? [Now, that, he would understand. Why do you think he jumps off moving vehicles, and sometimes employs the use of jet packs, etc? Or why he tried to make his fav game have a method to simulate death if you lose?] If anyone ever does give you trouble... [Tell him about it.]
All the bad ones... [It's only bad unless he's doing it] I'll keep thinking of new ones to increase the risk... [and escalate things. COUGH. Sure he could have prevented the follow up kiss, but he doesn't drinking it in with pleasure.] Right answer. [No throwing matches ever.]
Grades. [Huh. Now they shifted it into uncomfortable territory for her instead of him] How many exams did you say you passed last time you were in your own dimension...?
It really is. You should try it sometime. [ She grins at him, kissing his cheek again. Oh, she knows better than to ever say anything like this out loud and proud, alone or not, because she knows his reaction would not be a good one. He'd roll his eyes and probably loudly declare it stupid and... no one needs that. Especially right now. Right now all he needs to worry about and focus on is just living in the moment and being happy. As happy as he can be until they map out their feelings straight back to Domino while trapped here, at least.
They were definitely struggling to navigate the date waters, that's for sure. If it helps, she didn't want to be the worst date HE'D ever had, either. He's the only guy she's ever been on a date with anyways... ]
I'm glad they don't bother you too much, at least. Let's keep it that way. [ She h a t e s. Them. ] Something like that. Also, getting things done and not... sitting around while bad shit happens. If that makes sense. [ It probably makes sense. Of course he'd understand, though... he'd probably enjoy being a Phantom Thief himself. Then again, he may not entirely agree with their shenanigans, either. STOP MAKING DEATH SIMULATORS SETO. ] You're so sweet, but you don't need to worry about me. Especially here! [ No enemies y...et! ]
All of the good ones... [ She'll learn a l l of your cheating ways. ] Will you~? Care to give me an example? [ She's on cloud nine right now. This is probably the best surprise anyone's ever given her, and it's so nice to finally have some alone time. ]
Homework. [ Oh. She blinks, and then suddenly beams brightly, as if what she's about to tell him is something to truly be proud of. ] I passed all of them except for one! A lot better than I thought I'd do! Just had to re-take the failed exam and I was set to graduate.
