_{@frightsight liked for a starter.}

_{legs are propped up quite comfortably on the edge of dark brown coffee table, toes underneath the soles of black boots click together in a neurotic manner. fidgeting. finds it difficult to remain still. “ seiji, you’re really pretty. i mean it, super pretty. probably the prettiest girl i’ve ever met. ” matter of fact in tone, though an empty compliment coming from the stone boy. liked to hand them out quite blindly. of course she was pretty, though he could say the same about most people he met.}

frightsight:

        ^{her eyes fall, chest deflating as eager excitement dissipates. she’d been so happy to see him ! she’d just chattered her little heart away, fingers pulled around stuffed kitten & & eyes focused on him.   “ d-dumb ?  “ the biggest thing to an actual INSULT the little ghouling will take to heart.    everyone calls her dumb, or at least … thinks she is.   even HIM, her friend has come out & & said it.     ( are you DUMB or something ? )}  

       ^{she picks at her hand,   not looking at him.  “ n-no … not dumb. s-seiji very smart, oppas say.”}

_{such a strange vocabulary she had - michael wouldn’t even try to guess what an OPPAS was. nonetheless, he noticed the decline in her demeanor. deflated and sad, he knew he had said something WRONG though was having difficulty pinpointing what it was.}

_{“ whats wrong ?? ” looks at her with an appalled expression, leans forward and squints his eyes in confusion. “ don’t look all sad, what’cha got to look SAD for? all i said was that you was actin’ dumb - if you ain’t dumb then you ain’t dumb. ” a sad excuse for an apology, words getting jumbled as they left his lips on the defense. always struggled with words, though it tended to become more prevalent when he was WORKED UP.}

_{he didn’t mean to HURT HER FEELINGS, didn’t know she was going to be so sensitive. “c’mon, you know i wouldn’t make you all sad like that on purpose. im your BESTEST friend in the whole world aren’t i? ”}

_{@frightsight liked for a STARTER !!}

_{he’s getting annoyed, SHE ALWAYS DOES THIS !! eyes are slanted in a dumbfounded glare, images of his hand fitting over her mouth to make her stop talking float dauntingly close on the edge of actuality the more she goes on. he figures that wouldn’t stop her though, she’d probably talk a hole right through it. maybe she’d bite one through it first.}

_{“ YOU are seiji. your name is seiji. you’re aaaalways talking like it’s not but it IS! why d’ya keep doin’ that huh? is it because you’re dumb or something? ”}

frightsight:

      ^{“ no you can’t ! princesses … they only have ONE boyfriend tha’ they love super much !’  seiji does not like the implications of his words. sharing boyfriends ? sharing kisses ? no —- that won’t do.  she stamps her foot. “ n-no tree-boy ! i don’t …. don’t wanna share boyfriends with you ! since you already have a lotta boyfriends who kiss you —— i want —- want MY boyfriend to kiss me ! no sharing ! not fun !”}

_{eyes nearly roll at her refusal, thinks it boring to be so strict on your morals but decides its best to let it go ( poor girl looks like she might cry ! ). “ well fine then, if you don’t want to kiss me then that’s your loss. ” leans back in his seat, pulls one leg up onto the red, peeling leather so he can tear at a rip in his jeans. “ so what’s your boyfriend like anyway? is he CUTE like me? ”}

frightsight:

       ^{notice how those soft cheeks are turning more && more of a flaming pink !  she backs away, little hands going to cover her eyes.  “c-cause ! you aren’t seiji’s boyfriend ! only boyfriends can give kisses ! “ she’s always believed that the lips of a princess ought to remain CHASTE until a prince comes forward to claim them.   “ && if you did —- um,      seiji would give you a PUNCH ! hard punch.  right in the face !”}

                 ^{she doesn’t mean it. not at all, but she has to say something. her cheeks won’t last long flaming the way they are !  “ n-no ! yous not seiji’s boyfriend !”}

_{“ you can have more than one boyfriend, seiji. ” says it as if she’s IGNORANT as if its supposed to be common knowledge. “ i have lots of boyfriends, who kiss me all the time. ” smirks as if he’s proud, though the company he keeps were hardly made from BOYFRIEND MATERIAL. “ you could have TWO boyfriends, and he could kiss me too. doesn’t that sound like fun? ”}

frightsight:

    ^{she throws two quarters at him. how dare he just kiss her ! only boyfriends and parents are supposed to stuff her virgin lips ! not some tree-boy.  “  if she wasn’t so embarrassed, she’d SCOWL seiji will settle for a blushing face && a small punch. she is NOT strong right now.  “ d-don’t — don’t do it again !”}

_{thought she’d LIKE THE KISS, he knows kisses always made him feel great but she seems to be offended. the punch has no impact on michael physically, though he doesn’t understand why she won’t kiss him. she’s CUTE, and he deserves to be KISSED. “ oh yeah? and what if i did? ” didn’t see how she could stop him if he snuck one, takes a quarter that she threw and traps it between his finger and the diner table, flicking it and sending it whirling quickly across the table.} 

_{body leans forward a bit closer, pushing out his lip in a pout at her from across the table. “ just one more? COME ON ! i won’t tell. “}

frightsight:

      you made her BLUSH !!   ^{his kiss was not expected && now the little ghouling almost topples. she’d been forced to stand in a chair to reach his cheeks ! “ y-you kissed me !”}

^@gargyld

_{gives her a SMIRK though he knows he liked it just as much ( maybe even more ! ) - KISSES, his most treasured action. his mouth had been pressed to plenty of things ( unhygienic little boy ), he would kiss whoever asked and sometimes even when they DIDN’T.} 

_{“ yep, and they aren’t free. ” puckers his lips to get one back, corners turning up in a smile as he does.}
