viscontree on February 14th, 2017 12:52 am (UTC)I'll be there in a moment.
[He brushes his hair and moves to the kitchen almost immediately.]
This is for me? Thank you.
[It seems rude to open now. Julius is thankful nonetheless.]

p66 on February 14th, 2017 12:54 am (UTC)[ He looks nice with his hair down... but it seems like he's not going to open it? But she wants to see his reaction... ]
Um... you can open it now if you'd like.

viscontree on February 14th, 2017 01:24 am (UTC)Alright. [He opens it up shyly, careful not to damage the box.]
It's wonderful, thank you. [What a cute gift.]
Today's valentines day isn't it? [Does she want to be his valentine? IS THAT IT?]

p66 on February 14th, 2017 02:44 am (UTC)Yes...
[ She looks down, a little shy. WILL HE GET IT?? ]

viscontree on February 14th, 2017 02:48 am (UTC)[He looks down awkwardly, with his face heating up. ]
I had forgotten. I'm sorry, I don't know what to say.
This is sudden. What do you want to do?

p66 on February 14th, 2017 02:54 am (UTC)[ Does he get it??? It's hard to tell. ]
It's okay.... Um, it can just be a normal day if you want...
[ God this is awkward. ]

viscontree on February 14th, 2017 03:18 am (UTC)You're fine with that?
[That's a little, anticlimactic.]
I want to spend time with you.
[That's a little, anticlimactic.]
I want to spend time with you.
p66 on February 14th, 2017 03:23 am (UTC)Ah... I don't want to impose, that's all.
[ But if he's fine with it... ]
We can take a break from work today. What do you feel like doing?

viscontree on February 15th, 2017 01:49 am (UTC)It would be great if we could relax for a day.
I won't go anywhere without your permission. [He is fine with it. Taking a day off won't slow down the mission.]

p66 on February 15th, 2017 01:54 am (UTC)[ Ah, without her permission... ]
Okay. [ It'd be good for his health too. ] Um... can I hug you?

viscontree on February 15th, 2017 02:21 am (UTC)[What's this all of a sudden? UNSURE!]
You may. I won't say no to a simple gesture of affection.
[It makes him feel awkward.]

p66 on February 15th, 2017 02:32 am (UTC)[ 'simple gesture of affection' ]
Thank you...
[ She hugs him gently and closes her eyes. ]

viscontree on February 16th, 2017 12:57 am (UTC)Why? Is there some reason why you enjoy doing this?
[He doesn't mind, but it's almost sudden he isn't sure what to think.Julius is trying to sort out his feelings.]

p66 on February 16th, 2017 01:14 am (UTC)[ Now she's unsure. She had assumed he understood what the gesture implicitly meant, but apparently... not really. Reluctantly she lets go, though she still cant look straight at him yet.
What does she say? She doesn't know yet, so she's silent for a while. ]

viscontree on February 16th, 2017 02:31 am (UTC)Reika?
Does holding me make you happy? [He could understand if that were the case. Julius hasn't felt this emotion before, he's a bit confused.]

p66 on February 16th, 2017 02:36 am (UTC)[ That's a question easy enough to answer. ]
Yes...
[ But it seems like he probably won't get it until she spells it out for him. ]
Um... this may be kind of sudden, but [ deep breath ] Julius... I really like you.
{ #anticlimatic ]

viscontree on February 16th, 2017 03:04 am (UTC)You're right, it is sudden. May I have a moment to myself?
I need to think. [He doesn't want to suddenly say something that would distress her. Julius wants to find a way to state his feelings properly. ]

p66 on February 16th, 2017 03:16 am (UTC)[ Ah.
Well, even if he rejected her, she's fine as long as they can stay together. ]
Okay... sorry.

viscontree on February 16th, 2017 03:44 am (UTC)Don't apologize, I'm simply not sure what to do in this situation.
When someone likes you is it appropriate to say you like them back?
[He's a mess.]

p66 on February 16th, 2017 03:45 am (UTC)[ WHY IS HE ASKING HER THIS QUESTION ]
Only if you... do like them back. Um, even if you don't, I don't mind...

viscontree on February 17th, 2017 01:20 am (UTC)Then I'll say that I like you in return. I'm sorry, I'm not used to this.
[how awkward]

p66 on February 17th, 2017 01:37 am (UTC)[ Oh....
Instead of replying she moves to hug him, burying her face in his shirt so he doesn't see her cry. It's all very sudden, the way her vision blurs, so sudden that her first instinct is to hide it before her reputation is compromised - but then she realizes what exactly she has done, and it probably just worsens the problem.
Not that it's for immediate consideration, though. He's warm and smells nice; it takes up most of her focus. ]

viscontree on February 17th, 2017 02:16 am (UTC)Reika?
[He isn't sure what to do again. Julius is really confused, all he can do is return the gesture.
He wonders if Reika's okay. ]

p66 on February 17th, 2017 02:25 am (UTC)[ She's emotional, more than anything else; and her standard procedure of dealing with unnecessary emotions is to hold them in until she's able to be alone. But she's not alone here, and she trusts him especially after what he said to her.
It'll be a while before she speaks, though. ]
I missed you so much...
[ Her voice is muffled but still audible. ]

viscontree on February 17th, 2017 02:51 am (UTC)[He missed her too. It's been over a year since he last heard voice. Julius frowns after hearing her words. There isn't much he can do for her now.
Would patting her on the head help?]
