Xiao~! I heard that there's a place giving away neat clothes for modeling. We should make a date of it. You look good in everything you wear and we could get some treats afterwards.
[ Not really. At least from people who spend a lot of time with him. But he will be waiting for Xiao to arrive because he's pretty excited to see the other for this, tonight. He's just looking forward to a date involving free things for modeling and just because they're a couple.
How convenient. He's dressed in his typical, green kimono. It doesn't stand out a lot. But that's okay for now. ]
[ It's meant to be said lightly and not too seriously, so hopefully Venti doesn't take it as such.
Either way he did arrive when he said he would, dressed in a deep black kimono with pale indigo and teal clouds embroidered on the sleeves. It's simple and yet flattering in it's own way, suiting him quite well. There's a small smile on his face as he spotted Venti, standing out amongst the crowd in that green kimono which had him quickening his steps until he reached him. ]
You seem in a good mood. I take it you're really looking forwards to this?
Cute free things for both of us and a cute café? All wrapped up into time with my gorgeous boyfriend? There's not a thing that sounds bad about it.
[ He steps up, reaching his hands to Xiao's cheeks to place a soft, easy kiss on the other man's lips. Venti's typically pretty happy to spend any time with Xiao, so of course he's looking forward to a date idea that he had where it wouldn't involve either of them having to hand over money. After he plants a kiss on his lips, he shifts, stepping to his side to take his hand in his own. ]
[ It still was taking some adjustments, being used to Venti's open displays of sweet affections in public that even now had his cheeks flushing a soft shade of pink. He still returned that soft kiss, giving Venti's hand a small squeeze once held in his own. ]
I love you too.
[ Those little floating lights, glowing faintly of teal appear again in tandem with the happiness he feels around Venti whenever they speak of their love to any real extent. It makes his heart flutter in a way he doesn't mind. ]
I'm always happy to see you, too. We can spend time together and that alone... I never tire of it.
[ Yet he doesn't realize just how sappy he can get with his boyfriend in turn. ]
[ It's nice to see the way the effects between them appear so easily and freely. For him, seeing those had always been some sort of reassurance that the feelings were true and real. As if, regardless as to what was said - no one could hide true intent that was made so real.
But with Xiao, Venti knows the things he says and does are real. He knows the other's feelings for him are real. The appearances of the effects tell everyone else that their bond is exactly as it appear to be.
He walks with Xiao, hand in hand, and brings Xiao's knuckle to his lips, kissing it a they walk. ]
I love when you say things like that, too.
[ He's sappy at his core. ]
I know you won't. I make sure things never get tiring or boring.
[ Over time he's gotten better with not flustering as much, the kizuna effects speaking more honestly than he'd ever be able to. Mostly in the way that once Venti had kissed his knuckles, it had a soft green tinging his golden hues noticeably while he smiled gently in turn. ]
Then I will make an effort to say them more frequently.
[ Nobody ever got this level of softness to his voice when he spoke, or could see the inherent happiness that was written all over Xiao's face every time he got to look at Venti. He truly was deeply in love with him. ]
You've done a good job of that so far. [ He paused, and for a second it looked like a small cecilia flower materialized in his hair, done up in shades of white, blue and a hint of teal. ] It's something I find endearing about you, Venti.
That looks really cute on you. [ Venti reached up with his hand not-holding Xiao's and brushes the hair near the flower. ] Say them all you want. All the time, only sometimes.
[ Because it's always a treat to hear Xiao be soft and kind with him. And he'll treasure each and every word the other offers up. ]
We're near the shop. If we model for photos - they'll let us bring something free home.
[ Venti had done some snooping. And then he leans in to Xiao, whispering. He sounds like he's teasing, but it's just a little. ]
The thing we get for free...might be something we'll like to see on each other, too. When we're home alone, I mean.
[ He's ... sparkling at the idea. He lets out an Ehe - as if that further makes his point. ]
[ Another flower had appeared? This seemed to be more common lately, but he wasn't minding it much when Venti said things like that about them each time they appeared. ]
Thank you.
[ Xiao allowed his own hand to grasp Venti's before it drew back, so he could press a kiss to his knuckles sweetly. A simple gesture but he didn't hold back any. Why should he? ]
I'll keep that in mind.
[ Initially upon hearing the 'model' part, he frowned slightly but never got the chance to voice his protest when his boyfriend added that next part which had his cheeks gaining the slightest touch of pink to them. Even if he's trying to keep his expression calm and level. ]
Oh. I would not be against that if that ends up being the case.
[ Ehe. He doesn't want the lingerie to be seen as a bribe, but it is definitely a bribe. He loves the cute pink in Xiao's cheeks. Of course, to be fair, he loves everything about Xiao. It's just that the pink adds an extra cute appearance to Xiao's features. Plus, it means that he had some sort of impact on him. ]
Maybe they'll even let us help each other pick something out. Of course --
[ He giggles. ]
You look good in everything. [ And he stops. ] We're here.
[ He pulls Xiao in close, hugging his arm. ]
Thanks for coming with me. There's no one else I could imagine doing this with.
[ Well it's a bribe that worked quite well all the same.
He just has to remember not to let his mind wander too much, wondering what kind of things they'd have to pick from and hoping they could pick something out. Venti would look good in just about anything with his delicate frame and beauty, after all. ]
That's MY line. I don't think there's anything you've looked bad in.
[ He sighed, looking up at the place in question and then down to Venti where he shifted as to place a light kiss to his lips affectionately. ]
There's no need to thank me, Venti. I don't mind coming with you for something such as this.
[ He's literally sparkling because of the compliment. He loves hearing it from Xiao. He know Xiao loves him. He knows Xiao finds him attractive, but there's still something to be said for hearing him offer up such a compliment. He loves to hear from Xiao how much the other cares for him because it's important to him that he always does.
He chases the kiss, placing a couple of soft, chaste kisses on Xiao's lips immediately following the other's starting it. He moves, shifting to open the door so that they can go inside and get the outfits. ]
Hello, my love. I got a message from the NRL that we can get a house. And I think we should take them up on it. We'll have more space for a lot of things. Or if we simply have someone staying over the night.
You did a cute face for me. I think I love you more now than I did before you sent this message - ehe.
But I will let them know, and if you want to give your stamp of approval on the place, I'll show you before I settle. After all, as far ass I'm concerned, it's yours, too.
I just thought I would try it out. Does me making 'cute' faces for you really make you that happy, Venti?
I'm not busy right now so perhaps you could show me soon? I appreciate you taking my thoughts into consideration all the same, knowing it would be a shared space of ours.
Something like that... being for fun? I still fail to understand why but I suppose if that's what they find in enjoyment in then there isn't harm in it.
Happy Birthday to the love of my life~! (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡
I'd love if you could cut the day short. I even have a birthday treat for you.
[ Attached there is going to be several photos that Venti has taken of himself - one in the mirror, and others are selfies where a good view of the outfit is. He's wearing a cute little lingerie set. ]
Thank you, Venti. ♡ I typically would not celebrate the... day of my birth if I were not here but it makes me happy to see you remembered it.
[ He'd of course sent that text off, having a break in things at work for the moment. That's about when Xiao saw the pictures and his whole face flushed a deep red, all the way to the tips of his pointed ears.
That's when a second text follows. The way his texting style changed is telltale enough to his very real embarrassment here. ]
It's a secret! It wouldn't be a good surprise if you knew that I got it, right?
[ And another selfie-style picture, but one hand is at the waist of the panties, tempting to drag it down. Not too far, he doesn't want to spoil the whole thing. ]
The sooner you do, the sooner this is all yours~
[ And another selfie. This one - his hand has dipped into the panties itself. The texting is clearly a little sloppier. Sorry, he's one-handed now. ]
[ Oh Archons. His eyes widened when he saw that first image, and it's enough to have his throat feeling dry with his whole body seeming to warm up. But there was another text... and another picture. ]
I won't keep you waiting long.
[ That's the best Xiao could manage, immediately collecting his wits enough to find his boss and letting them know he wasn't feeling well and that he'd be heading home. Thankfully they understood and he was excused, so he made sure to leave the building to get a breath of fresh air.
Ducking into the nearest alley, one hand brushed fingers against the ring Venti had gotten him and he disappeared from the alley and then re-appeared just outside their bedroom door. Because where else would he be? When he opened the door, the flush of color along his cheeks was quite visible. ]
Venti.
[ One word could truly hold so many emotions, but it was the way gold eyes looked more teal and the heat within them that spoke more than any words could. ]
[ He had a feeling if nothing else, those last two photos would work the best and give him exactly what he wants. Xiao was here now. There was a sudden appearance of illusions of flowers floating near him the moment Xiao was close. Xiao would see the gold speckles in his eyes the moment he stepped into the room. Venti was dressed in the cute lingerie set, of course. In person, it's much easier to see the sheer details in the lace. There's small peaks of skin, and the fabric isn't quite as opaque as the photos may have led Xiao to believe. The way his name is said sends a chill through him.
Venti takes a couple of steps forward and wraps his arms around Xiao's, leaning his head onto the other's shoulder. He brushes his lips over his neck. ]
