( r6 ) talking-head: minami.

[showhost]

Minami is invited to take a seat right in front of the cameras, while the overseer smiles at them brightly and waves.

And asks them questions, of course.

They don't have to answer truthfully, but they should be aware that every single last thing they're saying might very well end up in the final cut.

Have fun!

[Huh. There is some weird parallel there, Minami is right--

Anyway Tsukasa goes as far as pulling out his phone before the reality of the situation clicks.]

Ah, wait... given you can't leave the house, this probably won't work either...

[inparfait]

Boooooo. Then let's do it after!

[ he can be patient it's only a week

looks at the future

it's only a week... ]

[aspirings]

Yes, of course!

[JUST A WEEK, THAT'S FINE

(so much can happen in a week.)]

I will show you then.

[...]

Was that your question, then? [GIFT???]

[inparfait]

Yay!!!

And it was, hehe. Do you want your gift now?

[ gift...!!! ]

[aspirings]

[He perks up like a dog about to get a treat, honestly.]

I do!

[inparfait]

[ oh he's gonna remember this for the future...

also give him a minute he needs to wiggle to get it from his pocket considering they're still flopped together. okay, there. he produces a star shaped pin from his pocket. ]

It's a star! Like you! ★

[aspirings]

[... Oh. Oh.

Tsukasa accepts it almost reverently, blinking as he does. In truth, he's the sort of person to like any gift--because gifts are a sign of thinking of someone, and what's more precious than to be in someone else's thoughts?

Minami went out on a date and brought him back a gift, and that's...

And for it to be a gift that represents him so well, too! He really can't help himself; he's always been a person who tends towards loud emotions, whether they be happiness or sadness or anger, and this is no different. So there are tears in his eyes as he processes this, holding the pin carefully in his hands.

Uuuu...]

Y-you... while you were out on your date, you thought of me...? [and thought of him being a star, at that!!]

[inparfait]

Of course I did. [ his red eyes blink, curious. he knows those aren't sad tears innately, but he also don't know what to do here. ]

I wanted to be on a date with you, so this was the next best thing. It'll be better when I get you something when we're on a date together.

[ at least he thinks it will be? he's stupid and still a bit confused. ]

[aspirings]

[It's okay, Minami, he is just dumb and emotional about everything. Big emotions always, as Minami has already noticed.

At the very least, the tears give way to a beam quickly.]

Minami!! Thank youuuu!

[Loud...... but he is also immediately nuzzling right up against Minami gleefully as he basks in the moment. Truly he is just a golden retriever at all times but especially now.]

[inparfait]

Hey!!! [ so very loud and so very ticklish. he hasn't said it in a while but he still loves it when tsukasa says his name.

his hearts beating so fast and at this point he knows why but—he holds tsukasa close, maybe so he can hear it in lieu of any words to show how happy he is in this moment. ]

[aspirings]

[That's cute... the moments when Minami is overwhelmed and has no idea how to react are quite charming, Tsukasa can't help but think. Especially because there are many moments when it feels like Minami completely throws him--so it's nice to do it in return.

He's content to remain like this, cozy and comfortable, as he turns the star pin this way and that to admire the way it catches the light.]

[inparfait]

[ cozy vibes are the best, and minami certainly isn't moving either. not even for a kiss because he's so taken with tsukasa's expression, though his eyes do flicker to the pin eventually. ]

You're gonna wear it right? You'll be even brighter and stunning than you usually are.

[ said earnestly and not to flirt like he usually does. ]

[aspirings]

[heheheheh.

Minami is so bad for his ego. This is terrible. He's already so arrogant, but of course he soaks up those words like a sponge.]

Of course I will! There isn't any reason why I can't choose a pin for myself for the ceremony.

[even if costuming and make-up do the rest for his fits for the ceremonies specifically.]

[inparfait]

Hehehe, yay!!! I can't wait to see.

[ no this is great, minami sees no problem with this. he'll just need to invest in sunscreen along with sunglasses but it's fine. ]

I've never gotten anyone a gift before but you're different.

[aspirings]

[...???]

Never?

[He's... the first person Minami's ever gotten a gift?

Hmmm...]

What about receiving gifts?

[inparfait]

Hmmm... [ he has to think about this one, but- ]

I don't think sarcastic gifts count, right? I've had wardens say them chaining me was a gift and other demons say that their claws in me were a gift. But if those don't count, then yeah I've never gotten one before.

[ he's so unbothered by this. ]

1/2

[aspirings]

[he is not so unbothered by this]

2/2

[aspirings]

Those absolutely do not count! Absolutely not!

[inparfait]

Then never! I told you that no one actually likes me, remember?

[ it's just the natural way of things! and minami doesn't mind it one bit.

even if he does like that tsukasa is obviously different. ]

[aspirings]

[Minami..........]

In that case, I'll have to make certain that your first gift is a worthwhile one...

[HMMMM]

[inparfait]

Huh?

[ sorry sometimes he is in fact, this stupid. ]

You're gonna— [ nope, nuzzling against tsukasa's chest. ]

[aspirings]

[He is........ it's okay, so is Tsukasa.

He just hums a little, tilting his head.]

Get you a gift? Of course I will. That's what you do to show people you appreciate them!

[inparfait]

...I can't even try to convince myself you're lying or just saying that.

[ he's flattered and oh so pouty. ]

[aspirings]

Good! I have no intentions of lying to you at any point, Minami. I hope you can believe in that.

[Tsukasa is not a liar to begin with, really... but he especially won't lie to the people he cares about.]

[inparfait]

I believe you. [ wholly, which is why the things he would normally tell himself fall flat. when he thinks about it, tsukasa hasn't ever done anything except be kind to him. it's no wonder he feels this way, to the point of bursting. ]

I'm gonna kiss you. [ and so he does, but instead of on the lips, it's on neck. he can't hold anymore of this affection, so they'll have to share. ]
