week two | dates
You worked up your courage and asked someone out on a date! Good job!
Now you have to hope the producers are kind re: where they send you.

anyway. no it's not bugs! it's—something that's been flitting around in his head since the last interview. which is annoying, because minami really doesn't do thinking on things, he just acts on them. and it's come up again, right here, right now for no particular reason but maybe that makes it the perfect time.
he tugs tsukasa a bit closer but moves in himself, standing up straight and going up on his toes a bit. red fixates on honey, his free hand cupping the other boy's cheek loosely. ]
You! [ is that warning enough because it's a miracle he says even that, and without an ounce of reservation he presses their lips together. a kiss that will absolutely linger if tsukasa doesn't crumple on the spot. ]
1/2??? i don't have the icons for this situation
Minami has saved us from a lot of headaches just by shutting up Tsukasa and making sure he can't make noises or yell.
Given that his mouth is currently occupied. And that's... short-circuiting his brain a little bit.
But he's a star!!! A kiss should be nothing!! He... could've kissed tons of people on stage for his roles!
(He has not. Kissed anyone on stage. But. He could've!!)
Oooouugh thank goodness the cameramen didn't follow them up here. What if Saki saw this?!?!?!? That would be so embarrassing.]
2/2
(Aaah, he's really flubbed this whole host thing, hasn't he?)
--it's a surprise, but not a bad one.
Shockingly, he neither collapses nor leaps away immediately, but he doesn't linger, either--he takes just enough time to process the situation before he pulls back, finding his back pressed against the railing. He spares a quick look over his shoulder at that (... okay, tall enough that he probably won't fall, that'd be embarrassing), and then clears his throat, meeting Minami's eyes.]
............
[oh my god Minami you shut him up, that's incredible. He needs a minute to figure out what to say. His singular brain cell is working so hard right now.]
no subject
[ he says that in what could be a teasing way, but isn't. his expression is perfectly content, impulse satisfied. ]
1/2
[Oh, good, Tsukasa's still here.]
I was just...!
[?!?!?!]
2/2
He drags in a deep breath, and then another, and then straightens, clearing his throat.
And as things kind of... fall into place, he can't help but arch an eyebrow at Minami, head tilting.
This is not the most important thing that just happened, and yet he can't help himself.]
I didn't realize you can be that cheesy.
[THE LINE ABOUT IT BEING HIM THAT MINAMI SEES... BEFORE THE KISS... that's right out of one of Saki's shoujos!!]
no subject
he's just cursed with being from an otome. ]Say that again. [ and then he's gonna go in for another kiss because excuse me he deserves this one. ]
no subject
Anyway, Minami goes in for another kiss and Tsukasa just reaches out..... and squishes Minami's cheeks between his hands. His turn!! To do the cheek squish. I mean, if Minami lets him, of course.]
Ah, hang on. I'm still processing.
[Well. At least he's honest. Then again, it's Tsukasa. He always says what he's thinking.]
Hmm... well, I feel like I should ask you if you're sure, given you have a Perfect Match here, but I know you do what you want regardless, so...
[Minami going for it is because he's sure! Tsukasa is perhaps really messing up the show, but. Well. He can think about that later.]
Right then! [He lets go. Situation... processed! Mostly.] I'm ready this time. [probably.]
no subject
You— [ he has no idea what he's even saying so in another miracle, tsukasa has shut minami up, yay! he does know what he wants and his words aren't working so another kiss it is. this one has a bubble of laughter to it because this is ridiculous in 999 ways. ]
1/3
Admittedly, Tsukasa has no idea what he's doing, but there's something about the way that it's clear Minami's laughing even as he leans into that kiss that it's not bad.
He came here to put smiles on everyone's faces, so... even if there's a lot now to figure out in regards to the show (even more than before,,,), it can't all be bad, right?
Besides, on top of all of that... he hasn't really spared much time to think about what he wants out of this, has he? Not that that's a surprise; he's on the job, he's being a star, what more could he ask for?]
2/3
now that he is thinking about it.
Does that mean... wait, that totally means...
He's been just blundering forward without thinking too hard about things, like he always does, but--he's happy to be here like this too, isn't he?]
3/3
[Anyway, he straightens with a jump alongside his excited exclamation, because that's the sort of person he is--dramatic, enthusiastic, and loud.
However.
They are right up against the railing, and listen, I can't not make this as stupid as possible.
So his excited movement means he's pushing right up against that railing, and... well. It's only waist height.
... So his grin starts to turn a little panicked as he topples.]
no subject
he doesn't realize until they're both tipping forward that they are, though his instincts do kick in. late.
this is fine.
he's a demon, something like this is nothing.
it's easy to make sure that he's the one who takes the brunt of the impact and their fall is softened a bit by the foilage they fall through and into on the ground. this means tsukasa is now on top of minami but that's not even really registering with him right now. ]
Hey. Wait until I figure out how to fly before you do that. [ he doesn't ask if tsukasa's okay but it's clear in his eyes and how he cups his cheek. ]
no subject
His second, right on the heels of the first, is that he has been trained for this. Not so much a fall like this, backwards and without any safety netting or mats, but he knows how to fall from a height. They've been doing their own stunts at the Wonder Stage from the beginning, after all.
But--
This is also the first time he's falling in someone else's arms, and he's not able to move or right himself, and his instincts are exactly the same as Minami's in this moment (turn, find a way to take the fall, protect the person he's with), but Minami is, of course, far stronger.
So they fall--and Minami lands first, breaking both of their fall, and Tsukasa is stunned for a moment, catching his breath from being winded and also processing that he's not hurt at all, but--]
A-ah! Minami! Are you hurt?!
[He'd be louder but he is still wheezing as he catches his breath, so. Small favors.
(Sir also not processing how they've landed is here too)]
no subject
actually he probably definitely has some minor injuries but they'll heal pretty fast, and it's not like he'll mention them anyway. he's used to working through pain far greater than this and it barely registers.
his eyes are still searching are you okay but once again he's allergic to asking this question on a fundamental level and there are so many things going on in his brain right now. his hand lingers on tsukasa's cheek as the rest of him relaxes into the dirt. ]
no subject
Namely that he's not sure he buys that non-answer, so he's scrambling off immediately to sit next to Minami instead, peering closer with a frown.]
You didn't answer my question... are you hurt?
no subject
[ he sits up too after shaking his head a little, rattling his one braincell around and trying to get it to restart. ]
What 'bout you? [ fine, he'll ask as long as those words don't come out of his mouth word for word. (because he wants to know in spite of his reflexes fighting each other right now). ]
no subject
Tsukasa just... hangs his head, breathing out a deeeep sigh.
Phewwww...]
I'm fine! I'm fine... [whew.] Sorry! I should have been more careful.
[He knew the railing was there his brain cell just. Short circuited. The single brain cell.]
no subject
If you're sorry, make it up to me. [ cheek poke.
he's definitely pouty as he says this because his mood sure is Something and the easiest way to fix that he's decided is to keep on keeping on. ]
no subject
Make it up to him... well, he knows Minami likes having things to look forward to, so--]
We could go on another date next week?
no subject
'Kay. But I'm gonna kiss you again now. [ he grabs tsukasa's collar, pulls him in aggressive, even as the kiss is anything but, gentle and warm. he wants to feel it again, because he's pretty sure he felt tsukasa lean into the second kiss and his mind is stuck there because he wasn't done processing it when they both succumbed to their singular braincell. ]
no subject
He's so unprepared for it that he does squawk when Minami drags him into that kiss, before it's smothered into silence.
He can't help but think--the crew is probably there, if not almost, concerned by their fall and the ruckus. But at least Minami tried to warn him. That's progress.
Anyway, he has had his realization. It knocked them off the balcony, but he sure had it. So you know what? Worry about everything else later. He's Tsukasa Tenma, the leader of WonderlandsxShowtime, and a soaring star reaching ever new heights. He's got this. So he takes a moment, brief but lingering, to kiss Minami back--he doesn't want it to be brief, but he also knows he can't drag it out, either.
Because in the next moment, he's pulling back to stand up, dusting himself off to assure the gathered crew they're totally fine, you can put the cameras and the med kits away, relax, relax--! They can be left alone now, really, it's fine...]
/2
his heart skips a beat.
demon's hearts don't jump like this and demons also don't flush from their cheeks to the tip of their pointed ears. that realization hits on top of all the other things he's feeling right now. ]
/3 i lied
it's nice and warm. it's gross and itchy. he likes it. he hates it. he can't breathe. he feels like he's breathing for the first time since that day.
he has no idea what to do with himself but he's pretty sure—the laughter fills in those gaps and as much as he wants to rip his heart out from his chest, he also feels like he really could fly if they fell from the balcony again.
he's fine, he's fine, he's better than fine which is why he doesn't know how to deal with it. ]

You can go away now. Please~.
