she sinks so that he can't see her face and instead is just going to hide her expression in the crook of his neck and she's never coming out oh my goooOOOOODDDDDDD
[ for once, he doesn’t immediately try to point out her blush - not because she’s hidden her face, but between the stunning difference of this kiss and all the rest, and hearing lili say his name like that, words fail him. he’d like to hear that again, he thinks, but also... ]
Kara… huh.
[ lili has never called him “kara” before. until now, it’s always been his full name - and normally, that’s all he would allow, outside of the date swords. somehow he never considered it, with her.
how do you explain that you literally didn't have the breath or brainpower to manage your boyfriend's full multiple syllable name after the first time you made out, how do you put that into words
maybe you don't
maybe lili just lets her arms wrap around him instead as she whines uselessly, but refuses to lift her face so that the words are still muffled against him?
maybe that's what she does instead of doing anything remotely intelligent at all]
[ he doesn't fight it as lili tries to just bury herself in his shoulder or whatever the heck she's doing. it's... kind of cute, kind of funny, so all he does is shift here or there to accommodate her, the corner of his mouth turning up into a slight smile.
softly, he says: ] You know I can't hear you like that.
[this is the worst possible thing because he's so sweet about it too and she has no idea how she managed to get so lucky to have a boyfriend who will put up with her when she's being stupid too
but she'll. try? she'll try. it takes her a second to even vaguely pull her face away even if she can't manage to meet his eyes. her heart is trying to escape her chest.]
[ it's fine, if she can't meet his eyes. he's gotten used to this shy lili, the one who realizes her boldness and immediately flusters every time, and he loves to tease her for it - but not this time. ]

he thinks he might like that, too, actually. ]

I didn't mean to—
If you don't...
[ . . . . ]
If you minded it, I won't... say it again...
no subject
I don't mind. You can call me Kara, if you want.
no subject
Really?
Ah - Kara... then...
[he literally said that he's hers and somehow she still thinks this is new and flustering, i hate it]
no subject
Why would I mind, if it's you?
no subject
W-Well it was just only Tsurumaru who would call you Kara-bou so....
[she didn't want to assume!! she could! that's a bond forged through a lot more time than they've had together!]
no subject
[ notably: the only swords he would call his friends, haha! ]
So I don't mind if you do it, too.
