[ i hate you, and i also hate that it's no inhibitions week, because that just means he doesn't move away like he had done every other time she's tried to grab hold of him.
there's a second, where it seems like he's going to lean in to kiss back
and then a large labradoodles crashes into him and he loses balance. ]
[ he's pretty good at stopping things he doesn't want to happen, honestly. people joke that he's bullyable but if he truly wants you to stop he will. make you stop. ]
[ like. emotionally and physically. people call him tsun a lot but honestly, the tsundere is only to very specific people because otherwise he is, legitimately, just an asshole. ]
But I think I need to start letting up a little here. I'm not getting anything from acting like I normally would back home. But that doesn't mean I'll just be fine with just anyone.
[ she laughs a little when the dog licks her chin. ]
That’s fine? I don’t always need affection. Relationships aren’t the same between people, and I’m fine with helping you if you need it. I don’t mind being antagonized, but you haven’t really been mean to me in a way I don’t like, so I think we’ll be fine.
Are we good?
[ because he says he won’t just be fine with anyone, but in her mind, she isn’t just anyone. ]
there's a pause, and he'll turn so he can give her an actual kiss. it's still quick, mostly because they are surrounded by dogs. who would make out in this room. ]

It's victory enough, and she blinks almost comically as Takeru is bowled over. She smiles still. ]
I think the dog likes you more than I do.
no subject
I'm sure if you pay attention to it, it'll ditch me for you.
[ dogs just want attention. ]
no subject
[ She tilts her head with a smile. ]
What if I want to pay more attention to you instead?
[ You haven't really hit on me. Is this hitting hard enough? ]
no subject
You really took it as a challenge.
[ it's a little funny, in a way, even if he's kind of bewildered. ]
What kind of attention do you want?
no subject
anyway, ]
I know you're smarter than that.
[ She already spelled it out for him. Does she have to do it again? ]
no subject
[ the dog curls up at his side. ]
I just also know what relationships are like here.
no subject
What kind of attention are you willing to give? Let's start with that.
[ He is one of the more private people here and keeps himself pretty removed. It's not hard to see that. ]
I want so many things, but I'm not going to be unreasonable, so if you want to draw your lines....
[ This is the time for him to do it before she starts taking what she can. ]
no subject
[ he's pretty good at stopping things he doesn't want to happen, honestly. people joke that he's bullyable but if he truly wants you to stop he will. make you stop. ]
It'll be annoying.
no subject
Is that a no? Or are you saying you're fine with me up until a certain point? And then you'll say no when it becomes too annoying for you?
[ Just so she's clear.
Because she thinks if Takeru is going to say no, he'd flat out say so instead of going, "I think." ]

[ he's still picky and rude. ]
So, I'll just tell you when it's not okay.

We're good.

[ Medb beams and then holds up the dog in her arms to his face, so it can lick him. ]
For the record, that's not the only thing I'm interested in. We really can just talk like we have before, too. About whatever, or whatever's pressing.
[ Typical conversation topics. ]
no subject
Mm. I didn't think you'd abandon everything else.
[ medb may be horny but she cares about other things ]
no subject
[ while keeping the dog still raised, she darts in to give him a quick kiss on the cheek. ]

no subject
She was testing the waters because he said he wasn't affectionate, but that didn't mean she couldn't be when she wanted to be. She beams at him. ]
See. You're not shit company at all.
no subject
[ he pats a dog.
dogs always make the mood better. ]
no subject
no subject
there's a small smile. ]
Mm. Let's go play fetch.
no subject
[ and then they go and presumably play fetch with the dogs?
give me another thread this week, francy. ]
