Hmm. I mean, he's usually pretty good at taking care of himself. I bet he just got tired of that overbearing attitude of yours. You'd better watch it, Sakuma-san~. Keep that up and maybe he'll never come back?
[ ... he's joking offhandedly, but say one thing and do another, huh. not that he's going to indicate that he's actually making an effort or anything. ]
Well, like I said... he'll probably get over it with time. A dog never forgets its master or whatever.
( he wubs u kaoru-kun... thanks... oblivious, he seems cheered by the reassurance(?). )
Kuku. I appreciate it, Kaoru-kun. Though I know you don't like to make a hobby of these things, do take care to look after our little puppy as well, yes? As is the case with most small dogs, they tend to think of themselves as bigger than they are.
( rolls onto his side, extracting an arm to rest his cheek on it. )
Given we look akin to contented ducks drifting along a calm river, bright red as though targets were drawn upon ourselves, I think it's better that we rely on one another before we rely on the people here. And to avoid the latter, it's best we avoid trouble at all.
[ He's not going to open this can of worms any further, really. Laying his insecurities flat out on the table, looking vulnerable in front of Rei... that's not happening anytime soon. Not if he can help it, that is. They'll live together and lean on each other, but he's not going to become a burden — to let others see and hold hands with the fatal softness in his heart. ]
Right, right. Well, if I catch our angry little duckling waddling off the path...
[ Waddling far, it seems, given the answers he's getting and the mistakes he's making on the other end. ]
... I'll try to push him back into the river? Not that he's going to let me or anything, given the way he's always snapping at me the moment our eyes lock, but it won't hurt to give it a try in person, I guess~.
( for all the mistakes kaoru's making, rei's demeanor, croissant-like as it is, is one of someone who seems comfortable in believing kaoru will keep his word on the matter. kaoru is breezy, but not heartless; he'd trust kaoru would look after koga when asked, even if he might stumble doing it. rei can't say he's much better— he's always stumbling with koga, despite his better intentions. )
The cruelest thing a person can offer is indifference. That he snaps so vibrantly at you speaks to how vibrantly he feels toward you, yes? You've left undeniable mark on his heart, whether he knows it or not . . . Ah, should I have warned you for that?
( teasingly; sorry for the not so heterosexual words, kaoru-kun. )
Well, I'll take care to talk to him as well, when I meet him. Perhaps he's just a little pent up . . . ? I haven't disciplined him in a good while, after all.
