I'll consider it another achievement, then.

[ he brings his hand to the back of emet's head, petting his hair ]

[He 'hrmphs' once for good measure. Someone probably should teach him ba-humbug for the holidays.

But he does squeeze him tighter trying to bask in his warmth.]

You best have not any other plans today. I'm keeping you right here for myself even if you do get bored.

Well, if I do get bored, then make sure to entertain me. I do still have a language to learn.

Though I find it difficult to imagine I would, when I have the most beautiful man I've ever had the pleasure to lay my eyes upon staying right here in my arms, and asking me to keep him company.

[ he manages to say it all with a straight face, and without blushing, but definitely expecting that to be a critical hit ]

[It absolutely is and he punches him in the shoulder weekly, hiding his face as if that would do anything for the blush.

So he retorts with the wittiest comeback.]

Shush. Don't think I won't embarrass you in front of Taisho.

[ he's so clearly satisfied with the reaction, and he smirks, smug as always ]

That wouldn't be wise, Shu would give you a monologue and nobody wants that.

Not if I scandalize him first with enough time to escape and never step foot back in.

[Grade A plan. Flawless. Without fault.

Though he does eventually lift his head to kiss him, deep and possessive. A small way of saying thanks for the complement earlier.]

[ Oh. That wasn't expected or the goal, but he's certainly not complaining. There's a pleased sigh against his lips, and his hand moves down his back, fingers tracing idly over it as he kisses him back with just as much heat.

He really can't get enough of him either ]

[He is smirking as gives his lips a quick peck after the kiss.

He ponders for a moment as he settles back down in his arms.]

You have Vanya's book memorized, don't you?

I do. Why the question?

Translate it for me in my own language. I'm too content basking in your presence to come up with a proper lesson plan so this serves well enough.

I'll answer any grammatical questions and will correct it.

[ he'd complain that that's not a beginner's task, but then again, he does like the challenge, and he'd feel insulted by anything else ]

You know, I'm attached to that book but it isn't exactly a fun tale to retell and translate.

Perhaps not as a whole.... but I digress, a poor choice on my part. I know not what else you have committed to memory.

So I suppose you will simply have to surprise me.

It's fine, I wanted to complain about the request and that was the easiest one to complain about.

[ he leans in to kiss him again, brief and soft ]

Vanya's book will be as good a choice as any. Just, you know. Awkward.

[He brings a hand up to his cheek brushing with the back of his knuckles.]

Or I could simply claim you, though your studies in logistics would be woefully lacking for the evening.

[ the sweet gesture is enough to make his heart melt, but of course the words spark his interest ]

We could combine the two. A reward for everything I get right.

One, you would get everything right to spite me, and don't think for a moment you wouldn't. Secondly, well I feel if I should reward you regardless for the soothing you have brought me.

[Running his thumb along his bottom lip.]

You won't have these sharp teeth and the ability to turn into a bat forever, thus I feel we should utilize them. And what do desire to use your limited gift for?

[ his eyes are immediately drawn to Emet's lips at that, and he hums, thinking about the question ]

I doubt my ability to turn into a bat will come in play here, but perhaps we can put my fangs to good use. Do you have any plans for them?

My creativity does happen mostly on the spur of the moment.

As does mine, but do turn into a bat. I would like to see it even if it outside the current plan for activities.

[ there's a little laugh at that, and to be honest he has been enjoying being a bat. And since he's asking, he'll turn at that, flying over to perch on his shoulder immediately after. When he speaks, Emet will hear his voice directly in his head ]

If you just wanted to see it you should have asked before.

[He will hold out his hand near his shoulder for him to perch on.]

Oh, that is delightful. Hearing your voice like that. And truthfully, it just came to mind.

[ he'll move onto his hand as soon as it's offered ]

It has been a highlight of this game. Along with your company, of course.

[He'll hold him carefully and bring his other hand up to stroke his head and wing softly with a finger.]

I am glad you are getting quite a large amount of enjoyment from this game. I do believe others are as well. 'Tis good to see the cheerful faces.

And you are rather charming as a bat. Though I do find you favorable in any form you wear.

Something else we have in common, then. I do find you favorable in any form as well.

[ he's definitely moving into that touch, clearly enjoying it ]

You'll have to forgive me for not calling your physical form beautiful as freely as you say the words to me. I do tend to get caught up in the vitality, the radiance, and the allure of your soul. A distraction, if you will.

[Kissing the top of his head as he stands and heads towards the balcony.]

Well, you should enjoy the form rather than standing and sitting. The freedom of flight. To not be tethered by gravity's influence.

If you're inviting me to fly with you, I should warn you that your wings are much bigger than mine.
