[ Surprisingly, Kokoro does like kissing. It's the least scary thing to do with someone else when your definition of making out always stops with the clothes on.
Still, she could feel the tiniest trickle of life energy drawing from him into her, warming her lips by a few degrees. Kokoro pulled back and flushed red.]
S-sorry, I didn't mean to do that.

[ He was probably just as red by the time that she pulled away, not quite sure what that feeling was before she'd stopped. He took a second to catch his breath, bringing his tongue out nervously over his lips. ]
What was that...?
[ It was a better question than why are your lips so cold, the second thought that was occupying Mista's mind. ]

I... It was a little, teeny tiny bit of your life energy. I'm really sorry. I thought I had better control over that, but I guess I don't.
[ She squeezed his hand, now properly nervous. ]
You can kiss me anywhere else, though, and it won't happen. I guess lips are still off limits.
[ Being a yuki-onna was a pain, someone please hit her with a bus so she can be a normal person next life. ]

[ He just kind of stared at her for a moment, brow raising curiously before he pulled his hand off of hers to rest on her shoulder. ]
Okay, I'm gonna really need you to explain that to me before we do anything else. If you don't mind, I mean.
[ The truth was that he quite liked kissing as well and while the chance to kiss her anywhere else might have been tempting he certainly didn't want to overstep.
Or become over enthusiastic. ]

Ah, yeah. I thought you might want that...
[Kokoro patted his hand.]
SOOO... you probably don't, since you're from Italy, so if you don't know what a yuki-onna is, that's fine. But basically, they're supposed to be a type of ghost in my country. That's what all the legends say. And sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're not. My family has them every once in a while, and surprise! I won the stupid lottery.
I'm not dead or anything, if that's what you're worried about. I'm just a little colder than most people and if I'm not careful I will literally kiss the life out of you.
[She held up both hands and waved them as if trying to assure him.] But I really try not to. It's supposed to help enhance my abilities and things, but I don't... super like it. I even had my great-whatever grandmother teach me how to control it better.
I could show you sometime, but in order to do that I'd have to kiss like 10 people to get the most energy and also not like... kill anyone.

[ Ryo didn't consider the possibility that he could have been stood up. That would embarrass most people, wouldn't it? He doesn't know if it would have bothered him, though. He's accustomed to getting the things he wants, even if he has to demand them. There's perks to being who and what he is. People tended to do things for him, sometimes without realizing that they were. Hashtag Satan Perks. ]
Oh. I guess that's true.
[ He had no idea. He took a couple of steps to be next to Mista. ]
I have somewhere in mind. Unless you are actually feeling like showing off in there.
[ He tilts his heads towards the gun range. ]

[ There wasn't any reason for him to move when Ryo stepped toward him, just barely glancing in the direction of the gun range before shaking his head. ]
I'm fine if you want to go somewhere else, I was only gonna go in if you wanted to. What did you have in mind?
[ He could have just let him lead the way but he was curious, head cocking to the side just a little. ]
I mean, unless it was supposed to be a surprise or something and you just want to lead the way.

[ He had a lot of time to think about this date. How he'd act. What he'd do. What was appropriate. All of those things were important if he wanted to seem like a perfectly normal person. He reached for Mista's arm, and grabbed it, stepping in close and looking towards him easily. ]
Well, I was thinking somewhere that'd be easy to talk a little first. You know, like food? Then maybe we can come here.
[ No surprises, then. It wasn't like Ryo often went on dates, he didn't even typically spend time in savory locations in his free time. But this was different, right? ]
Surprises aren't for everyone.

Food, yeah, that sounds great!
[ Mista hadn't expected for Ryo to take his arm, colour rising to his cheeks again as he nodded idly in response. Just a glance toward his hand, trying not to be too obvious before letting a nervous smile break out over his face.
Christ just breath and don't read into little things, it would have been easier not to analyse everything so much if he hadn't said it was a date date. He tried, though, breathing out a laugh as he shook his head. ]
I've seen a lot of shit, I'm pretty sure your definition of surprise doesn't even compare to any of it.
[ False reassurance. ]

Yeah, definitely don't know what that is but...
[ It was a lot of information for him to take in, mulling over it silently. It didn't seem like a particularly bad thing and while it had felt a little strange, he couldn't say that he felt like he was in any danger either.
Not any real danger.
He paused in his thoughts to look at his hands and then down at any other part of exposed skin he might have. No crystals. That much was good, enough for him to propose a counter for her explanation. ]
Look, I'm not going to tell you what to do but I don't mind, I'm pretty sure the Chroma will balance it out. Anything you take will probably be given back, you know? And if I feel like I'm getting weak or uhhh...crystally we'll stop. You need the Chroma and we both like kissing so...
[ S H R U G ? ]

[He raised a very valid point. Neither one of them wanted to be turning into crystal. She mulled it over for a few minutes, eyes downcast for a moment while she twisted a loose pink lock of hair around and over her
fingers. There was a chance she might hurt him, but he was almost weirdly OK with it?
Ugh, it was a lot to think about. Kokoro nodded after another long pause.]
So, you should probably kiss me then, huh?
[Well?]

[ To Ryo, it's kind of funny that he thinks that of him. A thought he keeps to himself, of course. He's glad that he is coming off as normal. Even before he knew who he was, there wasn't anyone who would accuse him of being normal. He keeps his eyes locked on Mista.
Focusing on someone while they talk is a courtesy, and being attentive is good while on a date, he guesses. But there were no doubts about this was. ]
I have just the place, then.
[ It's not too far, too. They can sit, eat, and talk. And he can do his best to get to know Mista. ]
I don't usually go on dates.
[ It could be interpreted as a compliment, right? That he made some sort of exception because he was actually interested in Mista. ]

[ There wasn't really hesitation in that tone, Mista finding himself mildly amused that he hadn't really had to try really hard to put her at ease. He hoped that was a good thing at least, hand slipping up from her shoulder to rest on her cheek as he leaned in again. ]
...just tell me if you get too uncomfortable, okay?
[ It wasn't that he really thought he was going to do anything untoward but the girls that he had met here, they were certainly different than Kokoro seemed to be. For the most part, at least. There was only a short pause after he's issued those words, his other hand coming to rest gently at the back of her neck while their lips met again. A gentle kiss, but a lingering one, enough for her to know that she could take as much as she needed. ]

Yeah, of course.
[Her hands were pleasantly cool as she held on lightly to his arms. The odd feeling of her also drawing on his life energy was fainter this time, as she concentrated on turning it down as much as possible. Her tongue darted out along his lower lip in quiet invitation. He might be helping her, but she isn't about to make the experience unpleasant. Despite the best efforts of her body to try and drain him.
Kokoro pulled back after a moment, slightly flushed.]
Still OK?
