[You know, he was going to let Lavi have his kisses even if he lost, as long as he kept it up long enough for Kanda to feel satisfied
But he's taking it so seriously that the idea of winning and denying him is so tempting... it's sooooo tempting... WHAT'S THE POINT OF DATING IF HE DOESN'T GET TO BE MEAN TO LAVI FOR HIS OWN AMUSEMENT]
You'd better wake up faster, then. [Not that Kanda... holds back normally...... but this time he really won't]
[THAT'S NOT CALLED DATING THAT'S CALLED BULLYING? Lavi pulls a face because he feels this ominous energy shift and he's not sure that he likes it even though he's a masochist at heart. he didn't go through ALL this EFFORT to be PUMMELED BEFORE DAWN. He squeezes closer, his expression now Pleading,]
I woke up early so I could watch the sunrise with you....
[REMEMBER, KANDA??? REMEMBER???]
the way I got confused bc I was logged in as kaveh... locked out of my own post
[DISGRUNTLED VIBES... mostly because he is mollified by this and he's annoyed about this self-revelation... who would've thought his patience could be bought so easily??? Death (slightly more permanent than usual) really changed him, damn.
Either way, he stops bitching for now; once they're out far enough away from the town, he'll actually let Lavi pull ahead and pick a good spot for them, since it doesn't really matter to him where they sit. GO ON LAVI]
[Lavi doesn't take too long -- they have a sunrise to catch and he knows the limits of Kanda's patience -- eventually picking out a spot on a hill not so different from the one yesterday. This time, Lavi heads towards a tall, flowering tree, picking a spot underneath its branches. The hill itself is covered in what looks like flowers, all with their buds still tightly closed. Lavi inspects one of them, turning the bud between his fingers with obvious curiosity,]
One of the locals said they're real pretty when they're in bloom. Said that they even put roses to shame.
[though at the moment they're just closed, but Lavi has a wild imagination for a reason,]
LMFKJHDG he's just stuck in the roller coaster dimension forever
[Kanda leaves because this is reminding him too much of Tiedoll
No I'm kidding. He just follows Lavi through the field, sitting down beside Lavi once he chooses the spot he likes. It's quiet out here, enough that Kanda feels comfortable putting Mugen down beside him and leaning back on his hand instead.
He glances over when Lavi speaks up, looking at the bud in his hand before he turns his gaze back to the horizon.]
They're musk-mallows. [His random knowledge strikes again] It's probably too early for them.
[NOT LAVI TRYING TO BE ROMANTIC AND INSTEAD REMINDING KANDA OF HIS DAD
but luckily for him Kanda doesn't run away and leave this loser by himself, even though Lavi would deserve it. Instead, his eye sparkles as he looks Kanda's way, chin propped on his hand as his whole body leans towards him. It's a combination of that incessant curiosity at learning something new -- and the pull he always feels whenever he's around Kanda, the need to be close and closer yet.]
What do they look like?
[One of the nice things about Lavi is that all for his knowledge-seeking ways, he never wants or tries to be the smartest person in the room, having no interest in being a know-it-all. he's already so annoying so imagine having MANSPLAINING as a character trait.... then he'd really have to be blown up by hoshino for all eternity....
instead, he's content to look adoringly at Kanda, expectant and enjoying this rare moment of conversation on a pretty hill before a romantic sunrise view.]
Pink, mostly. Sometimes white. [Did he learn this from Tiedoll or did he learn it during his investigation into what kind of flowers he kept hallucinating... he won't say, so it doesn't matter.] They've only got one layer of petals, though. Not like roses, spread out.
[He lifts a hand, splaying his fingers as if to demonstrate what he means, even though this is not really any more helpful than his verbal description... but it's fine. If the motion makes him lean slightly to the side, into Lavi, well--that's fine too. Despite all his complaints, he's here, like this, entirely because he wants to be. If he'd truly wanted space and quiet, he would've left Lavi behind.
He does consider telling Lavi that his enthralled expression is stupid though. MUST LAVI STARE LIKE THIS!!!!]
Lavi keeps looking, this time mesmerized by Kanda's hand, the sight as familiar to him as his own. The long fingers, the curve of the wrist, the way it feels in Lavi's hand, solid and cool. He raises his palm, but instead of grabbing Kanda's hand -- he aligns his next to Kanda's, spreading his own fingers out, trying to mimic the pattern of petals, as if both of their hands could make up one flower.
He smiles at the silliness of it, at the way that it probably looks not at all like the real thing, at the sight of their hands close together, at being allowed in Kanda's space.
there isn't a noticeable size difference between their hands, maybe Lavi's fingers are a speck longer thanks to being such a tall beanpole, but otherwise they're matched in size, if not in texture. Lavi's hands are full of calluses, mostly on his fingers, which his gloves leave bare. He curls his pinky lightly around Kanda's thumb,]
Lavi props his chin up with a hand, leaning against Kanda. the sun is rising just like normal, in spite of how stupid its observers are. Lavi isn't even looking at the sunrise???? he's looking at Kanda, eye twinkling,]
[LAVI CONTINUES TO GRIN DESPITE KANDA'S STINK FACE or maybe his smile grows because of Kanda's expression... how can Lavi, long time annoyance and thorn in Kanda's side, be thwarted in the face of Kanda's displeasure -- not when he's come this far in despite of it all!!! persist despite objections!!! is that problematic -- PROBABLY!!! AND YET!!!
he reaches for Kanda's hand because Lavi will always continue to flout the rules of Kanda's personal space,]

(This is only half-true but it would've been funny)]
U BANNED URSELF ig kaveh and lavi know each other in the superhell mg universe
Lavi presses a half-amused, half=placating kiss on the side of Kanda's head.... there there you big BABY!!!!]
You can kick my ass after!
[but first, sunrise rights.....]
THEY REALLY DO unless scara destroyed sumeru and kaveh is dead
Either way, he stops bitching for now; once they're out far enough away from the town, he'll actually let Lavi pull ahead and pick a good spot for them, since it doesn't really matter to him where they sit. GO ON LAVI]
