Takuto Tsunashi has posed:
"WAKO-CHAN! WAKO--" comes Takuto's voice blooming through the rice-paper-walled house before the door to the backyard whangs shut, and then there's the slap of house slippers on wooden floors a second later and Takuto's voice again. "WHERE ARE YOU I got snacks they're on the table and I have to TELL you something--"

Wako Agemaki has posed:
It's probably good, in this instance and many others, that rice paper walls do not do a ton to muffle sound from carrying through the house. "What? What happened?" Wako's voice calls from somewhere in the depths of the mansion. "Hang on--"

Soon the *tmp-tmp-tmp* of slippered feet on the floor announces her arrival, and Wako's blonde head pops around the edge of a doorway. "There you are! What's got you all excited, Takuto-kun?"

Takuto Tsunashi has posed:
Takuto sees her and he's already running so he twists in mid-run and hurls his momentum Wako-wards, sliding to a stop in front of her and laughing. He's wearing his green STAR*DRIVER varsity jacket and he's a little pink in the face, which could be from the cold, but he's not cold when he reaches for Wako's hands and takes them up in his.

"I went into the changing room for the onsen to give Sugata his ningyo-yaki and crepes from the new vendor down the street, and he told me, he told me--"

The redheaded boy takes a deep breath and then does his best impression of Sugata being shut-off and nervous, which doesn't look like anyone else being like that, and he goes, "We need to talk."

And then he puts his hand on Wako's sleeve and holds up a finger, then takes a step to one side and does an impression of himself like ten minutes ago. "About what?"

And then he does Sugata again, taking a step back and putting on the Sugata Aspect: "Our relationship." He swallows. "I... owe you an apology."

And then Takuto's grabbed both Wako's hands again and says urgently, "He was spooked because I'm pretty! He wasn't breaking up with me!"

Wako Agemaki has posed:
"He said what?"

It's probably only Takuto's forestalling hand on her sleeve that keeps Wako from marching off that instant to confront Sugata about what does he think he is doing.

Her eyes only get bigger at the second Sugata impersonation, but by that point she's rooted in place even before Takuto grabs her hands again and breaks out with the reassurance that, maybe, he probably ought to have led with.

"Takuto-kun..." She takes another second or two to process that whole emotional roller coaster. Finally she lets out a heavy sigh. "Gosh, he would do it that way, wouldn't he? But what do you mean, he was spooked?" Her eyes search his face, urging further explanation.

Takuto Tsunashi has posed:
Here the tall redheaded boy nods emphatically. "He did do it that way, so yeah. But yeah it was okay! He just thinks you and I are really hot and he was freaking out over what to do about it? And I guess he thought he could talk it through that way when all he really needed to do was--"

Takuto's red eyes are bright, and he's keeping in so much energy right now he looks like a firecracker, and he's grinning, and then he bends further down and kisses Wako right on the lips.

Wako Agemaki has posed:
Wako freezes. Her eyes get very big. Her face turns nearly scarlet.

"Takuto-kun!" It's half laugh and half yelp as she goes up on her toes to throw her arms around him. "Geez...! Sugata-kun put you through a roller-coaster, so you needed to do the same thing to me, just to be fair?"

Her voice becomes slightly muffled, because her face is currently smushed against his chest. "I think I understand what happened now, but... you could use a few more words, you know."

Takuto Tsunashi has posed:
Arms folding around Wako, Takuto himself practically folding around Wako to hug her all the way back, that head smushed against his chest can feel him laughing gently as much as hear it. "Sorry," he says, not sorry at all and not bothering to try sounding like it. "I'm an illustrative kind of guy, I guess."

And then his head's bent down so he can put his face in her hair, and his heart's beating faster, and he can feel Wako in his arms, you're so precious and pretty and giving and wonderful and stubborn and capable and strong and-- and he realizes he was speaking that last part aloud, and he hugs Wako tighter.

"I guess that's the words I have," he murmurs, face invisibly matching his hair, right now.

Wako Agemaki has posed:
They're both a pair of tomatos, but it's fine, nobody's looking. Wako laughs and squeezes Takuto a little tighter. "I love you too," she says, warm and fond, "'illustrative' and all. You shine so bright, you know that? You make everything around you brighter and clearer."

She risks shifting to turn her face up towards his, grinning irrepressibly despite the lingering blush. "No wonder poor Sugata-kun's been beside himself~"
