werites | no looky for real this time

[??????????

He opens his mouth, but then falters. IS THIS A DATE? It isn't that he doesn't want it to be a date, but he also hadn't wanted to assume. He... hadn't thought about it. He was simply spending time with Ryo out and about. He starts walking so he doesn't have to stand there looking stupid like a fish.]

If... you want it to be? [It can be a date.] If it's a date, we'll have to get some food, too.

[Which would have happened anyway probably while they were out. Wow. This is a date.]

You do look cute enough to be on a date.

You're the one who dressed me.

[ akira is calling his own work cute, wow.... but ryo will squeeze akira's arm. ]

But I've never been on one before. [ RYO IS PURPOSELY ERASING THE ONE WITH ITTO ] It does seem... dately, though. If you want it to be.

[ ryo thinks it seems dately because SHE WENT ON A DATE WITH ITTO SO SHE IS AWARE she is still erasing it ]

I had a good-looking model to work with.

[Hehe.

DON'T JUST ERASE ITTO. This is hilarious though, considering he was actually a little jealous of Itto, but refused to bring it up ever. It felt unfair? It would have been great for Ryo, but not for him. It's fine. Itto can be erased.

He does not mention any dates with Itto.]

It's a date then.

[ the way that ryo had been so annoyed that akira didn't seem jealous help me

but since this is information she does not have, ryo will just be pleased that they are on a date. SO PLEASED BY THE SIMPLEST THINGS WITH LOVE... ]

Do you want to get something to eat now then, or go to another store?

[ akira didn't have breakfast when he woke up at 3pm ]

[HELP. THEY REALLY FAILED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY WITH EACH OTHER!!!! Maybe one day, Itto will somehow get brought up, and Akira will say he had been a smidgen jealous...

On cue, his stomach gurgles loudly, and he seems mildly embarrassed by it.]

...I guess I am kind of hungry.

[He didn't have any 3PM breakfast.]

[ they talk about ryo's adventures in teyvat and ryo will be like "i was so brave by not murdering itto"

but ah. she is very clearly amused by this, and will pull out her phone to look... ]

Do you want anything specific or should we just pick somewhere nearby?

[ ryo is like more meat??? ]

[He glances around them. Yeah. More meat.]

As long as it has a little meat, I don’t mind if it’s nearby.

[Predictable.

He leans to try to see Ryo’s phone.]

Any place good? Somewhere you can have something too if you want.

[ hmmm... there are a lot of cutesy places but none of them seem very MEAT ]

... ah. Hot pot, let's go this way.

[ that is a lot of meat.

ryo will tug on akira's arm to start walking in a direction. he is carrying so many bags while ryo just stands looking cute, i hate this ]

We'll need to get dessert too. If it's a date.

[They will make hot pot cutesy by being there.

He follows after Ryo, all these bags in tow. It's fine. Ryo is beautiful and should just be standing there looking cute. It keeps... Ryo from being a biblical horror? It's good.]

We can get dessert. What do you want...? [Hmmm.] Vanilla ice cream?

[Look. He just

remembers it from last time. Sharing the ice cream. He'll sacrifice his intestinal system for Ryo's vanilla ice cream taste buds.]

[ akira sacrificing his stomach is so romantic but also ryo doesn't want to have to cut their trip short for the bathroom ]

... we can do cake or something. Maybe... crepes?

[ that's desserty, right?

but ryo finally had akira's full attention so she doesn't want to accidentally cuck the date somehow ]

[Hmmm. He gets a small grin at the suggestion.]

Okay. Crepes are good. Let's get some after dinner.

[This custardless and creamless crepes... No, he will probably be able to stand a little filling without ruining their date.

His arms are full of bag, but he still opens the door for her for hot pot. He is really out here being the sweetest thing to literal Satan.]

[ it's fine, sometimes you are forced to give up your dreams on annihilating an entire species so now you're not evil anymore. ok you're still kinda evil but it's now in a way that is actually manageable instead of being ready to snap at any second. ryo is like, oh wow the apocalypse does suck let's not do that again!!

anyway ryo is just going to walk to the host stand and just demand a table because she's rude. thankfully she is hot so the host does not mind......he just immediately leads them to a table..... actually he is very clearly trying to flirt

ryo is just 😑 because i cannot emphasize how little she cares if it's not akira ]

[Domesticating Satan with love…

The rudeness makes Akira like O_O at first because even though the twins were rude, it was all high society and not Satan, so it wasn’t this kind of rude necessarily straight away.

But then the fucker tries flirting with Ryo, and all of this sympathy flies out the window. Fuck this guy. He spends their walk to the booth like 😒, watching this guy from under his lowered brows.

When they get there, he puts the bags in one side of the booth, and then he sits with Ryo pointedly on the other side. He puts her in first too, so he is sitting on the outside and blocking her in.

Also, he gives her a kiss. 😒]

[ help

ryo is like, momentarily confused by the bag placement but catches on... after the kiss she just buries her head into akira's shoulder because this is very funny. it's at least enough to get the host to scurry off quickly but not before shooting akira a quick dirty look.

after a moment, ryo lifts her head to peer at akira. ]

Hey.

[He is out here still glaring daggers after the host, unbothered by the dirty look because he gives it back in spades.

Ryo is what gets him to shift his attention, and his expression softens. He peers back, then leans his head to nuzzle her.]

Hey.

[ this is so fucking funny and it shows ryo's willpower to keep her expression neutral instead of laughing. unfortunately akira keeps doing things that makes ryo more heart eyes, but at least now that is less of a problem than it was when they were in hell together before.

it's fine. ]

Were you just mad?

[Ryo is the worst person HELLO. Don't find his jealousy funny. He worries his bottom lip and works his jaw because he wants to say that he's fine, nothing is wrong. But that was always half the problem before.]

A little.

[He will admit it........]

[ heeeelp. well, at least he admits it. ryo will just rest her head against akira's shoulder, inwardly content about this confirmation. sometimes you are terrible. ]

Don't worry, you're the only person I will ever look at in that way.

[ ryo is so single target it's wild ]

[He twines his arm over hers so he can lace their fingers together on his thigh. He shouldn't have put Ryo in such a cute outfit as a girl......... He glares in the direction the guy left again, annoyed all over.]

Yeah, well, that guy wasn't just looking. He was flirting with you in front of me.

[This is such a pain. Because 1) fair, Ryo is very cute and irresistible, but 2) he was standing RIGHT THERE and also Ryo belongs to him.

It dawns on him that this is wildly unhinged thinking, but he's too irritated to dismiss it.]

[ it is unhinged but the worst thing is that ryo is completely fine with it and also would really love it if akira said that out loud, actually. unfortunately ryo thinks it is very sexy when akira is possessive and territorial and in general likes it when he commands things of ryo.

like, ryo might not actually do what he tells her to do, because she is terrible. there is also more serious emotions here connected to wanting to belong and be assured that their paths are connected but right now ryo is not thinking that deeply about it. horny only. ]

I didn't think you got jealous.

[He sucks his teeth quietly, shifting his hand so it's more he's flexing his fingers through Ryo's rather than gripping it.

He glances over his shoulder to make sure the waiter isn't here yet because he doesn't want to be overheard being a jealous binch.]

If he was just looking, fine. Everyone's got eyes. But he was definitely flirting with you, so yeah, it pissed me off. You're mine, and I was standing right there with you.

[ deeply wish ryo would be normal about this. instead she is just going to turn akira's head so that he is facing her again, and then is just going to kiss him.

i would say a meteor needs to hit them right now but they would survive that because of bs powers. ]

So, next time we'll make it more obvious. [ ... ] Call me yours again.

[HELPPP

He is still so annoyed with this damn guy that it takes the kiss for him to be surprised enough to realize how he's acting about it. A flush seeps up into his face. WOW.]

...You're mine. I thought it was already obvious, but I guess the marks need to be higher up on your ne--

[The waiter clears their throat, and he jerks his head around, startled. WHY IS IT ANOTHER GUY? IS THIS A MALE HOOTERS HOT POT? He sort of mildly bristles up in front of Ryo to block Ryo from view,

but the waiter only wants to get the pot set up for them on the table........ and take their drink order......... and leave menus for the meats and vegetables.....]

[ this is so fucking funny ryo is going to die. ryo is just going to grab the menu and set it out in front of them... it's mostly for akira to look at because ryo doesn't particularly care. she kisses his shoulder, although whether it's too soothe akira or if it's a reward for being funny is a mystery (it's likely the latter). ]

You can put marks wherever you want on me.

[ once again, ryo is a hole.... ]

What kind of meat do you want? All of it?

[IT'S DEFINITELY THE LATTER WHICH IS SO UNHINGED. He really shouldn't be getting used to this kind of behavior, but here he is...... unlearning literally all of the high society he spent so long adjusting to. IT GOES OUT THE WINDOW SO QUICKLY BECAUSE OF INSTINCT?

He settles his hand on her thigh just above the knee, curling his fingers gently.

Ugh... Looking at the menu doesn't help since the answer is yes. All of it. He really is regressing, damn.]

...Yeah. I want some of everything. Is there anything you want?
