[ So Valentine's Day doesn't particularly mean much to Mikado, except that it's February 14th. That means he's been in Luceti for roughly three months and... things are starting to become routine. He's gotten used to the wings, meeting people who aren't human or have different standards or have strange-sounding jobs are starting to feel normal. The experiments are a nice break from the routine, but he's afraid that one day he's going to find that normal as well. He's starting to notice himself adjusting to this exotic land and it's scaring him a little bit.

More than that though, he's really homesick. Lately he finds himself comparing everything in Luceti to something from home, and just more frustrated knowing that he's not able to go home at will. The most recent experiment was just a blow to the face--seeing Anri after what felt like forever just made him realize how incomplete he feels without her around. Romantic feelings aside, he's sure that this homesickness wouldn't be so bad if all three of them were back together again.

Basically? Adjusting is a bitch. ]

...What is an "everyday" to you?

Not necessarily here in Luceti, but in your home world as well.

[ He nods. ] ...Shuri.

[ And leaning in again for another kiss, this time dropping the pillow and placing his other hand on Shuri's opposite shoulder. ]

[ no arguments here. it's all gentle and closed mouth with only the purest of intentions. but, after this event, mikado. you'll be a pro at kissing. ]

[ No kidding, man!

But since Mikado's still kind of new at this, he's not exactly sure what to do next. He pulls away but doesn't waste a second to rest his head on Shuri's shoulder, and adjusts his arms so that he holds him tighter. ]

[ better not to go too fast. shuri's read ~~gossip magazines~~ enough to know that it's a bad thing. people can burn out!

but he'll settle for snuggling. ]

[ That went pretty fast for Mikado at least, he tilts his head a little to look at Shuri as best he can. ]

...I-Is this... okay?

[ think. think. think.

he leans forward and kisses mikado's forehead. ]

I think that this is perfect.

[ And that sends his stomach into flutters and his face just goes completely red again. He snuggles closer and holds him tighter. Life is really good right now. ]

[ it really is. shuri cuddles him closer. ]
