"Heeey, you've reached Yang! Well, actually, you didn't reach far enough, 'cause I'm not here right now! But don't yang up! Just leave a message on this baby, and I'll get back to you soon enough, okay?"

[ With a snort, Yang leans down a bit to plant a kiss on his cheek. ]

When you stop sulking, I'll put you down.

action;

[masakados]

I wasn't sulking.

[WITH DIGNITY... but he's mollified by the kiss to his cheek and it shows.]

action;

[flaredo]

You're so sulking right now, demon lord.

[ Cutely, but still. ] Besides, I owe you for the time you carried me.

action;

[masakados]

[He's not sulking. But he feels he's trying to fight a losing argument, so sighs lightly and slumps a little in her arms.]

Nah, you totally could've let that one go.

action;

[flaredo]

Nah, I like keeping things fair.

[ but she'll set him down. ]

action;

[masakados]

[YES back on his feet. Naoki sighs lightly in relief.]

Now they're fair, right?

action;

[flaredo]

... iiiish. I'll catch up on the rest later.

[ Be prepared. ]

action;

[masakados]

Should I be worried?

[Does he need to watch out for her going to scoop him up abruptly...]

action;

[flaredo]

Nope. You should be pleased and grateful that your girlfriend is looking out for you.

[ Yes, that's what they're calling it. ]

action;

[masakados]

I'll try to remember to be.

[Dryly.

Naoki's arm sways, hand catching at hers. See, they can't hold hands while she's got him lifted up.]

action;

[flaredo]

[ That's a good point. And Yang instantly curls her fingers around his, giving his hand a playful swing. ]

So, am I walking you home?

action;

[masakados]

[A little laugh, and Naoki swings her hand back.]

That is what you said. [But, after a moment,] I'd like that, too.

action;

[flaredo]

Got it! Then, Your Highness, your chauffeur will gracefully and without her motorcycle, escort you safely.

[ Complete with dorky sweeping bow. ]

action;

[masakados]

[Naoki starts laughing, pulling her by the hand to encourage her closer-- so that he can drop a kiss to her cheek, and then lift up their hands to kiss her fingers.]

Then, escort away, chauffeur.

action;

[flaredo]

If my lord wouldn't seduce me like that...

[ But she's laughing, giving his hand a tug as she takes the lead. ]

action;

[masakados]

I'm just so dashing that I can't contain it.

[AS SERIOUSLY SAID AS POSSIBLE. Even if he himself thinks it's supremely lame the moment it leaves his mouth.]

action;

[flaredo]

...

[ Yeah, Yang's suddenly laughing so hard she's nearly doubled over. ]

T-that's the word for it!

action;

[masakados]

[STANDS THERE, WITH DIGNITY.

...Well, his goal had been to make her laugh so he sure succeeded. Doesn't mean he doesn't feel his cheeks starting to heat up...]

action;

[flaredo]

[ She'll stop laughing eventually... maybe. ]

Well, I can't say I don't like your confidence level... [ that was beautiful. ]

action;

[masakados]

Well, thanks to someone's laughter, I think it's been knocked down a few pegs.

[He shakes his head, mock-scolding.]

action;

[flaredo]

The air tickled me.

[ Okay, Yang. ]

action;

[masakados]

Ah, yes, of course.

[SHAKES HIS HEAD.]

action;

[flaredo]

Don't worry, Naoki. I'm still proud of you.

action;

[masakados]

Well, at least that's one of us.

[Naoki glances over at her, amused more than anything. He was so dorky that even he himself couldn't handle it...]

action;

[flaredo]

Weren't you proudly showing off your overflowing dashing manner?

[ He's a dork, but he's her dork. ]
