[ his hands slide up to keep hien’s at his cheeks. no duckface but it is nice. ]
Yeah, I know.
[ with a little smile.
and he does, he knows hien will answer. it’s not really about that. but he thinks the gap in understanding is from their different levels of ‘like.’ maybe, hopefully, one day hien will miss him so much and be so happy to see him that he’ll feel the need to kiss him or explode. ]
I'm used to being ignored or looked over, so others treating me differently won't affect me at all. I probably don't even know their names... so why I should I care about what they think?
[ He leans in to give Haiga a quick peck. ]
But I care about what you think, so if you want kisses, you'll get kisses.
[ the quick peck gives him +10 happiness points which wars with his instinct to frown when hien talks about being ignored or looked over. ]
I don’t want you to be ignored or looked over. [ his face doesn’t know what to settle on so he just hugs hien. why would people ignore hien? it doesn’t make sense to him. ] Does it bother you?
[ oh okay we're going back to no email notifs i see how it is dw
Hien is about to reflexively tell him that he's fine, but then he pauses to actually think about it. ]
... I don't feel lonely, because I'm used to anything and everything being by myself. But you know what I think would be nice? Hugging on the bed and sleeping together.
seeing as sleepy hien, freshly awake hien, and napping hien all make him feel a lot of things, what hien’s offering sounds like a dream come true. ]
I… I want that!
[ in fact he wants it so much his ears turn hot and red. ]
But it’s going to be crowded. [ which… is something haiga wants anyway, to be close and closer. even then he doesn’t think the itch to touch hien will fade any time soon. he’ll take all the hugs he can get. ] And - I’m probably not gonna let go.
... Let's see how it turns out first time. Then I'll think about it.
[ Though he thinks nothing will stop Haiga from crawling into Hien's bed anyway.. while Hien sleeps. This is probably the more likely outcome because Hien likes sleeping too much. ]
[ there’s always studying for exams, memorizing music sheets, and practicing his guitar or keyboard. stuff he should do - and he does want to do them, but… ]
No, I wouldn’t say busy exactly - I’ll always make time for you, Hien.
[ today has been too good to haiga. what do you mean he can end it cuddling his boyfriend in bed? ]
What do you mean not exactly... go do your stuff first.
[ He means it. Hien doesn't want Haiga to sacrifice his time for him when he could be productive. Unlike himself. Hien doesn't want to drag anyone down to his level. ]

Did you like holding my hand?
no subject
Date: 2026-04-13 01:14 pm (UTC)It seems to be what Haiga wants, so Hien keeps them there. Thinking about whether holding his hand was nice or not doesn't even take a second. ]
Yeah.
[ But he used to hold his hand regardless anyway. ]
Your hands are warm. It was nice.
no subject
Date: 2026-04-13 01:30 pm (UTC)Yours are warm, too. [ warmer than haiga’s, he thinks. ] So this is nice. Steal your hands back at anytime.
Anyway, um, routine… Can we make it a point to always kiss good morning, good night, and goodbye?
no subject
Date: 2026-04-13 01:44 pm (UTC)[ He doesn't take his hands back, because. Well. Haiga's cheeks are warm too. It's nice, since Hien lacks better words to mention. ]
Are you okay with some being public?
no subject
Date: 2026-04-13 02:05 pm (UTC)Yeah, I think so. I don’t want anyone to treat us differently, but I’m also not ashamed or anything.

Date: 2026-04-16 09:23 pm (UTC)Well… it’s your problem to do deal with since I’m your boyfriend now. Who’s the one saying all this in the first place…

… Every night?

[ obviously haiga will be down for it whenever. tonight even. but that’s probably pushing it.
he hasn’t had his fill of hien (as his boyfriend) yet, but they both have things to do so he reluctantly breaks the hug, stepping back. ]
