[Characters passing by the bulletin board may notice a new message tacked to it!]

Drinking party at the bar at 8pm. Under 21 only. Adults will be persecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Fun and games included, party hats optional. Don’t be late!

[Sure enough, there’s a gathering of teens (and maybe some not-so-teens?) to be found in the bar! While the posting mentions this is a teen only event, adults are in fact allowed as long as they are cool. OOCLY please be aware there are going to be teens drinking alcohol and possibly smoking! Also additionally, please let the teens/players have fun; again, adults are allowed but only if they’re cool enough to play along without snitching them out!

All party game top levels are going to be made under Ahito’s account but please assume ICly that Akira instigated/explained them! Once the game toplevels are up you can also post your own toplevels to mingle freely if you like IDK IT’S A PARTY HAVE FUN]

( Kisses along his knuckles, a vow along his ring finger - Ginger spoils him so terribly, he doesn't know what to do. )

... Thank you. ( Ginger's lips are at his fingers, so he instead presses a kiss to Ginger's temple. hehe ) ... Thank you, for protecting our heart.

( It means the world and more to him that Ginger would protect himself in this way - because, it's true; should Ginger's heart bleed, Mika will bleed with him, too. Mika knows he has to learn how to protect himself somehow, too, in turn.

The remark on the dare surprises him slightly - but the kind words curve his lips. He wonders faintly if this is a dare from Solomon, but he banishes thought of other people from his mind right now. )

... That'll make the two of us, alone together.

( He'll part one set of their linked hands - the ones Ginger isn't kissing - so he can take better advantage of Ginger's lowered height - he brushes back his hair, just a little further than the temple, and presses a kiss there. The hair falls back over it, as if hidden, for Ginger only. )

... Is the dare to talk about you? Because I have more to add to that.

( Another kiss at the top of his head with his hair brushed back. )

You're so sincere. Your feelings are so vibrant, I can almost taste them. ( Another kiss, another place. ) You're super cute and funny, and you're really, really thoughtful. You're fun, too. ( Kiss!! ) Everything is fun with you. You are patient, devoted, and resilient— more than anyone I know. And I love you so, so much that I don't want to let you go back.

( Kiss...! )

I want to keep you here so I can keep listing things I like about you.

Just a dare to say something kind about myself. I… struggled with it, but you make it so easy.

[ Once he would have said: you’re too good to me. It’s still true, but not as true as… ]

You’re so good to me.

[ Low and full of emotion.

Minor improvement, he thinks.

Mika’s lovebomb has him flustered, a light flush dusting his cheeks. He’s so loved that it makes him happy in that squirmy uncomfortable way - largely good. His heart is so full he doesn’t know what to do, torn between smiling until his cheeks hurt and blinking back a little wetness around his eyes.

Every kiss feels like a scattering of stars, each one a wish from Mika for his happiness and he’s - he’s so grateful. He turns into the last kiss, from pink cheeks to open lips, long and deep and thoroughly showing Mika how much he wants to be close - closer.

He wants to crawl into Mika’s arms and stay there because Mika has the right idea. They should just stay here - together. He could whisper all the things he loves about Mika, too - endless, soppy things. Sugary sweet servings that embarrass and thrill them both. ]

… Let’s go home soon? I don’t know how much longer I can stand being across the room from you.

[ He wants to give Mika more time and space to socialize, but his Mikaela reserves are running low. And every time someone refers to Mika as Mikaela, it startles him slightly - he wonders how close they are to his boyfriend. ]

Come find me when you’re done, sweetheart?

( Say something kind about yourself... yeah, that's hard. But he's happy Ginger found something, even if it didn't come easy (he thinks this, not knowing Solomon helped some). If anything, Mika thinks he doesn't do good enough - it's just that Ginger's never been soaked through with the love he deserves.

He kisses Ginger back just as deep, as if drinking up his sweet lips, his sweet, flustered cheeks, like he doesn't want to leave any left for anyone else - for his greedy eyes only, please. Ginger tastes too good for him to want to share. It's that childish side of him, the part that slowed to a gradual stop, from when he was brought into Sanguiem until he was turned, no matter how much Mika's spent the past two years teaching himself that he's undeserving - the part of him that's always elated, whenever Ginger wants to stay just as clinging, too.

When Ginger parts - when he calls him sweetheart, the warmth in his chest reaches his cheeks. "Sweetheart" isn't any schmoopier than anything else Ginger's called him, but it feels almost reserved for another type of person - not something he'd ever have thought he'd be allowed. That he has to resign from parting from Ginger is a trial. )

... Mm. Okay. It'll be soon.

( And here he pulls in again - this time, mouth close to his ear. There is a slight air of mischief this time - like a stage whisper, but it really is meant for only Ginger. )

... If you can think of more nice things to say about yourself, I'll do something special for each one you come up with, when we're alone again. Okay?

( (Of course, Ginger will still get at least one "something special" even if he can't think of a single one. It's a game he's rigged to win. But shhhh.)

And then Mika will pull back, gently releasing Ginger again. hehe )

... See you. Love you.
