Teenagers Scare the Living Shit Out Of Me etc. etc.
[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]

I love you, Phil. And I wanna stay with you, for as long as you'll have me. [ As if to say Phil has the option of letting go of his hand, if he ever needs to. One concession to the reality of their situation. ]
no subject
anyway congrats boys, love wins as usual.]
no subject
Phil opens his mouth like he's trying to say something, only no words come out, just a soft sound that gives way to a hitched sob as the dam finally bursts for real. The tears now aren't quiet, but they also aren't distressed, merely the product of being emotionally overwhelmed. Because, much like no one had ever told Phil he was pretty before, no one has ever said they love him before, either.
Embarrassed, he brings his hands up to try to cover his face as though that will somehow be able to hide the fact that he's crying.]

My goodness, does Day have a kink for tears?]

Day reaches over with his hands to try and wipe at Phil's tears, and leans down a little to press a kiss to the top of his head. He means it. ]
no subject
[He realizes belatedly that it probably looks like he's upset with the entire idea given how hard he's crying right now-- that in a way he might seem like he's the one doing the rejecting when in reality that couldn't be further from the truth. There's a part of him that's still afraid to believe this is all real... until he feels Day's lips brush his hair, putting the last remainder of his doubts to rest.]
... I love you too...
[He'd never had the courage to say those words either to Mileena or to Ix. But somehow now, in this moment? He finds they aren't difficult to say at all.]

Even though he's been trying to be better, some things won't easily go away in two months after years of bracing oneself against disappointment. Keeping his expectations low is second nature by now; bracing himself for the moment his hand is let go is a habit; knowing he will not be chosen is simply as inevitable as endings. Like how he's the morning mist in most people's lives, he was ready to keep loving quietly, in his own way, without expecting anything in return.
But things like this—the people who have thanked him for his efforts, showed him care and consideration, and now someone saying they love him back—remind him that here, he is more than just an agent of destiny. And maybe this is why Day laughs so joyously, almost like he could cry too, as he wraps his arms around Phil and pulls him into a hug.
Yes, someone loves him too. He is not the morning mist. ]

Maybe it's selfish. No, it almost definitely is. But this is something that's his and his alone, and he wants to take it and hold it tight and never let it go for as long as this world sees fit to allow him that much. And for once? He delights in this selfishness, in this thing he desires so much for himself that he would fight for it until his dying breath.
Because is it really selfishness when Day is holding him just as tightly?]
no subject
He leans down to whisper in Phil's ear, just a thing between the two of them: ]
We'll do more later, 'kay?
[ Because they're already as grossly PDA as is, and Day would rather they get to bask in finally being together without everyone else's eyes on them. The things Day wants to do are not ones he wants to share with anyone else, either. ]
no subject
He opens his mouth, then closes it again and just nods silently, too shy to give an actual voice to his desires yet wanting to make them clear nonetheless. It's a strange and almost unsettling thing, being allowed to hope - to look forward to something - like this, and he lets that thought roll around in his mind for a few moments until it finds a place to settle.
The warmth that spreads through him now can't be entirely attributed to the alcohol...]
no subject
He leans down to press a quick kiss to Phil's forehead—more gross PDA, but an innocent one, and one he wants to get in because he can't contain all this affection for Phil completely. ]
no subject
He'll just have to make sure Day understands exactly what he's responsible for later.]
