[cheek kisses are LAME, and he just doesn't believe that you're all that delicate and faithful. or just doesn't care? Doesn't care. makes a briefly confused face and then puts a hand on the back of his neck to balance while he turns into it to kiss him flat on the mouth]
[ he honestly just wanted to tease him with that, knowing Scythe would probably push things further considering how they met. there's something like a laugh in the kiss, keeping himself leaned down for that. ]
[if the words over his head had changed they would say 'disgruntled but smug' but they just disappear instead. Scythe bites him lightly at the laugh because he SUSPECTS HE'S BEEN PLAYED in some weird and meaningless way, and breaks the kiss off a second later]
[the kiss happens before he can figure out why there is a slight delay in what he meant to say, so the effect of the yellow one remains a mystery. He does return the kiss, even pulls at his lip a little this time, but once again breaks it off before it can go too long]

It's pulling no punches, I see.

Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 12:12 am (UTC)There's no harm in being eager.
[ unfortunately he's still Absinthe so all of his compliments will probably just sound like sarcasm. ]
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 12:14 am (UTC)Are you eager, then?

Date: 2020-09-11 12:21 am (UTC)So, you gonna kiss me or not?

Date: 2020-09-11 12:27 am (UTC)[ he leans down himself, though, to help make up some of the height difference between them and try to kiss his cheek ]

Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 01:26 am (UTC)[also grabbing another. yellow! makes a face at the taste]
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 01:31 am (UTC)I would never be polite insincerely.
[ thankfully a lie! and he's leaning back down with that drink taken to kiss him again -- this time fully, not so delicate-acting anymore. ]
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 01:38 am (UTC)Does anyone buy that?
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 01:41 am (UTC)I like to imagine I'm somewhat convincing.

Date: 2020-09-11 02:04 am (UTC)[ picks up another vial ]
Another, or do you wish to spread them out?
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 02:08 am (UTC)[picks up another one, orange this time]
Re: Scythe
Date: 2020-09-11 05:51 am (UTC)I'm not entirely sure if I can win off my kiss count alone, but it is certainly worth a try.
