I think by an Earth calendar, today would be Father's Day.

To the other parents who are here... do you miss your children? Even if you wouldn't want them here.

I miss mine.

[That's right, they've never sat down and had this talk.]

I don't dislike the sound of it, but we wouldn't be exclusive to each other. To be honest, I've never been in a relationship before, especially something like this.

[He sips at his sake.]

[tigerpoet]

I can't commit to just one person either, but I'd like to be your boyfriend.

[Just gonna not mention that he's boyfriends with Atsushi too... don't want to stir up the rivalry.]

You're someone precious to me, after all.

[killercoat]

[ Probably shouldn't mention that detail.]

From the beginning, you've been special to me, too. So if it's you, I don't mind being your boyfriend.

[He reaches to take hold of Atsushi's hand.]

[tigerpoet]

[Atsushi gives Akutagawa's hand a squeeze.]

I'm glad. Because I adore you, Ryuunosuke.

[killercoat]

[ Akutagawa's cheeks heat up. It's still strange to have such words directed towards him, but he likes it all the same.]

I cherish you, too.

[ He uses their handhold to pull Atsushi closer, so he can bestow the other man with a kiss.]

[tigerpoet]

[Their kiss tastes faintly of sake, though it stays chaste. Atsushi is wearing a smile when he pulls back.]

Maybe we should toast? To our relationship.

[killercoat]

Yes.

[ He holds up his glass toward Atsushi.]

To find what we need in each other.

[tigerpoet]

To find what we need in each other.

[Clink! He takes another sip.]

This is good stuff. I'll have to pick it up the next time I visit.

[killercoat]

[ He takes a sip from his glass, savoring the taste on his tongue.]

You should, there's a lot of good ones. We could always go together if you need help selecting one?

[tigerpoet]

Alright then. Our next date will be in Amegahara.

[killercoat]

Amegahara is fine, but shopping for sake might be a waste of a date.

[tigerpoet]

Is it? I think I'd enjoy any activity if it was with you, but we can incorporate something better into it.

[killercoat]

[Akutagawa has an idea, but he doesn't know if Atsushi will go along with it. It's not an outrageous request, but...]

I'd like to see you in a yukata again. We could both wear one.

[tigerpoet]

I'd love to. I'm sure you'll cut a handsome figure as always.

[killercoat]

[Yes, let him play out his secret desire of matching/coordinating outfits.]

I suppose, but I won't be nearly as striking as you. It's a date, then. I'll put all my efforts into making sure it's a good one.

[Althought he always enjoys Atsushi's company on a date or not, but he believes he can do better.]

[tigerpoet]

You're too sweet to me sometimes, you know that?

[A cheek kiss, just because.]

[killercoat]

[ Akutagawa blushes at the cheek kiss, easily flustered by any affection towards him.]

That's sweet? I just don't want to do things half-heartedly.

[tigerpoet]

It's sweet, putting in the extra effort even though I would be satisfied by anything with you.

[killercoat]

You might be satisfied with anything, but I believe actions speak louder than words. I might not be able to tell you how much I care, but I can at least show you.

[ Although, he still needs to work on with affection and intimacy. It's not always easy for him to initiate it, but he's trying to be less awkward about it.]

[tigerpoet]

I know you do, even if you don't say it.

[He leans over to peck a kiss on the bridge of Akutagawa's nose.]

[killercoat]

[Akutagawa blushes at the kiss, it was very tender. Though before Atsushi pulls away, the mafioso cups his cheek. Speaking of things unsaid...]

The same goes for you, even if you don't say it, I know when you feel lonely. You don't have to put on a brave face for me.

[tigerpoet]

...thank you.

[The smile falls from his face, and he goes quiet, leaning against Akutagawa for that point of reassuring contact.]

[killercoat]

[As Atsushi leans into him, Akutagawa sets his glass down, so he wrap his arm around him and pet his hair.]

I adore you for accepting me. So I want to be as accepting of all parts of you as well.

[tigerpoet]

I don't mean to hide anything from you. I just... don't want to trouble anyone, I suppose.

[It's second nature to stay silent about his own feelings.]

[killercoat]

It's not a bother. It's more troublesome to play along and pretend to not see your pain.
