Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

You hope so. . .

[ thoughtful. without a hint of joking in his tone, ]

Oni-san, do you love me?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ MORE TAKEN ABACK ]


Uh -- I think I'm not as free-wheelin' usin' that word compared to you.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ ??? ]

Are we using it differently? Is love not the desire to see someone healthy and happy, to wish them good and hope for the best for them, to have good will towards them?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

I mean, yeah, it's all that .. I guess ya can love a friend. But there's different types of love.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

Familial, yes? What else would there be?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ ??? ]

Romantic? Someone ya want to be with the rest of yer life.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

For the rest of my life?

[ hm ]

Would other loves fail in this metric?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

Nah, I don't think so, but it's -- different. If you're romantic with someone ...

[ he exhales ]

You don't remember boyfriends, girlfriends? Gettin' married?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

Ah, I do know about marriage.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

People get married when they love each other. In the romantic sense.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

Ah. . . That sort of thing is special, isn't it?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

Yeah. So I wouldn't just say "I love you" like that to anyone.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ hmm hmmmm thinking for a little bit ]

Then, do you like me?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ a nod ]

Yeah, I like ya.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ kind of like, pauses and then laughs a little bit, startled and abashed. Like, he didn't really expect a no so much as he didn't think about what it means to say yes which, is just, you know, good will, but,

self worth, ]

. . . Aha. I like you, too.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ his lips quirk some at that. ]

Were you not expectin' to hear it straight up?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ brushing back a lock of his own hair, self-conscious now as he teases the strands between his fingers ]

I wonder - ? I think this is just the first time I've ever heard it, so it's a new sound to my ears.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

Would you be less weirded out if I said I loved ya?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ thinks about it for a second ]

. . .


. . .


. . . . It isn't like I'm put off by it, but - it is somehow a little embarrassing . . . I understand, it isn't something to be said carelessly, huh. . .

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

There ya go, you're gettin' why I'm not just tossin' the word around.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ pulling his hair a bit forward to cover his face, his cheeks feel warm and his hair is cool ]

Mmm, I understand now. My apologies for my carelessness, Oni-san.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ -- reaches up, pats his shoulder ]

S'okay, you don't gotta be all 'pologetic about it.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

Ah. . .

[ not shying away from the touch though he does still for a moment, before leaning a little to his hand ]

Thank you for . . .teaching me?

Re: Oni - memory 1

[grandschemed]

[ ...

pats his head ]

Yer welcome. Just don't go forgettin' it.

Re: Oni - memory 1

[sancrimony]

[ !

lifts his head a little to press up against his hand ]

I won't forget it, Oni-san!
