[One thing to lament to her diary, probably. How practical her boyfriend is. Weavile and Feraligatr are privvy to her small pout.]

Yeah, lucky you. [Don't be disappointed. Silver's Silver.] I don't think Black would kill you or anything if I got sick, but he's got a really mean glare and strong words when they're put on paper. I would make you take care of me though.

[He's super practical! Right down to undoing her pigtails and starting to dry her hair.]

Of course I'd take care of you, I-

[...just undressed his girlfriend, has her in a towel, and now he's drying her hair while she's completely naked. Nice job, hero.

There's a distinct pause as he considers his life choices. The pause is accompanied by more heat, but he quickly resumes drying her hair, because- look, just because it's his adorable naked girlfriend doesn't mean that she isn't adorable, naked, and cold, and-]

[... So the situation's been noted, okay! Good. This is hilarious and-- you know, nice. She hasn't been able to tease or anything like this with someone in... forever. Forever.]

Is something the matter, Silver?

[She's playing innocent here, she knows what's up.]

Tits nothing.

[...You... You know, maybe if he doesn't say anything, she'll just not notice-]

You really know how to kill a mood, Silver.

[She noticed.]

Did it just hit you that you undressed your girlfriend and you've got her in only a towel?

[... But White's still adding to the warm atmosphere, so. You know. Nothing's changed. She's just poking fun at him.]

...Yes.

[It's not like White was making a big deal out of it, either, and-]

You look nice?

[You picked him, White.]

[... She had her chance to rightfully break up with him after calling him a convenience and putting an end to whatever feelings started there, born not from just being treated nicely the way Leo'd treated her back home (and she still hadn't thought she really deserved it, it's still kind of hard to come to terms with now) but from his kindness and consideration despite and because of all they'd been through. Admittedly because of her own problems, but... it wasn't like he had taken it. He stood up and then he held his hand out to her when she felt she didn't deserve any of that, but hadn't wanted to lose what she'd gained.

White's kind of caught staring at him over her shoulder while she considers the fact that she picked this idiot, but the plantlife's betraying her feelings acutely as they glow vibrantly.]

You're a moron. [So fond, when she finally says something.] You might be the stupidest guy I've dated, but you're definitely the third stupidest guy I've ever known.

[Because Black's first, no doubt, and then Leo's second, and then it's him. She turns a little, eyes flicking away and grip on the fabric a little tighter.]

I... could have another present for you. If you want to see how nice I look without this towel in the way.

[...Silver stares at her for a moment... And another... And another.

Well, he's certainly winning his idiot award today, because there wasn't anything subtle about what White said, and he still doesn't get it.]

Wouldn't you be cold?

You really think that in this room.

[As warm as it is. Really. Really.]

If you say yes, then Weavile and Feraligatr have to leave.

[SORRY YOU TWO. YOU. YOU GET IT, DON'T YOU. YOU TWO UNDERSTAND RIGHT.]

Yes to what? To-

[...Oh. Oh, oh, he's opening the door and scooting Weavile and Feraligatr out of the room.]

Are you talking about sex?

[She picked this. She picked this.

She needs to sit down and she's going to, resting her elbow on her knee as she leans forward. White knows exactly how much she's showing like this.]

Are you the type to even think about that kind of thing? I mean, you're you, but you're still a guy, so I thought I'd offer since that's kind of what girlfriends ask their boyfriends.

[Silver can't help but stare at her for a moment, but before it passes from interested to awkward, he looks away and sits down next to her. ...Being close doesn't exactly help, of course- I mean, look at her- and he rubs the back of his head as he tries to come up with what to say.]

Sometimes?

[...You know, he's already been awkward enough. He might as well tell the whole truth.]

Gold said you might want to do stuff like that, but when I first tried kissing you, you got nervous. I wouldn't mind, but I want to make sure you're comfortable. That you're happy.

[The temperature doesn't even need to be a sign of how nervous he is at this point. His face is more than doing that for him.]

Oh, that? I was just surprised that you actually kissed me! Not to mention you picked me up to do it -- most people lean down.

[It's kind of funny to her now, giggling a little with a shake of her head. Her grin softens to a small smile. Gold told him, huh. Now that is someone she expects to think about stuff like this.]

And... you know, I mean, at the time, I hadn't really had anything like that in three years. It was a shock. I've never really been nervous or afraid around you Silver, you're my greatest source of comfort here.

[... Which is sappy and a pretty heavy thing to say, maybe, considering her everything, but it's true. It's dangerous and a little frightening, but it's not him she's scared of in the end -- even then, she's determined to put her foot down too.]

And I'd like it if you kissed me now, Silver. If you're okay with it.

[She's comfortable around him. Is he comfortable around her? Maybe he shouldn't be- she's warned time and time again about how getting involved with her means nothing but trouble, and how she'd use him if she had to.

But that's never stopped him before, and it certainly isn't stopping him from kissing her now. The closeness makes him heat up with embarrassment, the risk makes little sparks start to fly off of him, and a couple of nearby flower stems start to grow in length; their stems steer closer to White and one even manages to curl around her finger.

He's more than okay with it, it seems.]

[And if he's okay with it, then there's certainly no question about if she is; she leans into the kiss, clenching the towel a little tighter, pushing away her more doubtful thoughts and wanting to just be a normal girl with a normal boyfriend and a normal life.

(She won't ever be, but she gets the closest here with the person she's kissing.)

White's starting to spark a little too, the more they kiss, because even if this is the easy part they're used to at this point it's what comes after that's got her pulse racing -- her hand'll jerk away when she touches him and there's a shock not unlike static, laughing it off.]

I... have never had my emotions on display like this the other times, but I'll try to, um. Not shock you. Sorry.

[Even if she doesn't sound all that sorry.]

[...That could become a problem, couldn't it.]

I'll do my best to keep my emotions in check too.

[Although she's probably going to get shocked at least a few times, just like Ryuunosuke.

...

Silver's expression sours a little and he briefly shakes his head. No, he definitely doesn't want to think about Ryuunosuke enjoying pain right about now. Come on, say something-]

It's kind of nice, in a way. I mean, there's seeing someone's emotional effects, then there's experiencing them.

[Think about something other than Ryuunosuke, think about something other than Ryuunosuke, think about-]

Maybe I'll like it.

[That's not what he wanted to say at all-]

[Oh my god.]

If you do, just let me know and I'll let loose.

[Because this is a thing she's willing to do, alright.]

You're right though, and that's why I want you to give me it all too, actually. We can try and keep them in check when they come out, but -- I want to experience your feelings. All of them.

[...... Which is apparently too much for her despite what she'd said just before that, judging by how red her face is turning. No. No, she's not getting embarrassed by wanting to experience feelings, she is going to kiss him again.]
