[ The soft shell twitches, then folds back a bit as it splays, his eyes fluttering a bit and tilting his head into the touch.

That's... That's a little overwhelming, still getting used to being able to feel like that. But he can tolerate it, even enjoy it a little with Sunny's careful touch. ]

Mmmh- I get that.

[ A faint arch if his back, sinking into Sunny's hold just a little bit more. ]

I might... Hide out here as well, when I get some games back- Walking around is so tiring.

You can.

[Sunny feels warm. When Kenma sinks closer, its easy to return the touch in kind. Before Kenma, Sunny had gone years without being touched by another person. It's difficult to break away from, now that he's felt it again - and never like this.]

I don't mind. Just tell me...

Mmmh- of course.

[ Depending on how involved that relationship gets, it might not even be necessary. They'll see.

Plot twist, they're both basically shut in nerds... ]

Oh! Right.
Uhm, you mentioned spare clothes?

[ He's still in the clothes he arrived in. ]

[They really are Uhauling this shit...

[Still in his sweater vest and collared shirt, he ought to change into something comfortable too...

[He disappears into his room for a moment, then emerges (changed) with a pair of pajama pants and a t-shirt in hand. He silently hands them to Kenma.]

[ Fresh clothes! He's never felt so relieved to see some. Especially with those stronger kitty senses.

His eyes flicker to the other rooms, then back to Sunny as he takes the pajamas. ]

Sorry, I know it's a lot already but...

Can I use the shower, too?

[ He doesn't want to be that smelly, especially in someone else's clothes. ]

[Lord, but this boy can blush.]

Oh. O-of course.

[ He's cute when he's blushing. ]

T-thanks- I'll be right back?

[ And just like that, he sneaks one kiss to Sunny's chin and disappears into the bathroom, closing the door behind him once his tail disappears inside.

The faint sound of rushing water, changing, and Kenma stepping in. It'll give Sunny a moment to compose himself or settle down at least! ]

[He could use it. There is a cat boy showering in his bathroom right now. He's nothing if not a sixteen-year-old boy. It's! A lot!

[But he can be cool. He can be chill. He lowers himself back down into his stuffed animal pile and scrolls through his phone. He's very quickly learning how to be a proper internet addict. It's so much easier than interacting in person...

[But he's excited to see Kenma again when he's all done showering. That's saying something...]

[ Imagine... a cat boy just, using your shower so casually. The door probably isn't even locked but, that might be far too bold for either of them this early.

He's modestly quick at least, as much as he enjoys showering, in about ten minutes there's a freshy showered setter falling back down into the pile next to Sunny, extra warm from the water and smelling of his shampoo. His fur's dry, but his hair's still hanging and damp.

Looks pretty comfy in Sunny's clothes too- ]

Mmmh- thanks. That's much better...

[He looks...awfully nice in Sunny's clothes, yes. Kenma...He's so handsome that Sunny can't hardly believe he dreamt him up. He'd never normally be one to open his home up to strangers, but here they are, sharing clothes, lying in the same pile...

[And it's really very nice.

[Sunny scoots a bit closer. Will Kenma too? He wants to be close - as close as possible. He had no idea how much he craved the feeling of being held before...]

You smell nice...

[ Comfy pajamas, forgivingly baggy so that they don't look too small on Kenma's lankier frame. Those sharp golden eyes flicker over as Sunny scoots, carefully adjusting before leaning in and shifting a bit closer himself.

The two both seem allergic to any distance, snuggling up close as arms drape around him once more and pull Sunny in. ]

I mostly smell like you... right now-
So I guess I agree.

[ That might be the smoothest thing he's ever said. He's never been so close with someone, not like this before.

It's nice, in a way he didn't realize he wanted. ]

[Sunny has wanted something like this for as long as he can remember. He's a dreamer, both waking and sleeping, and always has been - even before dreams started turning to nightmares. He doesn't have the strongest foundation when it comes to the idea of romance, but he's imagined what it would be like a thousand time - crafted characters to play out the roles in his head.

[But all that drama, all that intrigue...it's really nothing like just lying next to someone who feels like you and not being afraid.

[It's nice. It's really nice. That line was pretty smooth on Kenma's part, and Sunny blushes. A nervous little giggle forms and dies in his chest before he can let it out.

[He's not even thinking about what might happen when it's time to sleep - when shadows become monsters and he wakes up in a sweat. Maybe not tonight. It hasn't been so bad here...]

Are you tired...?

[ Kenma's not really thought about romance much before. The roses kickstarted it, and now that he's here it's just... kindof happening?

It was all a lot of effort for a (probably autistic) game obsessed shy cat to deal with, energy he didn't really have. And the crowns helped them just kindof... skip that?
It's strange.

Yet nice. Now that they're here. He finds it so easy to just close his eyes once they two are nestled close. ]

Right now? Not really... I need my heart to calm...

[ He admits that without much embarassment, ears folding back as the two get cozy. ]

But if you want to go to sleep... I'll probably feel tired when we get there.

[One thing about Sunny: he always wants to go to sleep. But he doesn't want to miss out on Kenma either. What a strange feeling...]

My heart...is racing too.

[...]

I have one bed, but...[He should offer to sleep out here or something, but this is his dream, and it's a nice one. He can lie next to Kenma if they both want...]

It's big enough. For two.

Mmmh- I can hear it.

[ Larger cat ears twitch, and he can't help but meet Sunny's darker eyes, getting lost in them for a little moment before... His heart picks up as well.

Oh, right, he wouldn't have two beds would he? The end of his tail gives a faint twitch. ]

We can... [ Another heart flutter, his cheeks tint. ] Share, if you're okay with that?

[Little goosebumps prickle up all over Sunny's body, and he nods, breathless.]

Mhmm...

[ Blond hair sways as Kenma's head tilts... A small, soft breath, and his fingers curl along Sunny's back, reluctant to withdraw. ]

Want to... Go now?

[ It's been a long day, admittedly. Maybe it's the cat in him, the temptation of a bed is calling, but also-

Laying down with Sunny sounds... Really nice? ]

[Lying in a pile of stuffed animal is one thing - feels almost innocent, too steeped in childhood to be of much significance; sharing a bed, however, feels...more significant. It's nerve-wracking and makes Sunny's toes curl with some anticipation.

[They'll probably just lie there together, maybe with their arms wrapped around each other just like this...

[He'd be okay with that.]

Okay. Let's go...

[ There's something about it that makes his heart skip.

Yet by the time they're both tucked into bed, all prepped, Kenma feels it the moment he lays down. A whole day's worth of figuring out a new world catching up on him.

As much as he wants to spend a bit more time being affectionate, he might actually be the first one to fall asleep, curled up with Sunny and slightly tangled together.

Snug as a cat- ]
