[Never in a million years would Sunny have thought that he'd be the first person reaching out after a first meeting like theirs, but Kenma is so shy himself...One of them needs to say something...]

hi

[Start there. It took him hours to send this.]

❤

Oh, Hey!

[ The resonse comes almost immediately. Kenma is far more outgoing via text, he's so online it's a problem, whoops. ]

[!!! A heart!!! Sunny's far less experienced with the internet, but he definitely sees the appeal in texting.]

i didn't know you could make little pictures
like that

🐱

There's a smiley face button to the side of the text box! Did you have emoji's in your world?

i dont think so
we didnt have internet at my house

or phones like this

😱

No internet... I might have died.

Also, the date was really nice. ❤
I'm not good at... talking, usually, but quiet is kindof nice, with someone else who enjoys it~

its not very common where im from
i think maybe
im from an older time than you
that can happen here

[As for the date...]

i really liked it ❤ too
ive never been on one before
actually

Yeah... Weird game mechanics right? I think that trapped in a game trope works well here. But we're all from like... different worlds? Something like that.

[ He's so comfy, chatting to his ~~boyfriend~~ date, they're just dating right now, yup. Nothing serious at all yet. Texting's much easier than talking. ]

Me too!
It was nice though. I usually don't go to cafe's...
We should hang out again. ^^

[They are technically dating! Or...they've been on one date, at least! Does that count as dating? Is Sunny dating someone?

[No. No, that...that wouldn't make sense, right? Surely he's making a mountain out of a sproutmole hill. Kenma's just nice...No one would actually like him - especially not like that!]

i would like that
a lot

this world is weird
but cool too
there are princes and dragons
angels and gods
and all sorts of other people too

[...]

im glad i met you
out of all those people

[ Dating and being in a relationship are different! He thinks. Its like... the difference between saying you're a healer and occasionally playing a healing character! It's all about commitment!

That said... he's kindof keen to get past that barrier. ]

Cute guys too!

[ The enxt message comes with a slight delay, he's too embarassed and needed to curl up a bit. ]

Yeah, it's kindof interesting. I glad I met you... so soon.
Otherwise I probably would have freaked out a bit.

[ He totally still did. ]

[Cute guys too...Surely he doesn't mean Sunny...? Maybe he's talked to other people?]

its kind of scary sometimes
if u freak out and u want to talk to someone
im a good listener

[At least...that's what Basil used to say...]

[ He means specifically you, Sunny. ]

Thanks. I might... Uh
Take you up on that. Soon. It's weird being here alone.

Do you have many friends here?

[Ah...the "f" word, as it were.]

not really

[He has people who have called themselves his friend, but...it's difficult to believe. Sunny can't understand why anyone would want to be friends with him - even his friends back home don't want to be friends with him.]

im not very good at friends

i dont want you to have to be alone though
we can talk whenever u want
ok?

Me neither... I think I only had one through middle school... and some of highschool.

[ Introverts united. ]

Ah, same to you. I'm really quick with texting!

Uh... What are you up to today?

i like texting a lot
its kind of
easier than talking

[And we are just going to totally skip that portion about friends. He's not eager to get into the details of his own history...]

im just at home right now
how old are you by the way?
im 16

Oh!
17! My birthday's in October though so it's going to be a while.

I was thinking... I could come over if you want? I haven't really got a permanent place here yet. So just... hanging out in random places.

And yeah, texting is way easier. ^^

u don’t have anywhere to stay?

you should come over
do you have extra clothes?

i have food too
u can stay here if you need to

[What is he doing offering up his safe space like that? He kicked Aubrey out into the blizzard for fuck’s sake. But Kenma has nowhere else to go…]

I got a treehouse when I first got here
they’re easy to get
maybe you can get one too

[There, that ought to…even things out a bit…]

Ah!.. Hmm.

Are you sure?

I might come for a night, or two. Try to find my own place after that-

[ One trope later, what could go wrong. ]

Where are you, anyway?

[Two nights. Two sleepovers. He can do that! He can do that…]

there’s a neighborhood of all tree houses
but they’re really houses on the inside

where are you
and I can bring you

[ He might get it sorted sooner if it's awkard but...

He kinda really likes Sunny, and they'll both propbably disappear into a quiet corner to do their own thing. ]

Ah- I'm near the big crystal. There's a cafe nearby that had milkshakes.

[The perfect date, to be honest - quietly parallel play and occasionally hold hands (and maybe make out if Sunny is really lucky--)]

i know where that is
ill come get you

[Lord, but his heart can race. Will it race like this every time he anticipates Kenma? Would he mind if it did?

[He's at the crystal in only about fifteen minutes. He approaches Kenma, blush already on his face, giving a short wave. He wonders if he should take his hand. Maybe in a moment...]

[ Just two boys doing their own thing and... oh, there was only one bed- ]

Mmm! I thought it would be... the easiest location to find.

I'll see you soon. ❤

[ And just like that. Kenma's slowly finished off his drink and stepped on over to wait near the crystal.

Ah! There he is. The cat ears and tail are gone for now, he doesn't want that much attention on him. (actually, he wants no attention on him, please do not perceive him, society)

There's a faint smile, and he steps over to join Sunny. Even not as a half-cat, his eyes are still so sharp, bright yellow... ]

Hey- Uh... Ready to go?

[ He gives his hand a little lift, like a quiet offer. ]

[Kenma offers his hand, and it's easy as that. Sunny takes it, lacing their fingers. His heart is in his throat again. Those roses really didn't make all that much of a difference at all, did they?

[At Kenma's question, he nods. He's not a smiler, really, but his expression is...content, and that's saying something.

[He begins to walk back in the direction of the tree houses. Not many have seen the inside of his house before. He's nervous...]

It's...a little messy. At my house...

[ Fingers lace, a little curl of digits... Maybe a brush of thumb against the back of his hand. Nice and comfy. ]

Ah, it's fine. My room got pretty bad sometimes too... Mostly with games-

[ He's never had a whole house before... What would he do with all that space? ]

[Sunny has personally filled it full of stuffed animals and sketchbook pages, but he tried to make it at least somewhat presentable before coming for Kenma. Most of the sketches are hidden away in books, save for one or two pinned to a wall...

[He hopes Kenma won't think the plushes are weird. He just likes them. Always has...

[It's a quiet walk by virtue of Sunny being a quiet person. When they get to the treehouse, he glances at Kenma, lightly squeezing his hand.]

You...go first, okay? [Up the ladder, he means.]
