Kiss their hands


kiss their hand
A character takes the hand of another and kisses it as a mark of respect. Used to portray the character as particularly romantic, chivalrous, foreign, or just a bit old-fashioned.

( modified from here. )


Why stick with the cliché? The subdued? The modern? Go big or go home, we say! There's nothing wrong with reaching out, taking someone's hand — and laying a sweet kiss right on the back of it (or on their palm, their finger, their wrist...)! You just know you'll leave an impression. So, whether in a polite yet platonically old-fashioned greeting, a sworn oath, a hope to sweep them off their feet, a measure of comfort, or anything in between, drop to one knee and kiss the ring.

Ring optional.

How to Play
- Comment with your character, info, prefs, the business. What role are you going to play? Slap that in there, too.
- Reply to others.
- Your character is kissing their hand. Or getting a hand kissed. Whichever!

[The one getting her hand kissed. I'm open to writing her pre or post Shibuya, and even 0 era.]

(every time is the same. yuuta, at his core, is deeply romantic. downright sappy, even. maki is the opposite and that is something he's had to make piece with. her affection is different from his but that doesn't make it any less sincere. hers comes in the form of picking lint of his jacket and fixing his tie or training hard with him so he doesn't die. his comes in gifts---usually little "I thought of you" ones---and words. sometimes, though, when she lets him...well...)

Hey, Maki, (he catches her scarred hand in his before she can walk away. yuuuta tugs, ever gentle, and brings her hand up towards his face.) I don't think I've told you today but, you're beautiful.

(he presses his lips neatly against the back of her hand.)

[Thank god for these scars, because otherwise the blush would be immensely more apparent whenever Yuuta does these sincere little gestures. They warmed her currently traitorously racing heart, knowing he cares about her this much despite all her griping from even way back. For certain, Maki does less of it these days, but it hardly changes how flustered she gets as she groans when he kisses her scarred hand.

Only as someone as stupidly and endearingly sincere as him love these hands of hers, she can't help but think to herself.]

Ugh, quit it.

[Though for as much as she's complaining, Maki also hadn't yanked her hand out of his hold.]

(he smiles against her hand, stealing just one more kiss there before he straightens and complies (partially---he definitely still holds her hand). yuuta can't not tell maki how beautiful she is to him. just like he can't quite stop himself from thinking about her all the time.)

What?

You're still impossible.

[Deflecting as her usual in her very Maki way to cover up the embarrassment she feels as well as just how fast her heart is beating, the young woman huffs after he dares to steal another kiss after she's told him to cut it out.]

You better not pull this kinda shit in front of our theoretical kids.
