[did you have to hit him in the dick and balls, Tsukasa. Did you have to fucking annihilate him like this.

ok yes but still, like, Rui's completely floored when he actually reads it. He just looks at it, blinking a few times until the blinking sounds wet, and then hastily turning to the side. For no reason. Don't worry about it.

I think I know what the biggest benefit would be, to loving you. It's being able to trust you so completely, even when you say grandiose things. You're so earnest it hurts, Tsukasa-kun.

[ Oh geez, that's not quite the reaction he was going for. More like 'goodness how sweet Tsukasa-kun, now I couldn't possibly part with this, fufu' or something, but now, well. Damn, he feels bad.

Gentle but firm patting against Rui's arm turns to holding onto his sleeve, trying to turn his gaze back Tsukasa's way.

Hey, hey, Rui. Come on, look at me, don't go running off into your own head again.

Ah-- no, it's alright. Your brightness simply stunned me for a moment, nothing more.

[He's not making eye contact still, alas. Look, sometimes he gets hit in the knees by emotional cricket bats and he needs a moment!! You can't get mad at him, Tsukasa!!

Something incredibly warm, affectionate even, creeps into Rui's expression as he keeps blinking at the autograph, smile wobbling a little.
] I'm honoured that you think so highly of me, when I feel as though it's really the other way around.

[ Even if Rui's not looking, Tsukasa sure is. Which means he gets to see that new expression as it wobbles in inch by inch, softening his own intensity as concern and curiosity come into his own with a much less subtle hand. ]

Other way around...? Rui, you've done more for me than I could hope to even begin properly thanking you for.

[...If he goes yapping on about this any further, he'll just burden Tsukasa with a tragic backstory that he already knows, and that's already been dealt with enough.

So Rui finally resumes eye contact, smile absent as he presses the autograph to his chest.
]

Then we'll call it even, won't we?

...And I'll be keeping this, just so you're aware. I'll need help finding a suitable frame, though. Would you mind?
