[ It is cute… if only because he's terribly proud of the bird characteristics he has, down to his feathers and colouration. Thanks for noticing, Malkuth. No one ever says it because he talks about his own appearance enough for the other party and then some. ]

What makes you say that? You get up early to achieve all you can. By the time night rolls around, you're free to kick back and reflect on your day gone by. But you're the sort that thrives under the hustle and bustle of the morning, aren't you? And yet we complement each other anyway.

[ Here they are, making up a personality quiz as they go. Malkuth does strike him as a dawn though, regardless of the truth of her answer, even if it's for different reasons than his own. ]

On that note, here's another question that would tell our audience a bit more about us. After you greet the morning, how do you go about your day? From planning them to the hour to going to the flow, where do you land?

[ her bestie is march, who's not shy about talking up her own appearance. malkuth's not only used to the type, but likes to encourage it herself -- while feeling awkward about putting herself out there the same way, yeah. elysium will learn. ]

I used to be the first, definitely. When I was younger, my life was planned down to... pretty much the minute! So you could say I've moved somewhere a little more in the middle at this point -- I have a general plan lined out, like things I'd like to do before the day's up, but I won't fuss if things don't go my way.

[ with a sort of tone and smile that implies she used to fuss, or be stressed about it. ]have surprised me already! So how about you? Do you ride the waves as they come, or do you wait until conditions are just right?

[ planned down to the minute… woah… what a frankness. he immediately thinks of ratio who he makes a point to avoid whenever he reaches a certain level of intensity, and finds himself breathing a laugh for it. a little more honesty, then. ]

If we met a little earlier, I wonder if we'd still get along as we do. I was even more of a free spirit than I am now, believe it or not; you couldn't count on me to stay in one place or make any sort of plan. I don't think I'd be able to reconcile myself with someone who wouldn't want to take on life's surprises, at least to a certain extent——you'd miss a lot of opportunities otherwise.

[ He threads his hands above the table and smiles. ]

We happened that way, didn't we? A whim. A moment's chance we decided to seize. I'm glad. But is this your way of implying I should meet you halfway more, hm?

my html............ thank goodness nothing too important was cut

[ignoreher]

If you don't, [ and she takes her cup in hand finally, resting her cheek in her hand, ] then I'll just keep stepping towards you until it becomes halfway.

[ almost a threat, but put as a tease. malkuth takes a sip of the soju, grinning lightly, and sets it back aside. ]

Let me ask a better question. S or M?

[ this is not a better question but it is one that'll make their comments go wild. less serious, more funsy ]

[ malkuth how are they getting monetised like this

but okay.

alright. his smile stiffens before it relaxes again (caught in high definition on hummingbird tv), but alright!!! ]

It's way more fun to be flexible. [ is she ticklish at her knees. he's going to reach down with one of his hands and spread his fingers over them lightly. he can't be the only one caught off guard, here. ] Variety is the spice of life, as they say?

[ignoreher]

[ you gotta trust her ely it's the long game of fires in chat and the longing wishes they could be in her position--

maybe literally right now because yes, she's ticklish at her knees, jumping a little with a light pink to her cheeks puffed in a playful (?) pout. ]

That just sounds like you don't know, Lottie.

[ but she's not gonna offer to let him find out, turning her face away in some embarrassment. when she continues, it's affectionate. ]

But I don't really mind a life of routine, as long as it's not something I'm trapped into doing. Having you in it really shakes things up.

[transmit]

Do you have to call me out in front of this many people?

[ Now he's the one looking embarrassed, whether it's in truth or for play… He's still facing her, but his gaze is shifted to the side. ]

Maybe I don't have as much experience as you and others seem to think. It's not really something I've ever had to think about before, you know?
