Well. Now you have me curious.

[ smirks. ] Did you want to stop and grab some coffee and donuts beforehand, to take with us?

I don't see why not. It's a good proposal and I can tolerate donuts.

To be honest sweets are starting to feel marginally more tolerable again in general.

You're welcome. [ sticks his tongue out playfully. ] Alright, we'll make the cafe our first stop then. [ reaching the garage he takes out the keys and climbs on, motioning for five to get on behind him. ]

If you end up crashing us you're responsible for making sure I don't die.

[ but he'll hop on, wrapping his arms around him shortly after ]

Let's get going.

Is that permission to give you mouth to mouth? Honestly, I feel like that's a bit of an incentive TO crash, though I'll spare you, since you do have *other* dates.

My lips are off limits until I'm age appropriate again. I'm sure it'll be tough but you'll survive that.

[ takes out an imaginary sheet of paper and scrawls a 0 in the air. ]

Sensei couldn’t give me a kiss, because he’s currently minor coded. 0/10, worst date.

I have no idea what that's supposed to mean but it sounds insulting.

And you can't rate me, anyway. You didn't pick me at the singles bar.

[ he’s not wrong...
it’s kind of an insult, probably. ]

I believe I already did, but, look, there’s plenty of room for improvement. [ grins. ] I’m sure you can wow me sensei.

Thought you were the one trying to impress me.

[ but. He'll rest fully against him at that and just sigh ]

Let's say I'm invested enough to care about getting a better rating. What would you enjoy?

I’ve already done th- oh, you’re talking about on our current date. [ shoots him a grin. ]

Honestly... hm~ [ pretends to think about it for a bit as he heads to the cafe. ] Just spending time with you is more than enough to make the rating climb. By the end of the date you’ll have gotten back to that perfect 10.

I'm flattered you like me that much but if you say that I really am going to put absolutely no effort in this.

If I suspect as much, then I'm absolutely crashing the motorcycle. [ pulls up to the cafe and parks it, climbing off to quickly head inside and grab some snacks~! and then it's off to some sort of shrine he found that's got sakura trees blossoming all around it. ]

I'm starting to think you're actually trying to woo me Caeli. It's successful, if you're wonderful.

[ he decides to admit it because at this point he can't deny it and he'll be called out on it, anyway. It's obvious by the look on his face that the place does seem to be up to his taste - sakura trees may not be a novelty in Taisho, but he likes it anyway, and flowers in bloom do provide a certain comfort by now. ]

Let's eat and drink under one of these then.

[ chuckles. ] And just what gave you that idea, sensei, I just thought this was the sort of place you'd like, esp~ecially given the route we took to explore the city the other day. [ innocent smile is GO. ]

[ he moves the bike through the area slowly so they can enjoy the sights as he looks for a spot to stop. ]

Sure, just pick a spot and I'll set things up for the two of us~

[ that was supposed to be if you're wondering, not if you're wonderful, wow!!! ]

I wasn't expecting you to use that against me to be honest.

[ I WAS WONDERING! ]

Ha! Do I really look like the innocent sort, sensei. [ he pulls off to the side and parks the bike, finding a nice spot to set up the blanket he'd brought along. ] I know you said you don't like fighting, but maybe you can show me a bit more of Taisho's abilities.

Taisho's abilities only lend themselves to fighting if you're creative, so I can show you regardless.

[ he'll sit down once he sets everything down, and just takes the snack and offer one donut to him so they can eat ]

What did you want me to show you?

I had a feeling! and that's part of the reason I'm asking you to show me, because I don't trust your unitmates to be as creative about it. I'm looking for interesting... not bo~oring.

[ takes a seat and leans into five, tail flitting back and forth as he noms the donut. he'll pour them both some coffee afterward, leaving five's as is and then putting some milk and sugar into his own. ]

I don't know. Anything? Everything. I'm just looking to see how other units fight with their abilities. It seems like it could get really interesting with the diversity.

Well. Then if you're looking to see them in action in an actual fight I do have to decline.

I can be creative with them just fine, but like you said. I don't like fighting. And as much as I like you I'm not going to give you an advantage over me in a game.

The best I can give you is a general explanation and potential samples.

I already have an advantage over you. I don't need another handicap. [ sneers. ] But [ sighs. ] I thought you were trying to make this date a 10/10. I want to see sensei put up a little bit of a fight... [ bumps shoulders with him a bit more roughly than strictly necessary. ] But I'll take whatever I can get.

I fight when it's necessary, or to kill. And I'm not entirely sure I'd be able to stop myself from doing the latter, depending on circumstances. And things have been - well. Already stressful enough that I don't need to add attempting to kill my brother's unitmate on the list.

Photographic memory is not something that can be used in a fight, but it can be used to memorize weaknesses. All I need is to see something once and I'll recall it perfectly again. So for example, if you were injured.

Or if you were to have a particular tattoo that has you react incredibly strongly to the touch.

You know. Just an example.

...hot. [ like, for real, he's not even joking! he enjoys fights to death and thinking about going toe to toe with five is getting him excited. how annoying is it that a bunch of trauma had to go and happen recently to make him weary of actually taking part... y'know, beyond his hatred of fighting for reasons other than necessity. ] Alright, fine, I'll stop bringing it up.

Don't tell me if we ever get into it you're going to touch my horny tattoo during a fight to try to render me useless. [ burst out laughing. ]

I'll use anything I can use to get the advantage so yes. I'll absolutely touch your horny tattoo during a fight.

Apt, considering you just said my likely being unable to hold back would be hot for you.
