[Oh, a carnival seems really, REALLY fun, and that's where she's been with Cecil, of course! Right now, though, she has broken away from her hubby to go wander around a little on her own. Wanna bug her?]

[Aw the smile. Kain loves the sight of that. He gets his journal, which he now keeps open and ready, to write a reply.]

I had to ensure that it was safe here.

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

[PROBABLY EVEN MORE WHEN IT'S AIMED AT HIM, HUH? Still, she waits for his reply, used to his stopping to write things out. But this time, feeling a tad more playful than she would ever usually be, Rosa takes his pen and journal from him to write one reply to him:]

Of course it's safe here. We're getting a "vacation", as John said.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[He LOVES the sight of that smile, yes... and what is she doing!? D: ...OH. Kain lets his eyes linger on her pretty handwriting a moment. Gives her a questioning look, but finally replies.]

I suppose you're right. Even so... I wanted to be sure.

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

[Sadly, no written reply for you this time, Kain. She'll answer in actual voice. A slightly teasing one, at least.]

I think you just wanted to come and have fun.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[Aw. D: But he liked that she did that. And he likes her teasing him. And. ARRRGH. It's such a pleasure and a torment being around her.]

You really think so?

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

Of course I do. I'm glad you're here though!

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[And he's suddenly glad to be here... at least, to be with Rosa, anywhere.]

[He will also continue moving in the direction of that tunnel of love... at least to get in the area of it. He's hopeless like this. -_-]

I hope you've enjoyed yourself so far...

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

I have! Very much so. It's fun here. I like it. It's nice to have a break from things. It's different from things we have back home, isn't it?

[She'll continue walking with you at least, Kainy. For now.]

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[Kain nods thoughtfully, still trying to make it seem as if he's moving in a completely random direction. Maybe he can just... be with her right outside of the ride? Sigh.]

You deserve that break.

[After all, last month's experiment was apparently a horrible thing for her. :( And he also feels guilty about his own reaction to the experience.]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

[That might have to be all. :| Sorry Kain. YOU TRIED. IT WAS A VALIANT ATTEMPT, ANYWAY.]

Thank you. You do too, you know.

[But hey, you're getting a smile and your hand, Kainy? Is getting a comforting squeeze.] You''ll get your voice back soon, I'm sure.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[That IS where he's stopped walking for a moment. Right in front of the ride. So he can be all woeful about having her with him and not in there. Ever.]

[He looks at her in surprise when she squeezes his hand. Why do you have to do things like this Rosa? D: Aw. D:]

I don't know if I'll ever deserve it...

[But he has missed it sometimes more than he lets on. It's mainly the being incomplete thing that gets to him.]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

[Hur hur, fail Kain. 8) No taking Rosa on the ride.

AND SHE DOES IT BECAUSE SHE LOVES YOU. PLATONICALLY OF COURSE.]

Oh Kain, don't say that. Of course you do. [So, taking his other hand into hers, both of his hands get a comforting squeeze.] You deserve good things happening to you too.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[He is such a failure. :( ...because he loves you. MORE THAN HE SHOULD.]

[He looks downward a moment and... gently squeezes her hands back in return. Mouths a silent "thank you" while his hands are in hers, since he's hesitant to let go.]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

I mean it, but... you're welcome, Kain.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[Urge to hug the Rosa rising. :( ]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

[She'll hug back if you do. :|]

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[...Sure make this harder on him. :| He... stands there, hesitates a while, and gradually puts an arm around her. Lightly. Then the other really quickly, and he's already about to pull away since he's probably touching her too much...]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

Huh? Ka-- [Oh. Hugs. We like hugs. Really. And you're Rosa's uber bff, Kain, why wouldn't she hug back? When Kain's other arm gets around her, she laughs a little and hugs back.] What is it, Kain?

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[When he notices her hugging him, he hugs a little more. ...He really needs to stop enjoying this so much. But, as she asks her question and he's still hugging her, he silently says "I love you". ...Not that she can see what he says. Oh well, he didn't want it to be known anyway.]

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

Kain, I can't see what you're trying to say. Is everything all right? [Despite the failings of it all, she's trying to look at him, but it's not working very well.]

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[Shakes his head, then, realizes he meant to nod, which he then does. THEN, pulls away so he can write.]

Yes, it's all right.

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

But, you were shaking your head...

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

Only mistakenly. I promise that it's all right.

[holyblade.livejournal.com]

...all right. But if you need to talk, I'm here for you Kain. All right?

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

I... ...Thank you, Rosa.
