[ Why isn't he surprised that Rafayel is running with this. You are using a dead man in this manner?
Not that Sylus cares.
He keeps his eyes closed, feeling the fatigue of the day catching up with him. It's nice to take a moment to rest... While listening to Rafayel yammer on. It feels cozy. ]
he pauses because it's clearly a half-truth, but thankfully he doesn't scramble for very long to come up with a response. ] He was interested in the ocean, and said he wanted to try walking on the shore together. [ he starts off, but admittedly...
he isn't sure where he was going with this.
idly he places a finger where sylus' hairline begins on the back of his neck.
he wonders if he was planning to take a nap here? ]
[ He is not going to take a nap here when there is a bed just in the other room, but he doesn't mind lounging here a moment. It's nostalgic, reminds him of when he would have to patch himself up in an unnamed bathroom after a long day.
He doesn't move when Rafayel puts the finger on his nape, but he doesn't tense up at the sudden contact either, remaining relaxed. ]
Sounds like he was just choosing easy answers to earn your affection. [ Walking on the beach? Predictable. Lame. ] He should've offered to go riding on a jet ski or play with a hoverboard if he really wanted to try something new.
[ Choose something more impressive if you want to make him jealous... ]
when sylus remains still, his finger continues, trailing up through his hair. he stops when he reaches the center of it, as if deciding whether to move left or right. ] Is that a problem? [ he gives a small huff. ]
When it comes to watersports, you do know you're talking to the expert, right? [ it's obvious? he'd win? why is it a competition now, who knows... but, he does shake his head, as if they're getting off topic. ] But, I'll keep that in mind next time. A flyboarding date does sound kinda fun.
[ They are getting off-topic. He still hasn't discerned what Rafayel wants, or whether he's still upset about the mild choking attempt that Sylus doesn't think is that big of a deal.
The petting is nice though. Almost like having his hair played with. ]
[ good, because he's going for the other ear next, giving it a light flick. ]
If that's how you want to interpret it. [ the real answer is, he isn't sure what he wanted? a warm welcome? validation for this strange connection they had? sylus was probably right in determining half his issue wasn't actually with sylus himself. ]
Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to say yes.

For your date with Soo-Won.
[ lol ]

You want me to go on a date that badly?
[ he shrugs. ]
Then you should consider working up the courage to ask me yourself.

Is that what you wanted when we all returned? For me to ask you on a date?
