[ hot springs... food...... it wouldn't even be hard for tobari to be convinced to go another round but luckily the reminder that he's hungry really does the job. he blinks, pausing for a second after the kiss, and then as if he really forgot ]
Oh right... I'm hungry.
[ they did MORE physical things after their hike instead of refueling..... he's really only even hungrier now...
but he'll kiss rafayel's cheek before moving to get up. looking for the phone to call for room service... ]
I can order something. [ didn't rafayel just say he'd take care of tobari? maybe so. ignored. ] Go wash up so it's here by the time you're out and so we don't get distracted again.
[ showering together would again lead to disaster ]
... and forgot to eat. tobari, you are so funny. rafayel shakes his head as he grabs tobari's hand. he rummages through his clothes that were mysteriously deposited on the ground, and finds his phone. he opens an app and goes through the prompts, before pulling out the options so tobari can order.
he's actually about to offer them both to shower, but...
tobari is sadly... correct. ] Pick what you want, and you go first. I wanted to get some ideas in my journal so it'll take me a minute, anyway.
[ ignores tobari, so he can take care of him first this time!!! ]
[ he makes up for it by eating as much as he wants when he does eat... it's why when he takes the phone, he taps on quite a few things... hungry!!! a lot of them are seafood though so rafayel can also pick at the dishes as he pleases... ]
Ah... if you're sure then.
[ he'll agree to it just because he also doesn't want to get in the way of rafayel's creative process. he likes seeing him sketch and everything anyway... when he's done ordering, he'll hand the phone back to rafayel to order
and then stop to get rafayel's bag to carry it over to the couch for him so he doesn't have to get up. still doting... he'll go to take a shower after that though. he will probably be impressed at the nice bathroom while he's there ]
With how much you're tapping away, I thought you were the hungry caterpillar...
[ he's so annoying. but, he seems weirdly pleased about it. as much as tobari dotes on him, he'd like to think he expends his own amount of effort in making sure he was well cared for. it's why he's smiling as he puts in his own favorite dishes. the sweet shrimp here was good, so also adding that to cart, and can't forget about dessert. he heard their tradition confections were popular...
he hits send on the order, before he notices that tobari already brought his bag over. he moves his clothes out of the way, before he begins opening the sketchbook, and working on some outlines. this time, however... he seems keen on keeping whatever he's working a secret as he instantly puts all his stuff away the second tobari steps out of the bathroom. before it becomes too obvious, he greets him happily with a— ] There's my worm...
[ a secret... what the hell... tobari frowns a little bit when rafayel is putting everything away. for the umpteenth time he's walking out of the bathroom with wet hair but he won't let rafayel fix it for him this time!! he also needs to wash up!!! though tobari has also made himself comfy in the nice yukata robes that the place provides.... he really likes it here he's very pleased
even though he's frowning at rafayel's actual words ]
Wrong. Try again. I won't kiss you until you say something better.
[ he sighs, as he recognizes the stubborn look on tobari's face. he was about to reach for a towel, but... he decides he should also just hop in the shower. he is kind of a mess, and while he's not shy in front of tobari when it comes to his body, he is a little embarrassed.
he brushes himself off as he stands up and just gives tobari a small pat on the back. ]
Worms are still very beloved, yeah? The birds especially like 'em. [ pecks tobari on the cheek. ]
Aaaand, it wasn't in the rules that I couldn't kiss you first.
still, he does end up walking towards the bathroom, but not before trying to poke tobari on the side. stop being so on-guard to your boyfriend's kisses!! ] You don't like being a baby, or a worm... I'm running out of options here.
[ he'll think about it in the shower. (he won't) ]
The world is vast, Mister Artist. I'm sure you'll find something.
[ THAT DOESN'T MAKE HIM A BABY OR A WORM? you rude lil shit. but tobari just lightly nudges raf's hand... no... go get clean!
tobari will wait for the food to arrive then, letting himself sit on the couch. he won't go through rafayel's sketches but he does retrieve a book that he's been reading... it is probably one of rafayel's books on the ocean or art because learning about what his boyfriend likes is something important to tobari too. though now that he's not occupied with keeping up with rafayel, he does start feeling the heaviness of his eyelids...
he could find any number of nicknames to call tobari. the matter of the fact is, does he want to? especially when he's acting so grumpy (it's cute in his mind). it's why he actually zones out during his shower, and just sort of re-hydrates, before he eventually steps out. has it been over half an hour already? he checks the clock, before he does hear a small sound at the door. it looks like it's their food?
but, before he goes to answer, he notices that tobari has dozed off with his book in his hand. he can't help but to smile a little as he reaches over to gently push him slightly to his side, and places a blanket on top of him.
tobari does go with the gentle push easily enough, even though the sensation of the slight slump does wake him up enough. he blinks even as his face hits the pillow and he feels the blanket, grumbling even though he definitely was the one tired enough to just fall asleep like that.... ]
[ he's going to give him a gentle kiss on his eyelids as he heads to the door. he comes back seconds later. there's a cart now in the doorway, which holds some of the trays he couldn't manage to in one trip. he places the first one down on the secondary room, in which a long dining table is, and then returns for the second and third.
he didn't realize that they ordered so much, but it probably doesn't help that he also asked for the desserts too. which, he leaves on the cart near the entryway for now. though, he is pulling out the tea. when he's all done, he goes back to tobari. ]
The food is covered, so you should be able to rest a little longer, sleepyhead.
[ honestly… the little kisses are soothing and he is tired enough to believe there’s nothing else that needs to be done for a second. so he does return to dozing mostly against his will when rafayel gets all of their food brought in. sorry tobari committed the cardinal sin of letting his appetite run away with him while he was super hungry.
but he stirs again at the sound of rafayel’s voice and gets with the program… right. food. he’ll reach out to catch rafayel’s wrist with a yawn, moving to sit up ]
No… I’m good, we can eat…
[ he figures rafayel won’t eat until he does so that means they have to eat together and the sooner the better ]
[ HELP... at least, they don't have to worry about a late night snack...
seeing tobari stir again is actually really adorable. he wonders if this is what people who have a pet feel like? cuteness aggression wasn't just a concept written in academic papers? as he actually decides to get up, rafayel offers him a gentle hand to get him back up on his feet. ]
This is because you always push yourself. You have to promise me to eat a lot to regain your energy. But, I got everything set up. [ if he seems excited, it's because he is... he likes being able to spoil a sleepy tobari. ]
[ tobari will take that hand even as a second yawn catastrophically hits him... he rubs at his eyes even as he starts to shake off all the sluggishness and walk in the direction that rafayel leads him... ]
Mm... thanks...
[ oughghgh sleepy ]
But you don't have to tell me twice. I'm starved...
[ he needs to eat enough for both breakfast and lunch!!! it's gonna happen it's time to chow ]
[ seeing him sleepy like this is kind of rare and while there is a desire to pick on him, he does end up diligently leading him towards the next room.
once they both take a seat for their meal, rafayel fills tobari's cup with warm tea. it should be good for his digestion. ( tiktok male ragebaiter voice ) ] Wow, you're really inhaling that. You look like a cartoon character... [ teasing, when in reality, he enjoys watching tobari eat.
but, maybe because of his habit of having breakfast and lunch, he really can eat a lot in one sitting?
rafayel is kind of amazed... going to poke his cheek. ]
[ ignoring the fucking ragebaiting voice because it's true that tobari is probably just happily eating... he likes good food... he likes japanese food... when he swallows down the next bite, he turns his head toward the poke and nips at rafayel's fingertip ]
Don't just watch me. Make sure you eat too. It's good. The kitchen worked hard to prepare it.
[ scolding! even as he drinks the tea that rafayel poured for him... thank you honey ]
