[ how was he both the mom and the child today... rafayel is too much. tobari will just eat contentedly, though he does also glance over at the scallops after rafayel tries them... tobari eats the smallest scallop afterward, like he's trying to get a sense of what rafayel likes.
the question surprises him though. he raises a brow but his answer is easy ]
No. [ not even close. ] ... it's a lot nicer. [ and also, if he's being honest... he will get another scallop on his fork and lift it up to rafayel's mouth to feed him this time ] And for a while I wasn't sure I'd have a future at all.
[ trying to get out of impoverished conditions sounds like a myth as it was. how could he ever imagine that he'd be in a fancy resort with his devoted lover eating delicious food? no way. it's what gets tobari to slow down a little in his eating, already getting reflective ]
So... I know I'm really lucky. And a lot of that is thanks to you.
[ role reversal. umbreon chewing strawberry asmr...
anyway, when he sees tobari go for a piece of the scallop, he watches him curiously. does he like it?
then he goes in for another piece, and he can't help but to laugh just a little, until he lifts it up? for him? he looks a little surprised as he opens his mouth, taking a bite out of half the scallop. he then chooses a fatty piece of tuna and holds it out for tobari. though, at tobari's words, he can't help but pull the piece back at the last second.
this isn't why he asked!!! ] I did ask, but I have to stop you there. You don't need to thank me for anything. I mean, yeah you are lucky to have a boyfriend with such good looks and otherworldly charms— [ please tell him to stop. ]
But, I still think I'm the one who got a better deal. [ putting down the piece of tuna so he can poke him on the forehead instead. but, he does get what tobari is saying. while the deep sea could be equally harsh and unrelenting; the laws of nature dictating survival... he thinks the human world was full of their own unique hardships he couldn't even begin to fathom.
which is why... ] I'm really glad you're here, and your future... is mine.
[ NOT THE FATTY TUNA BAIT AND SWITCH!! there's this obvious frown on his face when it's pulled away! no! even as he listens to rafayel's words, he's not happy... he's almost pouting....
until his expression sort of settles into something contemplative. he sighs. ]
... you are great. [ he wars with himself for just a second because he said earlier he wouldn't give rafayel a kiss until he took back calling him a WORM but now he's just going to kiss his cheek... ] I'm not going to argue with you about who has it better because we'll never agree.
[ tobari loves rafayel so much that it's a little nauseating. he's never going to be convinced that he's not dating someone who is outlandishly out of his league. he's so lucky and content and couldn't even think about asking more from the gods because he's received so much as is that looking for anything else would feel so insanely selfish and gluttonous ]
But I am yours. [ easily. said maybe too easily ] I'll always be yours.
[ the disappointment at the tuna is soooo outrageously funny...
he'd burst out laughing if he wasn't making a point here. so he clears his throat very official-like, before— ] So you know I'd put up a good fight? [ because he knows he's right!!! but, that said, he can now pick up the piece of fatty tuna now to feed him. this is an acceptable compromise since he did get his kiss. ]
Good, because I have no plans of going anywhere either. [ he says while i guess spy family thread is on the near horizon. which is so funny...
but, he does mean it. lemurians do live and die for love, after all. give it a second before he gets out of hand again. ]
[ he eats the tuna before it gets taken away again!!!!!! rudeass......... :/ ]
I don't think I'd ever forgive you if you set me up for a life like this and then suddenly decided to abandon me...
[ he's so happy right now... what the fuck. though he does also acknowledge that he doesn't think he deserves this life at all, so he's trying not to be too put out about it ahead of time even in a hypothetical... ]
[ the fact tobari can even say something so impossible ... leaves rafayel a little flabbergasted? ] How could I abandon the person who is going to be the father of my children? [ yeah he's still thinking about how they talked about this...
that's how happy it made him...
also why is he making it sound like mpreg. that said, tobari.... why are you like this? the thought doesn't even cross rafayel's mind. ]
[ cute⦠tobari does end up smiling at that, expression softening even as he rolls his eyes. the usual fond exasperation that comes with being with rafayel!! ]
Since you said you were mine, doesn't that mean I can also call you what I want? Whether that's my wittle baby, mommy, or... [ there's an almost mischievous smile on his lips as he tips his head to the side a little in emphasis. ]
Daddy? [ why does this just remind me of his sugar baby era in purg.

So you have to take responsibility.

If you're trying out a new kink, can it wait until after we go to the hot springs? We just got clean.
But if you're just fucking around, can you quit that shit.
