[ they don't say anything in response to that - just inhale a little when kaeya does that, and up close, he might hear a tiny huff of something that feels like a laugh.
[ gazes. the fact that you didnt report this? coward.
oh. well.
this is still deja vu, actually. aquila sort of saw this coming (heh) but he holds still and allows it, head tilting just a bit to allow the kiss to be returned. the fabric of the veil is very gauzy and soft, at least, and despite his cold hands, his mouth is warm and soft.
aquila's the first to pull back, and jokes, quietly - ] Feel like a bride on her wedding day. [ as his mouth pulls up into an amused smile behind the veil. ]
kaeya enjoys the kiss for as brief or as long as aquila allows, his eye fluttering back open a bit as he pulls back as well, though remains close to them regardless. ]
A bride, hm?
[ he smiles at him, lips curled into something genuinely warm. he... can't help it. sometimes you kiss the people you respect. ]
Glad to find something you happened to like... seemed fitting for our job and all.
[ aw a preening bird, kaeya smiles, content as he looks at the pin and then just... lays his head down quietly, focusing alone on the sound of the waves and whatever might beat under his ear. ]

[ well, nothing, but the loss of any of their coverage does seem to be part of it. they still, though.
...
and after a moment, they say, quietly: ] They're closed.
no subject
Liar.
[ no venom, only affection. very softly, he brushes them nose to nose now, a brief little press. ]
Keep them closed...

he will just
hover over their mouth, the veil between them, and press a kiss very tenderly to this bee's lips.

What, did I make your heart flutter?
no subject
they - laugh, actually, and put a hand to their heart, flopping backwards against the chair in a mock swoon. ]
no subject
and when they do that, kaeya joins in the laughter, patting their chest in turn, grinning. ]
So romantic, a seaside wedding.
no subject
[ what ]
no subject
A makeup shop? Do elaborate. Why that?
no subject
Because then you get to look at beautiful people all day.

[ laughing a bit more and giving the little sun pin on their collar a soft tap tap with his fingertip. ]
Better step up my tipping, then.

[ aquila. please.
they tip their chin up a bit, pleased. ] Admittedly, you're better at it than others. This is one of my favorites.

they hum, and reach up to absently stroke a hand through his hair. ]
I've always enjoyed the dawn.
no subject
[ he glances up, the hand still in his hair. ]
Reliable... steady, the promise of light. I do as well.
no subject
[ that has a layered meaning or two in it, neither of which aquila explains. they're still looking out at the ocean, as far as kaeya can tell. ]
