[ he picks you up and princess carries you back to their room so he can set you on their bed ]

Okay, let's be real here. I've had moments where I've questioned your humanity, but that was only when we were fighting over something stupid because you can be kind of high maintenance at times.

[Burrowed against his collarbone until Eiji puts him down.]

Excuse you, I'm nothing of the sort. And I'm pretty sure whatever level of domestic partnership we're in was probably something you consented to so that says more about you than it does me.

[ he climbs into bed with you and reaches over to drag you against him so that you're leaning on him ]

How many times have I threatened to throw out all of your hairspray because you pissed me off? I don't even know. That's how many times it happened. I've lost count.

[This is the strangest thing. It's so strange. He settles, worming until he fits just so against Eiji's side and that's strange, too. Did he always fit there? Had he ever tried to?]

Good news for you: I am not the least bit interested in doing anything with hair spray at this exact moment.

[ he wraps an around around your shoulders in a relaxed manner, almost as if he's used to doing this ]

That just worries me.

[Frowning and trying to get comfortable, twisting to look at your hand. Weirddddd.]

Having fantastic hair doesn't mean I always think about hairspray.

Yeah, but you could use hairspray in a number of dangerous ways that I wouldn't put past you.

[A chuckle.]

I mean it is flammable.

That's what I'm saying!

Except it would be stupid for me to make use of that since there's a high concentration of it on my own head.

[Setting his chin on your shoulder and giving you a judgmental frown.]

Think these things through, Eiji.

That doesn't help, you know. You could always wait till after you take a shower and then use it on me.

[Squinting.]

If you're worried I'm going to set you on fire with hair spray why are we here in this position.

I like to think it's worth it and you'll like it so much that you'll forget about any murderous urges you have against me.

[His face scrunches in something that might be amusement, but he promptly buries it in your shoulder.]

This doesn't make any sense. None of it.

[ he slides his fingers into your hair, petting you gently ]

Well, do you feel like killing me now?

[Please chirping.]

There's a distinct difference between stupidity-fueled anger and actual murderous intent.

Still, you don't feel like offing me or hurting me right now because it's comfortable and nice like this, right?

If you're trying to bribe me into niceties, yes, it's mostly working. It would help if you shut up.

[ zips his lips ]

[Settles again, but never stays still for very long. Eventually sits up and frowns at you, quirking his mouth.]

So how long did you say we've lived here?

Around six years give or take a couple of weeks.

[Taking his time digesting that.]

...six years. I guess that's a long time for a human, isn't it.

Yeah, it is.

[It's the approximation of a day to him, but it shouldn't be, because apparently he's human.]

[Still frowning, he twists his wrist and sets two fingers against it to feel for a pulse.]

[A moment later those fingers are on his neck, and he sets two of his other hand on Eiji's neck.]

...hm.

What are you doing?
