Congrats! You're stuck under the mistletoe with someone. Pucker up, buttercup. It could be forced, or it could be normal--it's your choice!

surprise bitch it's izuleo hour

[annoyings]

Please don't. [ wow, a please. it's acrid and rude, but it's still a please.

the tone of it is also completely dissonant with the soft moment happening here. leo laces their fingers together and izumi doesn't push it off or bitch or whine: he just folds his fingers over the top of leo's knuckles and huffs a sigh. the expression on his face is soft, too, unguarded for once, a face izumi rarely lets anyone see.

he's happy too. happy leo's back, even if he's bad at saying it. happy leo's smiling again, that it's not cracked and desperate anymore. that things--though not perfect--are feeling like a home again.

izumi huffs a sigh, the noise soft. the tea kettle hasn't boiled yet; leo's quiet. izumi could ruin it with this conversation, but it's something they need to talk about, anyway, with repayment festival looming just a few months away, and if they're an island away from the other knights making chaos, then...maybe that time's right now.

tone even, betraying no other emotions (hope, fear, nerves, anything.) ] ...What are you doing after graduation?
