[ The waitress comes over to deliver their food! Oria gets some madeleines with tanzanian peaberry coffee. That's some of the more expensive coffee they brew here. It has hints of lemon, peach, and black tea. ]
There's nothing wrong with liking cute stuff. If anything, it makes it easier to get gifts for you.
When Halloween comes around, you can have them all then.
[Less guilt on Sinclair for throwing away all the boxes. For some reason people keep giving them to him??? It's very strange.
The waitress comes over with Sinclair's burger and his yuzu soda. It's nice. Not too big, which means Sinclair can eat it without getting messy.]
Mmm...[Actually, he knows Oria has a good knowledge of guns, considering his weapon skin in game, but] What do you prefer then if you don't like cute things?
Like... in terms of materialistic things? If not, my answer is gonna be food. A nice meal.
[ Of course it would be food. ]
But if it's for a special occasion, I think it would make me happy. My dad doesn't really come home often—he sometimes sleeps in the corporate office because he's so busy.
[ He bites back from saying "despite everything", but his feelings are still true. He does love his family a lot.
He looks at the plate of chocolate cake, neatly cut into a pretty slice with two small forks towards both of them, one each.
It's a couple discount.
Oria is not short on money, but he still likes to partake in things like this, so he grabs his own fork,stabs a small portion of the slice and holds it out to Sinclair. ]
Wh-[Blushing a little. It's somehow different when Oria does it, than when other people try to do this to him (or maybe it's because that's a game, Sinclair can ignore it?). He takes a bite, prim and neat, pulling back to savour it]
Right? This cafe is more known for their cakes and coffee. All the other things are good too, but those two are top notch. It also happened to be not so far from your place, so it was a big bonus.
[ He seems pretty proud of himself about that. All the stars really aligned to make this work. ]
[ Oria leans in to eat the cake. Delicious chocolate cake. Yummy. It's Oria's turn to feed Sinclair, so he holds out a piece of cake to him... and if Sinclair goes for it, Oria will keep inching it away from him whenever he tries to take a bite. ]
[ Oria keeps smiling even with the icing on his face. He could just get a napkin and do the whole manners shtick, but Oria is here on a date, not a meeting. So he wipes the icing off his own face with a thumb and licks it off.
[Sinclair's gaze flickers a little as he rests his cheek against the palm of his hand. He really can't avoid Oria's gaze at all. And for that, Oria gets another forkful of chocolate cake]
Mm...I can. [He just wants to pout] I don't mind. But I feel like I should say it anyway, so you know.
I guess if I actually minded, I would have said something. [ He's not that much of a pushover. And he knows Oria listens well] It's you, so it feels nice, even if I also feel like I should be embarrassed.

But they're so...sugar-y.
[Squishy? Weird? Gross? Sinclair doesn't want them]
no subject
[ So what better analogy would there be of eating little sugary chicks with glee in front of a blond guy who's always related to a hatching chick? ]
So, peeps are perfect for that.
no subject
[??? ??? But the taste...]
no subject
[ Just go nom. ]
I don't really enjoy cute things very much, so I don't care about them... I know other people do though, like you.
no subject
I'm that obvious?
[Most guys don't after all. He does like cute food. But not...that]
I didn't think peeps were easy to eat though...
[It's so hard to get down because of the taste]

[He knew that, but he does like hearing when Oria shows it. It's sweet. Not going to call Oria cute aloud.
Food is always the obvious answer, but]

Oh, it's really good...

[ He seems pretty proud of himself about that. All the stars really aligned to make this work. ]
Now feed me! Ah~

[How is Oria able to do this with a straight face. Blushing, but he gamely picks up his fork to feed Oria]

?
???
Hopefully no one is looking their way twice because this is a little embarrassing to begin with but now]
Hey--[pouting] That's mean.
no subject
But you like it.
[ Sinclair keeps saying that he's mean, but doesn't do anything about it— ]
no subject
Do I?

[ Oria keeps smiling even with the icing on his face. He could just get a napkin and do the whole manners shtick, but Oria is here on a date, not a meeting. So he wipes the icing off his own face with a thumb and licks it off.
And he watches Sinclair the entire time. ]

You don't seem to mind a lot of things, actually. You never really outright said no to them.

[Modesty is a hard thing to unlearn?]
no subject
[ He thought Sinclair would have been a little more uptight about it, but no... he can see traces of Sinclair becoming a kissing fiend. ]
no subject
[Flustering a little and nearly spilling his soda. Aaaaaaaaa]
no subject
[ Sinclair?? Please. ]
Also because I thought you would have been stingy about kisses, but you're like a little puppy that wants more.
no subject
Do you have to describe me like that?
[He's so embarrassed now he could sink into the floor and die. Too bad he can't just log off in real life]
