Then he rolls over, his entire tail flipping at once along with him without budging an inch, dangling both arms over the arm along with his head. How does he not have a serious crick in his neck by now?]
Mrrrgh. No.
[He's totally awake, he's just hoping that whatever Sparkling wants isn't going to require him to move. Well, he's awake now, anyway. He wasn't a moment ago, but... Sparkling's voice can just pull him back out of himself like that, you know?]
Why, what's up?
no subject
[Sparkling replies as he quietly steps around the couch, turning an ear in the direction of the radio he keeps near the TV. It seems that everything is still off from the night prior though, so he doesn't need to go around turning things down. He figures it best to have Vampire's full attention if they're going to actually try to talk about this.
He just wishes his heart would stop hammering so, to the point where he's certain Vampire must be able to hear it.]
It isn't anything urgent. I just wanted to speak with you, is all.
[There's a moment where he considers having a seat in one of the chairs opposite the couch, but after eyeing the way Vampire's all coiled up on the cushions...he thinks of a better alternative.]
May I...?
[He indicates....well, what sliver of available space might actually be on the couch right now along with the rest of Vampire's body.
no subject
Yeah, of course! You don't have to ask, Sparky!
[Not even if Vampire wasn't cold blooded and feeling constantly warmth starved! He even pulls some of his coils aside to widen that one possible bit of actual couch cushion space - good thing Sparkling's small now, huh.]
Hell, you can even sit on me like a couch if y'want. Not like I move much, heheh.
no subject
Goodness.
He shakes himself back into the present, bringing a paw up to anxiously groom the side of one cheek for a moment now that he's here and Vampire is looking at him expectantly.]
It's about the other day. We left things......a bit unresolved.
no subject
[The whine in Vampire's voice is keening as he flops over on top of himself, sprawling his torso in the other direction now across Sparkling's lap. Look, if you give a mouse a-
-uh
-if you give a cookie a snake body? I got nothin'. But what else is having so much length good for if not layers of cuddle, right?]
no subject
If he wasn't red under all of that fluff before, he sure is now.]
Y-yes, but that isn't...quite what I meant...
[His nose twitches as he tries to look at Vampire directly, wanting to be addressing him properly when he says this.]
We didn't...establish the status of our relationship. [To put it bluntly, and also needlessly wordy.] Which is partly my fault, I...did get a bit caught up with work.
no subject
Huh? Establish the status? Ehhhhhh... you mean like, are we going steady or whatever? Do we even really have to?
[It's enough to him, he thinks, to have realized that Sparkling seems to return the feelings he's been trying to sweep aside for so long - and they can kiss! If uh, if Sparkling isn't a rabbit forever now, maybe. Anyway, Vampire's never been one to try to label or categorize everything. That just seems exhausting. But if Sparkling wants to, though...]
no subject
I wouldn't call it that, so much...
["Going steady" puts an implication on them both that Sparkling feels might be...a little too restricting, especially when they're both so new to this to start. Not that he doesn't intend to be totally devoted to Vampire, if...they are what he hopes they are.
Either way, he imagines that's what Vampire is thinking. So he decides to clarify, stroking his paw through Vampire's hair.]
What I mean to ask...is if we are partners now, or not.
Boyfriends.
no subject
Boyfriends...
[Then, in a flash - maybe a bit too fast; he still hasn't quite learned how to curb that urge to move at striking speed when excited - he's pulled himself upright, hands on Sparkling's shoulders as he almost pins him back against his own coils.]
Sparky!!! Are we boyfriends now?? I mean, can we be?? Can I tell people that??
no subject
[Sparkling exclaims softly in spite of himself, the fluffy white and yellow fur all around the back of his neck and shoulders bristling with surprise when Vampire moves so suddenly towards him. As long as he's a Pooka, he won't be able to completely shake that immediate prey instinct, the compulsion to just go completely still in the hopes that a potential predator will drop the chase. But...he knows better than to think this really means anything, and thus forces himself to relax.
A hard thing to do when the topic at hand is enough to leave his heart pounding.]
I- I thought I was asking you that...
[He sighs, but...it's in a good natured way, his ears laying back against his head.]
...I would like it very much if we were. You can tell people as much as you'd like.
