[ A beat, and Akashi takes a moment to put a hand on his hip. It looks like he's seriously stresses out about something, and he is. It hasn't even been an hour, and he feels like he's been around Kise a little too long. ]
[Okay, now he's worried. He's seen that face a few times before, the "I'm seriously thinking about some shit" face and he doesn't ask anything until Akashi speaks up again.]
Oh.
[Was it...? He didn't do anything bad, right? Hell, sanguis urges are very nice towards him today he feels like singing. But, it seems like that's just on his side of things.]
You think...? I mean! I guess, but- [he's not the most eloquent person around]- sorry if I did something... [Kise mutters, his ears falling down a bit.]
[ Oh. Oh. He didn't mean to make Kise feel bad... now it's like his chest sinks a little, feeling down because Kise is down. Akashi has to fix this quickly. ]
You didn't do anything.
[ He takes a deep breath and then reaches for the top of Kise's head so he can give the blond a pat on the head. ]
[Now he feels like a kid being coddled and praised by his mom- it's a very weird mix of feelings because earlier he wanted to snuggle up with him and growl at people interrupting.
But it does get a small giggle out of him, his ears twitching a bit-]
You know, I'm starting to think Midorimacchi and you teamed up to give me head pats for whatever reason when you see me with wolf ears.
[At least he washes his hair often so it's soft and nice to touch.]
[ He looks a little unhappy at the idea... but honestly, when Mayuzumi and Emerald do it, it felt really nice. It was warm and it made him feel really comfortable. ]
[Kise runs two pressed fingers over his mouth as if zipping up a bag-]
My lips are sealed!
[He can guess it's a pride thing not to allow Kise to pet him but... it feels good. There's no real harm in it, right? Kise's hand is gentle, as are his fingers, as they brush through Akashi's hair. The bunny ear feels almost like velvet... he doesn't keep his hand there though! It's just a brush! A small one...
Now that he thinks about it, does this count as if touching a bunny? He never touched bunny before.]
Mmm... so different than my ears. And hair too... I thought it'd be sharper. [It looks sharper. But it's soft instead, almost matching the ears.
Needless to say, Kise is very happy to do this, he's smiling so brightly Xmas lights are not a match.]
[ Ah... this is so embarrassing. The ears twitch slightly when Kise touches them. Akashi is stiff at first, but relaxes into Kise's touch a little while later.
... is he trying to get closer to Kise's hand, tilting his head a little? Yeah................... ]
[Yes, lean into the touch, accept the scratches and pets. Kise's doing it slowly and gently, not to be too overwhelming. He has the urge to run fingers over the soft ears all the time, but he does it only once in a while. It's the softest thing he ever touched.]
Mm, not at all. Just unexpected. But if figures that Akashicchi would take good care of his hair, [Kise smiles.]
[Red cheeks suit him. A lot. Also, Kise's brain needs to stop.
Dancing should be distracting and helpful but, the thought of holding him close...]
Yeah! Yeah, that would be great! [He walks over to the player and looks for a song-] Same steps, right? [Kise asks when he returns, the melody starting off in the background as he offers his hand to Akashi.]

[ Not just "may". He really did. ]

...can I too?
[He'll ask, at least.]

[ Take care of their hair, he means... ]
I may not be a model, but it's important to groom oneself.

[Kise shrugs.]
Guys are usually all 'ah, my hair's too short, it doesn't matter'. But I completely agree with you!
no subject
[ Touching his ears, he means. Akashi did actually like it... just. Kise u_u This is embarrassing. ]
no subject
[He got carried away!
Kise, very reluctantly, removes his hand. There's an impulse to return it but-! Behave, you promised you will, no weird acting out.]
no subject
Thank you.
[ Akashi looks a little flustered, but he clears his throat and goes back to business despite his red cheeks. ]
Let's have another go, shall we? Perhaps a more upbeat song might be nice.

[ It's back to business now. The way to get out of the "flustered state" is to put his foot down and be a slightly angry mom. ]
Be on your toes, Kise.
no subject
Yet. He nods and starts off the dance again.]On it!
