WHAT 10/10 would post again
WHERE Everywhere
WHEN Day 144

[Today there are little bubbles popping up whenever you're near someone. They seem like . . . testimonials or reviews? Like "X is a great person, excellent listener. Only four and a half stars because they sing too loudly in the shower." If you've only just met, it's just your first impression. Or maybe you can check out the bubbles that are now attached to that person, so you can decide if you're interested.]

[whenever you jump someone in the post, include your character's, uh, honest mental review of them, at the top of the comment. also free to assume you can see other peoples' unless otherwise stated]

[wry] I like to think so. I've done pretty well for myself. With good support.

[leans up and kisses him lightly]

[oh. is this happening? Steve leans in, returning the kiss softly, a little hesitant waiting to see if he'll push it further]

[Mikk is fairly sure he ruined the mood, but it's a soft, lingering kiss, exploratory and gentle]

[it's a different mood than it was before, but that doesn't mean Steve's any less interested in having this. He reaches up to cup Mikk's cheek in one hand, parting his lips slightly, coaxing him just a little]

[laps into his mouth, letting out a sigh]

[gives a contented sound in reply, twisting his tongue with Mikk's, willing to let him deepen the kiss]

[shifts around to sit in Steve's lap, back bowing to kiss him since he's, you know, a tall boi]

[a very tall boy. Steve makes a bit of a startled sound against his lips, but quickly settles a hand back at the small of Mikk's back, holding him in, tilting up to keep kissing him]

[closes his eyes, kissing gently and trying to force himself to calm down again after talking about that]

[Steve is at least a very good kisser? he's dragging his fingers gently along the nape of Mikk's neck, soothing]

[shivers, breaking the kiss and resting his forehead against Steve's]

Memories are tiring.

[catches his breath, staying pressed together]

They can be, yeah. But I'm glad you shared yours with me.

Thank you. I've wanted to...

[nods a little, brushing his knuckles across Mikk's cheek]

I'm glad we had the chance.

[lifts a brow, smiling a bit wryly] Well. Sometimes you have to make the chance happen.

The truth is I'm messed up and lonely, but who isn't?

I think we all in our own ways, yeah. But at least if we've got each other, we're not that lonely?

We do have each other. I'm grateful for that. I've told Vasily a dozen times that he keeps me together here, really.

He does the same for me, yeah. But you've been a big part of that as well.

[brows raise] Oh! Have I? I'm glad.

You have, yeah. You've been there for Vasily and you've been there to help me as well.
