[ You've got mail.

...It's been awhile, hasn't it? But neither single one of you can say that this wasn't an unfamiliar sight.

Still, the reunion for dungeon-running is anything but a less than happy one, no? ]

RESULTS: Here!

[ But if Ganymede had teased him he would have died, and then I would have had to retcon a whole lot, and then where would we be?

There's a bittersweetness to that look on Ganymede's face. But then Ganymede is kissing him, the gentle touch of his lips commanding all of Michel's attention, and he doesn't have to think about that at all. It's fine. He's happy now, and... things can still be worthwhile even if they're ephemeral. ]

...You always think I'm ridiculous.

[ And he'll kiss Ganymede again before Ganymede can deny it just to be stubborn, because they both know full well that it's true. ]

[ Wow. Michel can handle the teasing!! ]

Not alw—

[ How did he know that he would deny it, wow? He makes a look on his face because he dared to intercede with a kiss, and Ganymede knows exactly the reason for it. He'll even return it with no small amount of affection.

But, all the same, he leans back from it after it's done and sticks out his tongue. ]

Not always. Other times you're only a little ridiculous or the opposite of ridiculous—unridiculous.

[ That's not a word. ]

[ Because Ganymede lives to be contradictory, probably?? Michel's gaze lingers on Ganymede's tongue for a second. He really shouldn't stick it out like that if it's not an invitation. ]

Unlike you, I see. Just how old are you, again?

[ But he's relieved that Ganymede's mood has brightened enough again to be silly. Was a promise all it took, no matter how hollow it might turn out to be? ]

[ Hey, if Michel wants to do some tongue-kissing ~~to shut him up~~, even Ganymede wouldn't blame him. ]

Older than you.

[ Prove him wrong. Nyeh. ]

There is absolutely no way that's the case.

[ As if Ganymede could pass for thirty??? He's getting the world's most skeptical look.

~~Which unfortunately doesn't mean that Michel has completely forgotten about the possibility of tongue-kissing.~~ ]

How old are you, then?

[ Ganymede has got at least five more years before he hits thirty, so yeah.

~~Michel might want to engage in that sometime soon since Ganymede is on the loose.~~ ]

You don't remember?

[ It makes a little more mundane all the gaps he's been finding. Maybe he really is jumping at nothing. ]

...Twenty-seven. Twenty-eight at the end of the year.

[ Ganymede gives a pause...does he remember how old he is?

...Yeah, he does. ]

Is that why you selected the moniker 'Winter'? Because you're a winter baby?

That... must have been one of the reasons.

[ It isn't quite right. But he doesn't remember. He frowns only briefly before shaking his head and narrowing his eyes at Ganymede. He hasn't forgotten the original point of contention, which is: ]

And your age?

[ Say it, Ganymede. Admit he's right. ]

I had a feeling.

[ Me like do I want to search my millions of threads to see if Michel ever said or explained it to Ganymede. Let's choose chaos today. ]

...3,025 years old.

[ With a five year old mentality. He's 25. Not 3,000 years old. ]

[ PRETTY SURE HE NEVER EXPLAINED IT PROPERLY TO ANYONE BC HE'S DUMB... jazzhands

Michel is giving that blatant lie the flattest possible stare. ]

...So, twenty-five.

[ Just admit he's right???? ]

[ Michel please explain things- ]

You'll have to kiss me three times to get me to answer for sure.

[ Why is he like this? ]

[ An impossible challenge!! Like Ganymede not being ridiculous. ]

I'll remember that you said that.

[ Turning Ganymede's favored turn of phrase back on him. There's no taking it back now. He cups Ganymede's cheek in his palm and leans in to kiss him firmly. Once... twice... ]

[ A soft puff of laughter, delighted but gentle even when their lips meet, cheeks warming in delight that shines like the morning sky in its light. ]

One more...

[ Just one more kiss. ]

One more.

[ He can't quite fight the smile that tugs at a corner of his mouth. As dire as everything had seemed not that long before, he feels... like himself again, kissing Ganymede.

He lets his hand slip down to the back of Ganymede's neck. The last kiss is lingering, just a little bolder. His tongue teases along Ganymede's lower lip; this time, less tentative. He's confident in the warmth of his reception, even if it still always seems like a wonder. ]

[ Good that he can't.

Ganymede even laughs into the kiss, the light weight of the other's tease feeling delightfully ticklish. ]

I guess this means you're right after all, doesn't it?

[ Not that he ever was so serious about it. But this happiness he is holding in his hands? This is worth every bit of loving severity he can ever easily summon within himself. ]

That much was obvious in the first place... You just never concede anything.

[ So he let himself be pulled into Ganymede's ridiculous ruse for... well, it's not as though he needs much of an excuse to give in to the impulse of kissing Ganymede, these days.

He doesn't regret it. Even if it means Oria will be angry later at him putting off the inevitable just a little longer. That laugh just now feels worthwhile to him. ]

You enjoy it, though. It's probably the challenge, isn't it?

[ Ganymede teases.

And the fact that there were kisses being wagered here, but it isn't like those can't be given at any moment. Though, it probably adds something a bit more to the experience.

A light-hearted one, even admist all the darkness and confusion. ]

No, I really do like things that are easy...

[ Does he seem like he goes for the challenge just for the sake of it? Isn't that Ganymede?

But he undermines this little grumble by kissing the top of Ganymede's head lightly. ]

Do you really?

[ Ganymede asks ~innocently~ as he feels the kiss pressed atop his head.

In return, he leans up to press one on the other male's cheek, then, of course...his nose, using his shoulders as leverage. ]

Why is it always my nose?

[ Truly, no one else suffers like he does. ...But it's a little cute of Ganymede as well. He squeezes his waist a tiny bit in return. ]

Because the nose knows.

[ Ganymede lets out a delightful sound of surprise when his waist is squeezed a little. ]

You're still... ridiculous.

[ Compared to him, Ganymede's moods are mercurial. But there's something comforting about that, too. Perhaps that's why hope comes so easily to Ganymede, when nothing seems so permanent and irreversible.

He gives him one more kiss on the forehead, because he can. ]

You love me exactly the way I am.

[ Ganymede laughs again and he wants to give another kiss too!! He will aim for Michel's other cheek.

It's true. Some people might find it offputting, but with Michel...they fit like a glove. ]

[ He's already said it once tonight... Is Ganymede really greedy enough to push for twice? He leans down enough to accept that kiss and gives him a little nuzzle to his jaw in turn. ]

...Mm.

[ It's the "mm" of his agreement, which Ganymede certainly knows by now. ]
