Music wasn't often Nobu's main form of distraction. There were specific cases when he needed it to calm him, focus him. Tonight, he was going to take Kysaly away from their shop to a nearby place. It was sudden, a spontaneous appearance like lightning striking. Good thing that was his specialty. Wearing pale, low-profile geta (wood sandals) with black slacks and a vibrant yellow, satin, long-sleeve button up that had the top two buttons undone for breathability, he stood casually and jammed to music. What was this? Usually he cracked away like a storm as per his nature. There he was, retro wired headphones playing emotional alternative music. The glasses he wore were perfectly around with black frames and lenses. Tapping his fingers against the wall, the former hero-in-training would marathon through the perplexing nature of his thoughts. The kiss on the cheek, the unique mismatch of amethysts in their eyes, the homely vibe of the cafe. It was a lot. Humming along to his music and bobbing his head gently, he would raise his hand. With wriggling fingers, lightning danced between them. Like leaves in the wind, the energy swirled around and within. It was a reminder that he wasn't great, he was just charismatic when he wanted to be. Kicking off the wall, he took the block-long walk to Kyss Cafe and prepared himself. It was the evening time, a nice but often vacant hole-in-the-wall restaurant was especially dead at this time. Nobu wasn't anything spectacular, but he might as well have fun. Sliding into the cafe and standing from the entrance, he kept his hands in his pockets. The only customer within left and he looked over to Kysaly. "Hey Kys, want to get out of here?" Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] the more I get to know you[attr="class","AudenBody"] KysalyIn all honesty, Nobu had been on their mind a lot. It wasn't everyday that they were actually attracted to someone, and that something actually felt like it could happen. Kysaly was a fickle person, someone that didn't get close to those unless it was necessary. Even for customers, most of the time they were seen as just that, someone that enjoyed the coffee or sweets that they offered and nothing more. People were too busy to do much more than say a compliment or to be a repeat customer. Most of the time, they paid no mind to Kysaly as their importance was lesser than the things they created.
It was different with Nobu though, because it felt like they came in for the coffee and sweets, but wanted to stay for Kysaly instead. When they thought about it, it made their stomach wiggle with excitement. It was something special to have someone to want to look good for. Because of that, Kysaly had taken to wearing dresses these last few days. It was nothing that they couldn't work in, but it was something that they felt would for sure attract his attention. They placed a small orange flower clip in their hair as they waved off their last customer. As they looked towards the door, Kysaly felt their cheeks redden a bit. They looked at the time, then back at Nobu. "Um, yeah, sure." They looked around a bit, patting themselves as if they were looking for something. Putting their apron away, they'd turn off the machines and start to clean what was necessary. "If you can just wait a bit, feel free to get some cookies if you want."

Attraction was dangerous. It made eyes turn into gemstones, the colors of a person's appearance turn to mana and put the viewer in a trance. The volatility was exciting, meeting so briefly and having such momentum was rare. Most people, reasonably, didn't like such an intrusive level of flirting. Nobu saw Kysaly react, so he leaned. The more they reacted, the more he leaned. Now he couldn't stop thinking about being inches away once more. Maybe even closer. Slowly walking further in as Kysaly cleaned frantically, Nobu would just 'mhm' in response before being behind the counter and resting against the wall, chest showing like he was exposing midriff. He saw the draw Kysaly wore, appreciating its warm style. Fidgeting with his lighter, he was tempted to step out for a smoke but wanted to smell good. Using a light, quality scent he procured from a friend in the fashion business, he would hope it would tickle Kysaly's nose and make them anticipate the next steps. "You look good, Kys. I can't wait to stare at you all night." Would they spend more than an hour or two together? How long could Kysaly stand Nobu? The real test of their connection will come from emotional attraction, the physical was easy. As to not fail at being a gentleman AND their personal incubus, he drifted forward and came close to Kysaly. "I'm making you close up, need help?" Hand on the table and leaning over their shoulder, he asked gently. Softly. Sensual. Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] the more I get to know you[attr="class","AudenBody"] KysalyThis felt nice. Kysaly felt his eyes on them, watching them without a care with every movement that they did. They would sniff the air a bit, smelling something sweet that most have been coming from Nobu. He looked good, he smelt good, he was good, right? Maybe that would be told with time, but for now Kysaly was entranced by him. "Stare at me?" They'd blink, almost perplexed by the idea as if it was something that shouldn't happen. He was going to stare at them because he was interested; that thought didn't truly process into Kysaly's mind. "You're welcome to it." They tucked some hair behind their ear, side-eyeing him as he started to move closer.
As he leaned closer to them, Kysaly would purposefully lean back onto them, almost so that his chin could go on their shoulder. "It's fine, I was going to close up anyways soon. It's been pretty slow today. All I really need to do is make sure everything is off and cleaned." Kysaly would look over to him, eyeing him as if they were expecting something, before turning their attention to wiping down the coffee machines. "You did say you would surprise me, and here you are, surprising me." Kysaly was more than happy that it was happening; they probably would have closed down no matter what time. "Are you happy I said yes?" Notesᓬ Orange floral dress

Kysaly was a unique being. They had an energy that could easily intoxicate someone, which made Nobu surprised that the cafe wasn't busier. They also had an elegance that could not be ignored. The way they leaned into Nobu's advances was shocking, as he expected someone he flirted with to fluster so hard they couldn't function. The grounded nature of romancing someone in a cafe pulled him from the curse that was vigilante life. A fantasy that things could be normal formed as soon as he stepped through that door. As Kysaly leaned into him and they met each other's eyes, his hazels leaning over his lenses and their amethysts shining back, temptation almost lead his lips. No, it wasn't time. It wasn't earned...by either of them. Stepping back and casually dancing about with his feet in a moseying step, hands in pocket, he watched Kysaly finish closing. "Oh yeah, I am happy. Anybody would be, you're beautiful with a touch of mystery." With a deep but sultry exclamation, he would step forward slowly. "Dinner with you, getting to know you, no expectations on you." He wouldn't lie, but he had other thoughts that simmered. He wanted it to be a nice invitation, even if they'd be teasing each other the whole time. As time passed, he would send a quick text before putting his phone on do-not-disturb. "Ready, Kys?"Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] the more I get to know you[attr="class","AudenBody"] KysalyKysaly would just smile, looking over Nobu with enthusiastic eyes. He was intriguing, and more bold than they could ever imagine. Kysaly never wanted to assume that anyone was into them, but it felt like Nobu was actually interested. Sometimes, it was hard to tell if someone was doing it for attention or to get a reaction out of them. Maybe Nobu wanted to just play with Kysaly, but it felt that it wouldn't make much sense for there to be such an elaborately long con when Kysaly may have went to sleep with him on the first day they saw him.
As Nobu got close, they'd stay still, looking over him once more with their eyes before he pulled away from their reach. "I'm glad. I was expecting you to not come back. You know, it's easy to tease me and not give anything, I was a bit disheartened not to get anything back." Kysaly was mostly talking about how Kysaly had kissed him and not gotten a kiss back. "It made me think that perhaps you had second doubts, or maybe that you were too nervous for me." A smirk, before they'd turn their head to finish the cleaning fast.
Kysaly wasn't usually this bold, but something about having to be confident through their job. Maybe it was because they wanted to make sure that Nobu stayed interested in them in whatever way possible; if they could match his energy, then it would be easier, no? "Kys? That's..." They liked that a lot, as they hadn't considered their store name being used for a nickname. Getting closer to Nobu, they'd offer their hand for him to hold. "Yes, I am." Notesᓬ Orange floral dress

In Nobu's lifetime, too many people were unsure of what they wanted to do. People had dreams, aspirations that they spent years working on but they didn't spend that same time knowing how to lock someone down. Now, he wasn't ashamed to enjoy the romance and spectacle of getting together with someone and riding the storm. Eventually, those storm clouds would clear and there would be another storm to ride. The boldness that was rewarded by Kysaly was what made it easy to randomly show up and offer to take them to dinner. They could have dinner, talk, and let the tension rise without real pay-off because Nobu was used to that. He wouldn't run away if he actually really liked the cafe owner, he just took the present for what it was. When Kysaly mentioned not getting kissed back, Nobu crossed his arms and smirked devilishly. "It's not that I don't want to kiss you. It's pacing." Turning around and grazing the counter behind him, there was static that danced between its surface and his fingertips. A heat that they may learn in time, just differently. "With proper pacing, the tension will heat us up. The electricity will turn to fire." Turning back around and clutching the counter, he watched Kysaly finish up. "I won't be shy. I want you to make me coffee in the morning. Anyways, dinner time." Walking towards the exit and eventually take the sweet Kysaly's hand. Pulling it in and kissing the back of their hand, he would weave his fingers in their's and lead the way. Not far from the cafe was a restaurant that he frequented, one that had a simple menu with complex ingredients. Poke and soju. Enjoying the walk there, Nobu wouldn't rush. He'd let their waltz go for as long as what felt natural. It was only a five minute walk at most, but he wanted Kysaly to feel welcome in his company. "You'll like this place, they keep it easy. Do you drink at all, Kys?" The intent wasn't to wine and dine, though he hadn't lied about not being shy. Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] TitleGoesHere[attr="class","AudenBody"] KysalyIt was great to see that Nobu agreed. As easy as it would be to go fast with him, Kysaly was glad that things were going slow. It made it more obvious that Nobu cared when everything wasn't a rush and that there was thought and consideration placed into what they were doing between them. He was a gentleman, not like some of the younger people Kysaly had been around that made them feel like they were just a plaything for the weekend. "No worries, I understand and agree with you." There was no reason to rush, he would be there if he wanted to be there.
The kiss on their hand made their face light up. Kysaly would gently swing their hands together, occasionally squeezing his hand if he was going too fast or too slow. As they got to the place, Kysaly would lean a bit to look into the place, before looking back at Nobu. "It looks nice, and yeah, I drink a little." It was never enough to get drunk, but just enough to let the edge off. "And yourself, what is your liquor of choice?" As they asked, Kysaly would walk in front of them, pulling them closer to the door with a big smile on their face. Notesᓬ Orange floral dress

Approaching dating as a gentleman was a great way to temper most relationships, frivolous or truly romantic. He was undecided on what he wanted from Kysaly, maybe to maintain the fantasy for as long as he could. Eventually that darkness inside of him would come to the surface and it would be then that this picturesque dating would have to be set aside. For now, he would enjoy the delicacy of Kysaly's hands and the air of maturity. It was not his intention to use Kysaly by any means, he just didn't view himself so highly. So when he showed Kysaly a little hole-in-the-wall place, that was reserved for someone who seemed refined in the right ways. Someone who appreciated the fact that he was a gentleman. Leading them in, he would greet the old lady running the floor with very traditional Japanese. He wasn't sure where Kysaly was at with their lingo, but he didn't think much of it and brought them to a booth. "Good, I'm not picky. I keep it simple, umeshu sours are a favorite. Soju is also an easy go-to." The old lady would come on by, greeting the two of them and complimenting Kysaly's looks before making an endearing joke about Nobu finding someone like them. Ordering some poke and soju, he'd let Kysaly decide what kind of fish they wanted. "I take it you live in Tokyo, yeah? How's it been since moving here?"Small talk. He didn't want to bore them, but he also wanted to know more about them. How did they like it? Will they ever visit home? What interests do they have? Run of the mill, but necessary still. "So, did I really have you clutching your pearls for me to return?"Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] the more I get to know you[attr="class","AudenBody"] Kysaly"Good choices, I knew you had good taste in more than just your dates." A playful wink, but the second they turned around they'd realize just how bold they were being. For some reason, it became easier for them. Nobu made it easier, even if they didn't know why or how.
Kysaly would follow Nobu into the place, nodding and saying thank you in the same dialect that Nobu had used. Sitting down more comfortably after adjusting their dress, Kysaly would pick out some unagi and tuna. "Yes, I do. I actually live in my storer, surprisingly." Below the café was their doctor's office, as well as their house. "It's been alright. I think people are still a bit apprehensive of me because I don't really look Japanese, nor do I know anyone really all that well here. It's been hard to get close to people." Kysaly was being honest, since that was the best thing.
Taking a second, they would take off their gloves, that were a gentle cream lace. Kysaly would answer any question that was given to them honestly as long as they were comfortable with that person. Well... At the very least they tried to do that. At the mention of awaiting his return, they'd get a bit red in the face, before looking off to the side. "Well, you were interesting and on my mind. I wanted it to be mutual." Notesᓬ Orange floral dress

"Oh, yes, I think you'll enjoy my taste." With a matched wink, there was almost a whisper like a secret being shared between them. Well, Nobu didn't want to mortify the old lady as they entered the restaurant. He couldn't resist quipping back, wondering how dear Kysaly would take the comment. He liked seeing the raw, candid moments coming from them. He invited it, and as long as he made them feel welcome then they'd stay. The way they operated was vastly different from each other. Nobu meticulously put on a suit of armor he desperately needed a crafter to upgrade, even if it was just for the sake of convenience. Kysaly operated seemingly solely within their residence, not that he knew that exactly. He would, destiny called for it. "I'm impressed with your Japanese, don't let anybody treat you like a foreigner. They'll fawn over you, they'll isolate you. If anybody does that, let me know."In a not very subtle offer, Nobu would 'take care' of anybody that harmed Kysaly's well-being. Maybe it was a silly way at expressing his toughness, but it was one thing he was good for. Seeing barista blush, their complimentary water would arrive. Nobu would pour the pitcher himself and wait for the old lady to disappear into the back. "Oh, you've been on my mind, Kys. I would be a fool to not return that kiss." Playfully blowing a kiss their way, he would take a sip from his water. They might need plenty of hydration tonight. "I thankfully have a rather nice apartment paid off from when I was a corporate zombie. So whatever business I get into won't be too close to home. I'd suggest once you blow up, you do the same!" Tapping the table with his fingers, he found himself unable to pull his gaze from Kysaly's beautiful eyes. "What's something you want to experience in Japan? A golden item on your list just waiting for the golden ticket?" The questions were tame, but he wondered how the conversation would evolve. There was one in particular that he wanted to ask out of curiosity, but it would open a can of worms that he wasn't ready for. 'Oh what's your quirk?' 'Oh it's this! What about you?' 'Oh, you know, lightning. Just like that vigilante! But, totally not him!'. An obviously poor path. Eventually, their soju would come and they could really loosen up. Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] the more i get to know you[attr="class","AudenBody"] Kysaly"I kept it up my whole life, though being able to understand the dialect difference took a bit of time for sure. I think that it needs more practice. My job has helped me a lot." In reality, both of their jobs have helped them in nailing down the dialect and what it should should like. "I appreciate it though, I'll let you know if I need some help." Kysaly was fine to handle things on their own, even if it didn't look like it. Sometimes, just touching someone and telling them their exact injury and how life threatening it was, was enough to freak anyone out.
With them getting a kiss blown their way, they would just blush a bit embarrassed. Doing PDA was a new thing for Kysaly; most of the time, they were just some person's side piece or a fling that was kept in secret. Kysaly honestly couldn't remember the last time they were in a real relationship, or that someone was proud to show them off.
"I see, hopefully I get to see it sometime." Kysaly would muse, getting out of the awkwardness of their thoughts and re-directing their attention to Nobu once more. "When it comes to a golden ticket, I'm not sure. I think I live pretty modestly. Perhaps going to a designer fashion show could be very cool." Kysaly had already lived a lot of life, so having anything super lofty wasn't really in their radar. Instead, it was easier to think about how to slowly expand with where they were currently.

Dialect was a tricky thing to maintain in some parts of the world. It was so complex, an art in itself. To have someone who came from a place that wasn't known for its Japanese be fluent enough to run a business in Japan itself was impressive. Nobu couldn't hide it, nor did he want to, that he was impressed by Kysaly. Nobu had his ability to be shrewd, but being domestic-only made it easy for him. He couldn't imagine doing foreign relations during his corporate days. "Just be glad we don't need to navigate China's breadth of language. I guess that comes with the territory." A humored 'hmph' followed his words to indicate how he found the beast of Cantonese too wide to tackle. As he drank his water, he felt happy that Kysaly had so casually expressed they'd like to visit his apartment. They were clearly weak to more physical expressions, but they must really want to make that morning coffee. Extending his hand across the table, palm-up and offering to take Kysaly's, Nobu hoped they'd hold hands. "Take my hand, Kys, and hear me." Being playfully dramatic, there was humor and sultriness in his tone. "If you want to make me that morning coffee, you're welcome to it." Then, their soju and poke would arrive and if Kysaly would take his hand, there would be a storm behind it. What would come first? The darkness that clutches Nobu's heart or the ecstasy he experiences when thinking about and being around Kysaly? There was a lot of pain, but pleasure too. Popping open the soju, he'd pour for his lovely companion with a smile on his face. "Cheers to a night to unwind!" Taking the chopsticks, he would do a prayer pose with a ritualistic, "Itadakimasu!" Before continuing heavier flirting, they could enjoy some liquid courage and some food. "I bet you worked all day, please enjoy!"Kysaly

[attr="class","AudenContain"] [attr="class","AudenHidden"] TitleGoesHere[attr="class","AudenBody"] Kysaly"Yes, Chinese is another beast in general. I couldn't imagine that in comparison." Kysaly had learned a few words when they were in Canada, but those were mostly medical terms that were said during surgeries. From what was heard, it wasn't a language that Kysaly had a huge passion for just yet.
When Nobu offered his hand, Kysaly hesitated. It wasn't that they didn't want to hold his hand, but they'd feel things that they didn't want to think about right now. With a smile, they would move to put their gloves back on, but decided not to. "I would like to a lot." A quick hand squeeze, before they would fully grab on and take whatever emotions came at them. "I mean, I would be honored to be able to do something like that with you." Waking up in the morning to someone was always a nice sentiment.
As they focused in on their emotions and pain, Kysaly tried to keep a straight face. It was hard to hold onto someone and to be able to see how much pain they were in. The roughness of their hands, the small aches and pains that they had. There was also pleasure though, the warmth of their hands together, the beating of his heart. It made Kysaly blush, but they tried not to make it obvious.
As the drinks and food arrived, they would move their hands away for a moment to take a drink and eat properly. "Itadakimasu!" They'd reply with a grin, sipping their soju and looking over the food. "I think it is easier to enjoy because you're here, Nobu." Notesᓬ

Had Nobu known that they could feel his pain, he wouldn't have offered his hand. It was a warm gesture, affection that really invites someone in. While the "sharing coffee in the morning" sentiment had a lot of implications, it felt nice. Romantic. There was emotional maturity between the two, neither being the naive kids that malfunctioned at the thought of attraction between one another. Still, had he known that Kysaly could feel all the times he's been burnt by his own quirk, all the times he's been let down... He wouldn't have let them suffer. In ignorant bliss, he enjoyed the moment and the time they got to spend eating. The poke was good, hearty and revitalizing. The vitality they may need required such a complete meal, one way or another. In their moment of shared warmth and sweetness, Kysaly expressed gratitude over Nobu bringing them there. He sipped his soju, making a soft smack with his lips and licking the wetness from them in pure joy. It was one of the few times that Nobu showed a messy side, considering every motion he made was articulate and refined. "Oh, no, the poke would have been great regardless." Teasing Kysaly, he would look so serious before breaking into a smile. "Of course, food is best enjoyed with another and you're so captivating, Kys." With a foot out of its geta, he would lurch it forward and let his sock caress Kysaly's ankle. "It's been a while since I've enjoyed something like with someone else. I know some pretty spectacular shows to attend, I'd love to take you." Treating someone like royalty was how Nobu showed affection. If Kysaly really enjoyed fashion or wanted to experience it since they've spoken of it, Nobu was glad to share that part of himself. He had designer friends he once had as clients that saw Nobu as a good patron for his looks, among other things. "How did my hands feel, Kys?"Kysaly
