[ more genuine... he's got a point. fine may have been at the top of the world once upon a time, but looking back, they weren't able to mesh in their final performance as fine.

"maybe we should have been satisfied with simply tasting just a small bit of happiness. eichi's words echo in tsumugi's mind as he locks eyes with him, emotions swirling and gripping at his chest. they weren't bad feelings per se, but - ]

Oh, of course! I-- Let's see... I'm trying to find any song that seems familiar, but it sure is hard to nail everything down when Lunatia is a melting pot of universes, huh.

[ there are some songs in here that don't seem to be pronounceable by human tongue at all. nevertheless, tsumugi was able to find something that seems... vaguely happy? and hopeful. this does nothing to repair what happened back then, but -

ugh, he's got to stop overthinking it. eichi's just here for a good time as well, so tsumugi shouldn't put a damper on things like he normally does. ]

[finethanks]

[It's a nice song. Light, hopeful, vaguely happy... Eichi puts his all into it, and they don't know the song so they probably each mess up at least once, but it creates laughter. At least from Eichi's side... Genuine laughter.

It's some time after that, when he's still laughing and clapping at the end of it, which had turned so fast paced that it was almost impossible to keep up with, that he leans over and touches Tsumugi's shoulder. He's smiling brightly, warmly, and the touch is fond enough, lingering enough that Chroma blossoms beneath it.]

Tsumugi.

[Eichi's eyes are twinkling, and for once, he looks happy. Relaxed.] Thank you... for giving me this chance again. I'm having a good time already.

[They can have fun, just the two of them... they can act as friends.]

[ friends... they're really friends now. like this, they've finally lived out what it really means to be a normal high-schooler, with the proverbial bloodshed they'd caused. just seeing eichi's happy, relaxed face like that is making tsumugi swell up with emotion, that -

one drop, and then two. tsumugi didn't realize that tears have welled up in his eyes, and it's utterly embarrassing to start crying from all this, he knows that - but he's sniffling softly and removing his glasses to wipe off the tears with the back of his hand.

it wasn't like eichi's doing anything wrong this time, either. no - they did something right this time around. ]

[finethanks]

Tsumugi?

[It doesn't look like he's crying out of sadness, but seeing him like that still stuns Eichi. He sets the microphone down next to himself, moving his hands to cup Tsumugi's face, holding it in view, his own expression hesitantly questioning. Tears... tears, tears of happiness? Can it be? It's not that he's messed up again, is it?]

Come now... don't cry. [It can't be that he messed up. The expression doesn't match up with that. It really is out of happiness...

That makes his chest hurt, though. That Tsumugi would have to feel so relieved now, after so long. That it took so long for this... He really was an idiot. Eichi swipes his thumbs up to help wipe the tears away, leaning in so that their foreheads can touch together. Ah... he feels it, too. But he won't let himself tear up here. Not when he's the one who's caused so much suffering himself.

Smiling a little, again, he speaks lower, for how close they are:]

We have much more food and music to go through, don't we?

[ his face was already flushed from all the crying, but it took eichi cupping his face and comforting him with such close proximity to stop tsumugi from embarrassing himself even further. he can't exactly hiccup when eichi managed to take his breath away like this, after all. ]

Mm, you're right. Sorry.

[ he shakes his head a little, raising a hand up to press one of eichi's hands onto his cheek and closing his eyes. he can be so beautiful sometimes that it's distracting, and even now, tsumugi still thinks that he isn't worthy to stand by him.

but they're here now, so that's a moot point. it's something for tsumugi to smile more genuinely about. ]

So this is how having your wish granted feels like. It's nice. [ wouldn't mind experiencing that again. ]

[finethanks]

...Isn't it?

[Nice, he means. He's not sure what to do, to be honest. If he apologizes now, it makes too light the things in the past. He still fears that, even now. But he can't avoid him or run away either. Instead... he thinks he has an idea.]

I may be late in saying so, but I'd like to be able to enjoy ourselves just like this. To move forward and see what lies ahead. I can't make up for the past, no matter what you might say... but perhaps there's still some hope for the future.

So...

[Ah, this might be too much, but he can't stand to hear those sad words from Tsumugi about how he didn't know what having a wish granted feels like. So, Eichi leans in, speaking softer.]

Let's see where the future takes us, Tsumugi.

[There, he presses a delicate kiss to his lips, meant to be a short peck... even if he does linger closely after it.]
