[9S tilts his head, the turn of phrase unfamiliar.]

Uhh, no? It just made me feel kind of...tired? Like I can't focus. I think my logic circuits are malfunctioning.

Haha!

[His logic circuits are malfunctioning, that's hilarious.]

That sounds like a buzz to me, honestly. God, that's pretty crazy. Better not have been some permanent damage though. I like you like you are. I'll fight alcohol if it fucked you up.

Haha. [He's not sure what was so funny, but Crow's laughter proves contagious.]

I should be able to recover with some rest, you don't have to fight on my behalf.

[So this is what a "buzz" feels like? He's not sure if he really likes it or not, but he'll try anything once.

Or twice.]

I like you like you are too! You're really cool and easy to talk to!

[What a good kid. Kira would die for him. Kira would kill for him. He's decided that just now, and makes a pointed mental note of it.]

Ah... now you're just tryin' to butter me up~ [He trips a little over his feet as he leans into give Yuki a hug, his arms squeezing around him a little. If he was a person it might be hard to breathe, but he's an android, he's fine, right???]

I think you're already like one of my favorite people on this heap.

No way, I really mean it! Sometimes it's a real pain when I always have to be on my best behavior, and--

[9S is cut off by Crow's embrace, taking a sharp inhale. He looks at him, bewildered, but accepting the embrace all the same--even if he doesn't quite reciprocate.]

R-really? [It's impossible to hide the excitement in his voice. No one's ever told him that before.]

[What a sweet, perfect boy. Was Kira crying? He might be crying a little. How dare he??? Too innocent, like a very young and naive angel.

Instead of answering verbally, Kira grabs Yuki's cheeks again, squishing them but this time just planting a kiss on his lips.]

I'm not a liar, either.

[Oh, more cheek squishing. It's more annoying the second time, and he wants to emphasize that he's not a child, but 9S doesn't have the chance. Because it's then that Crow's visage suddenly fills his vision and he feels something soft press against his lips.

When he pulls back, 9S lifts his finger to cover his mouth. He can hear his pulse hammering in his ears. Whatever he was going to say, he's totally forgotten it.]

Huh?

[He kissed him? Was it an accident? No, it was pretty deliberate, and it definitely happened. He can still feel a ghost of pressure there when he pulls his hand back.

9S fumbles for a response.]

Oh, ah. Haha. Well, I guess that proves it!

[No, he really doesn't get it at all! Humans are his creators, they're not supposed to see androids as their equals, but... Is it wrong that it was kind of nice? He's feeling a clash of emotions, but a sense of euphoria stands above them all. He's never been kissed before.]

...Thank you.

[Kira smiles like a fool at the 'thanks', holding Yuki still by the face as he just kind of stared at the android. It was amazing to look at him. This was an android, a person built, designed by humanity in it's image. And how very like them he was.]

You like that...? I got more where that came from.

[How he hoped humanity cared more for these androids than God did for His creations. But if they didn't, that was fine. He would care for them in their place.]

...Did you maybe. Wanna spend the night with me?

[ venus has been watching this for like. literal minutes. literal minutes of her watching from a respectable distance, all eyes trained on the devil and the android. when kira escalates it to a kiss, one hand flies up to cover her mouth - scandalous! the drama!! two cute boys kissing each other, and even if she's not 9S's biggest fan she's all for kira getting his smooch on!

and then that comes out of kira's mouth, and the other hand comes up to her mouth. oh my god. oh my god is- is kira going to get laid? she doesn't know if she feels scandalized, or proud, or sort of jealous?? she's just SO HAPPY FOR HIM.

she doesn't say anything. she just watches like a giant awkward nerd. if 9S looks over, she'll immediately pretend she hasn't seen anything; if kira looks over, she'll immediately give him two thumbs up.

nice. ]

[Kira is laying down some moves so he can't give Venus a goofy thumbs up in return right now, but you can bet if he scores he'll hi-five her later. Instead he just glances over for a split second to see her covering her mouth, making him smile.]

Oh... You do, huh? [9S wears a lopsided smile, as awkward as ever but definitely taking some pleasure in their back-and-forth. He knows he shouldn't go indulging this sort of behavior, it wasn't appropriate, but he just couldn't help his natural (bi)curiosity. A little flirting couldn't hurt, right?

But when Kira invites him to spend the night, he realizes he has to make a decision. He's watched enough video data to figure out where this is headed, and as strange as it is to imagine a human wanting to copulate with him, he can't really...provide? He hesitates, and then asks in earnest.]

...Is that really okay? I mean, I'm an android, but I'm not a "companion" android.

[Kira can't help but laugh at that. The uncertainty was cute honestly, especially because Yuki's first instinct was to flirt back to him.]

Well yeah. You said it yourself, right? You aren't just programmed to simulate emotions, you have them. Your own emotions, thoughts, opinions. You're a person in your own right.

[That's the only reason he was bringing any of it up. That and he was cute and making himself available of course, which helped a lot.]

You're not a 'companion' android, you're just an android, and you can decide what you do with your body, you know?

[The keyword Crow used was "person". 9S considered androids as living, he considered them people, but that was very different from being human. Hearing that reaffirms his own feelings, even if the state of his autonomy was not so simply put.]

Yeah... [He nods with a smile.] Are you sure you're feeling well enough? I mean, you did need me to walk you back to your room.

[Kira laughs at the concern in his android friend's voice. Look at him, all worried.]

I'm not sick or anything. [Yet.] Just got a little trouble with my balance. I'll be right as rain as soon as I get to sit.

[He's soft with Yuki, running a hand through his hair before planting another kiss on his lips.]

Besides, I'm fine as long as you're with me. [Smooth.]

Well, I can still you get you some water, or food if--

[9S starts to ramble, choking on the rest of his words as he feels Crow's hand pass through his hair. It's a gentle gesture, both comforting and unfamiliar, and leaves him speechless as he feels the warmth of a second kiss on his lips.

He's totally charmed, his cheeks flushed.] Oh... R-right! Me too!

[Believe it or not, Kira is completely charmed too, but he's just better at hiding it. There's just something unmistakably earnest about the android that he couldn't get over.]

Maybe later. Or in the morning. We could get breakfast together, even. You do eat, right?

[I mean he DRANK. Kira was just guessing. He's not sure how literally any of this worked, but he wasn't going to assume. Just ask, right?]

Yeah, eating is fun! But the food that comes out of that device is a little...questionable.

[While they talk, 9S adjusts Crow so he's back properly on his shoulder and starts to lead them down the hall again. He was eager to see where this would go.]

[Kira can't help but laugh at that. Yeah it was. Wierd. He missed regular food.]

Alright~ Then breakfast is a go.

[He noted that in his head. It was kind of wierd to actually think about The Morning After, but this whole situation was a little weird. Space station, android, drinking with an android on a space station.

He's mostly quiet as they walk, sobering up just a little, though he doesn't stop leaning on Yuki, just kind of enjoying the closeness as they made it to his room.]

Okay. [9S has never shared breakfast with someone before. It sounds nice, and with that thought, their walk back to Crow's room is a peaceful one. Once they're inside, he helps Crow onto the bed and then immediately starts poking around at this and that.]

I guess it makes sense that all the rooms would look the same... Hey, have you checked the drawers? That's where I found my uniform.

[He's not even kind of put off by the poking around. It want like this room really even felt like his yet, it was just the place he had ended up sleeping.]

...Oh? No, I didn't really think to look around too much, honestly.

[Kira smiles as he watched Yuki, clearly not in any rush, though he does unzip his jumpsuit. It really did feel like prison sometimes, but not right now so much.]

I found an extra jumpsuit which was... good. Gotta do laundry sometime, right? And I don't really think most would appreciate me just waiting around in the nude.

Well, there's nothing over here. [Once he's satisfied with his poking around, 9S takes a seat on the bed besides Kira, swinging his legs idly. He looks over at Crow, canting his head.]

You humans always were preoccupied with modesty.

[Kira's lips quirk upwards a little at that. 'You humans always were preoccupied with modesty'. Ironic and hilarious.]

And what about androids? [He leans in closer to Yuki, one arm behind him as he regarded him.]

What do you guys think about modesty? You walk around nude often?

We're not supposed to because we're modeled after our creators, but it's not like nudity is a big deal, you know? Humans left behind plenty of data on it. I'm pretty sure they were obsessed with the stuff.

[He takes note of Crow's arm and close proximity, and wonders how he should respond. 9S isn't used to any sort of physical intimacy, even if he was eager to experience it. Crow had already kissed him twice, but he wasn't nearly daring enough to just do that himself.]

What about you? You invited me here, and... You're pretty daring.

[Kira laughs again at the implication that humans were obsessed with nudity. It wasn't wrong! But it was funny to hear an android speculating such a thing.]

Well, you know how it is. The forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest and all. And with humans being conditioned to see nudity as shameful, it becomes something secret.

Clothing once merely served as extra protection against the elements, but quickly became something humanity absolutely could not be seen without, to the point of it being illegal to show your nudity in public.

[It was an oversimplification of a very complex matter, but if he delved too far into it, he worried that his facade might crack a little too much.]

Me? I delight in harmless rule-breaking. Nudity doesn't hurt anyone, we've all got bodies. No use pretending they don't exist under our clothes, right?

It's illegal? That's taking it to the extreme.

[9S swings his legs idly, leaning back on the palms of his hands.]

Well, it's not exactly a rule, but I don't think we androids are supposed to engage with humans like this. At least not where I'm from. Sooo... I guess I like breaking the rules a little too?

[He offers Crow a sheepish smile.]
