[It's like pinching a cat at the scruff, Neku thinks, and tries not to laugh more. He's a bit pink himself now that he's done it... it feels, good? Awkward but good. But he knows he won't be able to keep it up for overly long. But for now?]

Can we eat on the bus?

[soundsurfing]

Yea, sure, prolly the best idea.

[It still takes a moment for Beat's feet to finally move, like he has to reboot that part of his brain, his brain screaming at the arm through his.

Neku is holding his arm. Beat's beginning to smile again, a big stupid happy one.

He doesn't let Neku's arm go, dragging him gently with him into the shop so they can order. The people behind the counter doesn't even bat an eye. They know Beat so they start making his sandwich as soon as they realize he's coming in, the other asking Neku what he'd like with that, no matter what world, familiar 'i'm dead inside' customer service voice.]

[unlivinglegend]

[He was considering letting go, since it seemed Beat wasn't willing to move (maybe out of fear that Neku would jerk away?). But when Beat pulled him along Neku grins and allows himself to be led.]

Hmmm... chicken?

[He lists off some toppings, keeping it rather light as he suggested before]

[soundsurfing]

[Once Neku's order is in, Beat'll step back with him so they can wait and make room, trying not to look like he's on cloud 9.

Which he is.

And when they're finished, he has a moment where he tries to get money out of his pocket without letting Neku's arm go. Which means he jostles Neku around a little bit, before regrettably slipping his arm out from Neku's with a mumbled sorry hol' up, so he can dig some solars up to pay. Which he does, quickly, grabbing the bag of sandwiches with a thanks! When he rejoins Neku, instead of folding their arms together, he rather boldly reaches out and takes Neku's hand. Ignore him blushing as he does. He's bold!! He'll lead Neku out like that so they can find another bus stop to stand at.]

[He shouldn't be surprised, since Beat has already kissed him twice (even if the new year's one barely counts if it does at all) but he still is when Beat takes his hand. His hand is warm and even without his Soul sensing powers, he can tell Beat is practically floating with excitement.

It's funny how such a simple thing can do so much, huh? Neku squeezes it to show he's on board with this]

The Cube next?

[soundsurfing]

[The squeeze on his hand makes him smile more, if it's possible. This is all right, then. Nothing too big, or forward. Just a hold. A threaded arm or a hand. Boy it's hot under his coat.]

Yeah, figure we'd check it out.

[He hands Neku the bag of Sandwiches when the bus pulls up, so he can dig his now free hand around for fare, handing it over for both of them. Only letting go so he doesn't smother the poor guy in his tail, and so they can find seats. And so Neku can eat, Beat attempting to eat his with one hand, the other down between them and a pinky hooked into Neku's pocket.]

Ain't sure what's in the Cube entirely. [Yes he will talk with a mouthful of sandwich.] Some weirdo on the network uses it fer some gore dates with his dude. I 'unno what that means. I think it lets you spar wid each other, widdout doin' damage? [A shrug.]

[unlivinglegend]

...gore dates?

[Neku looks a little distraught by the term]

[soundsurfing]

[Beat makes a face around his sandwich, like he bit into a bad spot.]

Ye, 'parently they into gettin' the wrong typa bloody together. The shitchu see on the network, yo. Curiosity made me regret.

[unlivinglegend]

So it's THAT kind of relationship.

[soundsurfing]

Each their own, I guess. Jus' glad they doin' it to each other an' ain't lettin' it spread. Long as they both into it?

[A shrug. Beat's absolutely devoured his sandwich, and now he's just sitting comfortable, backpack wedged against his back and his board bonking him in the head a little. The bus is empty so he feels comfortable leaning his head back a bit.]

After the Cube, le's hit up the Mall. You still look human so the Mannequins wont give you issue, an' they haven't bothered me none for a while. [Being fourth aligned.]
