    Summary

    It's like a frog is caught in Makoto's throat. She doesn't want to worry Yuzuki, or make her think she's mad at her. She really isn't. It's just that it's difficult to form words—when Yuzuki's nails tend to graze the nape of her neck like this, and they sit so close on her bed, and Yuzuki handles her hair with just the right amount of pressure, pulling it taut but loose enough that she wouldn't get a headache.

    And God, Makoto likes having her hair played with. Only if it's Yuzuki, though, if she's being honest.

    Makoto realizes that she is the frog caught in her own throat.

    --

    Makoto tells Yuzuki the truth. She doesn't respond how Makoto expects.

    Summary

    She taps her straw against her cup absentmindedly, “I don’t know — just — she’s always off when that stupid topsider is around. All blushy and gross and —”

    She barely finishes her sentence before Lux’s expression changes completely, pink lips splitting into a wide grin, all teeth and the shiny apples of her cheeks. Whether it’s out of frustration or just an excuse to avert her eyes from the sudden bright sight, Powder drops her head down onto the bar with an audible conk .

    “Do you think she might —” The blonde clasps her hands together in a childish kind of glee, leaning in close to Ekko and Powder. “like her? ”

    ...

    In which Powder watches in a bewildered and horrified sort of fascination — and a little disgust — as Caitlyn and Vi blunder through the grossness of young love. ( And maybe she learns a few things about herself, too. )
