Don't put it that way or you'll never be rid of me.

[ He can't help but chuckle a little. A home cooked meal is always welcome, after all. Especially when you can barely cook anything that involves more than tossing it in hot oil. But he listens in silence after that, pausing on occasion to take another forkful of food. It takes him about half his plate to finally find the right words. ]

You did right by him, if you ask me. S'not like you could! He'd end up in more trouble if you did if whatever happened to that Axel bloke was anything to go by.

[ A sigh as he sets his fork down to reach over and place his hand over Watanuki's because gdit man. He hates seeing his friends sad. ]

Don't let this eat you up, sweetheart. Wasn't like you were trying to hold it back to lord it over his head or summat. S'not our place to tell them, after all.

I was able to find out why he was sick and help him... [ He murmured, and his hung his head a little. Ron's hand over his was comforting. ] ...But I couldn't tell him why. It was... frustrating.

[ He glanced up to him. ]

Thanks...

Your words... mean a lot right now. My shiki isn't used to dealing with emotions... and I probably upset him because I started to cry...

There's prolly more to this god malarkey than we thought...

[ All this sudden responsibility. It's too much for a young reaper whose afterlife was just focused on the 9-to-5 and after work partying sometimes. He does offer a sympathetic smile, gripping the other's hand a bit tighter before retracting it. Again, one more reason to miss having two. Multitasking with only one is a bitch sometimes. ]

Did say I wasn't going to leave you in the dark, didn't I? Always did fancy myself a ruddy good listener to whoever needed it. 'Sides... crying doesn't suit you much if you ask me.

[ There was a small smile there. ]

....Just eat your food.

[ He can't help but snicker as he takes another forkful. When was the last time he actually hung out with someone who wasn't connected to Yuki? He doesn't know. But as far as he's concerned... he's enjoying himself, all things considered. ]

It'd be awful rude to pass up a meal, sweetheart. 'Specially one as good as this.

Well, I am a pretty amazing cook... maybe I should have been a god of cooking! Or something like that.

As long as you're enjoying it, that's good enough for me!

[ It actually takes him a while to get back to that retort because he's taking a few more forkfuls to make up for that longass speech he gave. ]

Course I am!

[ Small smirk as he dabs at his mouth. ]

The company makes it twice as good though and it's brilliant on its own.

You're such a flirt. Are all westerners like this? [ Was this a cultural thing? Was Ron just forward? Did he just have 'Yellow Fever'? So many questions and no answers. ]

You know, me boss used to say the same thing when I spent too much time with the secretarial pool.

[ Answer: it's just him. ]

'Stop planning your after hour parties on company time, mister Knox' or 'get back to work, you sodding skirtchaser or it'll be a paycut' if he was feeling particularly rancid that day.

Oh? So you're admitting that you're a playboy?

[ A small shrug and a grin as he leans forward ever so slightly. ]

Can't help it if I've been known to appreciate a pretty young thing on more'n one occasion...

[ You!!! ]

It's a good thing no one in this temple fits that description.

[ Just making it easier and easier... ]

Oh, I could prolly name someone...

[ Small knowing smirk as he sips at his water. ]

You know, it's actually funny you should say that. Maybe I can too.

Ronald Knox.

[ Oh so kitty's flirting back now, is he? He does chuckle at that though. ]

Beating me to the punch, eh? Was going to say you though but blimey, you've beaten me at my own game.

[ And a smirk. ]

Course, can't rightly appreciate myself, now can I?

Then I guess it's good that I can do it for you, hm?

And if not me, plenty of others, for sure.

[ Damn, man. You're actually raking in the points today. He has to appreciate a sincere comment like that. ]

Tell you what then. You appreciate me and I can go appreciate you back. Fair? No one'll be the wiser.

Well, if it's you, I guess it's okay.

S'what I've been telling you. I may be a cad... but m'not that sort of cad.

[ Sorry buddy, but he's just gonna employ that signature smoothness to reach over, curl one hand over Watanuki's before sitting up slightly just to allow himself to press a kiss to the back of that hand before releasing it. ]

Skirtchaser and flirt I may be... but no one's ever called me a liar.

[ Oh wait, whoa, is he kissing him on the-- ]

[ Haaaand.... oh no, that smoothness.... ]

I almost wish you were lying but at the same time if you were lying I'd kill you.

If you keep on flirting with me you're going to get into trouble.

Yeah, I prolly will.

[ His flirtatious nature always did get him into trouble.. but it never really did matter. Trouble was fun sometimes. ]

Little risk never hurt anyone though... and it'll be fun while it lasts, eh?
