[Oh.

Something twists in Kita's chest.

He has to reach out. Steady himself against a tree.]

[leftwinger]

Kita-san, are you alright?

[1foxgiven]

Ha - Yes, sorry.

[No benches here, so best to take advantage of the tree. Kita leans into the support. Grateful for it. His face and ears have gone a bit red. Probably from the cold.

Probably.]

I think... I really like hearing you say things like that.

[leftwinger]

Oh....

[It takes him a moment to properly process that and, more importantly, to consider his next few words.]

I can say things like that to you more often, if you'd like.

[1foxgiven]

[Put into a "Yes or No" format, Kita's able to answer at once. He nods. Ears going red as his jacket.]

I would.

Definitely. Yes.

[His chest is so tight, it's hard to get out words. Let alone sentences.]

[leftwinger]

Very well, I shall keep that in mind for our future conversations.

[Another pause, and he squints again.]

Are you certain you're alright?

[1foxgiven]

I think so.

I just feel... really happy, right now. It's a good thing.

[What that thing is? Kita will need to work out later. He is perfectly capable of understanding emotions. Understands this is a shift.

It's the onslaught that's confusing.]
