[ His plan worked perfectly~ ]

I've never seen him wear anything, but that just means we should change that now.

[watergrape]

He's a handsome boy, but small! The Winter might be hard on him.

[This has nothing to do with her wanting to hug the Dream Beast and put him in something fuzzy.]

[firefalling]

[ He kisses her softly just because of her sweet thoughtfulness. ]

We won't let him suffer.

[watergrape]

[Her thoughts are the only fuzzy thing every time he kisses her! She tucks her head against his chest.]

Are you cold?

[firefalling]

[ He likes making her all fuzzy~ ]

How can I be cold when you love me?

[watergrape]

[She pouts when her cheeks burn!]

Does that make sense for a Phoenix? [And then she thinks about it.] Are Phoenixes cold when no one loves them?

[firefalling]

[ Her blushes are precious and he kisses each flushed cheek. ]

Your love is...life, Jinmi. To me. To your Phoenix.

[watergrape]

[Her eyes close briefly and she nuzzles their lips together, giving him a soft kiss.]

Your love makes me feel warm. I wasn't happy in the Water Mirror, but I had fun as your Pageboy.

[She giggles at the memories.]

And the more I was around you, the more I didn't want you to leave me.

[firefalling]

[ His heart melts under the soft kiss and a quiet sigh escapes as his eyes flutter closed just as briefly.

But then he teases her lightly, eyes far too bright to be at all serious. ]

Is that the only reason you wanted me around? Because you had fun?

[ Only to laugh softly and tighten his arms gently around her. ]

How could I leave you? I can't. And I don't want to.

[watergrape]

[She made him...do that? Jin Mi shifts bashfully and then thinks about kissing him again. And maybe again. Just to hear his happy sighs.]

When I had fun, you would smile. [So, in a way, yes? But also no because... Because! Putting her feelings into words will take more time.]

I was only a grape fairy when we met. I thought you were making fun of me.

[firefalling]

[ Yes, yes she does. He hugs her close again simply because he loves holding her. ]

I can just be myself with you. That's a very special thing. You make me smile simply by being yourself. Having your love? Is the sun shining bright and warm.

[ ...But he laughs, too and grins at her. ]

Of course I was teasing you. I didn't understand just how little you really understood. I wanted to help you grow and learn. My method was just...not as kind as I could have made it.

[watergrape]

[Her arms are around him too. Holding him has become a habit whenever she sees him. Like this, she can see his face and read his every expression.]

I knew nothing about Heaven when we met. I dunked you into the foot bath! I thought I was using you most of the time, but imagining going anywhere without you made me feel funny.

[Like part of her was empty.]

I wanted your attention. I didn't even care who I upset! When you teased me, I was happy. But when you thought I was playing dumb to...to flirt?...I wasn't. I really didn't know I was a girl.
