he turns his dramatic hand at his gesture into less 'woe is me' and more 'cross my heart and hope to die']
You don't have to worry about a thing.
[and true to his words, he leans down and immediately scoops up a corgi kappa before it can tread on the hem of Roxana's dress,]
Okay, okay. [it's just like "SHIP? SHIP?"] I get what you're saying, but as you can see, I've been turned down.
[he tosses it gently over the side, and then as a flash of purple coalesces around his hands, an image of a sky filled with fireworks appears, complete with the sound effects. it's very pretty!! but more importantly it scares the rest of the shippers off the boat,]
He lets it linger a little longer, and the last firework that shoots up in the sky is in the shape of a butterfly.]
Hey, I'll take what I can get. [that's why itsuki stays losing actually,] Plus we won't even need a tunnel the next time you want to see something nice.
[ara is that ur way of telling me that u want them to come back,
Itsuki sits back, wow... sometimes you want to kiss a girl and she tells you that all of your self-defense mechanisms are obvious and that u need to git gud...]
I think I feel seen for the very first time... [the usual line, then he laughs.] Did I really make it that obvious, or are you just used to that kind of behavior? Either way, I'm kind of embarrassed.
[ no that is just roxana being vigilant. i am fine if they come back or stay away i go with the flow.
She shakes her head. ]
It's not that obvious. [ Maybe it's because she knows what that's like. Maybe she's just observant. Maybe she was throwing a shot in the dark to see where it would land. Maybe it's all of the above. ] But I'm not pushing you to be any which way.

itsuki puts a hand to his chest dramatically, but otherwise]
Loud noises should work? Or hitting them with something, punching them in the face...
[coincidentally, these are all things that would work on itsuki]

She looks from him, to them, back to him. ]
Can I rely on you for this?
[ Guard her from the kappa, free her from this tunnel. ]

Good work, Itsuki.
[ More reliable than he likes to seem. ]
I'd like this better if you didn't have to drive creatures away.

She sighs softly, but at least the ship is making its way through the tunnel without kappas to creep on them. ]
Do you make it a habit to speak that way?
[ It's asked in a way that sounds more like a curiosity than a criticism. ]
no subject
for once Itsuki doesn't have a quick rebuttal. His expression is thoughtful, but maybe the surprise is obvious in his silence.]
In what way exactly?
no subject
She glances at him once it's clear no kappa are going to come back to sing kiss the girl. ]
I don't think that you've missed what type of language you use.
[ The come-ons that borderline as too much. ]
As if despite how you act as if you want to be with others, you speak to keep them at a distance.
