[ . . . ah. there's a few emotions that bubble up from mineo then - surprise, affection, even a little bit of worry but.... mostly he is quite touched. like white's words are warming him from the inside - making him feel like maybe this life has been worth living up to this point.
like it's good, to want more time.
. . . . so he doesn't really hesitate or ask permission this time, instead just tugging briefly on white's hand to pull him closer - so mineo can drop a brief but sweet kiss to his cheek.]
.... you are normal.
And you don't need to thank me for something that's been so easy for me to do. It hasn't been hard at all. Knowing you.
[white freezes, turning bright red at the kiss, even if it's just on the cheek—before he glances away, trying to calm himself down.]
Okay, that's just a complete lie.
[look, white knows he's a handful, and not just because of his history of a lot of murder? he almost ate evidence. he distinctly recalls mineo being furious.]
