I do mean that... if it means you’ll sleep with me. Oh.. and if I get a hand that I get to kiss, but those are my hard demands.
[ okay he will stop... ]
Hmm. I do.. so much and so little all at once. I’m very good at avoiding responsibilities and I’m very passionate about giving up on the world altogether.
I don’t have a job, but.. [ Hmm. He does like to pawn things for money. ]
[ The continued proposition is ... awkward and has him feeling shy again, so he huffs through it dismissively. i swear we'll porn someday why is he like this ]
You're in no position to be demanding anything of me. [ But Klaus does seem interested in following him (or maybe it's only Percival who's reading it this way), and that's enough for him to jump the gun and assume the talkative man is up for becoming his vassal. ]
The way you describe yourself is less than flattering, but I suppose I can see the value in honesty and humility. Though you aren't the usual sort I would consider ...
[ Percival crosses his arms, sitting a little taller and looking very sure of himself. ] It's decided. I shall take you under my wing as my vassal in this place. Perhaps under my guidance, you can learn proper responsibility and discipline.
Klaus considers what everything Percy is saying, but he doesn't precisely understand. He doesn't really know what vassal means, but the way the other man speaks of it, Klaus thinks he should take it as a compliment. After all, Percival could have picked many others, but for some godforsaken reason we're having this conversation right now.
His hands lift to his own face, surprised, though it's mostly put on. ]
Are you saying... you like me?
[ ignoring the responsibilities part cause he hates that ]
[ The 'responsibility' part is the main part, Klaus. He's trying to change you into a more responsible man. This reaction isn't quite what he had expected at all. He had said many things, and he had not expected this to be the main thing Klaus had taken out of it. Percy is taken aback, a momentary surprise gracing his face before his expression becomes something more like feigned sullenness. ]
What? Where are you getting that ... [ Turning away now in some shyness. If Klaus knows what a 'tsundere' is, here is a prime example. ]
Hmph. I simply respect the love you seem to have for your family. I believe that is indicative of a noble spirit. [ He does like you, Klaus. ]
[ Klaus isn't that weeby. He only knew what hentai is cause he's gross. But he does notice the other man seems to be in denial— how he turns his head and allows red to blossom over his face. It's so cute in his opinion.
So much, though, that he stands from his seat and slides into the booth next to Percival, wrapping those wiry arms around the red head in a hug. It's a good hug, too. ]
Mmm! Nobody has ever said anything like that to me before..!
[ A noble spirit. He has a noble spirit! How nice to know. ]
You ...! Who said you could hug me! [ Despite the protest, Percy doesn't shove Klaus off, like he could. He instead keeps his gaze fixed away, clutching onto the other man's arms with a discontented but resigned look on his face. It's actually rather pleasant to be hugged? Not that he would admit such a thing. ]
It was only an observation. There's no need to read too far into it. [ So many cliche tsundere lines today. ]
[ He keeps his arms around the other man even when scolded, cuddling up against his shoulder. He even allows one of his hands to idly stroke Percival's shoulder. ]
I will read far into it cause it's something nobody has ever told me before. Just like I said.
[ Klaus, you need more positive attention. Percival's practically burning with fluster as a result of this brazen affection, but his sympathy for Klaus' situation prevents him from shoving the other man off. Well, there's a chance he wouldn't have anyway, because he's a man with a much bigger heart than he likes to show others. ]
Well, don't become too happy. Your lack of responsibility and haphazard mannerisms still require work ... [ Ruining the mood. ]
[ kinda hard to ruin the mood once Klaus is sincerely happy, tbh.. ]
Oh? Pray tell about just how haphazard I really am.
[ He finally removes his arms, but not without giving Percival a squeeze, warm and genuine. He folds his hands on the table before them but remains seated next to the red head, waiting for.. well. Percy to elaborate on himself, he guesses. ]
