[ With a soft cry from the kitten as if to say hello, the Warrior then adjusts a few things and sets the scarfed kitten down on the bed, the Warrior sitting there beside them and watching as they gently begin to make little biscuits on a spot with loud purrs before he looks back to the amulet; he just wants to be sure the kitten is ok. ]
I don't... really think there's a protocol for afterwards. You kiss more if you want... or you just hang out. As long as it's something that feels nice.
[ Here he blinks once before a memory comes to him so easily within this world. ]
Yes. He carved a word on the inside of my shield in case I forget anything while I am here. So that I may remember. That is... that was the first time they happened.
[ There's a pause that comes from the Warrior, as if he's uncertain whether or not to mention something. However, this is Squall and the lack of fireworks and sparkles happening because of such a thing is appreciated. ]
I feel that he is still... uncertain. That he feels my feeling something is a mistake towards him.
[ Serious or not, the Warrior glances to Squall briefly before he shakes his head and looks down to his lap. ]
No. [ A pause, he glances to the small kitten crawling up on his lap then, seeking attention. ] This world is difficult to understand for me still. To feel these things... I have never felt them before and I suppose I worry that I am not doing something right.
But I suppose I also worry that I am seeking something that is not meant for me. Because that is not what I was assigned to do.
That... is something you shouldn't worry about... and that's coming from someone who once felt the same... But even when I felt it so deeply that I shouldn't be seeking something like this... Sora made it hard to stop. It's... not a matter of if you're allowed to feel these things or not... it's more of a matter of... letting yourself.
[ Without really meaning to, the Warrior allows a few memories to flicker through the connection. Nothing of great importance, just quick images of Firion trying to shoo the cats away from his bed, cooking in the kitchen, puttering around in the garden while mumbling to himself, sitting with him on the bed when the Warrior was sick for the first time in his life, walking together in the snow and Firion laughing as he tells stories of his home world... all things that the Warrior keeps tucked away, wanting to remember. ]
...something. Perhaps more human in ways that I have not really felt before. Firion does not explode into fireworks as Sora does but... he makes me create things.
[ By that he means, emotional effects happening. ]
Sorry... I should have been a little more clear. The fireworks thing is kind of a Sora thing. It doesn't make Firions feelings for you in return any less. Sora is just... a flashy person.
[ He adds then and, perhaps a little discreetly, there's what seems to be the hint of a smile on the Warrior's lips as he looks down to the kitten in his lap. ]
I suppose... I just wish I knew how to reassure him. That what I am feeling is not... a mistake. I feel that he thinks I could... do better.
I think... maybe it's normal for people finding new feelings in them like feelings of love... I think it's normal for them to feel that way... I still think Sora could do much better than me. But... Sora reassures me that... at the end of the day I'm the one he likes to have around.
So.... maybe tell Firion that. If that's how you feel...let him know you like to see him around.

[ Squall couldn't help but laugh softly, a gentle smile on his lips for now. ]

There was something that I wished to ask you.
Re: image;

What do you do after you have kissed someone?
[ The blunt way, it seems. ]
image;
What... do you mean after?
image;
What is... the protocol for after?
[ Well... ]
image;
[ pause. ]
Did you finally kiss Firion?
image;
Yes. A few times.
image;
[ It's his own little subtle teasing way to get back at Warrior. ]
image;
There was... gold falling from the sky. It felt like snow but it was much warmer.
image;
image;
But... it means something, does it not?

Yes. He carved a word on the inside of my shield in case I forget anything while I am here. So that I may remember. That is... that was the first time they happened.

[ it was... mostly out of jest, but there was still a little bit of seriousness to his words. ]

No. [ A pause, he glances to the small kitten crawling up on his lap then, seeking attention. ] This world is difficult to understand for me still. To feel these things... I have never felt them before and I suppose I worry that I am not doing something right.
