[innermonologues]

I'm pretty sure the fact that I share a weapon with her is the only thing that kept her from completely writing me off as some kind of brat when I first appeared. She got on my case for my attitude a lot.

[ But then again who didn't. No one wants all of Veren's to turn into a winter wonderland, right?

Squall very lightly touches Sora's earlobe just to test how distracted he was. ]

Hers is a little different from mine though. I think it's more advanced.

[oathkeeper]

[That has Sora laughing which makes him shift a little. His hair brushing Squall's fingertips just lightly near his ear.]

You're not nearly as much of a brat as you used to be. So points there...

[Hummmm.....!]

[innermonologues]

[ WOW RUDE?? But he couldn't really argue that fact. Even he realizes that he was extremely terrible back when he first came. He's honestly surprised anyone ever gave him a chance. ]

I think I have you to thank for that. If it wasn't for you, I'd probably still be by myself, telling people they're better off talking to walls.

[ Squall slips the device where it needs to be and just as he clicks it to pierce Sora's ear, Squall leans over to kiss Sora's keep from the other side. ]

1/2

[oathkeeper]

Hm---?

[There's something on his ear-- And then there's Squall kissing his cheek----

Boy. You have about half of a second to DO THIS.]

2/2

[oathkeeper]

Ahhh!!

[It's sharp and there's a snap of pain?! He nearly swings wildly at Squall but his fingers instead dig and grip at Squall's thigh instead.]

Ow?!!

[ ... But- It's done. ... And it wasn't so bad.]

[innermonologues]

[ Squall snorts loudly and one of his arms wraps tightly around Sora's waist to keep him from trying to run off. He does happen to wince a little, but it was worth it to see Sora's face right now.]

That wasn't so bad.

[oathkeeper]

[His ear feels like it's burning a little and he can feel the light weight of the new crown-shaped earring in his lobe. He reaches a hand up and sort of wants to touch it? He touches at his hair gently.]

Ahh... Because you tricked me. [Sora frowns a little but he cuddles against Squall gratefully. Now he can have an earring just like Squall does.]

Does it look okay...?

[innermonologues]

[ He may have tricked Sora, but it worked, didn't it? The way he cuddles so close to him makes Squall smile though. Dropping the piercer onto the bed, Squall wraps both of his arms around Sora and pulls him in close. ]

You know what? I think it looks pretty cool.

[oathkeeper]

[That makes Sora smile when Squall says so and curls around him so securely. The weight of Squall's arms around him feel so good. It always has.]

Thanks, Squall. I guess it wasn't so bad.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall couldn't help it. Whenever Sora was this close to him he just wanted to hold on tight regardless. Feeling his warmth, hearing his loving voice, Squall could soak all of this in and still not have enough. ]

I'm just kind of happy you let me.

[oathkeeper]

[Sora laughs softly. He holds onto Squall and gives his arm a squeeze. Got to make sure he gets his daily cuddle session in.]

Kind of happy I let you stab me with a needle tool? Geeze.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall laughs loudly at that, burying his face into Sora's soft hair to hide it. Sora was such a brat sometimes!!]

What was that? You wanted a couple more piercings in that ear?

[oathkeeper]

[WHAT ITS TRUE]

I think one is more than enough for me today!!

[innermonologues]

[ Squall snorts again, still nuzzling his face in Sora's hair for a little while longer. ]

You were pretty brave you know. You didn't even elbow me in the face like I thought you might.

[oathkeeper]

I thought about it.

[Sora laughs in return. He was so close to fighting Squall but in the end, Squall knows him too well and tricked him into getting it down. Pretty great work, honestly.]

It hurts a little but it should heal up quickly, right?

[innermonologues]

Yeah. It might feel a little sore for a few days, but you'll hardly even notice it once it heals up. I'd give it some weeks before you try removing it though.

[ He's pretty sure Sora wouldn't want to have to redo getting it pierced. Sora might purposely elbow him then. ]

[oathkeeper]

[Yeah. No redoing allowed. Thanks.

Sora gives a little nod and gently touches the top of his ear. He's really proud right now despite the pain of the piercing.]

Thanks again, Squall. I love the earring too.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall shifts a little more and nuzzles his cheek against Sora's shoulder. It's such a silly thing but it did fill Squall with this dumb amount of pride that Sora trusted him this much. ]

I'm glad you like it... When I saw them they made me think of you.

[ Since Sora seemed to love crown things. ]

[oathkeeper]

[Crowns are certainly a motif of his. A bonafide Disney Prince.

From where he's sitting he can't kiss Squall so he opts for nuzzling Squall gently.]

Squall. I love you.

[innermonologues]

[ Sora is to crowns as Squall is the Lions. ]

That's not even fair. You can't just say that when I can't kiss you.

[ So instead he opts to leaning in to kiss Sora right behind his ear. ]

[oathkeeper]

Ahh!

[Sora lets out a breath of air and laughs, head tilting to the opposite side as that little kiss makes him shiver.]

That's not fair either!

[innermonologues]

You're the one who let slip about another new sensitive area. It can't be helped that I'd use it against you now.

[ Squall snorts a little, giving Sora a tiny squeeze. ]

[oathkeeper]

[Sora snorts with some laughter.]

You were going to find out eventually since you were piercing my ears, I guess...!

[innermonologues]

True, but I might have just assumed it was the piercing making you squirmish. With your confirmation I won't let you live it down.

[ He tries to come off more threatening but really he just sounds like a dork who just wants to kiss Sora. ]

[oathkeeper]

[Great! What a jerk. Squall knows of a weakness on Sora's body and Sora doesn't know one for Squall...

He shifts, moving to turn around in Squall's grasp. He settles on his legs and leans up to kiss him quietly.]
