need practice for forestcovered pls halp

[avantguard]

Hmmmmmm, if it's for fun I don't understand why you need to practice. Nobody is forcing you to do it and your life isn't at stake. It can't be done professionally for money either like some of those other VRMMO's.

But... I can understand the desire to do the best you can for people you like.

Keep working hard, mun-neesan──

- Ah!? Usually I'm the older one!

[nervous laughter

and then she sighs softly]

But we've known each other for so long that I know it's unintentional.

Even so, I think there are times when you do it on purpose too.

[solokun]

... Eh, sometimes it's just easier for me to do.

[avantguard]

Eh? Easier to be rude?!

[solokun]

Easier to be natural.

[avantguard]

Isn't that the same thing?

[before he can react, she waves a hand]

Well, no, just kidding. I know there's a lot more to Kirito-kun than just that part of him.

[looks down at her WEDDINGU RINGU]

[solokun]

[Yeah, he almost grumbles a little before she quickly continues. Then all he can do is smile a little, nod, and squeeze her hand.]

Thanks for noticing.

[avantguard]

And... there might even be parts of you I might not have noticed yet.

[squeezes his hand back as she thinks of that time they had the investigation]

[solokun]

Good think I know you too, otherwise that would sound pretty creepy.

[He can't resist the tease to help him with his shyness at the public affection.]

[avantguard]

[lmao she's creeped out

she's had those guys say that to her probably]

Kirito-kun... why even say that?

[solokun]

Now I know how Asuna used to feel. I have a stalker, it seems.

[avantguard]

Kirito-kun! I'm your wife!

[solokun]

In a way, that's kind of like a stalker. You're always around. And sometimes you watch me sleep.

[avantguard]

E... Eh... Ehhh? I... !

[CRAP

HE KNOWS

GOES RED AND PULLS HER FIST BACK]

Why do you have to say those things out loud?!

[solokun]

[AH SHIT FIST INCOMING.

He ducks back and holds his hands up in front of his face.]

I-It's fine! I guess sleep-watching is a special privilege reserved for the wife!

[avantguard]

[you live for now

she crosses her arms]

I'm not doing it just to watch you sleep! I like seeing Kirito-kun have such a peaceful expression!

[THERE]

[solokun]

Don't I have peaceful expressions other times?

[avantguard]

... Not long enough for me to enjoy them.

[Since when she looks at him for too long he starts bugging her and teasing her and asking her what she's staring at]

[solokun]

[Have a peaceful expression to gaze upon then.]

[avantguard]

[flustered looking away]

I... I can't do it... when you're awake.

[solokun]

[Sn...ores?]

[avantguard]

[blinks

and then smiles]

How does someone fall asleep so quickly? Really now. Then, it can't be helped.

[tugs his head into her lap so he's more comfy]

[solokun]

[POPS HIS EYES OPEN.]

Was that enough time?

[avantguard]

UWAAAH!?

[FALLS BACKWARDS]

[solokun]

[Kirito sits up quickly to hover over her.]

That wasn't even a sneak attack, Asuna. What's with that reaction?

[avantguard]

[CHASING AWAY A HEART ATTACK THANK YOU

now maybe popping a blood vessel as she glares up at him]

What's with yours! I really thought you fell asleep!
