[keigo really wants to not fall back behind fake smiles and lying promises. not at all. he wants to be honest here. it's how he can start building up the trust between them again. still, it's so easy to fall right back into hiding how he feels, even after he chastises himself for reacting in such a manner. he doesn't want to guilt dabi about it either.
maybe being separated at times, he can figure that out for himself. how to keep his emotions in check yet to not do it while lying straight to dabi's face.
his head does perk up curiously though, to the former villain's response.]
Not sure why, but I honestly assumed you would want me to have my own place on the other side of San Junipero.
[he admits sheepishly with a small smile. but, a house on the beach sounded nice. he liked dabi's home, so his could be just as comfortable. it wouldn't be like having a place in the deep parts of the city, time and a half away from dabi. it's not so bad now.
and he does agree that they do need some time apart. it wasn't like they were getting right back into the same intimate relationship as before. keigo was being honest earlier when he said he wanted to do this right.]
I'm not sure how the housing stuff works, but I'll try to figure it out.
[does he just imagine a house in mind? that's how other things seem to work here. it's something for him to discover soon enough.
a smile quirks at the corner of his lips this time as dabi admits to adding extra soy sauce to the veggies. it looks like he'll humor his former lover by eating the added healthy ingredients to the pot.]
I guess I should appreciate it. Your cooking was always super delicious before.
[one he misses dearly. at least he can enjoy it here. golden irises do peer to look within the pot, his stomach giving a small growl as the smell and sight hit him. dabi must know him well too, because he can very well see how the veggies are mixed all together. looks like the former villain wins this round.]
Still callin' me birdbrain, huh?
[keigo grins as he reaches to grab two bowls for him and dabi.]
[ it's been one of dabi's greatest insecurities now, when it comes to keigo. what was real? what was an act? so much of what they built on was a lie, he figures. he wasn't even sure if keigo was even interested in him at all, until he saw him here in san junipero again, begging for even a little bit of his time and attention.
even with that though, dabi was unsure for a long time. now at least, he knows some of it was true. but what about the rest? ]
On the other side'a San Junipero? That'd be too far. I... I want ya here, Keigo. Wouldn't have had ya go through all'a that shit to get here if I didn't.
[at least he can reassure keigo of that much. space is good, but he still wants keigo around. living without him all these months- it was a struggle, even with how angry dabi was at him.]
What kinda details did they give ya about San Junipero? I still can't figure all of it out. And I know ya told me some stuff before, but... I couldn't remember. It was all just so fuckin' shocking at first.
[sometimes he still feels like he's in shock about it. it's hard to believe that he's dead. he doesn't think he's quite wrapped his brain around that completely yet. maybe with keigo here it'll be easier. maybe a lot of things will be.]
Good ya still remember how delicious it was. It's been a while.
[he takes the bowls from keigo and starts dolling out enough in each bowl that they won't go hungry. maybe they don't really need to eat here, but it always feels like he should anyway. when he hadn't eaten, it's not as if he died, though. just another weird thing about san junipero.]
You're still a birdbrain, aintcha?
[he smirks, handing a bowl to keigo, then moving to grab some chopsticks and napkins.]
I've even got a fancy dining room now if ya wanna eat there. Or we can take it out on the deck?
