27. “Tell me again?” Arakáno said hesitantly.

Pityo took a breath, steeling himself. This was hard enough to do without Arakáno staring at him like he’d grown a second head. (Maybe the problem was that Pityo didn’t have a second head with him; Telvo refused to have any part in what he called “romantic nonsense.”)

“I,” he said again, “would like to—to kiss you.”

Arakáno blinked. “...Really?” he asked, like he didn’t quite believe it.

Pityo resisted the urge to grab him right then and kiss the stupid expression off his face. Arakáno was such an idiot and it was ridiculous how endearing he was with his wide blue eyes and lips just barely parted in surprise.

“I wouldn’t have said it, let alone twice, if I didn’t mean it!” Pityo exclaimed. He wasn’t sure if he was angry or hurt or just incredibly anxious; it didn’t really matter, considering how astonished Arakáno was. Fucking Nolofinwions. (The thought crossed his mind that ‘fucking Nolofinwions’ was exactly the path this sort of foolishness would lead to, and that at least two of his brothers were doing that already—just not with Arakáno.)

“But no one’s ever wanted to kiss me,” Arakáno said, his voice trembling. “Do you really mean it...?”

Oh. Arakáno wasn’t making fun at Pityo’s expense—he was doubting himself.

“Will this help convince you?” Pityo asked, reaching up toward his cousin—damn it, he was nearly as tall as Maitimo and might grow taller, for all he was younger than Pityo himself—and pulling him close.

Little did @unkn0wnlifef0rm‘s Fortuna know what would happen if she wore that crown as for her it was just a cute accessory. Shortly after she became Fortunette. Doesnt look like she likes it very much though...
