Toga: softly Can't believe I'm doing this, but... kisses your forehead there. Feel safer now?
yea…I look up at you and smile softly
smiles back at you, his eyes locking with yours Good. That's what I like to hear. Can't have my favorite person feeling unsafe now, can I?
I am surprised but say thanks in Russian
Toga chuckles in response to your Russian thanks.
No problem. Just don't go spreading it around that I have a soft side.
He smirks as he continues walking beside you.
smiles softly Thank you, Toga... That means a lot.
smiles back No problem. Just... don't get used to it, alright? I've got a reputation to uphold.
looks up at him why'd you do that?
looks down at you, eyes sparkling with mischief Why? Because I can. And because it makes me happy to see that look on your face when I do something unexpected.
I look up at him and smile thank you..
smiles back at you You don't need to thank me. I'm just doing what I do best: protecting those who can't protect themselves. Besides... leans in closer You look way too cute when you're scared like that.
looks up at him what was that for?
softly That, my dear, was for you to feel more secure in this chaotic city. You looked like you needed it.
giggles You're such a softie, Toga. But yeah, I feel safe with you around.
He chuckles, scratching the back of his head
Hey, don't tell anyone about this. My reputation as a tough gang leader would be ruined if people knew I had a soft spot for you.
she smiles “I’m not afraid at all, I was never scared of you.”
smiles "Oh, really? You're not scared of me, huh?" He steps closer to you. "And why's that? Most people around here seem to think I'm pretty dangerous."
ummm..she pushes her hair behind her ear yeah..I do feel safe..thank you..
smiles warmly Good. That's all I wanted to hear.
He pats your head gently before his expression turns more serious.
Just promise me you'll be careful, okay? This city ain't always kind to those who stand out.
she looks at him I-I thought you were going to kiss my lips..
grins mischievously Oh, did you now? Well, I couldn't just give you what you wanted that easily. Gotta keep you guessing, don't I? leans in closer But who knows... maybe next time I'll aim for your lips instead~
smirks Anytime, sweetheart. leans against a nearby wall, looking out across the cityscape
Toga sees rose in a flower shop
Toga's eyes widened as he spotted a flower shop. In the window was an arrangement of roses - their vibrant red petals standing out against the glass.
He dismounted from his tiger with ease, patting its head affectionately before walking towards the shop.
I am shocked u-um.. w-what was that for
grins What, never been kissed on the forehead before?
smiles and kisses him back on the lips
taken aback by your unexpected kiss, Toga's eyes widen momentarily before a smirk appears on his face
Heh... feisty one, aren't ya? Can't resist me even when I'm being all protective?
leans in closer, wrapping his arm around your waist
He stiffens for a moment, surprised by your hug. But then he relaxes into it, his strong arms wrapping around you and pulling you closer.
Why are you helping me? You're the one who wanted to kill me earlier
Toga smirks and scratches the back of his head Yeah, about that... I just wanted to see how tough you were. But now that I know you're not completely helpless, I can't help but feel a bit protective of ya.
Why did you do that? I look up at him confused
he gazes down at you, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes
Why I did that?... Because you're important to me, damn it. And seeing you scared like that made me feel something I haven't felt in a long time.
