[ There's a sharp inhale as his body stiffens - and he clenches his jaw and swallows hard. Should've known the first time he actually wants to talk about something serious this happens.
He nods, slowly - and reaches to pry her arms off from around him before he whips around. ]
Wh - [ No, keep going - ] Why did you threaten Hana the other night.
[ His expression relaxes only slightly when she touches his face - but he knows there's something else he needs to address. ]
And if Hana wants to get away from me for her own safety, because she'd rather not deal with potentially being killed just because of this, then I'm not going to be mad at her for that. I'd do the same if I were in her position.
[ He's almost snarling at this point, lip curled back and baring his teeth in a more animalistic gesture - ]
But if you even dare to try and go after her because of any of this, because I caught wind of what you did to her and because I'm not going to stand for you threatening other people in some fucked-up attempt to keep me close -
[she doesn't like how noah has put a stop on her going after hana but it doesn't mean she won't try. one way or another, she will get back at the stupid rabbit for this]
He does seem to be a bit more relaxed now that he's gotten this out of his system, but he still hasn't made any move to touch Ammy outside of taking her hands off from around his waist earlier. ]
[ Part of him wants to comfort her - after all, this is probably the angriest he's really been - but at the same time, he knows that in this case he is justified in that anger to an extent. Though he is fighting himself not to move. ]
... fine.
But what do you really want from this? You could have probably any guy you wanted - and yet you're so determined to have me stay. Why. It's not just for the sex, either.
You helped me find out where my father's been, sure. And I am grateful for that. But you also asked me to take his place. That you want me to become the guard for a god.
aren't they in this because of sex? she uses it to convince noah to join her and replace skoll. he gets to sleep with a hot woman and gets some of his needs taken care of.
so then why is asking if there is more to this? better yet, does she want more from him than simply using him as a tool?]
[ Noah watches her for a few more moments before he shakes his head. ]
Maybe you should figure that out first before anything else.
[ Because yeah, the sex is amazing, he won't deny that at all. It's most of why he had gone along with everything so far. ]
I need time to talk with the old man finally anyway. I've found him, but I need to ask him a few things. Maybe after that, I can finally give you my answer.
[she isn't sure what to make of this entire conversation and she can feel the beginnings of something unfamiliar blossoming in her chest.
what on earth is going on?]
I...okay.
[she should be happy that he's going to finally talk with skoll. she should be smiling and giving off the air of someone confident and sexy, basically, her usual self. instead, she's meek and looking so unsure. not to mention the feeling in her chest is starting to bother her and she's annoyed that she can't put a name on it]
[for the first time, she feels warmth in her cheeks and places her hands on them as she watches noah leave.
before he can get to the door, she runs to him, calling his name and wraps his arms around his neck, bringing him down for a kiss.
it's different. nothing like the ones where it was something that had to be done because it was part of the fucking process. there is something behind it. at least from amaterasu's side.
she pulls away after a bit, stepping away and putting a little space between them]

Date: 2018-03-17 06:12 pm (UTC)I only had a talk with her. You know, from one girl who has interest in you to another. That's all.
[also, not many actually get to see both women and not get dumped by either. jesus, noah]

I don't think of her that way. I have more respect for my partners than that. And I sure as shit don't appreciate you trying to speak for me.

I'm sorry, okay. [she cups his face gently in her hands] Maybe I shouldn't have called her that. I'm sorry. I was wrong.

How do I know that you'll actually do it.

Date: 2018-03-17 07:25 pm (UTC)she finally removes her hands from his face and brings them around her, making herself look upset]
Because you'll be angry at me if I do and you'll probably leave me. I don't want that.

Okay.
[she clutches at where her heart is once she leaves and is shocked to feel it beat faster]
Why is it doing this?
