There was a distinctive chill in the air that belonged solely to early fall. A slight overcast of fluffy greyish clouds drifted past. A promise of rain wasn't imminent, which was all well and good in Seishiro's opinion. He liked a good autumn rain as much as the next guy, but that would sort of spoil the little date he had brought Kyou out on. Just hanging out on the beach, nothing fancy. But in the Tora's opinion it was best to just enjoy the way things panned out instead of making a massive amount of strict plans.
Seishiro turned to smile at this boyfriend (how happy he was to actually use that title now). He'd stopped by the pick him up at base (thankfully he knew how to get there by himself now) without really saying much about where they were going. He figured the beach was a good a place as any, especially with the weather being so nice and all. "Whataya think?" he asked cheerfully. "Good choice of venue?"

Kyou smiled back just a bit shyly at Seishy, he still wasn't quite grasping the fact that he had managed to catch Seishy's interest to the point they were DATING. He loved the idea, and he loved Seishy quite a bit as well, but it was just... so surreal. Like a dream he had made up. How often was it that a crush was requited? It wasn't all that often for him... "It's perfect." He replied happily, twining his fingers gently with the other Tora's own digits.
He could feel his heart beating against his ribs, an extra throb with its usual pulsing. He wasn't sure what he had to be nervous about, but he hoped the feeling would alleviate soon.

"Yay, I'm glad~." If he could spend all his time with Kyou, he probably would. Grant it, the sparkly Tora still loved going out and having fun, but it didn't have the same type of appeal. He wasn't out to get the same kind of attention as he had before meeting his boyfriend. And that was perfectly fine.
Seishiro adjusted his hand around the other Tora's, allowing him enough space to lean in and kiss him on the cheek. He pulled back with a smile smile. "I'm just happy I get to spend time with you."

Kyou blushed a bit at the kiss but didn't shy away like he might have a year ago. His smile grew a little more confident and the thumping of his heart died down a bit with the wordless (and then verbal) reassurance that Seishiro was happy with him. "Likewise... I wish we could do it more often."
He hadn't really been aware of how little sleep a person could get when on-call 24/7. Maybe that was why his job had been so easy to get, he hadn't gotten a full night of sleep for the past few weeks, and it could be seen in the bags under his eyes. That being said, it was hard for him to find a lot of energy in the daytime, and as a result his free time had gone downhill.
"Oh!" He nearly forgot. "I met Hi a little while ago, she's very nice." They had hit it off pretty well, he thought. And he liked knowing someone who was so close to Seishy.

"Oh really?" Seshiro chuckled. "Did she strike you as being particularly mothering?" It would surprise him if Hi had started treating Kyou like a child or younger siblings right of the bat. She had a habit of doing those sorts of things.

Kyou smiled. "Yep. She was especially worried about you though, she also asked me to try and keep you out of trouble." So perhaps Kyou came off as a tad more responsible that Seishy, though the taller Tora was certainly acting more mature now... and Kyou liked that. Not that he hadn't like Seishy as the fun partyboy, it's just he felt a little less need to be worried now... Although he was certain half of the worry was rooted in the thought that Seishy would wind up smitten with someone other than the photographer and Kyou would never get the chance to tell him he loved his clanmate.

"Yeah, that sounds like her." Seishiro sighed softly. "But she shouldn't worry so much. I've got an awesome boyfriend that I'm totally dedicated to, so that eliminates a good deal of the bad behavior she'd be concerned about." He shrugged. That much was just a simple statement of fact. "Oh well, she'll learn."

Kyou's blush returned as another compliment was paid, albeit indirectly. 'Awesome' wasn't quite the word he'd use to describe himself. He had talent in certain areas, but he wasn't awesome, not by a long shot. "I'm sure she will, you've grown up a little..." He laughed a little. "Maybe she's just suffering empty-nest syndrome?" He offered jokingly as he began to walk with Sesihy. Just standing around would be a waste of the lovely, albeit somewhat cool, day.

The Tora had to laugh at that one. "Probably." He paused. It did seem like a likely explaination. "But now she's got good ol' Freddie to worry about. Lord knows the fact that he hasn't totally quit smoking yet in enough to give her an aneurysm."

"So worrying over him will keep her mind off of you." Kyou knew just as well as everyone else in the world that smoking was a bitch to quit. Though he had a feeling that if anyone would be able to get the bartender to quit his vice it would be none other than Hi. "Clever." He tagged on, he had managed to talk with a younger clanmate who had told him that it was a typical younger sibling tactic: redirection of attention. Worked like a charm, apparently.

"It is pretty tricky if I do say so myself," he chuckled, adjusting his grip on his boyfriend's hand. They were pretty close to the shoreline by this point. Fresh, salty air floated in from the waves, accompanied by cool sea spray. The air felt brisker here; there was a distinctive chill. Seishiro breathed in the sea breeze during his brief pause before turning his head back towards Kyou. "But I know she worries because she cares. People get that way about people they care about." The subliminal message in his words was blatantly obvious.

Kyou shivered a bit as the air turned chillier, his jacket was thinner than he probably should have selected for the cooler weather. Not to say he had too many thicker coats either, there hadn't been quite enough money to purchase nicer clothes after the others had worn out a bit, but he and Ayumu hadn't frozen yet and they wouldn't in the future (especially not Ayumu, Kyou was doing his best at making sure that his twin would be comfortable in the winter, it was the least he could do after her taking care of him for so long).
He moved just a little closer to Seishy to guard against the cold as he smiled, trying to let Seishy know that he wouldn't have to worry. Honestly, he wasn't sure how else to respond to that...

Noting his boyfriend's cold-induced movements, Seishiro unwound his fingers from the other man's and snaked his arm around his opposite shoulder. The sparkly Tora pulled Kyou in a little closer, trying to use his body's constant emissions of heat to his advantage. (Hi had a habit of telling him he was like a human space heater.)
"Cold?" Seishiro asked nonchalantly. Maybe he should have warned him about the weather first. Not that it was terrible or anything, but still...

Kyou blushed a bit. "Not anymore." Actually, now he was really comfortable. Seishy wasn't just warm, Kyou felt right being so close to him. It was nice, nicer than he had thought it might be even a year ago when he hadn't had much of a reference and was just imagining. Kyou snuggled a bit closer. "It might be kinda cold out, but it really is nice to look at the sea..." The sun glancing off of the water was deceptive of the coolness of the air, giving the illusion of a bright summer day with none of the real warmth... It was a strange contradiction, but Kyou kinda liked it.

Seishiro hummed in agreement. Although he was less focused on the scenery (as nice as it was) and more on snuggling with the other Tora. If there was one thing cold weather was good for, it was stuff like this.
"You're pretty nice to look a yourself," Seishiro added with a small, amused smile. Being a flirt was like some sort of chronic illness to him.
