unprompted. / always accepting !!
@yuanfena said : yasuo lifts a tentative hand , pad of his index brushing along the underside of rakan's fur tipped ear - a near imperceptible friction. " hm " a quiet hum , " sorry " he adds as he slowly lowers his hand back to rest on his side , corners of his lips tipping upwards , " couldn't help seeing if they were as soft as they look "
often are feathers considered most important aspect of him, usual for them to be at center of another's attention, considered as the most beauteous aspect of his person ( every part of rakan is beautiful, he is beauty itself, no such thing as flaw on his exterior ), for their colors were warm & their surface velvety, heiled by the many onlookers as a demonstration of a softness fabricated by nature's divine hands. all appreciation welcomed, for it was praise, verbal or not, & he liked that. / one may consider touch itself a minute act, but not him ——— no, its significance amounted to greater than initially perceived, perchance approaching insurmountable in his eyes, as it served as generous indicator that his allure was effective. that others considered him meritorious enough to be granted attention through curiosity's means. it sated his blatant desire, a need for some form of praise. / such is customary when it came to feathers, but what of these ears, whose softness went unnoticed, whose condition kempt for the sake of flashy appearance, whose silk - like surface had never been touched.
how foreign is touch's blessing & how abrupt !! / not a thought of that desire had crossed mind in a while, though upon receiving it, it elicits the softest hum imaginable, vocal vibration brushing against lowest tonality, leaning towards singular digit 'till —— ugh. golden opportunity, transient as it was, had been revoked, an apology in its place. the only apt response ? a huff & brief groan, interlaced with displeasure. / yes, foreign was that touch at first, though he enjoyed it. ear's twitch is slight, head cants to the side, & azures shift to scan caramel before moving onto the rest of yasuo's features. though, rising grin is most pivotal change ( infectious, capable of making rakan's pursed lips curve into minuscule grin, compounded with brief chuckle ), it was home to a boundless curiosity ( rakan thought so, at least ). who is he to deny a friend such an implicit request ?
❛ y'know, ❜ characteristic lilt makes itself present in voice, innate rhythmic tone, befitting of dancer & singer alike. ❛ if you wanted to know whether or not my ears were soft, just ask ! ❜ carefree, not a drop of anger in his voice ; even now, he is cool, he remained mischievous, he liked having his ears touched. head tilts ever so delicately towards yasuo, overt invitation through nonverbal means, he can't just say no to that, right ? ❛ you can touch 'em, go ahead. take is as a thanks. what for ? dunno ! but, i'm sure i owe you some form of gratitude. ❜
