Tsuna: [ sticks his head in from the doorway to check if Mukuro has arrived at the kitchen yet ]
Mukuro: *isn't there yet!* *is actually five feet behind Tsuna* *grins* *approaches him as quietly as he can* Kufufu~
Tsuna: [ assumes he hasn't arrived yet and walks in a bit, looking around ]
Mukuro: *sneaks up behind him and places a hand on Tsuna's shoulder* Hello, Sawada Tsunayoshi~
Tsuna: Hiii-! [ jumps and turns around, smacking his hand away from surprise ] M-Mukuro!
Mukuro: *laughs and takes a step back, pulling his hand away*
Tsuna:: That isn't funny! [ frowns and takes a step back away from him, sighing ]
Mukuro: I think it's very funny~ *smiles*
Tsuna: Y-you need to stop surprising people like that!
Mukuro: That takes the fun out of it, though~
Tsuna: [ mumbles ] You have the weirdest definition of fun.. [ moves over to the table ]
Mukuro: *totally heard that* My definition of fun is unique, I can't help that~. *follows him over to the table*
Tsuna: [ thinks something along the line of oh, you're definitely unique, alright-- ] S-so, how do we make that thing you were talking about?
Mukuro: *pulls something out of his pocket* Oh, it's rather simple, pineapple upside down cake~. *wanders over to the pantry and starts pulling out ingredients*
Tsuna: [ follows after him, keeping a bit of distance ] Do you need me to get anything?
Mukuro: Yes, I need you to get the eggs and butter from the fridge~. And the pineapple~. *glances at him*
Tsuna: [ scuttles on over to the fridge to acquire the ingredients ] How many eggs?
Mukuro: Four eggs~. Oh, and I need sour cream, too~. *looks down at the piece of paper again* *lining the ingredients on the counter*
Tsuna: [ takes whatever he needs out one by one and places it on the counter as well ] Th-there.
Mukuro: *glances over at him, chuckling* Thank you~. *smiles at him* *brushes a hand over Tsuna's shoulder as he goes to grab a bowl*
Tsuna: [ shrinks down a bit from that and sidesteps so he's away from Mukuro ]
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow* *grabs the bowl from the cupboard and puts it on the oven* Can you preheat the oven~?
Tsuna: S-sure-! [ makes his way over to the oven ] What temperature should it be..?
Mukuro: *starts cutting up the pineapple* 325 degrees~.
Tsuna: [ sets it and wanders back over to him ] Anything else?
Mukuro: *glances at the table full of stuff* For now, no~. *smiles at him*
Tsuna: [ takes a seat and supposes he'll just watch Mukuro chop up that pineapple for now-- not like he has anything better to do! ]
Mukuro: *well, he gets the impression that Tsuna isn't very good in the kitchen, so he won't let him play just yet* *finishes cutting up the pineapple* Would you put the flour, baking powder, almost and salt in the other bowl for me~?
Tsuna: O-okay. [ goes over to the stuff, picking out what he needs and glances over to Mukuro ] Where's your recipe?
Mukuro: Ah yes~. *hands him the little piece of paper* *grabs a saucepan and walks over to the stove, beginning to work on the caramel sauce* *remembering the last time he was in the kitchen, attempting to bake something*
Tsuna: Th-thanks. [ measures out the ingredients according to the recipe and dumps it all in the bowl, giving it a quick shake to settle everything. looks over Mukuro ] Wh-what else should I be doing? [ derp feeling a little useless ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *finishes melting the caramel mixture on the stove* *glances behind at Tsuna* Get another bowl~.
Tsuna: [ does so and puts the bowl down on the counter with a bit of a clang! ] O-oops. [ rubs the back of his head a bit ]
Mukuro: *turns around when he hears the clang* *blinks* What happened~? *pouring the carmel sauce into the cake pan*
Tsuna: N-nothing really! [ waves his hand a bit to dismiss it ]
Mukuro:*raises an eyebrow* Try not to destroy the kitchen~. *slight chuckle in his voice* *puts the sauce pan in the sink and then walks over to the counter with the pan* *brushes past Tsuna oh so smoothly*
Tsuna: I-I'm not! [ almost squeaks when Mukuro brushes past him ]
Mukuro: *picks up the other bowl* I was just checking~. *smiles* *grabs the sugar and butter* *glances at Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ blinks at him, not sure what he's looking back at him for ] ..? D-do you need me?
Mukuro: Would you like to mix~? I have faith that you're not like Cavallone when it comes to having decent mixing skills~. *plugs in the electric mixer*
Tsuna: Um, sure. [ walks over to him to take the mixer ] I-I wouldn't think Dino-san would be very good at anything in the kitchen.. not without his men at least.
Mukuro: *leans against the counter, watching him* You would be quite correct~. Kufufu~.
Tsuna: [ feels slightly uncomfortable with Mukuro watching over him like that, but starts mixing anyway. slowly adds in the other ingredients just as he starts getting the hang of it, some of the dough flings out of the bowl and onto his face and the counter ] A-ack!
Mukuro: *watches him closely, making sure he doesn't make a mess* ... *moves over to him when he starts making a mess, brushing a hand over Tsuna's waist* Let me~. *takes the mixer from him and finishes the job*
Tsuna: S-sorry-! [ steps back from the counter and goes to look for a towel or something to clean himself ]
Mukuro: *grabs his wrist before he can get far enough away* *grins*
Tsuna: M-Mukuro--? [ looks up, confused ]
Mukuro: *leans over and licks the batter off Tsuna's face*
Tsuna: Ah! [ turns his head the other way because ohgodwtfjshj ]
Mukuro: *chuckles a little and then pulls away, licking his lips a bit* I think it needs something~.
Tsuna: [ rubs at his face with his free hand and glares at Mukuro ] Y-you could've just tried it off the mixer!!
Mukuro: But it tasted so much better off your face~. Kufufu~. *smirks*
Tsuna: Wh-what kind of person licks cake batter off of someone else's face?!
Mukuro: Someone like me, I suppose~.
Tsuna: Y-you--! You're so frustrating! [ looks away from him, blushing ] I-is it all off at least? [ rubbing at his cheek ]
Mukuro: You're not the first person to tell me that~. *can see that blush, Tsuna!* *completely and utterly amused* *looks at his face, knowing it's totally clean* Nope, you've missed a bit~.
Tsuna: Wh-where? [ ready to take on that bit of batter! ]
Mukuro: *reaches over and brushes a hand over Tsuna's cheek* There~.
Tsuna: [ looks up at Mukuro, cheeks turning redder ] Th-thanks.
Mukuro: *smirks* You're welcome~.
Tsuna: [ gives a weak smile back-- ] S-so, what are we supposed to do next?
Mukuro: Oh yes, we should finish, hm~? We just need to put the pineapples on and then add the batter to the pan~.
Tsuna: Th-that doesn't sound too hard. Pineapples first?
Mukuro: Yes~. *hands him the bowl of pineapples*
Tsuna: [ takes it and arranges the pineapple slices into the pan, looking back at Mukuro ] How's that?
Mukuro: Satisfactory~. *pours the batter over the top of it*
Tsuna: [ watches him ] H-how long is it going to take to bake?
Mukuro: A little more than an hour~. *picks up the pan and puts it in the oven*
Tsuna: pouty-sort-of-frown ] Such a long time..
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *leans against the counter and crosses his arms, looking at Tsuna* It's not that long~. We can always pass the time~. *smile*
Tsuna: [ looks over at Mukuro, slightly uncomfortable (but when isn't he around him?) ] Wh-what should we do then..?
Mukuro: *shrugs* Whatever you like~. *sets the baking timer*
Tsuna: [ thinking face on! ] There really isn't much to do on this ship..
Mukuro: That explains why everyone seems to be so bored most of the time~. At least when we were on land, I could go and do things~. *sigh*
Tsuna: [ sighs as well ] I guess we need to visit islands and ports more often-- I think we'll all go insane if we're out at sea for too long. [ mumbles ] I'm definitely reaching that point.
Mukuro: Perhaps, we should~. *studying him* Or we could always buy a pinball machine~. Endless entertainment for us all, kufufu~.
Tsuna: I'm not sure a pinball machine would entertain us for too long.. We'd probably get bored of it the next day. [ leans on the counter, looking up in thought ]
Mukuro: Fooseball table then~? Ping pong~? I was thinking our own bowling alley myself~. *grins*
Tsuna: C-can we even fit a bowling alley on this ship?
Mukuro: *laughs* Anything is possible~.
Tsuna: M-maybe, but I think we should just.. try less expensive methods.
Mukuro: *uncrosses his arms and checks on the cake even though it's been five minutes* *glances at Tsuna* It can be done, you know~.
Tsuna: .. Hm? -- bowling?
Mukuro: *nods* Yes, bowling~. *walks over to him*
Tsuna: H-how? [ can't exactly wrap his mind around this; ]
Mukuro: Watch and learn~. *faces the other wall in the kitchen, closing his eyes* *the kanji for one appears in one of his eyes and like that, half the kitchen is now a bowling alley*
Tsuna: [ steps back in surprise, noting how weird it is to have a half-kitchen-bowling-alley hybrid ] H-haah, I forgot you could do that..
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *glances at him* Are you up for a game then~?
Tsuna: [ laughs weakly ] M-might as well, I guess.
Mukuro: Excellent~. *brushes past him and walks over to the bowling ball rack and picks out a ball*
Tsuna: [ steps back a bit as Mukuro brushes past and goes over to the rack too to pick out the... lightest ball OTL ]
Mukuro: *picks up a ball that says his name on it* You're first~. *looks at Tsuna*
Tsuna: Um, okay. [ goes up and knocks down one pin the first time and gets a gutter the second! looks rather dispirited because he knows he's not too good at this sob;; ]
Mukuro: *sits down on one of the benches and watches* ... *raises an eyebrow* My, my~ *stands up and bowls himself a strike because duh, this is HIS ILLUSION* Kufufu~.
Tsuna: [ what a cheater~ ] ... [ goes back up and has better luck this time! 5 pins down this time! smiling just a little bit, maybe. ]
Mukuro: *nods a little* Hm~. *bowls himself a strike again* *makes it look easy, really*
Tsuna: [ grumbleee ] Y-you're not playing fair, are you?
Mukuro: Kufufu~. It's my illusion, I play how I want~. *smiles at him*
Tsuna: That's cheating! [ frownnnning ]
Mukuro: So~? *brushes past him again*
Tsuna: [ steps back after he does that and bites his lip ] R-remind me why I'm in your illusion again.
dynastic paradox; Because I felt like bowling and it's no fun to bowl alone~. *pauses* Obviously~.
Tsuna: B-but all you get are strikes-- you aren't even really playing!
Mukuro: Getting strikes is playing~. There's a certain way you have to curve the ball to get a strike, you know~.
Tsuna: ... h-how do you do that? [ slightly interested in this technique ]
Mukuro: It's relatively easy~. I can show you if you like~.
Tsuna: Okay-- show me.
Mukuro: *approaches Tsuna, gently grabbing onto his arm, moving it in the proper way to get a strike* *does this a few times* *standing very close to Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ erp, was not expecting that at all-- blushing a bit while trying to focus on the bowling ball ]
Mukuro: *smirks* Now for the rest of your body movements~. *places a hand on his waist and does the arm movements again, guiding him on how to throw the ball*
Tsuna: [ hand on waist makes things uncomfortable. shifting slightly but it doesn't really help ] O-okay.
Mukuro: Do you think you have it now~? *asks this via ear whisper*
Tsuna: [ feels a shiver run down his spine with that ] Um, s-sure!
Mukuro: *having a wonderful time unsettling him like this* I'll let you try then~. *lets go of him*
tsuna life: [ breathes in and tries to do it, accidentally closing his eyes right at the moment of letting go and just hopes he gets something! ] Pleasepleaseplease. [ talking to himself ]
Mukuro: *takes a step back and watches him*
Tsuna: [ finally opens one eye in time to see all the pins fall ] I-I did it! [ ffff overjoyed from not failing! ]
Mukuro: *grins* Kufufu~. I told you I'd show you how to get a strike, didn't I~?
Tsuna: Thanks, Mukuro! [ flashes him a big smile, cheeks flushed from excitement ]
Mukuro: I suppose you're welcome~. *watching him from his seat on the bench* *smiles back at him*
Tsuna: [ thinks for a second ] Do you think the cake is done now..?
Mukuro: *glances at his watch* Another five minutes or so~. *looks at Tsuna*
Tsuna: M-maybe we should go check on it--? I think we've played enough bowling for today.
Mukuro: *stands up* Yes, I'd say so~. Although, I think you're just saying that because you were losing~. *wanders over to the oven to check on the cake*
Tsuna: [ maybe just a bit of a pout ] I-I just want to eat some cake.
Mukuro: *laughs at the pout* Well so do I, but good things come to those who wait~. It's nearly down, though~. *leans against the counter again*
Tsuna: [ props his elbows onto the counter next to him and holds up his head, still pouting ] That's what everyone says. [ siiigh ]
Mukuro: *glances down at him* *reaches out and runs a hand through his hair*
Tsuna: [ shifts his weight onto one elbow and tries swatting Mukuro's hand away with his ] Wh-what are you doing that for?!
dynastic paradox: *grabs Tsuna's hand* Because I want to~.
Tsuna: [ tries to pull it out of his grip ] H-hey!
Mukuro: *leans down to his level, smirking dangerously* You were swatting me away~.
Tsuna: [ leans back a bit ] Y-you were playing with my hair!
Mukuro: And you have a problem with that~?
Tsuna: I-it feels weird. [ frowns at him ]
Mukuro: *at least, he's not getting his feet touched :|* *stares at him, his expression totally calm* *hears the timer go off* *lets go of Tsuna's hand*
Tsuna: [ quickly pulls back and breathes a sigh of relief. thank god for the timer! ]
Mukuro: *smiles a little and wanders over to the oven* *grabs the oven mitts and opens the door to pull out the cake*
Tsuna: [ moves over to the oven, keeping a fair distance from Mukuro, trying to take a look at the cake ]
Mukuro: *places it on the counter to let it cool* It needs to cool for awhile, so we're going to be waiting for a bit~. *glances at Tsuna*
Tsuna: A few more minutes isn't too bad. [ small smile, looking at the cake ] I-it looks good.
Mukuro: *smiles back at him* Have you ever had pineapple upside down cake before~?
Tsuna: [ shakes head ] I-I've never even heard of it before today.
Mukuro: Hm, interesting~. *leans on the counter again, watching Tsuna idly* It's quite delicious, I assure you~. It's nothing compared to something with chocolate in it, though~.
Tsuna: [ glances over to Mukuro ] You sure like chocolate..
Mukuro: *laughs* It's my favorite food~.
Tsuna: [ props head on hands on the counter again, giving a bit of a sigh ] That must be nice, to have a favorite.
Mukuro: *tilts his head curiously at him* You don't have a favorite food~?
Tsuna: N-not really. I think I like just about anything.
Mukuro: *nods* Ah, I see~. *knows it's gunna take probably a half hour for the cake to cool* What do you like to eat often, though~?
Tsuna: Um, sushi, I guess-- Yamamoto used to make it a lot for us back in Namimori. [ rubs the back of his head ] M-mostly junk food, though..
Mukuro: Hm, sushi is good~. *hasn't had in ages, though* *glances at the cake and wishes he could make it cool faster because it looks delicious*
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it's been a while though. [ staring at the cake, hoping that'll make it cool fasterrr ] H-how long is it going to take to cool again?
Mukuro: Yes, I haven't had sushi in awhile~. Not since we left Japan and that was ages ago~. *grabs the oven mitts again* Another half hour probably and we have to do the upside down part~. Can you grab that platter over on the counter for me~? *smiles at Tsuna*
Tsuna: Ah, sure. [ grabs it and places it by Mukuro ]
Mukuro: Hm, thanks~. *picks up the cooling cake pan and gently, carefully turns it upside down on the platter, giving it a bit of a shake*
Tsuna: [ watches the cake fall out of the pan, surprised at how nice it turned out, smiling ]
Mukuro: *smiles too* *once the cake falls out of the pan, he puts it in the sink* It still needs to cool for a bit~. *although, he's tempted to just cut a piece now that it's out of the pan*
Tsuna: Haaah, waiting is so hard.. [ really wants to try some already! ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *glances at him* Well, I suppose we can cut a piece now~. *goes and grabs a knife from the drawer*
Tsuna: [ grins and goes to fetch a plate from the cupboard ] Here you go-!
Mukuro: *takes the plate from him and puts it on the counter then hands him the knife* Here~.
Tsuna:: [ takes it and cuts out a small slice, holding up the plate to Mukuro ] You can try first.
Mukuro: *blinks* *then smiles* No, you~. I'll have the next piece~.
Tsuna: O-okay then. [ takes a small bite and makes a bit of a face ] A-ack, s-still a little too hot.
Mukuro: Hm, perhaps we should have let it cool longer~.
Tsuna: P-probably. [ sticks out his tongue for a second ] It does taste really good though.
Mukuro: *smirks* I'm glad it does~. I don't lie about these things~. *cuts himself a piece and takes a small bite*
Tsuna: [ blows on his piece and nibbles at it a little ] Where did you learn how to make this?
Mukuro: *shrugs* A long time ago~. *takes another bite*
Tsuna: [ decides that would not be a good line of conversation to pursue so just occupies his mouth with eating! ]
Mukuro: *good choice, Tsuna* *eats too!* *savors it*
Tsuna:: [ finishes his piece, licking his lips ] At least it was well worth the wait. [ smiles ]
Mukuro: *laughs* *finishes his piece* We should probably let the rest of it cool before we eat more~. *intending to leave no leftover*
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it'll probably taste better then too. [ moves over to the fridge ] Do you want anything to drink?
Mukuro: Milk would be good, thanks~. *sighs and leans against the counter*
Tsuna: [ pulls out the milk carton and a couple of glasses, filling both. hands one to Mukuro ] Cheers?
Mukuro: Kufufufu~. *takes the glasses and nods at him* Cheers~.
Tsuna: [ takes a sip before downing half the glass ] Haaah. [ now has a milk moustache and doesn't notice it, derp ]
Mukuro: *ends up draining more of his glass* *has a milk moustache too*
Tsuna: [ looks up at Mukuro and laughs ] Y-you have a little something above your lips.
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow and then glances at Tsuna* ... So do you~. *smirks* Kufufu~.
Tsuna: A-ahh, do I? [ bit embarrassed! tries to lick it off, but only gets half of it ] Gone now?
Mukuro: *laughs, shaking his head a bit* Nope~. *leans in and licks off the rest for him >D*
Tsuna: [ squeaks in surprise and backs away, pressing up against the counter ] M-Mukuro! [ rubbing at his lips with the back of his hand now ]
Mukuro: *pulls away, smirking* I was getting the rest of it~. *licks off his own milk moustache*
Tsuna: Y-you didn't have to get it for me! [ looking down, cheeks red ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. I wanted to get it off for you, though~. *might be standing in front him, totally pressing up against the counter but not really*
Tsuna: [ looks up and realizes Mukuro is AWFULLY CLOSE ] Y-you didn't have to do it like that. [ frowning again ]
Mukuro: *kinda studying him* *rests a hand on Tsuna's waist* *smirks* So~?
Tsuna: [ tenses up at the hand and tries to straighten himself, maaaybe trying to slide out from under him ] Wh-why can't you do anything in a less embarrassing way?
Mukuro: *isn't letting him get away that easily!* *leans down closer to him* Because I can't, Sawada Tsunayoshi~. *lets his name roll off his tongue*
Tsuna: [ inches up higher on the counter, trying to avoid being too close and ignoring the way his name is said ] S-s-stop being so frustrating.
Mukuro: *leans even closer, not letting go of Tsuna's waist* But why~? *slides a hand around Tsuna's neck*
Tsuna: [ gives him a grumpy look, uncomfortable with all this touching ] B-because it's.. annoying-!
Mukuro: *strokes his neck a little* Do I make you feel uncomfortable~? *knows he does, he's just being an ass*
Tsuna: Wh-what do you think?! Of course you do!
Mukuro: *laughs and leans a little closer* I'm sorry~. *whispers* *will never be sorry* *brushes his lips a little over Tsuna's*
Tsuna: Y-you don't-- [ stops mid-sentence and freezes up at that contact, cheeks turning redder by the second ]
Mukuro: *chuckles* I don't what~? *smirks against Tsuna's lips, not exactly kissing him*
Tsuna: [ leans his head back so their lips aren't touching anymore ] You don't mean that-- you're not sorry at all!
Mukuro: *pulls back, almost frowning* You're right now, I'm not sorry~. Hm~. *lets go of him and steps back*
Tsuna: [ slides away from Mukuro, hand over mouth, blushing ]
Mukuro: *leans against the counter, watching him blush* *crosses his arms and smirks in amusement*
Tsuna: [ throws him a glance ] S-stop smirking at me like that. I-it's unsettling!
Mukuro: Is it~? *that's the point, Tsuna* *laughs*
Tsuna: [ just frowns at him ] Yes!
Mukuro: I think you're taking this far too seriously~.
Tsuna: Wh-what would you know? You don't take anything seriously!
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow* That's not true~.
Tsuna: Y-you definitely don't seem to, then.
Mukuro: *uncrosses his arms* Kufufu~. I suppose you have a lot to learn then~.
Tsuna: [ looks away, frowning ] I-I guess.
Mukuro: *sighs and pushes away from the counter* Would you like another piece of cake~? It should be cool now~.
Tsuna: S-sure. [ wanders back to the cake, keep his distance from Mukuro again ]
Mukuro: *glances over at the other wall, thinking* *doesn't really want another piece of cake*
Tsuna: [ cuts out a tiny piece and nibbles on it, looking over to Mukuro ] ... [ refrains from interrupting his thoughts ]
Mukuro: *wanders over to the sink and puts his empty milk glasses in it* *glances over at Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ takes a few more bites before getting enough courage to speak ] ... something wrong?
Mukuro: Hm~? *shakes his head* No, nothing's wrong~. I'm just thinking, I suppose~. *smiles* Cake still good~?
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it's really good. [ small smile ] What are you thinking about?-- um, if you don't mind me asking.
Mukuro: *blinks* *tilts his head curiously at him, smiling thoughtfully* Nothing interesting, really~.
Tsuna: Oh. [ pops the rest of the cake in his mouth and mumbles out ] I-I just thought you looked kinda sad.
Mukuro: *laughs* Sad~? No, I'm not sad~. Why would I be sad~?
Tsuna: [ shrugs ] I don't know, you're weird.
Mukuro: *wanders over to the table and sits down in one of the chairs* Weird in a good way~?
Tsuna: [ takes a seat across from him, propping his elbows up again, a thoughtful look on his face ] No, weird in a... weird way.
Mukuro: *props his chin up on his hand, looking at Tsuna lazily* *smiles a little* That makes perfect sense~. *laughs*
Tsuna: [ closes his eyes and in a declarative voice ] You're just weird.
Mukuro: *shrugs, totally amused* Kufufu~. I suppose I can accept that~.
Tsuna: [ sighs and is mostly talking to himself ] Always get stuck with the weird people.
Mukuro: *hears this* Is that a bad thing~?
Tsuna: Ye-- [ stops himself and thinks about it for a second ] ... no, maybe not.
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow, sitting up a little* Hm, interesting~. *feels tired now*
Tsuna: [ resting against one hand, looking at Mukuro now ] Getting tired..? [ intuition at work! ]
Mukuro: *nods, closing his eyes for a moment* Yes~. *opens them and looks at him* Are you tired~?
Tsuna: J-just a little. [ yawns a little ] Baking is.. a lot more tiring than I thought.
Mukuro: *stands up slowly* Perhaps we should retire for the night then~.
Tsuna: That sounds good-- [ gets up and leans against the table because he's nodding off slightly already ]
Mukuro: I'm going to wrap up the cake first to keep it fresh~. *walks over to the counter and wraps up the cake quickly*
Tsuna: [ accidentally slinks back into the chair while he does that, eyes closed, possibly.. already asleep orz ]
Mukuro: *turns around and looks at Tsuna* *could have swore he got up already* *sighs and walks over to him* *nudges him a bit*
Tsuna: [ incoherent mumbly sleep talk! ]
Mukuro: *laughs quietly* *glances around* *knows he can't just LEAVE HIM there* *sighs and gently pulls out the chair* *hesitates for a moment*
Tsuna: [ movement causes him to slump a bit and shift slightly ]
Mukuro: *gently, he picks up Tsuna in his arms, thankful that he's pretty light*
Tsuna: [ instinctively holds onto Mukuro's shirt ]
Mukuro: *smiles a little when he does this* *holds onto him a bit more tightly and then walks out of the kitchen, down the hallway and towards Tsuna's room*
Tsuna: [ turns his head and murmurs sleepily into his shirt ] M-Muku.. ro.. [ still asleep! ]
Mukuro: *glances down at him curiously* *nudges open the door to Tsuna's room* *walks over to the bed and lays Tsuna down carefully, trying not to wake him up*
Tsuna: [ hasn't woken up, still sleeping peacefully, sleeptalking some more before only his slow breathing can be heard in the quiet room ]
Mukuro: *finding this strangely cute and bizarre at the same time* *sighs a little, taking a step back, studying him* *stifles a yawn*
Tsuna: [ makes a little noise and wrinkles his nose, lightly gripping at the sheets underneath him ]
Mukuro: *smiles at him* *grabs a blanket and covers him with it* *stands back and studies him again* *then shakes his head* Hm, goodnight, Sawada Tsunayoshi~. *whispers this then flicks off the light and wanders back to his room to go to sleep or something*
Mukuro and Tsuna bake a pineapple upside down cake together (sorry Dino!) and are ridiculously cute. Maybe even a little awkward too. Rated NC-17 as always. Your characters did not see this and no Tsunas were raped in the process. Thank you for choosing the Reborn cast for all your crack and cuteness needs and please enjoy the log.
Tsuna: [ sticks his head in from the doorway to check if Mukuro has arrived at the kitchen yet ]
Mukuro: *isn't there yet!* *is actually five feet behind Tsuna* *grins* *approaches him as quietly as he can* Kufufu~
Tsuna: [ assumes he hasn't arrived yet and walks in a bit, looking around ]
Mukuro: *sneaks up behind him and places a hand on Tsuna's shoulder* Hello, Sawada Tsunayoshi~
Tsuna: Hiii-! [ jumps and turns around, smacking his hand away from surprise ] M-Mukuro!
Mukuro: *laughs and takes a step back, pulling his hand away*
Tsuna:: That isn't funny! [ frowns and takes a step back away from him, sighing ]
Mukuro: I think it's very funny~ *smiles*
Tsuna: Y-you need to stop surprising people like that!
Mukuro: That takes the fun out of it, though~
Tsuna: [ mumbles ] You have the weirdest definition of fun.. [ moves over to the table ]
Mukuro: *totally heard that* My definition of fun is unique, I can't help that~. *follows him over to the table*
Tsuna: [ thinks something along the line of oh, you're definitely unique, alright-- ] S-so, how do we make that thing you were talking about?
Mukuro: *pulls something out of his pocket* Oh, it's rather simple, pineapple upside down cake~. *wanders over to the pantry and starts pulling out ingredients*
Tsuna: [ follows after him, keeping a bit of distance ] Do you need me to get anything?
Mukuro: Yes, I need you to get the eggs and butter from the fridge~. And the pineapple~. *glances at him*
Tsuna: [ scuttles on over to the fridge to acquire the ingredients ] How many eggs?
Mukuro: Four eggs~. Oh, and I need sour cream, too~. *looks down at the piece of paper again* *lining the ingredients on the counter*
Tsuna: [ takes whatever he needs out one by one and places it on the counter as well ] Th-there.
Mukuro: *glances over at him, chuckling* Thank you~. *smiles at him* *brushes a hand over Tsuna's shoulder as he goes to grab a bowl*
Tsuna: [ shrinks down a bit from that and sidesteps so he's away from Mukuro ]
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow* *grabs the bowl from the cupboard and puts it on the oven* Can you preheat the oven~?
Tsuna: S-sure-! [ makes his way over to the oven ] What temperature should it be..?
Mukuro: *starts cutting up the pineapple* 325 degrees~.
Tsuna: [ sets it and wanders back over to him ] Anything else?
Mukuro: *glances at the table full of stuff* For now, no~. *smiles at him*
Tsuna: [ takes a seat and supposes he'll just watch Mukuro chop up that pineapple for now-- not like he has anything better to do! ]
Mukuro: *well, he gets the impression that Tsuna isn't very good in the kitchen, so he won't let him play just yet* *finishes cutting up the pineapple* Would you put the flour, baking powder, almost and salt in the other bowl for me~?
Tsuna: O-okay. [ goes over to the stuff, picking out what he needs and glances over to Mukuro ] Where's your recipe?
Mukuro: Ah yes~. *hands him the little piece of paper* *grabs a saucepan and walks over to the stove, beginning to work on the caramel sauce* *remembering the last time he was in the kitchen, attempting to bake something*
Tsuna: Th-thanks. [ measures out the ingredients according to the recipe and dumps it all in the bowl, giving it a quick shake to settle everything. looks over Mukuro ] Wh-what else should I be doing? [ derp feeling a little useless ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *finishes melting the caramel mixture on the stove* *glances behind at Tsuna* Get another bowl~.
Tsuna: [ does so and puts the bowl down on the counter with a bit of a clang! ] O-oops. [ rubs the back of his head a bit ]
Mukuro: *turns around when he hears the clang* *blinks* What happened~? *pouring the carmel sauce into the cake pan*
Tsuna: N-nothing really! [ waves his hand a bit to dismiss it ]
Mukuro:*raises an eyebrow* Try not to destroy the kitchen~. *slight chuckle in his voice* *puts the sauce pan in the sink and then walks over to the counter with the pan* *brushes past Tsuna oh so smoothly*
Tsuna: I-I'm not! [ almost squeaks when Mukuro brushes past him ]
Mukuro: *picks up the other bowl* I was just checking~. *smiles* *grabs the sugar and butter* *glances at Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ blinks at him, not sure what he's looking back at him for ] ..? D-do you need me?
Mukuro: Would you like to mix~? I have faith that you're not like Cavallone when it comes to having decent mixing skills~. *plugs in the electric mixer*
Tsuna: Um, sure. [ walks over to him to take the mixer ] I-I wouldn't think Dino-san would be very good at anything in the kitchen.. not without his men at least.
Mukuro: *leans against the counter, watching him* You would be quite correct~. Kufufu~.
Tsuna: [ feels slightly uncomfortable with Mukuro watching over him like that, but starts mixing anyway. slowly adds in the other ingredients just as he starts getting the hang of it, some of the dough flings out of the bowl and onto his face and the counter ] A-ack!
Mukuro: *watches him closely, making sure he doesn't make a mess* ... *moves over to him when he starts making a mess, brushing a hand over Tsuna's waist* Let me~. *takes the mixer from him and finishes the job*
Tsuna: S-sorry-! [ steps back from the counter and goes to look for a towel or something to clean himself ]
Mukuro: *grabs his wrist before he can get far enough away* *grins*
Tsuna: M-Mukuro--? [ looks up, confused ]
Mukuro: *leans over and licks the batter off Tsuna's face*
Tsuna: Ah! [ turns his head the other way because ohgodwtfjshj ]
Mukuro: *chuckles a little and then pulls away, licking his lips a bit* I think it needs something~.
Tsuna: [ rubs at his face with his free hand and glares at Mukuro ] Y-you could've just tried it off the mixer!!
Mukuro: But it tasted so much better off your face~. Kufufu~. *smirks*
Tsuna: Wh-what kind of person licks cake batter off of someone else's face?!
Mukuro: Someone like me, I suppose~.
Tsuna: Y-you--! You're so frustrating! [ looks away from him, blushing ] I-is it all off at least? [ rubbing at his cheek ]
Mukuro: You're not the first person to tell me that~. *can see that blush, Tsuna!* *completely and utterly amused* *looks at his face, knowing it's totally clean* Nope, you've missed a bit~.
Tsuna: Wh-where? [ ready to take on that bit of batter! ]
Mukuro: *reaches over and brushes a hand over Tsuna's cheek* There~.
Tsuna: [ looks up at Mukuro, cheeks turning redder ] Th-thanks.
Mukuro: *smirks* You're welcome~.
Tsuna: [ gives a weak smile back-- ] S-so, what are we supposed to do next?
Mukuro: Oh yes, we should finish, hm~? We just need to put the pineapples on and then add the batter to the pan~.
Tsuna: Th-that doesn't sound too hard. Pineapples first?
Mukuro: Yes~. *hands him the bowl of pineapples*
Tsuna: [ takes it and arranges the pineapple slices into the pan, looking back at Mukuro ] How's that?
Mukuro: Satisfactory~. *pours the batter over the top of it*
Tsuna: [ watches him ] H-how long is it going to take to bake?
Mukuro: A little more than an hour~. *picks up the pan and puts it in the oven*
Tsuna: pouty-sort-of-frown ] Such a long time..
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *leans against the counter and crosses his arms, looking at Tsuna* It's not that long~. We can always pass the time~. *smile*
Tsuna: [ looks over at Mukuro, slightly uncomfortable (but when isn't he around him?) ] Wh-what should we do then..?
Mukuro: *shrugs* Whatever you like~. *sets the baking timer*
Tsuna: [ thinking face on! ] There really isn't much to do on this ship..
Mukuro: That explains why everyone seems to be so bored most of the time~. At least when we were on land, I could go and do things~. *sigh*
Tsuna: [ sighs as well ] I guess we need to visit islands and ports more often-- I think we'll all go insane if we're out at sea for too long. [ mumbles ] I'm definitely reaching that point.
Mukuro: Perhaps, we should~. *studying him* Or we could always buy a pinball machine~. Endless entertainment for us all, kufufu~.
Tsuna: I'm not sure a pinball machine would entertain us for too long.. We'd probably get bored of it the next day. [ leans on the counter, looking up in thought ]
Mukuro: Fooseball table then~? Ping pong~? I was thinking our own bowling alley myself~. *grins*
Tsuna: C-can we even fit a bowling alley on this ship?
Mukuro: *laughs* Anything is possible~.
Tsuna: M-maybe, but I think we should just.. try less expensive methods.
Mukuro: *uncrosses his arms and checks on the cake even though it's been five minutes* *glances at Tsuna* It can be done, you know~.
Tsuna: .. Hm? -- bowling?
Mukuro: *nods* Yes, bowling~. *walks over to him*
Tsuna: H-how? [ can't exactly wrap his mind around this; ]
Mukuro: Watch and learn~. *faces the other wall in the kitchen, closing his eyes* *the kanji for one appears in one of his eyes and like that, half the kitchen is now a bowling alley*
Tsuna: [ steps back in surprise, noting how weird it is to have a half-kitchen-bowling-alley hybrid ] H-haah, I forgot you could do that..
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *glances at him* Are you up for a game then~?
Tsuna: [ laughs weakly ] M-might as well, I guess.
Mukuro: Excellent~. *brushes past him and walks over to the bowling ball rack and picks out a ball*
Tsuna: [ steps back a bit as Mukuro brushes past and goes over to the rack too to pick out the... lightest ball OTL ]
Mukuro: *picks up a ball that says his name on it* You're first~. *looks at Tsuna*
Tsuna: Um, okay. [ goes up and knocks down one pin the first time and gets a gutter the second! looks rather dispirited because he knows he's not too good at this sob;; ]
Mukuro: *sits down on one of the benches and watches* ... *raises an eyebrow* My, my~ *stands up and bowls himself a strike because duh, this is HIS ILLUSION* Kufufu~.
Tsuna: [ what a cheater~ ] ... [ goes back up and has better luck this time! 5 pins down this time! smiling just a little bit, maybe. ]
Mukuro: *nods a little* Hm~. *bowls himself a strike again* *makes it look easy, really*
Tsuna: [ grumbleee ] Y-you're not playing fair, are you?
Mukuro: Kufufu~. It's my illusion, I play how I want~. *smiles at him*
Tsuna: That's cheating! [ frownnnning ]
Mukuro: So~? *brushes past him again*
Tsuna: [ steps back after he does that and bites his lip ] R-remind me why I'm in your illusion again.
dynastic paradox; Because I felt like bowling and it's no fun to bowl alone~. *pauses* Obviously~.
Tsuna: B-but all you get are strikes-- you aren't even really playing!
Mukuro: Getting strikes is playing~. There's a certain way you have to curve the ball to get a strike, you know~.
Tsuna: ... h-how do you do that? [ slightly interested in this technique ]
Mukuro: It's relatively easy~. I can show you if you like~.
Tsuna: Okay-- show me.
Mukuro: *approaches Tsuna, gently grabbing onto his arm, moving it in the proper way to get a strike* *does this a few times* *standing very close to Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ erp, was not expecting that at all-- blushing a bit while trying to focus on the bowling ball ]
Mukuro: *smirks* Now for the rest of your body movements~. *places a hand on his waist and does the arm movements again, guiding him on how to throw the ball*
Tsuna: [ hand on waist makes things uncomfortable. shifting slightly but it doesn't really help ] O-okay.
Mukuro: Do you think you have it now~? *asks this via ear whisper*
Tsuna: [ feels a shiver run down his spine with that ] Um, s-sure!
Mukuro: *having a wonderful time unsettling him like this* I'll let you try then~. *lets go of him*
tsuna life: [ breathes in and tries to do it, accidentally closing his eyes right at the moment of letting go and just hopes he gets something! ] Pleasepleaseplease. [ talking to himself ]
Mukuro: *takes a step back and watches him*
Tsuna: [ finally opens one eye in time to see all the pins fall ] I-I did it! [ ffff overjoyed from not failing! ]
Mukuro: *grins* Kufufu~. I told you I'd show you how to get a strike, didn't I~?
Tsuna: Thanks, Mukuro! [ flashes him a big smile, cheeks flushed from excitement ]
Mukuro: I suppose you're welcome~. *watching him from his seat on the bench* *smiles back at him*
Tsuna: [ thinks for a second ] Do you think the cake is done now..?
Mukuro: *glances at his watch* Another five minutes or so~. *looks at Tsuna*
Tsuna: M-maybe we should go check on it--? I think we've played enough bowling for today.
Mukuro: *stands up* Yes, I'd say so~. Although, I think you're just saying that because you were losing~. *wanders over to the oven to check on the cake*
Tsuna: [ maybe just a bit of a pout ] I-I just want to eat some cake.
Mukuro: *laughs at the pout* Well so do I, but good things come to those who wait~. It's nearly down, though~. *leans against the counter again*
Tsuna: [ props his elbows onto the counter next to him and holds up his head, still pouting ] That's what everyone says. [ siiigh ]
Mukuro: *glances down at him* *reaches out and runs a hand through his hair*
Tsuna: [ shifts his weight onto one elbow and tries swatting Mukuro's hand away with his ] Wh-what are you doing that for?!
dynastic paradox: *grabs Tsuna's hand* Because I want to~.
Tsuna: [ tries to pull it out of his grip ] H-hey!
Mukuro: *leans down to his level, smirking dangerously* You were swatting me away~.
Tsuna: [ leans back a bit ] Y-you were playing with my hair!
Mukuro: And you have a problem with that~?
Tsuna: I-it feels weird. [ frowns at him ]
Mukuro: *at least, he's not getting his feet touched :|* *stares at him, his expression totally calm* *hears the timer go off* *lets go of Tsuna's hand*
Tsuna: [ quickly pulls back and breathes a sigh of relief. thank god for the timer! ]
Mukuro: *smiles a little and wanders over to the oven* *grabs the oven mitts and opens the door to pull out the cake*
Tsuna: [ moves over to the oven, keeping a fair distance from Mukuro, trying to take a look at the cake ]
Mukuro: *places it on the counter to let it cool* It needs to cool for awhile, so we're going to be waiting for a bit~. *glances at Tsuna*
Tsuna: A few more minutes isn't too bad. [ small smile, looking at the cake ] I-it looks good.
Mukuro: *smiles back at him* Have you ever had pineapple upside down cake before~?
Tsuna: [ shakes head ] I-I've never even heard of it before today.
Mukuro: Hm, interesting~. *leans on the counter again, watching Tsuna idly* It's quite delicious, I assure you~. It's nothing compared to something with chocolate in it, though~.
Tsuna: [ glances over to Mukuro ] You sure like chocolate..
Mukuro: *laughs* It's my favorite food~.
Tsuna: [ props head on hands on the counter again, giving a bit of a sigh ] That must be nice, to have a favorite.
Mukuro: *tilts his head curiously at him* You don't have a favorite food~?
Tsuna: N-not really. I think I like just about anything.
Mukuro: *nods* Ah, I see~. *knows it's gunna take probably a half hour for the cake to cool* What do you like to eat often, though~?
Tsuna: Um, sushi, I guess-- Yamamoto used to make it a lot for us back in Namimori. [ rubs the back of his head ] M-mostly junk food, though..
Mukuro: Hm, sushi is good~. *hasn't had in ages, though* *glances at the cake and wishes he could make it cool faster because it looks delicious*
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it's been a while though. [ staring at the cake, hoping that'll make it cool fasterrr ] H-how long is it going to take to cool again?
Mukuro: Yes, I haven't had sushi in awhile~. Not since we left Japan and that was ages ago~. *grabs the oven mitts again* Another half hour probably and we have to do the upside down part~. Can you grab that platter over on the counter for me~? *smiles at Tsuna*
Tsuna: Ah, sure. [ grabs it and places it by Mukuro ]
Mukuro: Hm, thanks~. *picks up the cooling cake pan and gently, carefully turns it upside down on the platter, giving it a bit of a shake*
Tsuna: [ watches the cake fall out of the pan, surprised at how nice it turned out, smiling ]
Mukuro: *smiles too* *once the cake falls out of the pan, he puts it in the sink* It still needs to cool for a bit~. *although, he's tempted to just cut a piece now that it's out of the pan*
Tsuna: Haaah, waiting is so hard.. [ really wants to try some already! ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. *glances at him* Well, I suppose we can cut a piece now~. *goes and grabs a knife from the drawer*
Tsuna: [ grins and goes to fetch a plate from the cupboard ] Here you go-!
Mukuro: *takes the plate from him and puts it on the counter then hands him the knife* Here~.
Tsuna:: [ takes it and cuts out a small slice, holding up the plate to Mukuro ] You can try first.
Mukuro: *blinks* *then smiles* No, you~. I'll have the next piece~.
Tsuna: O-okay then. [ takes a small bite and makes a bit of a face ] A-ack, s-still a little too hot.
Mukuro: Hm, perhaps we should have let it cool longer~.
Tsuna: P-probably. [ sticks out his tongue for a second ] It does taste really good though.
Mukuro: *smirks* I'm glad it does~. I don't lie about these things~. *cuts himself a piece and takes a small bite*
Tsuna: [ blows on his piece and nibbles at it a little ] Where did you learn how to make this?
Mukuro: *shrugs* A long time ago~. *takes another bite*
Tsuna: [ decides that would not be a good line of conversation to pursue so just occupies his mouth with eating! ]
Mukuro: *good choice, Tsuna* *eats too!* *savors it*
Tsuna:: [ finishes his piece, licking his lips ] At least it was well worth the wait. [ smiles ]
Mukuro: *laughs* *finishes his piece* We should probably let the rest of it cool before we eat more~. *intending to leave no leftover*
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it'll probably taste better then too. [ moves over to the fridge ] Do you want anything to drink?
Mukuro: Milk would be good, thanks~. *sighs and leans against the counter*
Tsuna: [ pulls out the milk carton and a couple of glasses, filling both. hands one to Mukuro ] Cheers?
Mukuro: Kufufufu~. *takes the glasses and nods at him* Cheers~.
Tsuna: [ takes a sip before downing half the glass ] Haaah. [ now has a milk moustache and doesn't notice it, derp ]
Mukuro: *ends up draining more of his glass* *has a milk moustache too*
Tsuna: [ looks up at Mukuro and laughs ] Y-you have a little something above your lips.
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow and then glances at Tsuna* ... So do you~. *smirks* Kufufu~.
Tsuna: A-ahh, do I? [ bit embarrassed! tries to lick it off, but only gets half of it ] Gone now?
Mukuro: *laughs, shaking his head a bit* Nope~. *leans in and licks off the rest for him >D*
Tsuna: [ squeaks in surprise and backs away, pressing up against the counter ] M-Mukuro! [ rubbing at his lips with the back of his hand now ]
Mukuro: *pulls away, smirking* I was getting the rest of it~. *licks off his own milk moustache*
Tsuna: Y-you didn't have to get it for me! [ looking down, cheeks red ]
Mukuro: Kufufu~. I wanted to get it off for you, though~. *might be standing in front him, totally pressing up against the counter but not really*
Tsuna: [ looks up and realizes Mukuro is AWFULLY CLOSE ] Y-you didn't have to do it like that. [ frowning again ]
Mukuro: *kinda studying him* *rests a hand on Tsuna's waist* *smirks* So~?
Tsuna: [ tenses up at the hand and tries to straighten himself, maaaybe trying to slide out from under him ] Wh-why can't you do anything in a less embarrassing way?
Mukuro: *isn't letting him get away that easily!* *leans down closer to him* Because I can't, Sawada Tsunayoshi~. *lets his name roll off his tongue*
Tsuna: [ inches up higher on the counter, trying to avoid being too close and ignoring the way his name is said ] S-s-stop being so frustrating.
Mukuro: *leans even closer, not letting go of Tsuna's waist* But why~? *slides a hand around Tsuna's neck*
Tsuna: [ gives him a grumpy look, uncomfortable with all this touching ] B-because it's.. annoying-!
Mukuro: *strokes his neck a little* Do I make you feel uncomfortable~? *knows he does, he's just being an ass*
Tsuna: Wh-what do you think?! Of course you do!
Mukuro: *laughs and leans a little closer* I'm sorry~. *whispers* *will never be sorry* *brushes his lips a little over Tsuna's*
Tsuna: Y-you don't-- [ stops mid-sentence and freezes up at that contact, cheeks turning redder by the second ]
Mukuro: *chuckles* I don't what~? *smirks against Tsuna's lips, not exactly kissing him*
Tsuna: [ leans his head back so their lips aren't touching anymore ] You don't mean that-- you're not sorry at all!
Mukuro: *pulls back, almost frowning* You're right now, I'm not sorry~. Hm~. *lets go of him and steps back*
Tsuna: [ slides away from Mukuro, hand over mouth, blushing ]
Mukuro: *leans against the counter, watching him blush* *crosses his arms and smirks in amusement*
Tsuna: [ throws him a glance ] S-stop smirking at me like that. I-it's unsettling!
Mukuro: Is it~? *that's the point, Tsuna* *laughs*
Tsuna: [ just frowns at him ] Yes!
Mukuro: I think you're taking this far too seriously~.
Tsuna: Wh-what would you know? You don't take anything seriously!
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow* That's not true~.
Tsuna: Y-you definitely don't seem to, then.
Mukuro: *uncrosses his arms* Kufufu~. I suppose you have a lot to learn then~.
Tsuna: [ looks away, frowning ] I-I guess.
Mukuro: *sighs and pushes away from the counter* Would you like another piece of cake~? It should be cool now~.
Tsuna: S-sure. [ wanders back to the cake, keep his distance from Mukuro again ]
Mukuro: *glances over at the other wall, thinking* *doesn't really want another piece of cake*
Tsuna: [ cuts out a tiny piece and nibbles on it, looking over to Mukuro ] ... [ refrains from interrupting his thoughts ]
Mukuro: *wanders over to the sink and puts his empty milk glasses in it* *glances over at Tsuna*
Tsuna: [ takes a few more bites before getting enough courage to speak ] ... something wrong?
Mukuro: Hm~? *shakes his head* No, nothing's wrong~. I'm just thinking, I suppose~. *smiles* Cake still good~?
Tsuna: Y-yeah, it's really good. [ small smile ] What are you thinking about?-- um, if you don't mind me asking.
Mukuro: *blinks* *tilts his head curiously at him, smiling thoughtfully* Nothing interesting, really~.
Tsuna: Oh. [ pops the rest of the cake in his mouth and mumbles out ] I-I just thought you looked kinda sad.
Mukuro: *laughs* Sad~? No, I'm not sad~. Why would I be sad~?
Tsuna: [ shrugs ] I don't know, you're weird.
Mukuro: *wanders over to the table and sits down in one of the chairs* Weird in a good way~?
Tsuna: [ takes a seat across from him, propping his elbows up again, a thoughtful look on his face ] No, weird in a... weird way.
Mukuro: *props his chin up on his hand, looking at Tsuna lazily* *smiles a little* That makes perfect sense~. *laughs*
Tsuna: [ closes his eyes and in a declarative voice ] You're just weird.
Mukuro: *shrugs, totally amused* Kufufu~. I suppose I can accept that~.
Tsuna: [ sighs and is mostly talking to himself ] Always get stuck with the weird people.
Mukuro: *hears this* Is that a bad thing~?
Tsuna: Ye-- [ stops himself and thinks about it for a second ] ... no, maybe not.
Mukuro: *raises an eyebrow, sitting up a little* Hm, interesting~. *feels tired now*
Tsuna: [ resting against one hand, looking at Mukuro now ] Getting tired..? [ intuition at work! ]
Mukuro: *nods, closing his eyes for a moment* Yes~. *opens them and looks at him* Are you tired~?
Tsuna: J-just a little. [ yawns a little ] Baking is.. a lot more tiring than I thought.
Mukuro: *stands up slowly* Perhaps we should retire for the night then~.
Tsuna: That sounds good-- [ gets up and leans against the table because he's nodding off slightly already ]
Mukuro: I'm going to wrap up the cake first to keep it fresh~. *walks over to the counter and wraps up the cake quickly*
Tsuna: [ accidentally slinks back into the chair while he does that, eyes closed, possibly.. already asleep orz ]
Mukuro: *turns around and looks at Tsuna* *could have swore he got up already* *sighs and walks over to him* *nudges him a bit*
Tsuna: [ incoherent mumbly sleep talk! ]
Mukuro: *laughs quietly* *glances around* *knows he can't just LEAVE HIM there* *sighs and gently pulls out the chair* *hesitates for a moment*
Tsuna: [ movement causes him to slump a bit and shift slightly ]
Mukuro: *gently, he picks up Tsuna in his arms, thankful that he's pretty light*
Tsuna: [ instinctively holds onto Mukuro's shirt ]
Mukuro: *smiles a little when he does this* *holds onto him a bit more tightly and then walks out of the kitchen, down the hallway and towards Tsuna's room*
Tsuna: [ turns his head and murmurs sleepily into his shirt ] M-Muku.. ro.. [ still asleep! ]
Mukuro: *glances down at him curiously* *nudges open the door to Tsuna's room* *walks over to the bed and lays Tsuna down carefully, trying not to wake him up*
Tsuna: [ hasn't woken up, still sleeping peacefully, sleeptalking some more before only his slow breathing can be heard in the quiet room ]
Mukuro: *finding this strangely cute and bizarre at the same time* *sighs a little, taking a step back, studying him* *stifles a yawn*
Tsuna: [ makes a little noise and wrinkles his nose, lightly gripping at the sheets underneath him ]
Mukuro: *smiles at him* *grabs a blanket and covers him with it* *stands back and studies him again* *then shakes his head* Hm, goodnight, Sawada Tsunayoshi~. *whispers this then flicks off the light and wanders back to his room to go to sleep or something*
