[Kakyoin's face turned slightly red, at the question more than any realization of what he'd said. It was true--Polnareff had proven that ten times over in this conversation alone--so there really wasn't any point in not saying it.]
I, uh...might have tried to tell him, failed completely, and just kissed him outright because I was sick of stumbling over the whole subject.
[He barked a laugh, loud and unapologetic. It wasn't meant mean-spiritedly, but he gripped Kakyoin's hand tightly all the time, just to make sure he didn't pull away.]
That's a good way to do it! I mean, it sounds more like what I'd do than you, but I like it!
The hell would you know about tactless, you've never seen me try to pick up somebody. And it was a good idea! You kissed him, he gave you a fish, and now you're a few months away from a year's anniversary. So it worked out.
That wasn't the kind of confession I'd really hoped for. It worked obviously, but...well, I guess I shouldn't complain that I didn't look very cool in the process.
Kakyoin, he gave you a fish that reminded him of you because it was-- and I'm quoting here-- beautiful and deadly and would fight its own reflection if it was given half a chance. The bar for looking cool isn't exactly high.
