Hey, looking enthusiastic is against my aesthetic.

[Said with just enough blandness. Though he's a bit pink at Beat buying everything]

[soundsurfing]

[That'll make Beat laugh, piling things into Neku's arms so they can find seats.]

Bro if that the case, yer CLOTHES go against her yer acidic. [you JUST heard it, beat]

[scratchitti]

What's wrong with my clothes! Shiki keeps saying the same thing.

[Neku, you buy everything at JotM you are too Basic]

[soundsurfing]

[He's so trying not to laugh again, biting his bottom lip.]

Dude, jus' come shoppin' wid me one day yo. [No Neku don't]

[scratchitti]

[He huffs]

What, and end up covered in chains or spikes or something like that?

[soundsurfing]

I'm wounded yo, just a skull or two. Spice up yer life an' all.

[He tugs on the collar of Neku's shoulder and play rolls his eyes.]

[scratchitti]

[Neku swats at his hand a little, without much fire]

I guess a little shopping would be okay. I'm not promising I'll wear anything though.

[soundsurfing]

An' I promise not to tell Shiki yer goin' shoppin'!

[It's a tease, because they both know Shiki would be there in an instant.]

[scratchitti]

Yeah, please don't.

>he adored Shiki, but shopping with her was suffering]

[He snorts to the response and his grin is hidden as the lights fall, previews over with.

Sometime during the movie he reaches over to find Neku's hand and folds his fingers in with his, the touch shy despite the confidence Beat had been showing earlier.]

[Hand holding in a movie is way more of a 'date' thing then anything else so far, so Neku can sympathize. His own palm is a little sweaty by a half hour or so in.

Still, he doesn't pull away. The movie is mindless enough (Neku predicts the ending less then 45 minutes in) that his mind can wander a bit. Thinking on what all this means. He had agreed to dating Beat mostly because, well, he had no reason NOT to- he knew he liked guys well enough long before they ever even met. But he didn't really think about dating, guys or girls.

But he felt... comfortable with Beat. And these shy touches make his chest flutter a bit. He doesn't know if that's what attraction is, but it's close enough in his mind for him to be enjoying himself. He can figure out the rest as he goes.

And well, it's Beat. He trusts that Beat won't hate him even if he fucks this up due to not really getting a lot of it.

With that thought in mind he squeezes Beat's hand while the main character on screen is yelling something about getting his ex-wife back]
