What if their taking me seriously just led to escalation, though?... ...I mean, if you think about it from the perspective of wanting to avoid anyone being maimed... or otherwise permanently damaged. [ not that kaoru was going to condone any such course of action, of course. ]
That's true. Would you... How would you like to do it?
[Kaoru has no idea what the height rule is, and wouldn't care if he did, but he doesn't have any problem taking the initiative. He steps closer to Hanatarou, leaning in to press their lips together. It's not a hard kiss, but not particularly gentle either. At least he's not biting.]

That's true.
Would you...
How would you like to do it?

[That's logic, Hanatarou!!]
It only takes a kiss, right? Are you the type to object to that sort of thing?
no subject
Ah? No, I don't mind. What about you?
no subject
I don't mind either. And it is the only way we'll get free, so it would be foolish to object.
no subject
Please feel free.

[ unless he wants hanatarou to take the initiative...?
but going by the height rule, this is the appropriate way. ]

well, that wasn't so bad! ]
Thank you!
Did it work?
no subject
[To test it, Kaoru steps out from under the mistletoe. Thankfully, it actually works. He's free!!]
no subject
Well, then... it was nice seeing you!
no subject
[It totally wasn't nice and he's not glad at all!]
no subject
You don't really have to say that... considering what you told me earlier.

It's just, there's no reason for you to force yourself to say nice things. I don't mind if you'd rather be honest.
no subject
[It's always been easy for Kaoru to lie.]
But if you'd rather I'd be honest... well, I could try.

I'll see what I can do. It was... interesting talking to you.

I hope the rest of your afternoon is better.
