[ He laughs, setting a hand on her lower back, his fingers lightly caressing her skin. She feels so warm and soft against him that he's content to lay here in silence for a while, but he lets out a laugh when she asks him that. ]
[ She finally has to laugh too, glancing down at him and the robes spread out under them, the riot of cushions around them. She intended to be a little silly and stop thinking so hard for a while, but... not quite like this.
Still. She's happy to let him pet her back for just a moment longer. ]
Me too. Maybe we really do make each other more impulsive.
[ His bangs are sticking to his forehead with sweat and his cheeks are still red, but he doesn't care as he looks up at her instead, taking in her features. ]
I'm probably mostly to blame with that. I'm quite impulsive.
[ He looks so carefree and mussed that she half wants to do something really impulsive and push him back down again. She must look a mess herself, face flushed and hair tousled, but her grin down at him when she lifts her hands to brush his bangs back is giddy. ]
Oh, can I blame you? I guess... you're the one who asked to kiss me again.
[ It was hard to settle for just one or two kisses. Psyche laughs, meeting his eyes for just a moment.
Will she regret it? That's too complicated for her to unravel right now. But, at least about this moment, she doesn't want to give him the wrong idea. ]
[ But she nods and finally slides off of him with a tiny sigh of regret. This isn't really the place to stay cuddling naked. But it would be nice.
Good thing they didn't fling the clothes too far. She offers him his boxers back with a little grin before she starts getting dressed. She at least has to move for him to get his robes back. ]
[ The back-forth of trading clothes and dressing again like this is surprisingly comfortable. The difference to a comparison she's trying not to think about is stark. ]
Not the end of the world, but... [ Well. She laughs as she tugs her shirt back on. ] Well, maybe no one here would think anything of it. Everyone wears so little for swimming.
[ Her medieval sensibilities have been scrambled as it is! ]
[ She blinks in surprise, hands freezing for a moment as she lets him work. It's both thoughtful and a little unexpected. Her smile returns a second later and she reaches over to do the same for him. ]
[ While she's doing that, he manages to get his hair into a bun that doesn't look too terrible. At least, it won't fully give away what they've been up to.
[ She surveys the scene of the crime herself before giving him a conspiratory smile. She has a little experience staging things, it's nice to see it paying off. ]

no subject
Ah, I did. I planned to kiss you once or twice more.
[ But then… they know the rest. ]
I don’t regret it.
[ And Wei Wuxian doesn’t think it’s too soon to say as much either. He won’t regret this. ]

[ He doesn’t think so.
Now that his heart has calmed and his head has stopped spinning, he lets out a sigh. ]
We should probably get dressed soon.

His robes… are a bit sweaty, honestly, so he may need to forego the outermost layer. ]
We are. Wouldn’t have been the end of the world, though.

You’re right. Our undressed state was just one step beyond the swimsuits.

Do you need help with your hair?
no subject
But he shakes his head. ]
I'll be fine putting it into a bun and brushing it out back in my cabana.
no subject
Alright. I'll just... clean up a little here.
[ Not that there's much out of place. But she's going to bustle around to put cushions back so no one needs to wonder what happened here. ]
no subject
When he's done, he surveys her work. ]
Nothing out of place whatsoever. Good work.
no subject
Thank you. It's good teamwork, I think.
no subject
[ He holds his arm out for her to take. ]
Now, shall we be off?
[ we can end here! ]
