Mikoto Mikoshiba

Hey! Mikoto here! I can't talk right now, but if you leave a message I'll try to get back to you. Especially if you happen to be a lovely lady. [Suddenly, muffled embarrassed noises can be heard in the background] W-why did I say that...

[When the doorbell rings, Mikoto had just got himself a cup of coffee after pouring some milk into Noa's bowl. Who could be ringing his doorbell this late at night?

Now he was worried. Was it Rin, Chiyo or Minako? What if one of them was in trouble?! He instantly rushes over to the door, opening it with a worried expression on his face. ... Only for it to transform to a look of pure skepticism when he sees who it is.

He was definitely surprised.]

You can actually ring the door like a normal person?

[Mikoto, please read the mood.]

[goen]

[ So.

Yuuko is mad at Yato. Because he stole her first kiss? Yato gets that. That's fine. He deserves that. And he's been wracking his brain over what he can do to make the situation marginally less bad. So here's the breakdown:

What is the source of Yuuko's distress? >> Her fairy tale romantic love love first kiss is gone forever.

Who did she want to share it with? >> Mikoto, her current crush and partner in awkward almost-romance. Mikoto is just as pure and fresh as Yuuko is (was?), so she probably saw him as the perfect Prince Charming to share her first kiss with.

And now, moving forward? >> Yuuko might be afraid that her first kiss with Mikoto will feel incongruent, because she's been ruined by Yato while Mikoto is still pure and virginal. What's more, Mikoto might feel threatened once he finds out what happened -- or worse, he might even question Yuuko.

Yato can't turn back time. But he can level the playing field.

His expression is dead serious as he grabs Mikoto by the shirtfront and leans in to kiss him. ]

[There were a lot of things Mikoto was expecting when Yato showed up at his doorstep. One, he was either going to storm into his house and steal his food. Two, he was was here to brag about spending more time with Anya than he did. Or even three, tell him about a shady dude breaking into his shop and some how cause another fire to happen.

Despite his friendship with Yato over the years, he absolutely did not expect this and nothing could begin to prepare him for this.

He doesn't even move. Mikoto's standing there, in complete and total shock. It takes him a while to even feel the kiss because he's that stunned. When it finally dawns on him that oh my god. Someone is kissing me, he immediately shoves Yato away from him and grabs him by the shirtfront.]

W-What...

[He's completely incoherent, and he didn't want to believe that this seriously just happened. Not only that, his face was red from the embarrasment and anger.]

What the hell was that for?!?!

[While he's been slowly coming to terms that he's beginning to develop feelings for Yuuko. He never really thought too much about his first kiss. The idea of kissing someone was far too embarrassing for him to comprehend.

But how dare this idiot, of all people, steal his first kiss!]

[goen]

[ He did it. He took it for the team. He lets go of Mikoto and doesn't resist getting grabbed. Instead, he slowly lifts one hand into a thumbs up. ]

Transitive property.

[ He can think of this as transferring Yuuko's kiss to Mikoto. In fact, he has to. It's the only way Yato will make it through life now. ]

[mikodere]

[Transitive property? What? Whatever the case or dumb reason that Yato might have, it's all going over Mikoto's head because he's so mad right now.

He just had his first kiss stolen. That was something he could never get back. However, as much as he wanted to punch him, he still didn't have it in him to actually do something violent. So, he's going to continue to hold onto his shirt front and yell at him.]

What is that suppossed to mean?! You stole my first kiss you asshole!!!

[Mikoto always called Yato an idiot but he was completely and totally amazed by how much of an idiot that he really was??? Your stupidy transcends the heavens, Yato.]

[goen]

It means math is on my side. In two different ways, even! Ax + Ay = A(x+y)!

[ So if anything, he's bringing Yuuko and Mikoto closer together. Yes. Yato thought all this through very well. ]

Anyway, don't worry about it. You'll thank me later!

I AM SO sorry for the delay ;;

[mikodere]

Why should I ever thank you for taking my first kiss?!?

[Mikoto knew that Yato was stupid. But his mind was being blown by just how stupid he truly was?! Not only is he completely not understanding the math. He's wondering why on earth would he thank him later?!.

There was no way he would ever thank him for this!]

How would you feel if I walked up to you and suddenly pulled you into a kiss?

pets hana gently

[goen]

[ He gives Mikoto an Extremely Dubious look. ]

... I don't even have to entertain that thought, because you'd never have the guts to do it.

[ For some reason, Yato is in the business of calling his friends out on their threats. Walk up to him and suddenly pull him into a kiss, Mikoto. He dares you. ]

I promise I'll think about feeling threatened by it once you've kissed someone of your own volition.

thank you boba (leans on you) 1/2

[mikodere]

[Mikoto just stares at him.

And continues to stare at him, as if that will help prove his point.

Because it doesn't and now he's just getting even more embarrassed that he even suggested such a thing.]

Okay maybe you are right about that... but geez, I want to know why you would even do this to begin with! And don't give me some weird mathematical explanation! It doesn't make any sort of sense.

2/2

[mikodere]

[Then something dawns on him. He was certain this had to be it.]

Are you... drunk?

[goen]

No way. Even if I were, like hell would I think about kissing you for kicks!

[ He smacks Mikoto's hand away and... starts walking off... ]

Don't overthink it. Night!
