little snippet of something short and super self indulgent im writing ft swapfell papyrus that will hopefully be done at some point in the next few days!!:
“does it hurt a lot?”
You would have shaken your head if it hadn't been cupped gently in his two hands so you settled for a little “eh” instead.
“It hurt a lot when the needles were going through and when they were putting the jewelry in but now it's mostly just sore.”
Rusty nodded at that, a far off look on his face. You knew that look. He was thinking about something.
Hard.
That could be dangerous.
“What.”
He snapped to attention and looked at you quizzically, still holding your face surprisingly tenderly, like one might cradle a baby bird that has fallen from its nest.
“what what?”
“What were you thinking about, ding dong? I could practically smell the smoke.”
He snorted at the playful ribbing (HA! Rib.) and stared you down with a lopsided smirk on his face.
Uh oh.
“can i kiss you?”
