[ the look on his face just grows... fond, and it's an expression that has a hint of nostalgia to it. he patiently waits for weiss' verdict regarding the crepe he suggested, but then she asks for one more thing. ]
Just one?
[ as far as he cares right now, she can have as many as she wants. he'll go ahead and purchase a singular milkshake with a heart-shaped straw. ]
It should go nicely with the crepe. [ truly, he's content to just spoil her right now. ]
[ listen, there's a reason why ye xiu isn't the best with relationships. his lack of self-awareness gets him in trouble more often than not... but thankfully, weiss seems to have let it go as soon as the milkshake is up. ]
The mini pancakes. And a milkshake for myself too.
[ the pancakes are stuffed with the lunatian version of nutella so it's amazing to eat it in one bite. as for his milkshake, he gets a strawberry one since that always pairs well. ]
Do you want to walk around? Or should we find a place to sit down?
We should sit down, eat the food, and then go for a walk around the area with our drinks.
[ Somehow, she's devised a strategy on how to handle what they just bought. She only intends to sit down for a few minutes to finish the crepes, though. The event may be small, but it's so lively that Weiss wants to see every bit of it! ]
I think there's going to be a show on the stage, too. I want to see it.
[ Well, the show just so happens to be the moonlacing contest thing, but she doesn't know that yet. ]
[ honestly speaking, ye xiu appreciates that she's thought of a plan. it leaves him the responsibility of guiding her to the benches rather than being the one to decide... when he's around her, he's pretty much willing to go along with all of her whims. she'd only need to ask—
for now, he lets her settle down on the bench first before he follows after, nomming on his pancakes all the while. ]
We could go see it. I heard it was for charity? It's the one they're streaming online, right?
[ it's the only one he knows about... no idea it's about moonlacing too, but that's fine. ]
[ he was ready to agree with her regarding what she said about experiencing everything in-person, but he's immediately distracted. blinking, he looks at her with a raised brow. ]
Seriously? This is the first one? I need to take you out more often, then. There are lots of places around here with food like this.
[ he knows from experience. it's something su mucheng would love to do, so he has no doubt weiss would love it just as much. ]
Oh, yeah. [ as if he didn't just (almost) forget. ] Let's do that first then.
[ he's pretty much done with what he was eating anyway; only the milkshake left, which can be carried around as they see what else the event has to offer. ]
[ Can Ye Xiu even stand being away from a computer for an entire day? Who knows... But Weiss starts walking to where the event is, and it looks like they're about to start. There's an announcer on stage talking about a kissing contest, and Weiss almost spits out her milkshake.
She does not, but she does look away with her hand on her mouth. ]
Didn't you want to be together today? I have all day too.
[ to be honest, he doesn't, but this is weiss so of course he'll drop everything. if he cared, he would have said no in the first place so she better appreciate him a little!!
her reaction to the announcement earns an amused huff, followed by a raised brow. ]
Should we go watch something else if this is too much—?
I did, but I wasn't sure if you were actually going to— [ . . . give her a lot of time. :T She decides not to continue because she can already see herself losing this conversation unless she gets huffy. Not to mention, she's distracted by the event. . . aaaaand promptly decides that this is embarrassing. ]
What, do I look like I'm 10-years old to you? I can handle this!
[ Said all the while her face looks like a tomato. ]
[ listen, ye xiu can't even blame weiss for having no faith in him. if it was anyone else, he probably would have found an excuse so he can go back to grinding whatever event he's currently working on right now. today, however, he positions himself in front of weiss to block her view of the stream. ]
You sure? I don't mind doing something else if this isn't working.
[ he'll go along with whatever, but he'll give her one last chance to refuse...! ]
[ to his credit, he tries not to laugh at her expense so he's allowing himself to be pushed away just to give her the front-row seats to couples kissing. ]
I'm not. I just think we could be doing something better.
[ drumroll, please. ]
Like eating more cute food. [ yeah, she's free to slap him— but he'll start guiding them away from the crowd so they can look! for somewhere to eat!! ] Unless you really want to watch people kiss for charity.

[ Her mood immediately lightens when the milkshake gets served, though. It's cute, too. ]
What are you getting?

The mini pancakes. And a milkshake for myself too.

Do you want to walk around? Or should we find a place to sit down?
[ there are nearby benches around, at least. ]

How's the crepe?
no subject
[ They get to be part of the festivities!!
As for the crepe, it's good so far! It's buttery and they didn't hold back on the fruits. ]
Mm, it's good. I've never eaten something this cute before, too. It almost feels sad munching on a bear head.

[ he knows from experience. it's something su mucheng would love to do, so he has no doubt weiss would love it just as much. ]
You'll just have to let me know when you're free.
no subject
You mean to say more people make food that look like cute animals just so we can behead them and eat them?
no subject
Huh? Nothing that extreme. It's just food, isn't it?
[ weiss?? what are you even thinking about... ]
If it bothers you though, we don't have to eat that stuff.
no subject
[ After being subjected to canned food, she... will treasure the cuteass crepes even though it's like murdering adorable animals. ]
I've just never eaten anything like this before. I didn't know it was a common thing.
no subject
No problem. I'll be sure to take you to more places that serve food like this, then. You have to tell me what kinds you like though...
[ thinking. ]
Waffles? Parfaits? Maybe even sushi?
no subject
[ Ye Xiu, she's an adult!! :( (But... she does have a sweet tooth. She will never, ever admit it, though.) ]
Are there places that serve cute-looking yoghurt?
no subject
I think I know a place or two. Do you want to go there next?
[ today is just going to be a foodie day... ]
no subject
[ There's still the event that they should be checking out!! But she's also curious as to where Ye Xiu might take her. She's very into cafe hopping. ]
no subject

[ >:(!!! She's going to use two hands to push Ye Xiu aside so she can watch. And promptly get embarrassed as the people start kissing ah... ]
It's just. Kissing. It's nothing.
no subject
Absolutely sure? Last chance to change your mind.
[ he's doing this on purpose now. ]
no subject
[ ... Yeah. That's. That's some tongue over there. Weiss has to clear her throat. ]
For maybe five minutes.
no subject
We could be doing something else, you know.
[ it almost sounds like a line from an otome... ]
no subject
It feels like you're treating me like a child.
[ She's nineteen (for now)!!! She's an adult :(!!!! ]
Fine. We can go.
