[Sora is already pretty convinced that Roxas is just that serious of a person. How many times has Sora said something playful or flirting only for it to totally whoosh over Roxas' head? It's amazing.
But at least that makes Sora snicker.]
I'm a butterfly already I don't need to be a princess too! Besides, a knight can be a prince's protector, right?
["If you like boys in dresses"... Roxas has no words for that. Here he was, thinking it would just be cute to see Sora in one, but actually really delving into that subject? His own cheeks go red as he laughs nervously.]
I... might? I-I don't really know... I've only ever seen guys in dresses on TV and stuff.
[Where it was always treated as a joke thing.]
I think I might... if it's you?
[The last part is said rather quietly as he finds some interesting blades of grass to stare at. It's very good green grass.]
[Sora blinks and he gets this image in his head of getting into a dress for Roxas and it does make him feel some kind of way. He lets out a small laugh out of some embarrassment only and rubs the back of his head.]
Well, I dunno. I guess I could try it.
[Only for Roxas...!! He grins playfully.]
But maybe that's a third or fourth date kind of thing, huh?
[Third or fourth date... Sora was already thinking so far ahead, which makes Roxas feel warm all over. Blush still very much there, he finally looks at Sora with his own grin.]
So you're planning future dates already? You must really like me if you're doing that.
[Sora can feel free to deny that for now. Roxas wouldn't be upset. It's the first date after all.]
[There's a almost blue-screen moment in Roxas' brain when he hears that. Sora likes him? Despite the fact that they are on a date, which means there has to be some like there, it's still surprising to hear. That, or Roxas is just that oblivious when it comes to reading people.
He stares till his eyes scream for him to blink before he does so. Blinking brings him out of his lull and he practically blurts out a reply without a second thought.]
I like you, too. [A pause to catch up happens before he goes on.] For a while now.
[Oh no, was Roxas that easy to read? Well... in this case it's not so bad. It's okay that it's Sora calling him out on it, in a good way.]
I always hoped you'd like me, but it was not that easy to tell for me. The way you are with people on stream kinda made me question things a few times.
[Sora so open and bubbly.]
I should have figured it out with us going on a date...
I get that streaming can sometimes make me put out a personality and all of that and trust me I've had some weird messages before because of it. But it's different with you. We met face to face by accident, remember? It was like meeting you for the first time and that was way more genuine.
[He feels himself blushing.]
And honestly, when I'm with you? I feel really comfortable, happy and like everything is going to be okay. I hope that's not weird?
You can tell anyone, heck I'll even mention it on stream if you want me too. I'm not really into being the kind of streamer that has to keep that stuff secret. Even if people think I'm cute and stuff like that. I'm still just gonna be myself.
[He's not about to get into the weird para-social concepts and streaming with Roxas right now! Instead, he's going to take Roxas' hand.]
[Snack on more than just crackers and cheese, please....]
S-Sure. We can share.
[Yes. Roxas will lead since he know just where to get that ice cream he's already obsessed with. What a nice way for a date to go... Ending with a boyfriend and now the promised treat.]

True... though I think you would look cute in a dress. If you don't count the outfit you turned into a part fairy in as a dress.
[It is not the time to think of Sora in something frillier...]
Maybe I should get you a crown.
no subject
No way, that was more like... uh. A bathrobe or something.
[It was such a thin garment it might as well have been a bathrobe. He feels embarrassed.]
But if you like boys in dresses so much...
[Maybe he can try it? Is that too forward to imply on a first date??]
no subject
I... might? I-I don't really know... I've only ever seen guys in dresses on TV and stuff.

Yeah! I mean, I really do like you Roxas. A lot.
[He might as well be honest because it's true.]
no subject

I like you, too. [A pause to catch up happens before he goes on.] For a while now.
no subject
I kinda figured. We've been talking a lot and everything. I'd be really sad if you didn't like me the same way that I like you.
[Which is also a lot. They've been flirting on and off for a few months now. And Sora's tried to be obvious in his flirting too.]

I thought I was being too forward with my messages, but I guess it worked out. You never told me to stop, so...
[Having someone admit they were comfortable around him was actually really nice to hear.]
I don't think it's weird at all. I feel the same.
no subject
I never told you to stop because I liked messaging you too. I really like you, Roxas.
[Just repeating that to make it clear.]
If it's not weird, we should keep dating, right?
no subject
It's not weird at all. I want to keep going, too.
[Though now that begs a question-]
Wait... how public or private would this be? I won't say anything if you don't want your audience to know.
[Messing up Sora's streamer image is the last thing he wants to do.]
no subject

[He's not about to get into the weird para-social concepts and streaming with Roxas right now! Instead, he's going to take Roxas' hand.]
Let's just keep dating. Okay?
no subject
[Though Roxas will turn his DMs off for a while... just to make sure. Sora might not worry, but his now-boyfriend(?) will.
He squeezes Sora's hand as he nods.]
Okay. [....] We're still gonna get ice cream though, right?
no subject
Yeah! Let's go get that ice cream! We should share something!
[Time to go! Holding hands.]
no subject
S-Sure. We can share.
[Yes. Roxas will lead since he know just where to get that ice cream he's already obsessed with. What a nice way for a date to go... Ending with a boyfriend and now the promised treat.]
