[ as soon as their hands fall from zhongli's lips childe reaches to set his other hand atop their ( somewhat ) joined hands. ] Xiansheng. [ squeeze. ] I know you're not. [ he's going to remove the top hand and grab the side of his hair, so he can more easily scoot closer. ] If this was anybody else I wouldn't have bothered at all, but it's not... it's you. And I want to get good, great, even, so maybe one of these days I can feed you.
[ he tries to keep his cool, giving zhongli a confident smile, but there are dozens of sirens and warning bells going off in his head. he’s good, okay at best, really, so he probably shouldn’t try, but… he wants to show zhongli just how much he’s improved, and clearly one instance of doing so wasn’t enough. ]
Sure. [ he reaches for a dumpling, managing to grab it, but he’s quick to bring his other hand beneath it, so he doesn’t spoil their date by sprinkling zhongli in bits of food. ] Here, Xiansheng. [ his chopsticks shake a little, threatening to drop the morsel, but he holds fast. ] Enjoy.
[ Zhongli carefully tilts his head to adjust for the slight wobble in Childe's grip but manages to capture the dumpling in his mouth. He chews it thoughtfully before swallowing it down. ]
Exquisite.
The added romantic flair of being fed by one's partner really does add to the experience.
... [ clears his throat as he lifts his eyes back to zhongli's. ]
[ childe considers saying something in response, but, instead, just leans in to join their lips together for a savory kiss. ] All the more reason to get better then. [ not that he really needed another reason, but the additional motivation couldn't hurt. ]
[ It's terribly inappropriate - he thinks - to interrupt Childe's gracious dinner plans with too much distraction.
But when Childe pulls back from the kiss, Zhongli responds by leaning forward and capturing his lips again. Tongue tracing across his bottom lip until not a speck of sauce or anything else remains. ]
[ sir, sir, you're making it real hard to want to continue eating. ]
[ he looks to his meal for a half a second and then swiftly reaches for zhongli's face, nearly falling out of his chair to do so, but he seemingly doesn't care. he kisses hims again, edging on desperate, as his other hand grabs for his chair - a way to steady himself. ]
Another time. [ he doesn't care about that right now. all he cares about is zhongli. ] I just need you right now, Zhongli Xiansheng.

Re: White Day
He sets down his chopsticks to reach across the table and take Childe's hands in his, lifting it up to brush a kiss across his knuckles. ]
It was not my intention to belittle all the effort you have put into this.
I am impressed - always. By your tenacity. And how you would be willing to work so hard just because it is something that I care about.

Re: White Day
Then you shall need to practice that as well.
[ And he shifts his own chair so that it is closer to Childe and he does not have to reach across the entirety of the table. ]
Would you like to try?

Yes.
All the more reason.

Re: White Day
[ He reaches up to card one hand through Childe's hair, placing a chaste kiss against his jaw. ]
We wouldn't want to waste all of this food. Especially since you brought us out here specifically to enjoy this anniversary.
[ Gentle hands try to lead Childe back to his seat ]
You can be good for me, can't you?
