[Through his own panic, one emotion that's missing from the mix is that he doesn't feel guilty about it, and he doesn't know why. He should feel guilty, he's essentially just moved in to kiss her without her permission, even if she says it's okay. But there's something at the back of his mind that reminds him of how passionately she kissed him back in that moment, that despite it happening in the heat of the moment, there didn't seem to be any resentment from her that he'd taken this special moment from her. If anything, he swears for a moment that she's feeling exactly the same as him- incredible and elated at the feeling of sharing such an intimate moment.

But when his logic returns, it also reminds him that they've really only just met, and that something strange is happening to the both of them. And there's no doubt in his mind that it has something to do with the marks they've been branded with. The company never told him what the marks were, only that targets had one of different levels of completion. Now, he's finding out, that it just might have to do with how they're received and who else gets them at the same time...meaning there's far more to it that meets the eye.

These are thoughts he'll have later when he thinks about it more thoroughly in the solitude of his apartment, but for now he's trying to keep his head from spinning in shock at his own actions. Yoimiya's blush only serves to make his own grow a deeper red, taking deep breaths. She's not mad. It's okay.]


I... [he breathes out a long sigh, before looking down at his chest. It continues to glow a bright red, but dims slowly over time as he starts to regain control of himself.]

...still. I shouldn't of done that. I don't know how to explain it, but I felt this surging, overwhelming feeling come over me...and it was easy to give into it. It didn't happen until I touched your mark, so I'm guessing it has something to do with that.

[Even despite these facts, his face hasn't stopped burning a bright red, and he still looks uncomfortable, as if he'd really done something embarrassingly wrong.]

I felt stronger, too. Like I could take on the entire world.
