[There was approximately zero thought put into that little outburst. It quite literally came out on instinct or something. Now that he's thinking again...u-um. He looks mortified for a moment and turns just as red, but you know what! It's true and he said it!!
So he does a cheesy little wink which looks ridiculous because it's blatantly obvious that he's trying to play it cool like it was all planned.]
Anytime, babe.
[C-Can he move on now, please. Can he just glide a hand over Dandy's abs all casually and not at all shakily.]
He smooths back his hair (which does absolutely nothing as it bounces back into place) before lowering himself down so his face is level with Dandy's stomach. He even makes a production out of it by licking his lips before he presses a little kiss against his boyfriend's belly button. From there, he drags his tongue along Dandy's torso, relishing in the sensation he gets when he goes over each bit of solidified muscle.
[Dandy's brows rise considerably as he is surprised by his own change of mood, noting the way it feels nearly automatic. Any anger or irritation he was experiencing as a result of his own foolishness vanishes into thin air, and there's something cute about how the younger man licks his lips in that stupidly endearing way, before-]
Whoa.
[It's nice to be appreciated. Physically, emotionally.
Dandy makes a conscious effort not to let his mind run wild, for once. This can stop here, they're both tired-]
[Hagakure's doing his best not to go too overboard on his own end. Be still, his racing heart...
He lifts his head up for a moment, smacking his lips like he's in the middle of a taste test.]
Mm. Yeah, I definitely got salt on you. My bad.
[He works on lapping the rest of it up before peering up at Dandy.]
'm glad you're enjoyin' it. You deserve to feel good.
[Relenting on the sensual licking for the time being, he sits up and goes back to idly running a hand along Dandy's side. He's just applying more salt...]
D'you seriously not remember, though? I figured you'd have plenty of spicy memories.
[Hagakure sits there in a bit of a stunned silence as he takes all of this in. It's weird to be sure, and only adds onto the several mysteries surrounding Dandy that he's noted during his time spent with him.]
Huh.
[That's all he manages to spit out on the matter at first.]
Does it...bother you at all?
[It certainly explains why Dandy is such a "live in the moment" kind of guy, that's for sure. But not remembering so much of your past...it's gotta be weird.]
Most of the time, his head is so foggy that he barely registers he's forgotten something in the first place. But living here and having time with all of it, and not squandering the opportunity to reflect...
Certainly has changed a few things.]
Nah.
Like I said!
[He reaches out to tenderly caress the other man's cheek, Dandy's own gaze bright and curious. Hagakure has a handsome face, his eyes and mouth are expressive, and he has so much time to develop a style that suits him.]
The important stuff sticks.
Which means I've pretty much always got booty on the brain.
[Whatever worry Hagakure may have had over the matter is at the very least tucked away in the back of his mind. All that matters is that Dandy is fine with it.
A smile easily returns to his face and he leans into his lover's touch.]
Good. I'm glad. [...he adds in a coy wink here.] And I'm especially glad that I left such an impression.
[That's like, 30% teasing and 70% sincere. It means a lot to him, that someone in Dandy's position would remember him so fondly. He's...really not used to it at all.
He lowers himself enough for Dandy to have a little more...reach toward the back, let's say, if he so desires.]
You really did! When you were finishin' the first time, it sorta looked like you had snorted a gumbball up your nose. That or some ugly guy named Scotty from *STAR:T-R-E-K was beamin' ya up, I haven't decided.
You ever heard of a thing called "Teleportation Face?"
[That is indeed what it means. He inhales sharply when Dandy goes for it, despite the fact that he pretty much presented his ass for grabbing. It feels nice, okay??
...]
I think I've seen like, one episode of Star Trek. [So he is concerned, to say the least!] What's it look like, and am I gonna be embarrassed by you rememberin' what I look like when I climax?
[Now, despite his horrible language from before, the actual truth of that memory is framed a little differently.
Dandy doesn't remember much of anything, and while several memories, pleasant or unpleasant, have popped back into his noggin at various points in his stay on New Rapture, that is one he can't quite forget. It doesn't matter if Hiro was awkward or shy, or if his face crinkled up and looked funny. Real people, or people and anything else that lives or breathes or even fucks, don't sound ideal or rehearsed.
But that's what Dandy loves about all of it.]
You looked really cute.
Cute as a button. With a pancake booty.
It was one of the sweetest things I ever did see. Seriously.
[Ah, so it turns out he's going to be embarrassed in a totally different way--
No, in truth, that...makes him really happy, actually. His heart doesn't flutter- it soars. A bashful smile creeps across his lips and he has to bury his face in Dandy's chest for a moment. This praise is something he will cherish forever.
[For all the time Hagakure has his face hidden in Dandy's chest, he will feel long fingers running over his hair and scalp, tenderly stroking whatever he can touch. Which is hilarious, considering...]
Thank you for givin' me that gift.
[Dandy makes direct eye contact with the fortune teller, his gaze intense and loving all the same. He resists the urge to mention that the Aloha Oe has room for one more.]
I love makin' you feel good, baby.
[Dandy doesn't voice his other thoughts. How it breaks his heart that Yasuhiro clearly spent so much time on his own, doubting himself and struggling to connect with other, despite having a pure heart in his own right. For someone so nervous to somehow survive one killing game and be axed in the next just doesn't seem fair.]
Everything about that night was pretty magical.
[For a few hours, it had really just been the two of them.]
[He could fall asleep like this- lying down on his boyfriend, getting his (now very soft) hair stroked... He's never felt more safe than when he's with Dandy. It's like being home.]
You've made me feel more than good. You've... [Hm. Let him start over.] To get real deep about it, you've always accepted me for who I am. It's like...my existence means somethin' when I'm with you.
[He's bearing his soul a little bit there, but he thinks it warranted saying. Dandy has seriously had such a profound impact on him.]
I'm really glad I could give you somethin' nice in return, 'cause you mean the whole universe to me.
[Yet it's still so surreal to him to be able to have another person like that in his life now. He really never would have imagined...
He grins a little when that night in general is mentioned.]
It really was. I'm never gonna forget it either. [...] I need to thank you too. You let me take that plunge, and... Well, here we are.
[And the thing is, Hagakure is welcome to fall asleep where he is. Dandy would happily ensure that he slept soundly, only-]
But it does.
[His brow furrows once more, and it's clear from the way the lines around his eyes form that he's worried. He has to make sure that his words are going to be heard.]
Mean somethin'.
It means everything.
I don't think you understand. You're not caught up in all the bullshit like those miserable scumbags. You think at the end of the day, when it's actually all over, that things like money and power mean jack all?
[Hagakure's eyes go wide as he hangs on every word.
"You just wanna live, right?"
"I want to keep on living! I want to open the next door! There must be something new waiting for me!"
His words in opposition to Junko Enoshima's horrible game ring clearly in his head- a reminder of how far he's come. He's clearly not going to double back on it now.]
Yeah. I wanna live. When I got through my first game, I wanted so badly to know what life beyond those walls had in store for me. Good or bad, I was gonna face it head-on.
[He sniffs. Ah, shit, he didn't mean to get emotional again--]
That hasn't changed, even if what I got the first time around was another of these friggin' games. 'cause as long as there's a chance to keep livin', I'm gonna take it.
[He settles on a grin. A watery one on account of the tears that have spilled over, but a grin all the same.]
Yes!
[There's no way he could see himself not at Dandy's side after all of this, but he hadn't even begun to consider the possibilities... Getting to live in the vastness of space and go on exciting adventures with his beloved Space Dandy?
Sign him the fuck up!]
There's nowhere else I'd rather go than with you.
[With that out there, he laughs. It's one unlike anything Dandy's heard come from him before. It's full of excitement, hope, and love.
He's quick to snuggle up to Dandy after that, still grinning like the happiest idiot in the world.]
Yeah, I wanna find Mom first. [He's really glad Dandy was thinking of her too. He really is so thoughtful.] 'cause she's gotta meet you. Man, she's gonna be so surprised, though...
[He could ramble on for hours in excitement if Dandy doesn't stop him.]

I think I can feel the salt from the goddamn French Fries gettin' all over my middle.

Tell me more nice stuff.

Yeah he dropped the braincell again because this is what immediately comes out of his mouth:]
I could lick it off if you want.
[THAT'S NOT WHAT HE ASKED.]

He's been caught off-guard.]

Well, if you're serious about that...
I'm not gonna stop ya.

He has Dandy's go-ahead, so.
He smooths back his hair (which does absolutely nothing as it bounces back into place) before lowering himself down so his face is level with Dandy's stomach.

no subject
Not the specifics, no.
Just...
[He wonders if he should continue forward with that thought. If it will only inspire more questions.
Dandy knows he shouldn't shiver at the touch, but he does.]
All the times I was with you.
And I'm not just pullin that outta my booty-hole, babe... I really can't remember. I don't remember much of anything, most of the time.
I keep tabs on what's important, to me, specifically, but...
Everything else? It just gets lost.
no subject
Huh.

If we ever find our way outta here, how do you feel about a takin' trip right up to the stars?
You can stay with me, if you wanna.
[Forever, he means.]
Y'know! After we manage to make sure that your Ma's doin' okay.
The crew of the Aloha Oe's always got room for one more. And our gig is baggin' rare aliens, baby! That stuff's right up your alley, isn't it?
