[Of course he knew. But this was...different. This was Arturia. She was different, she deserved respect on a level higher than damned near anyone. He couldn't just-...]

[...-he couldn't just kiss her like she was kissing him.]

[Unlike many people, Diarmuid knew exactly what it felt like to have your heart stop. It had happened to him twice, and now if he didn't know better he'd say it just happened again. His mind went completely blank, shock driving all words or thoughts away in a moment. Questions like 'what are you doing' and more importantly 'why' would just have to wait.]

[ She's relentless with her passion almost as though it had been stored away for months. In fact, it's quite possible that it had been, after all that the pair had endured. From the beginning of her time here, from the time back during the Fourth Holy Grail War, from the past week - all of these events were sure to bring about some emotion in her.

Instead of concerning herself with the repercussions or the amount of people who just might have his head for this, she focuses on just making this the most enjoyable memory that the two could share. Because after this there may never be another smile or word exchanged between the two. ]

[It was worth it. Gods, was it ever worth it. The entire city could be out for his blood and he would accept that consequence gladly if it meant he could just have this one moment and nothing else. Selfish, yes. Stupid, yes. But he couldn't find it in him to care]

[He was more than used to people turning on him for things like this. And once more he knew he would trade away the life he'd built for the sake of a woman, without hesitation.]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ All good things must come to an end though as she finally releases him from her hold in both aspects, her hand falling to rest at the base of his neck and her mouth resting against the corner of his own. ]

Diarmuid.

[croibhristeoir]

Arturia...wh-why?

[It was all he could think to say.]

[ex_cashcow493]

Because that was not a proper kiss. I wished to show you how to do one right.

[croibhristeoir]

...is that really all? I don't wish to separate you from Emiya. Surely you know I do not want to hurt you like that.

[ex_cashcow493]

Do you wish for me to give you an answer in return, Diarmuid? An answer in confusion and spur of the moment will end poorly not only for us, but those dearest to us. Would you rather a lie that I may have to take back or will you grant me the time to sort through my own ... feelings.

[ The word is awkward for her as she glances off to the side, unable to face him as she continues. ]

I shall discuss this with Shirou. I hope you do not mind it, but I can never be dishonest about something of this nature. He has taken risks against those who love him for me, so I must lay out everything for him. [ She must prove to him that his father was right about her in the end. ] After that, I will think long and hard about this night, about the past week, about all of these months we have shared together.

I ask that you do the same. You are not alone in this world and neither am I, yet here we are in a garden exposing our hearts to one another. Love surely is not simple. It is a complex thing that I do not fully understand and I must think it through.

Please forgive me for being so cruel in making you wait even longer.

[croibhristeoir]

No, I...I understand. You're right, of course.

[That was the best way to approach things. To fix them now that he'd ruined everything.]

There is nothing to forgive, as I said before. [Diarmuid paused at that, looking uncertain.]

Arturia, do you--do you hate me for this?

[ex_cashcow493]

Do you think me the type to kiss someone I hate? [ She's almost offended at this, Diarmuid. ] Or need I place my lips upon yours again to remind you of my feelings?

[croibhristeoir]

N--no, I just thought...this has been incredibly reckless and selfish of me to come forward with, and if you were angry I truly would not blame you.

[ex_cashcow493]

Is it not a common thing in literature for someone to kiss another when they are spouting nonsense? Yes, I might have to do so if you keep this up.

[ Who would have thought this kind of threat would be legit? ]

Someone might think me mad for kissing my hand all the time. Tsk, tsk. You would really condemn me to such a path?

[croibhristeoir]

...of course not.

[He smiled at that, and though it was hesitant and awkward it was sincere all the same.]

I wouldn't dare.

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Back to flirting without meaning to or maybe, just maybe, this time she intends to give that impression. ]

Shall we head back inside? Perhaps I ought to take my leave now that I have surely stained this gown with our game.

[croibhristeoir]

If you wish, though if you are going to leave I would at least ask to escort you home.

[ex_cashcow493]

Um.. well, I do not truly wish to return to Gilgamesh's place so soon. [ After all, she's planning to move out this weekend. ] Could we go elsewhere?

[croibhristeoir]

Of course, wherever you would like.

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Glancing off to the side. ]

Your room. [ And with her cheeks flaring up too. They did just kiss and all! ] If it would not be a burden and all.

[ BECAUSE THEY NEED AWKWARD TIMES THERE TOO. ]

[croibhristeoir]

What you ask is never any burden to me, Arturia.

[ex_cashcow493]

So you will allow me to sleep with you?

[ She could have worded that a bit better too. ]

1/2

[croibhristeoir]

[Even if he knew what she meant, he still turned bright red.]

[croibhristeoir]

Of course I will.

[ex_cashcow493]

Is something the matter? Your face is red.

[ Whoosh and all. Being this short makes everything fly over le head a lot easier. ]

[croibhristeoir]

N...no, I'm fine.

[ex_cashcow493]

Then why is your face red?

[ She doesn't understand it. ]

Did I say something embarrassing?
