[ imagine if he just dies that'd be funny? Anyway, yeah. It's a letter that I promised you, Spoon. He looks off to the side, kind of avoidant as he sips his tea. ]
Yeah, this is yours. I'd... Recommend reading it when I'm not around.
[ HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TAKE THE EMBARRASSMENT, but to be honest Claude can read it now. ]
[ He's going to set his tea on the table, and that's all the warning Nier is going to get before Claude is taking his face in his hands, thumbs stroking over his cheeks.
And then he leans in to drop a kiss over each of his eyes. A hope that he'll see something better when he closes them in the future. ]
[ That is not enough warning for Nier to also put his cup down, so he stays still as Claude cups his face. It's hard not to like kisses when they're given to you, too.
WHAT IS HAPPENING........... Nier usually says he cares about people with ease, but he's feeling so awkward on the receiving end despite being very happy. He's hanging on, though he wants to die? ]
I never expected you to say that.
[ It's rude without meaning to be. He's shocked? ]
They're all right. [ His leg is all bandaged up. ] I'm sure it'll be a quick heal once we get out of here to get fixed up. You didn't get banged up too bad, did you?

And you?
no subject
[ Very happy on this couch that they're sharing. Don't mind him discreetly placing an envelope on Claude's lap. ]
no subject
But huh, Nier's hand on his lap... It's a letter. ]
This is one of the ones you were writing?
no subject
Yeah, this is yours. I'd... Recommend reading it when I'm not around.
[ HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TAKE THE EMBARRASSMENT, but to be honest Claude can read it now. ]
no subject
[ He opens it up to read it. ]
no subject
[ WHY ]
no subject
Thankfully, Claude only gets two lines in before he folds the paper closed. He might be blushing a little. ]
... I'll read it when I'm alone.
no subject
[ He might also be blushing a bit, but he's pleased that Claude will not make a fool out of both of them. ]
no subject
I didn't know you got embarrassed over being honest.
no subject
[ He also rambled a bit and some more personal stuff, so he's like ugh. ]
no subject
[ He's embarrassed about this, but just desire to tease Nier wins out. ]
no subject
It isn't a love letter.

Because I do love you, Nier.

[ He doesn't take any offense, laughing.
He leans back so that Nier can process. ]
I wanted to tell you before we say goodbye. Even though I know we'll see each other again. But until then.
no subject
How are your wounds, Claude?
[ Putting the cup down now. ]
no subject

no subject
[ He gives Claude a big hug, a little squeeze, and topples him down onto the couch. Actually, maybe that was too much for him. ]
Ow.
no subject
[ Except then Nier pushes him down onto the couch? Hopefully neither of them are holding tea.
Regardless, Claude will put his arms around him gently. ]
You should be more careful if you're so injured.
no subject
Crow healed me, so don’t worry about it. [ He buries his face into Claude’s shoulder. ] Thank you.
no subject
What're you thanking me for?
no subject
For... I don't know. Loving me? Maybe?
no subject
Mm. Well, you make it pretty easy.
no subject
Really... I still think I'm lucky. [ Another squeeze in this hug. ] I'll always remember.
