[The flush - or maybe her reaction to it, or maybe even the words themselves - earn a bright, pleased laugh. A little too short and sharp, but exactly what you've likely come to expect from Zvei.]
A testament to your influence! I didn't think I could feel this way before I met you. And yet here we are.
[There's still the concern of what will happen in the future. Will he continue to feel this radiant? Most of his emotions dull quickly with time, but he hopes this one doesn't. He never wants to feel any other way ever again.]
I'm glad though. That I can return the favor - that I can do so much for you as well, Amaya.
[...Ugh, even his laugh is cute. Amaya finds her gaze averting a bit, and when her stare goes back to him she's...]
...Believe me when I say the feeling is mutual. It is...a feeling I have long denied, due to everything about me. I imagined that no one would want to deal with such a thing, when most days I feel I barely even count as an adjusted human being. If I could not even love myself, how could I love another?
But it's very simple, truly. I...wish I had realized that a long time ago, but finding it here and now with you...it...is so very nice.
[Still, Amaya's gaze goes back to Zvei's lips and she finds herself shy all of a sudden. Of course her boldness would escape like some kind of myth now--]
...Do you...mind if we kiss again? I want to keep enjoying this moment, before everyone else's arrival. I...want to feel that light haziness and simply stay close like that again, if you'll have me.
Now, now, you aren't allowed to say that kind of thing about yourself while I'm around. Why, if anything, your unique feelings are what drew us together in the first place - I'd say that they're exceptionally important and not in a bad way at all. I do wish you could feel what I do in this moment, but knowing that you feel something different from the norm for me makes me very happy.
[It's a soft reprimand, a reminder that she matters to him at the very least, and he won't hear her put herself down like that. She likely feels the same about him as well, which means he'll need to be a bit more careful with how he refers to himself... But it's a worthy price to pay. He understands exactly what she's saying - how could he love someone who barely even exists, let alone understand how to give that love away?
And yet here they are. They'll fumble through this together, just as they have everything else here.]
Of course I don't mind! We can stay right here, just like this.
[And then he (thankfully) shuts up in favor of kissing Amaya again.]
