"Uh... Well, if you insist... All right..."

I'm a little concerned that there is interest in human sacrifice but then I remembered where eldwater comes from and

...? "H-Huh...?" Blink, blink. "Uh... What is it? Did a bird perch on my head while my eyes were closed...?"

Oh- Oh I'm- I'm not supposed to talk about it outside the royal family-

"Mistletoe...? Hey, yeah! That sounds great! Thank you, Luca!" ...... "...W-Wait."

I'm sorry Luca I can't read Sylvan box letters

H. ...... Euden looks around... then leans up on his tiptoes and gives Luca a kiss on the cheek. Then promptly takes the crown off because this is not a good idea! "Th-Thank you... but... In Dragonyule tradition, two people caught under the mistletoe have to kiss... so..."

...Ahem! "S-So, you see, I like it very much, but I... I don't think I can wear this often enough to do it justice. I'm sorry, but thank you for thinking of me." His face is bright red. Poor thing. Imagine having to kiss everyone he meets!

...... "...U-Umm... I mean... Is this your way of... saying that you want to kiss me? Because... I..."

"Umm...?" Yeah... Yeah. Somehow, that seems to make sense. Incredible. All this time, no one has ever been able to woo Euden, and it takes this simple mistake to finally make his heart flutter. "Okay... Yeah. That sounds fair. You can kiss me back."

H. Hhh. HHHHHH. What is... This... Are they...? ...W-Why is Luca taking so long to do it...? He's just looking at him! And... O-Oh... Oh, that's... Umm...

Rebooting Euden.exe please hold

Is Euden rushing into a relationship without thinking about this logically at all and not giving himself any chance to consolidate his feelings? Yes

Euden is an automatic stick shift with two settings, serious leadership and Extreme Dumbassery
