Just because other people would mock you for being cold doesn't mean I will.
[It's hard not to feel lighter in his steps with someone swinging his hand, although it feels so unlike him that he's almost surprised to find it happening.]
I have, and I want them to be what I most remember of this moment.
[He puts a hand on Azul's face as he takes him in.
It's very sappy, but also Nanami is half expecting to see Azul's eyes with their ocean pupils as a response to the lower light. And he enjoys seeing those as well.]
[Leans into that hand, doing his best to not close his eyes, Nanami will be rewarded with a couple brief flickers of Azul's pupils fighting to return to their natural shape]
Oh? Should I save my other surprises for a different night then?
[He also does a small scan to make sure no one is around. Not sure what to expect from this, but he trusts Azul completely and his guard is almost completely down.]
[Steps back a bit, reaching down to wriggle out of his pants before taking his socks off, dropping each article of clothing onto the sand as it's shed]
[Drops his shawl before heading into the water, back turned to Nanami, pulling his sweater off over his head and flinging it back to shore before disappearing under the waves. Just going to be quietly grateful for the cover that nighttime provides.]
[Most days he takes his time undressing to keep things as neat as possible, but he's just been given very good incentive to strip down faster than usual. So he gets out of his nice clothes, leaving them what he hopes is far enough up shore to stay dry. He heads stark naked into the surf until he's deep enough that his body changes shape and his legs and most of his torso are replaced with whale shark.]
[His body isn't nearly as flexible, so he ends up twisting himself around in a barrel roll trying to follow Azul's movements. The low light in the water makes it harder to see what this Azul looks like.]
[The fact that he's being held literally to that is not lost on him, and he's enjoying the hold even if he has no idea how his own altered biology is going to handle that right now.]

May I see your eyes?

Haven't you seen them before? But yes...you may.

[And then he catches sight of Azul and he's struck again.]
Well look at you. This is a lovely surprise.

[Swims in lazy circles around Nanami, looking him over]
It really does suit you, you know.

Let me get a better look at you...

[He reaches out to touch Azul, feeling slow and sluggish underwater.]

You mean that?

That isn’t exactly something I’m used to hearing like this.

[He leans in to steal a kiss.]
no subject
I am going to hold you to that.

Gorgeous... beautiful...

I take it back, that backfired.

[He isn't in a great position to do anything but go where Azul takes him. But he's happy to go.]
