[ baein can see that the fae doesn't understand, and he immediately feels bad for reacting like that. once they're inside the changing room, he turns to daeshim, a little sheepish and apologetic. ]
I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to react like that. I want you to know I'm not mad about it and I wouldn't have cared if it was just us. I just... some people can be very misunderstanding, and I didn't want anyone else in the store to give you any grief for it.
[ technically, he's used to daeshim in various states of undress... this one, but also the werewolf daeshim back home. still... it shouldn't have mattered now either. ]
[there's still many things that daeshim doesn't understand. and it's not that he doesn't want to understand - he still tries. but he's also learned to accept that sometimes he just won't understand something.
so when bae starts to ramble, apologize even, he listens for a moment before lifting both hands to cup the vampire's face. he stares into his eyes for a moment before speaking.]
You are very sweet. Thank you for looking out for me.
[it's a genuine question, but what right would daeshim have to call something "strange" in teh first place? bae is always free to talk about anything he wants with him.]
I do!
[there's excitement in his voice as he resumes his stripping. that part is easy, but the clothes may prove a little more delicate and complicated than he was expecting.]
Mmm...it's hard to tell the front from the back...
[ maybe it's not strange after all, but still. he keeps his eyes on daeshim's face once the fae is undressed, mostly out of propriety than anything, though at this point he is sort of used to it. ]
They do look a little complicated. Would you let me help?
[ he's holding his hands out, though waiting for daeshim's approval. he's only a little red. ]
[daeshim doesn't respond in words. he just turns around to face him while holding the "outfit" (is there enough to it for it to even be called that??) out to him.
[ blinking, the prince accepts the outfit, turning it this way and that, but he has to give daeshim a confused, almost flustered look at the statement, and then he ducks his head to avoid the look when daeshim smiles like that. ]
I've never really... um. Handled anything like this before. I don't think I would know how well... but I'll try.
[ he breathes it out, the realization, and the fact that daeshim is probably right. but it's in many different ways like this. then he turns a small smile at the fae. ]
You're very precious to me, no matter where you are, or what... you, you are. Though, I can't say I've ever, um... done something like this with you before.
[ swallowing, he almost sways when daeshim's hand curl around his hips, and he tilts his head slightly to press a hesitant kiss to the fae's hair. this isn't something he's ever done for his daeshim, no matter how many times he wanted to. but here... it's been easier, to somehow unabashedly showering his affections on the other without having to think of anyone watching, perhaps judging. putting them in danger. ]
Y-yeah...?
[ baein could've sworn his heart stutters in his chest at the fae's words, and baein breathes out. ]
I don't care who you are, or what you are. If there are a thousand Baeins, there is room in my heart for all of you. I won't leave a one out.
[daeshim will do what the other dae hesitates to do, even if he knows he wants to. somehow, he knows it.
he lifts his head again, looks into the vampire's eyes and sees the truth of his words. it makes him smile, smile and tiptoe just enough that he's able to kiss him on the lips.]
[ baein wants to kiss him, it's the only thing on his mind for a second as his heard seems to swell in his chest from it's crinkled, dried up husk. daeshim's words, and the way he looks at baein, is a little overwhelming, but baein can't look away.
so he draws breath (he is amazed every time he does even if he doesn't need to. he'll never get used to that feeling), and then breathes it out, shoulders sagging slightly. and he meets daeshim's smile readily, can't help that either, and doesn't try to. and then daeshim does kiss him, and baein melts into it for a moment, enough that when the fae pulls away with a happy exclamation, baein blinks for a second before he manages to flush pink. ]
O-oh. All right.
[ it dawns on him that he'll have to undress and maybe he feels a little sheepish, self conscious, but he moves to tug at the shirt he's wearing first. ]
[daeshim could definitely wait for him to kiss him again..and again, though they might never leave the changing room at all if they started. baein might be cold to the touch, but the feeling that the vampire gives him when he smiles that way is nothing but warmth. he's sure it's true for everyone who meets him, even if bae sadly can't feel it towards himself. yet.
the fae doesn't rush to help him, but he's definitely there if needed, and also to help him figure out the barely-there garments that they've chosen. daeshim giggles once it's on, and slaps his hands against his cheeks.]
If only Jasper could see you!
[his eyes sparkle, and the pink color creeps out from underneath his fingers.]
He would take you into his arms right in this very room, I know it!
[ the way the lingerie feels on his skin is so different and new and the prince almost wants to squirm under daeshim's eyes, unsure where to place his own on the fae. he feels shy, almost but the fact that they're both dressed in similar clothes makes it a little easier, to not want to hide in a corner somewhere because he can feel the flush under his skin.
and the way the fae is almost sparkling at him as he looks at him... ]
J-Jasper...?
[ the idea has baein duck his head and he's definitely flustered even if it's not entirely visually represented. ]
[even daeshim feels pretty in the lingerie, delicate and lacy. but it's something completely different on bae. bae's the one who makes it looks pretty.]
[ baein almost covers his face with his hands, but instead he lowers them and fidgets nervously. somehow, he wasn't too embarrassed about the idea itself, but now when wearing it, and being showered in compliments like this... ]
[ whatever is left of blood in his body rushes to baein's cheeks and he blinks with wide eyes at dae, mouth opening and closing around a stutter that goes a little strangled once daeshim hugs him.

Oh. I... of course I would. You mean so much to me, it is natural.
[ he still looks a little sheepish though, and he reaches up to cover daeshim's hands with his own. ]
Sorry, I started rambling about strange things, right?
[ he smiles a little at the other, fond beyond anything. ]
Do you want to try out clothes now?

[that's what daeshim means. and for some reason he's shyer about that about being naked in front of him.]
You make me feel very cared for, in a way that only you can.

I would make you feel cared for too, in any way that you wanted.

[he responds after thinking about it for a moment. but he still looks at baein to see what he thinks about it too.]
As beautiful as you are, I don't think just anyone deserves to see you like this.
[the fae presses against him, hugging him, almost covering his body with his own.]
no subject
baein hugs back, unable to resist (he doesn't want to). ]
I... I don't want just anyone to see you either, like this.
