A confused glance was given back to the male. No, not quite. Well maybe. Setsumi tilted her head to his snort. "That's nice to hear." She supposed she was just one to hear things, when doubts wanted to seep in her thoughts. With a timid smirk, she lifted to give him another peck on the edge of the maw. It was a relaxing motion, one she shouldn't feel ashamed or restricted from doing. But that was all. She wouldn't tug on Darkfeather like some string without his consent.

The peck caused DF to go from indignant, to giving a slight smile. A paw was put over Setsumi's back again and he ventured a light nuzzle, even a small lick to the bottom of her chin. He wasn't all that use to showing affection... atleast not to anyone other than his trainer from his previous life... but well... he could get use to it.

Heh, to see this side of Darkfeather. It was pleasing, to know that he'd allow her to see it. The lick made her flush, and she buried her face in his ruff, her own paws kneading the back of his neck. "Darkfeather..." Her mood swings weren't helping much, and this comfort after such long absense was...nice. To say the least.

Closing his eyes due to the kneading on the back of his neck, Darkfeather turned an ear when Setsumi said his name. "Hm?" he answered back, opening his eyes again to look down at her. Giving her another lick along the feathers atop her head.

All she could manage was a sigh, having no answer to his response. Her paws kept moving, almost nervously now as to her logic. But all signs pointed clearly, right? Or was she just having wishful thinking? The femme pulled back slightly, enough to glance back at his own eyes. His expression, as most times, was unreadable. Without pausing to think, she pressed her own maw to his. Not to the side this time, and lingering with purpose.

He had never been kissed... ever.. atleast not like this. Considering he had been a bird in his past life.. he didn't really have the capability with a beak. Thus, when Setsumi kissed him.. there was a great pause, as if he was uncertain what to do, which he was. However, he overcame his initial shock and well... kissed her back, as good as he was able to anyway. He wasn't going to be a stellar kisser right off the bat.

His pause brought her own uncertainties crashing back to her. If not for his delayed efforts, she would have pulled back flustering and mumbling quick apologies. But he had responded, had kissed back. Her own ability, who knew how good it was. But perfection wasn't a concern to her. She was just numb now, enjoying the moment. She found it oddly funny, how the air seemed more chilly. Or maybe it was just her increased heartbeat? She didn't care, just moving closer against the other kitsu to savor the warmth. She chuckled lightly, pulling an inch away. "Well, this was a nice vacation."

Well then... it was a good thing he hesitated, and he certainly didn't feel any regrets for their actions. He wanted to feel close to somebody... and well.. this was his chance. Perhaps his only chance, really. He wasn't going to allow this opportunity to pass him by. He might be gruff... but he has feelings too. When Setsumi pulled back, Darkfeather smirked, "I agree. Are you glad you came?"

Look at him smirking there. Setsumi gave her own smirk, flicking idly at his crest feathers while her other arm stayed at his neck. "It was worth it...in the end." But she didn't want to speak about it. It was too tiring to remember. "I'm glad you came." Who else would she have to spend time with, after all was said and done? With Darkfeather, she was allowed to vent in a way that wasn't distressful. And so had he...

He nodded, glad to hear that it had been worth it... in the end anyway. "So am I" he concluded, for if he hadn't... well.. he would have gone back to his own miserable existence in the middle of nowhere. With her pressing against him, his wing came over Setsumi once more. That should help keep her warm. But what was to become of them now? It didn't matter. Darkfeather contented himself with grooming the feathers on her head.

Green eyes shaded over as the wing covered overhead. A natural tent in the night. Setsumi smirked at that random visual. His honest opinion made her feel all the more content. She was certain now that he'd enjoy realm. She'd be there to comfort him as much as he'd protect her. "I...like the sound of that." But she'd leave that definition vague, not wanting to startle the male away. She was enjoying this grooming.

Startle him? Bah.. he wasn't -that- sensitive.. c'mon. Instead, he was amused, "Oh? And how so do you mean?" he was curious, pausing only in his grooming to speak those words before going at it again. This was his way to show his affection, and it seemed like she was enjoying it... which certainly pleased him.

How would she mean it? "Hmm, just knowing you're there." Was that good enough? Her ears had slid back to allow the grooming to continue. Too bad she couldn't return the treatment, she wasn't as professional of grooming such plumage. Her paws seeked out his own, resting lightly on them. "I just....enjoy your presence. Almost too much..."

"Hmm... almost too much?" he smirked again and nibbled behind Setsumi's ears. "Well I have to admit.. I enjoy your presence as well." There was no lying about that matter... he wouldn't be here if he didn't enjoy her presence. With her head on his paws, Darkfeather finished his grooming of her and laid his head over her neck. He was silent for several moments... before he suddenly and quietly asked a question he'd been wondering about. "Would you ever take another mate?"

The ear moved at the nibble, unused to being chewed on. She kept her silence as he spoke. She had guessed that much, when he decided to start speaking to her. Even having the guts to nuzzle her neck that time. It became quiet, and she was almost tempted to take another nap. His voice had just barely reached her, and she paused before replying. "I would like to, eventually..." She had to admit, it was depressing to be alone. Beforehand, she had pretended, hoping that maybe things could be fixed. Now she just had to accept it.
