What do you think about all that? I mean. Do you think it's bad we "rushed" into things? I don't think so. I guess I just don't like the idea of people seeing us like that or anything.
[ Kaneki was going to ask if Dirk was (over)thinking about something in particular, but then he asks that.
Ah.]
We did get married the first time we met. [ Kaneki is joking. But it's mostly because it doesn't worry him if they are going too fast.
He leaves his link open as usual, to allow Dirk to feel the words he is about to type.]
I don't think I care about how people see us, because they are not us. They don't know us that way.
They don't know how lonely we have been, our struggles, and they don't know how good this is has been for both of us. I have never been this happy before, so why wouldn't we want more when it feels right?
(Okay, that actually gets a laugh outta Dirk. It's enough of a surprise that it flickers through their link.
It didn't worry him either. He liked to move fast. He just wanted to make sure Kaneki wasn't hung up on that sort of thing either.)
In my defense, you shoulda seen yourself in that dress. I still fantasize about it. I was smitten at first sight.
(Maybe even love at first sight, but hey.
For once, he leaves the link open on his end too. Ever since Kaneki found out about his abilities, Dirk has been more open to leaving the link open from his end.)
Damn, Ken. Might as well call you the King of Being Right.
I've never been this happy before either. Or this secure with a relationship. Not that I have much to compare to, but I'm pretty confident when I say that what we have feels special.
That's what I thought too. I don't know why we should have waited if we knew how we felt.
I still have it, you know? [ the dress. BUT! That's a conversation for later, maybe.
Kaneki can't help but to love that Dirk has become more open. He never minded his boyfriend keeping his privacy before, but now it all feels so warm, all the time]
It is special. And it's ours. No one else's, so it doesn't matter what they might think or say.
Don't worry about the pace. It doesn't matter as long we are happy.
But if he does...I'd be a homewrecker for you. I wouldn't put it past any person who is into dudes to wanna fuck up the world for a cutie like you.
(Now he really is being obnoxious.)
I'm already looking into some horses. I want you to come to help me pick out the first two. If you want.
Me too.
(Stop he's actually having such a DOKI DOKI moment right now. He's blushing a bit because Kaneki really just said he wanted the whole shebang of eventual marriage and shit and, listen!!! He's...Radiating some intense warmth that Kaneki can no doubt feel.)
Can I come? I would like to. I've never seen a horse, I would like to touch one first. [ before arriving to the ranch and they are everywhere.
And Kaneki can indeed feel it and his own cheeks are red and the connection just allows for it all to be felt. Marriage is not something he'd imagine two guys doing it but Dirk mentioned it and they should. Eventually. They should get married, yes. Make their bonds even more special.
But ultimately Kaneki just wants to spend his life with Dirk now, that is all he wants. Married or not, he just wants to be close to him and be happy with him]
(Have the closest thing to a visual push of a dozen flowers!!! He may not be able to say that he was in love with Kaneki just yet, but he certainly can make those feelings evident in other ways. Shy though he may be, he did not want Kaneki to ever doubt his feelings or how deep they ran.)
I've never seen or touched a real one before either. Maybe we can meet some, pet them a bit, maybe try and ride them?
(That would actually be a nice date. And one that didn't have to revolve around food. He wanted more dates where Kaneki didn't have to feel awkward. Not that it was really a problem anymore since he knew the truth about his boyfriend's dietary requirements now, but still.
Dirk felt the same way. A lifelong relationship was all he really wanted. Someone he knew was there for him, heart and soul and everything in between.)
[ they are two boys in love who won't say it but certainly feel it. There is no other way to describe it but love and it's the kind that runs deep and raw and makes Kaneki's stomach squeeze with happiness and the mental link is always full of that too.
From the moment Kaneki wakes up, Dirk is on his mind.
And the mention of the date makes him smile wider. Kaneki loves to go on dates, he is a huge romantic. That's why he was excited for Camp Camelot too, in his head it was another form of a date.
Or something new to try with Dirk]
I would like to do that. I want to learn how to ride them. And take care of them.
[ even if they aren't technically Kaneki's, he will take upon himself to take care of the horses too. After all, at some point they will live together and eventually the horses will be his too, although he doesn't say that in words]
I want to do the same. We will have the best damn ranch this side of the multiverse.
(He's...so filled with warmth right now over the fact that Kaneki was invested in the dream too. It didn't seem like a big deal but it was part of the whole...Wanting to have a life together.
And damn, he really does need to think of more dates, huh.)

Babe, you really are the brains behind this whole operation. Ya got me. I'm fuckin' humbled by your emotional insight.
(He might sound like he's joking, but damn if it's not true.)
I like the pace we have been going. I dunno how I would have tolerated not having you.
no subject
But Kaneki smiles at those words]
I don't know about that. I only know that I'm happy. You make me happy.
no subject
No he's right. They really do fuck like animals.)
Babe, wedding honeymoons are celebrated with lingerie and shit. I should get some and lay out on a bed of petals and then you can take me finally.
It'll be sooo romantic.
You make me happy too, Ken. Also, I apologized to Kyle. Sincerely. Well, not at first, but eventually.
no subject
After all, Kaneki is still a virgin that way, right? He wants to have all his first times with Dirk]
I do think it would be very romantic. Honeymoon or not, I would like to.
And thank you. I'm glad you did. I hope it went well.
no subject
It did. We are bonding.
I'm glad he's your best friend here. He's cool. But if he makes any moves on you I'm killing him.
(He actually does not think Kyle would ever do that to anyone in a relationship but especially not to Ken or Dirk. But yanno.)
We'll plan that then. Have a honeymoon. Date for a while. Then actually get married and have a real wedding then have a real honeymoon.
no subject
And adopt some animals too. Be together. Live happily ever after.
I want that.

Then we got our first goal down pat.
no subject
Because it's their life together]
We do. Together.[ Kaneki has learned to like that word a lot]
