Slimy... That sounded kinda icky, if she had to be honest. But she didn't hold it against him, that wasn't his fault in the least! It was that vile princess... Thank goodness she wasn't anywhere to be seen, or she'd have some very very harsh words for her. But no matter, he seemed to be okay with the kiss, so—
"Alrighty~!"
With that said, she stopped hugging him and instead brought him to eye level with her. He looked really adorable like that... But maybe, just maybe the "magic" would work?
"It's my first kiss, you know. I won't do the blushing and prude act I did that one time in the game..." She tilted her head. "But that's still a bit embarrassing, ahaha. So you better close your eyes!"
on Kengo's side he was just immensely relieved the princess had left since the last thing he wanted was for Monika to go insane in the real world too. He'd rather she be happy and if he could help make that happen then al the better.
His single eye looked at her and somehow managed to appear sheepish since she was so close to his ...body? Face? It was hard to make that distinction with his new body.
"I wish I didn't have to but sure I will." Kengo gave a nod and sure enough closed his eyes for Monika waiting for the feel of her lips to fall on him or his."
There was no way she'd go insane...! Probably. She was no longer alone, she was no longer trapped in a tiny world, she was no longer suffering that nightmarish void whenever the game was turned off. Sure she could get super jealous, but murderous jealous? That was all behind her, there was nothing to mentally destabilize and break her now.
So she smiled and brought him closer and closer to her lips... Before finally placing a gentle and sweet kiss on him. Was that his mouth? She wasn't sure. It didn't really feel like a real kiss since he, well. Couldn't kiss her back. But it was still a first, wasn't it?
After a brief moment she pulled back, smiling sweetly and deviously. Had her charming prince turned back to his real form? If not, that was okay. She'd love him just the way he was!
Better safe than sorry. Kengo knew she'd been through enough so she deserved the happiness that was now so close within reach. Though sadly her hopes of his transformation being undone with a kiss were cruelly shattered by reality. So when she opened her eyes again she would see a very apologetic single eyes stare up at her.
"Guess this is one curse that's not so easy to break huh. I'm sorry, Monika..."
It was a bit disappointing, but how could she ever blame him for the result? He hadn't done anything wrong! She smiled at him and immediately shook her head.
"Why are you sorry? That vile and cruel princess is the one who ought to apologize!"
And she proceeded by hugging him once more.
"I don't love you any less just because you look this way, you know?"
Oh geez he hoped for that princess' sake she completely forgot about him and never came back or else he'd have to use all his new limbs to restrain Monika. Which was an aluring proposition to his new beast body and mind but one he did not want to linger on for too long.
"I just wish I could give you the welcome you deserve after finally making it out. Though I guess I can start with cooking something up real quick. Having as many arms as you want really helps with efficiency in the kitchen you know." Among other things. He just wanted to point out the benefits of this form so that they could move off of the topic of his curse.
Would that be enough to even restrain her...? Monika was ressourceful! And excessively defensive of the ones she loves. More so when said person is her boyfriend. Because he's her boyfriend, even though they may not have spoken the words per se.
"Awww." She looked at him and shook her head. "You did give me an amazing welcome."
She held him close against him once more. Right, best not to talk about his curse any more. He was adorable regardless of the form and she couldn't ask for more! He'd showered her with love, wasn't that enough?
"I'm a terrible cook, so that's a positive ahaha! But remember though I'm a vegetarian, so you gotta avoid meat in my meals~"
She may be resourceful but he could grow enough tentacles to cover the entire room from wall to floor to ceiling in the stuff. His body really defied all laws of mass and physics now. One of hte many benefits of this accident and now that he had someone who loved him unconditionally, that removed another big misgiving.
"I remember. Stir fry sound good or should I just whip up a queen sized salad instead~"
She wasn't even mentioning his limbs any more. Nope, she didn't want him to feel bad about it for even a moment! Of course, she'd make research on ways to cure him- If she could cross into the real world, surely he could be cured! But that wasn't because she didn't accept him as he was. It was more out of concern for his safety.
"On my hand, I can probably handle cleaning up things around... Gosh, people are going to wonder where I came from, huh? I probably should get started on making a fake ID, ahaha!"
" I mean that's fine I was just trying to figure out what you wanted right now. After all you just showed up in the real world." HE wanted to make her something special after all. As for breaking the curse he really hoped she wouldn't do anything extreme to make that happen. Yeah it was scary at first but by now he had gotten kind of used to it. There was clear benefits after all.
"Oh god you're right. I don't have any kind of connections that could help with that either." that was troubling since getting fake documents would involve interacting with elements of the underworld and frankly he would rather not see Monika do that. Not because he didn't trust he but because he wanted to keep her safe from the uglier aspects of reality.
Lo, his worst fears are immediately materialized. As if a few Yakuza scared her! Well, she wouldn't have to go that far. But she was pretty good at hacking and in modern times, that was an invaluable skill, right?
"I can probably hack into governmental database and set something up for myself. If not, I'll just get in touch with people who can forge IDs and buy their services with my hacking skills."
It's unclear whether she's naive or determined. Probably a mixture of both.
Common sense is not so common when you were a scripted character in a meta commentary visual novel it seemed. Kengo immediately tensed up.
"H-Hacking skills? Are you sure? what if you get caught!" After all hacking into government databases is different from hacking an indie game. At least that's what he thought if one were to think logically.
I'm so sorry for the delay, it's been a busy week
"Alrighty~!"
With that said, she stopped hugging him and instead brought him to eye level with her. He looked really adorable like that... But maybe, just maybe the "magic" would work?
"It's my first kiss, you know. I won't do the blushing and prude act I did that one time in the game..." She tilted her head. "But that's still a bit embarrassing, ahaha. So you better close your eyes!"
No worries. I know RL comes first.
