Ah... I seem to have gotten a handle on this device... I think...
[Ioder peers closely at the SFC in his hand, head tilting slightly to the side thoughtfully. For all his confusion, he looks slightly bemused. His first couple of weeks in Vatheon have been... interesting, to say the least.]
My cousin, Estellise, informed me that I should make an introduction here. My name is Ioder and-- I've never kissed anyone, not in the 18 years I've been alive--
[The bemused expression is gone in a flash, replaced by wide green eyes and hands over his mouth, voice coming out muffled behind them]
O... oh... so this is that curse-- Sometimes when I'm alone, I sing silly songs to myself to pass the time, because days in the palace were just that lonely--
[His hands clench tighter, eyes closing. Eventually he manages enough composure to reach forward...]
Perhaps I should do this another time...
[and turn the device off before it gets any worse]

Say! You really are a cute kid! Am I making you speechless? Nnn!
[So gleeful.]
Why are you blushing?
Video
[is that irritation in Ioder's voice?]
Video
[He looks so...Confused at Ioder's question. Almost genuinely surprised]
Video
Nevermind.
[followed by a more curious look, along with a little pink coming back to his cheeks]
... were you serious? Earlier, I mean.
Video
[...Is that another blush? Izaya doesn't comment but really, Ioder, stop being cute.]
Video
That if I really wanted to kiss some one, I could kiss you.
[At least he doesn't stumble over his words this time. It's not like he can avoid the question now that it's out there. The curse would see to that.]
Re: Video
Eh? You'd really want to kiss me?
[Seriouslybro]
...Well sure. I don't see why not. I didn't know that I was your type!
[Aheh. He's flattered.]
Re: Video
Amazingly he doesn't outwardly sputter but his face certainly gets red.]
I'd have to say you're not really, no. But the one I do care for is not only not here, but probably would turn tail and run if I ever admitted my feelings for him just because I'm the Emperor.
[Oh damn it all.]
Oh damn it all...
Video
[But then he looks at the camera a bit more intently at that little revelation.]
...I see. Well. Admitting your feelings can make a situation unnecessarily difficult.
[......He's just going to speak very quietly now. You can barely hear him.]
It's really just best to hold it down.
After all! [And normal again] There are few things more rewarding than being in control of yourself, nn? Although if you love him...
[He can't believe he's about to say this but.]
Then maybe you should respect that idea of him in your mind...and not just kiss anyone. You might regret it if you do. I wonder a lot why people don't like me.
Video
[Why you give him conflicting messages, Izaya.]
Perhaps it's because you're so confusing?
[Hello honesty that's not being driven by the curse.]
So I'm to either keep an idea alive that may or may not happen, of some one I may or may not see again, that would more than likely blanch at the thought of ever being with me - and that's only if I ever got the courage to tell him the truth.
Or, allow myself to give in to silly urges and do something I may or may not regret later on?
Is that roughly what you're trying to tell me, Mister Izaya?
Video
Yeah but that's no reason to dislike me....
[Not that that confession had been true of course.]
Um yup! Guess so. It really depends on what you want to do. Although I understand the situation more than you give me credit for.
How-ever. If you ever want that kiss or anything, I'd be happy to kiss you, even if you don't like me because I'm confusing. Regrets, for most people, are impossible to avoid anyway. You might as well make the choice you think suits you best. So what is it gonna be?
Video
[he goes quiet here, obviously mulling it over]
... I would be lying if I said I wasn't at least a little curious and intrigued by the thought.
Video
Would you like to come over for some tea?
Video
Video
[No, he doesn't say when. He just sort of clicks off.
OOC: Would you like to slide into action from here or start a log? If you're interested in playing that out of course.]
Video
[well this has certainly been an... interesting day.
And it's not over yet.
ooc: I am okay with playing it out, and a log would be fine. ^^]
