[No one hopes more than Legosi that his body will have no more shocking changes to go through in the forseeable future. A lot of that was his own doing, at least, so maybe anything else can be attributed to just being a healthy young adult. Hopefully.
The way the yukata match is enough to really tug at Legosi's heart strings. He doesn't even notice the way he draws the fabric close to himself, holding it against his chest for a moment like he'll be able to calm the heavy beating of his heart, far too full of love for this little rabbit he's lucky enough to call his.]
I really appreciate that. It's been...a long while since I have really done much for my birthday, to be honest.
[He was never allowed to forget of course, not with Jack around, but he preferred to keep things lowkey, especially in regards to himself. When he was a pup things were different, especially with how doting his grandfather could be. Not that he minded it at all, back then.
Once they're sure the yukata will suffice, he folds his own over his forearm and holds a hand down for Haru to take. She might notice his tail is wagging enough to cast a small breeze her way.]
I'm already having fun, and we haven't even done anything yet.
Really? Well, I'll make a better habit of doing something special for your birthday every year going forward.
[said in that characteristically spirited Haru fashion. because theirs is a relationship of mutual giving and receiving, and any opportunity to give to Legosi is one she'll take.
there's no missing the way Legosi's tail kicks up a slight breeze; even if she didn't see it swaying two and fro behind him, it's a sensation she's becoming well acquainted with the longer and more often she spends time with him.]
I'm having fun too.
[after adjusting the yukata over one arm, she takes his offered hand. always noting, quietly at the back of her mind, how much his hand overwhelms hers in sheer size, though like everything about their relationship they've found ways to make it work. smiling up at him, she takes the lead, sliding their door open and leading him one way--
only to turn them around the opposite direction because she realizes she's leading them the wrong way. woops.]
They serve dinner here pretty early, so we can eat in tonight or see what's around in town.
[said conversationally, walking side by side with him.
and, coming to pause at the entrance to the communal showers-- much like the onsen, it's co-ed. peeking in before entering, Haru seems to brighten.]
[HARU...Legosi just smiles when Haru almost takes them the wrong way, the sort of barely-there quirk to his lips he gets that only people who really know him would probably notice. He's content to let her lead him along even if they did get lost, which is probably unwise but hey, what is a vacation for if not to just let yourself experience all the ups and downs that come with it?
He peers in shortly after Haru does, following her with shuffling feet as he tries to not let it show how relieved he is that it is empty. Not that he would be against others already being here, he just...would prefer to be with Haru alone.]
[LOOK she's just very excited about spending a weekend with her boyfriend ok!! so what if she gets a bit mixed up direction-wise. and, in contrast to Legosi's usual shuffling gait (reminiscent of an old man and...having finally met the grandfather who raised him, she kind of Gets this wolf's habits a bit better) Haru walks with her usual confident swagger. helped in knowing they'll have the showers and baths all to themselves for a bit.]
You're right...we'll have to take full advantage of our privacy. [said as she makes her way towards the cubbies near the seated shower area after sliding off her slippers and hanging up her yukata. she starts to strip down, still talking conversationally.] It'll take some getting used to, with the bathrooms and bathing area being co-ed. [and, starting up her shower, she runs her hand under the water to test it.]
Ah! At least the water heats up fast! Must be because the owners are reptiles. The showers in my university apartments always take forever to heat up.
[look she's just...happy to have Legosi around all to herself. it's why she's talking so much.]
[As if he'd ever mind. He'd never talk again if it meant even more time to listen to Haru, no matter what it is she's talking about. It might be obvious that he's moving slowly, not just out of habit, but also because he's tracking her movements and following what she's doing more or less. It's not like he's never used a shower or an onsen besides, but since it's co-ed he want to make sure he doesn't accidentally do something he shouldn't.
The fact this particular place is run by reptiles is a boon for Legosi. It makes everything seem more familiar, considering his close familial ties with them. He remembers quite well how things functioned similarly for his grandfather, and how the temperature in their home had to be constantly regulated to very specific degrees to keep things comfortable. Being fur-coated, Legosi tended to be able to put up with basically anything...it's easier to just cut your fur short or wear thick clothing if needed when you're warm blooded.
Legosi starts to strip as well once he's hung his yukata up nearby, reaching his hand out to feel the water along with her.]
That's how it always was at home...I was spoiled in that regard until I started living in school dorms.
[Ah, it's only just now hitting him how strange this feels. Not in a bad way, it's just...different. But if he didn't like the difference, he wouldn't be with Haru to begin with. So when he finds himself thoughtlessly reaching a hand out- as if he's going to help her put her own clothes into the cubbies- he pulls back and jams his into one of the ones in front of his nose, realizes it's not going to fit unless he folds it better, and pulls it back out to do that...]
I guess even for a prolific school like Cherryton, they save money on hot water for us warm blooded animals.
[she pays little mind to Legosi's fussing, turning away the moment Legosi tries making a move to help her put her clothes away, completely missing the gesture as she removes her bra and underwear.
and, with her back to him, hot water running and creating a cloud of steam in their general vicinity, she pauses for a moment as she sets the rest of her garments aside in her cubby. communal bathing is completely normal, of course; but there's something different in knowing that for now it's just the two of them. rinsing off before sharing a nice soak in a hot, natural spring water bath.
spending time with Legosi for long periods of time is rare enough, but she finds that it makes the mundane much more special.
grabbing the detachable showerhead by its cord, she lifts it up and over its hook (since it's too high up for her to reach otherwise and she's not about to ask Legosi to help), and as it swings up and off--
it sprays full force directly at Legosi, Haru scrambling with it to keep from spraying him further.]
Woops [said while still holding the showerhead, facedown towards her feet proper, water circling the drain.] I didn't get your clothes wet did I?
[It's a good thing that Legosi had reverted from moving slow and methodically to almost too quickly taking his clothes off once he realized he was lagging behind Haru, because it's about just as he's gotten his own clothes folded and put away that he's blasted by the shower-head. You'd think that it would have just hit his legs or chest with how short Haru is, but since it sort of just...swung from where it was to begin with, basically no part of him is safe. He holds up his hands in front of his face to shield himself from the tail end of the blast by the time Haru manages to get it back under control, leaving him standing there looking like...well. A wet dog.]
No...
[That does prompt him to lean in close to her though, close enough that his nose is mere inches from Haru's, water dripping fom his fur. Surely he's not...actually mad, right? It was just an accident...right...?
...
Aftr a long pause, Legosi shakes himself vigorously. It's part canine reflex, but mostly it's an attempt to break the awkward tension that keeps building solely due to him being weird. Now they're both wet, you're welcome. He just hopes Haru finds it humorous; his tail is wagging again despite being just as soaked as the rest of him is, so there's that.]
[a-ah. she's visibly flustered when he leans down at her level, heart suddenly beating a mile a minute. for as expressive as canines are, in moments like these his komodo dragon genes seem to take over; large eyes calm and expressionless staring into hers, difficult to read.
he...he can't be mad, right? well, if he is she'll just offer to dry his clothes. and even with the sound of running water of the showerhead she's now awkwardly holding in her hands filling the silence, Haru can't help but feel awash with--]
H-hey!
[said the moment he starts shaking himself off, getting her wet and smelling like a large canine herself. it certainly breaks the tension, and she laughs, one hand reaching forward to grab him by the side of his face, pointedly keeping him close and down to her level as she brings the showerhead up to wash the top of his head. the wagging of his tail does not go unnoticed; it kicks up a slight breeze even through the steam of a hot shower.]
Now I'm going to stink like wet dog!
[said while scrubbing her hand through his fur, rinsing him down the best to her short-of-stature ability, and taking care not to get water in his eyes or ears (or...ear and a half) as she maneuvers the water around. clearly intent on rinsing him down herself, as further punishment for being a giant weirdo.]
We're going to have to wash allll that away before we can enjoy our bath.
[you're now at the mercy of being hosed down by your girlfriend. or not, it's not like she's physically strong enough to actually keep him in place.
besides, she'll be expecting him to rinse her down too once his turn's over.]
[He sounds apologetic, but only just. You're the one who blasted him in the face, Haru! Even if he knows it wasn't at all on purpose. It seems that this was worth it anyway for the way she's rubbing his head like that, causing him to tilt his head back to lean into every scratch and brush of her fingers without even fully realizing it.
Luckily, even if he could just stand up to avoid this treatment, he's not going anywhere any time soon.]
Be glad we haven't met much while it is raining. It can get far worse.
[And she has experienced that at least once...it is an experience.]
[look, she takes every opportunity she can to keep him close and make herself close to him, and as he tilts his head this way and that, leaning into the press of her fingers as she scrubs him down, Haru can't help the small smile that forms on her face.
it was a complete accident, blasting him with hot water like that (she didn't want to ask for help, she's perfectly capable of getting things down from places high up, ok!) but the outcome is definitely favourable.
she progresses from her head down to his neck, then his back, moving around him.
it's like...watering a large tree in the garden.]
At least a hot bath will have you smelling nice. If we wind up getting caught in a rainstorm though...I might have to get my own separate room.
[because boy, has she experienced that at least one. she's packed some special large-canine brand deodorant too...just in case, okay.
it's a habit, picking up inexpensive but useful things for her boyfriend when she shops for her own stuff. in attempts to feel closer to him when he's not around.
taking a step back, she keeps the water on him for a moment or two longer before lowering the showerhead to spray down at his feet. it's just a rinse off, after all. she holds it out for him to take, other hand on her hip.]
[He can't say he'd blame her for that one. Canines in particular...things can get pretty bad, especially in the summer. There's a reason that the yearly shaving of winter coats is as much of a necessity as it is a ritual, otherwise the dog smell would be simply unbearable.
But now it's his turn. He'd started to zone out a little with Haru's fingers threading through his fur, and he only just snaps out of it as she pulls the showerhead away and hands it over to him. He takes it carefully so as to avoid another potential accident with it, remaining where he is crouched low to the floor. He gives a little thoughtful hum, maybe a delayed response to what she'd said a moment ago, before he starts by holding the showerhead at an angle just at the back of her head so he can work his way down.
Haru will find her head cradled in one of his massive paws before too long, taking special care to make sure he doesn't accidentally nick her with his claws. It's a bit difficult to keep the contact to just the pads of his fingers (toebeans? fingerbeans???) but he manages.]
[were he to accidentally scratch her with his claws, she wouldn't mind it. theirs is a relationship of walking a tightrope, and for her it's one between feeling comfort at his hands but also the dull but ever present spike of adrenaline whenever his claws move close to her face and neck.
in response to his delicate touch, cradling her head in one paw so large he could crush her if he wanted, water rhythmically falling across her fur in a pleasant and mindful manner, she closes her eyes happily (and in a way that conveys utmost trust), and her hand comes up to rest against his. she leans into his touch, knowing full well the way he's holding her is intentionally light and careful.
she's not careful. and, humming slightly, she smiles, opening her eyes to look at him once the water moves down and away from the top of her head.]
Mmhmm, it's just right. [it's less hot than the water she had sprayed him with, thanks to the time spent running, but it works in her favour. rabbit skin and fur is a lot more sensitive and thin compared to a wolf.] I wonder how warm the baths are going to be.
[and in her usual, playful-yet-morbid way.]
Hopefully hot enough, but not where it'll turn me to rabbit soup.
[Haru's always lived a life as if each day might be her last, a fact that isn't far off from reality. Legosi is much less used to living life on the edge, at least up until recently...he'd thrown himself into so many near-death situations that he honestly should be dead, yet here he is able to enjoy an onsen with his bunny girlfriend.
It's strange how things work out.
She's joking about becoming a stew while Legosi is wishing that didn't put an immediate picture of the very same in his mind's eye. It's gotten better with his bouts of weird training to suppress his desire to eat meat, but it's...different, with Haru. Never mind the fact that instincts aren't something you can fully, permanently erase. To do that would be to change who he is fundamentally, and that isn't something Legosi wants either. He wants a middle ground where he can still be himself while not being at a constant threat of someday eating his girlfriend.
He plans to have that never come to pass, and it starts with moments like these. Moments where he allows himself to smile slightly at her quip as opposed to thinking about it too seriously, letting the thought linger and pass as normally as anything else as he shifts the water around her to make sure she's doused properly.]
[It's a sign of just how far they've come, in terms of understanding each other and overcoming not only physical, but mental hurdles in their relationship, in how lightly Haru talks of morbid topics and how Legosi reacts in an understanding, non-reactionary way. They've come to a point where Haru doesn't have to try to get a rise out of him to grab his attention, instead speaking candidly and openly about whatever thought crosses her mind.]
I don't know...there are some animals out there who sell their bathwater as a business. I guarantee it.
[Yes she's alluding to e-girl bathwater.
But, she's unable to keep a straight face for long, laughing as she runs her hands across the top of her head, preening her ears as Legosi finishes rinsing her off.]
Well, there's only one way to know if they'll be serving rabbit soup tonight-- let's head in and find out.
[It's probably telling that there's more of a reaction out of him from the bathwater comment than the other, given the way his snout wrinkles like he'd just eaten a lemon...Haru, please...]
That...doesn't surprise me.
[It's honestly probably a topic that came up in his dorm room at least once while he was still there, what with the pack's tendency to enjoy talking about girls and their favorite idols and whatnot. Legosi tried not to think about it too hard, himself.
Haru's laugh makes even the topic of e-girl bathwater a worthwhile one though, his ears laying back against his head as he replaces the showerhead where it was before once he's through. He'll let Haru lead the way like before, though it seems like the space is still empty for the time being. The steam coming from the water's surface indicates it's plenty warm, possibly uncomfortably so for some who aren't as able to take the heat. For animals like Legosi, the thickness of the air gives him the urge to pant...but he holds it in for the time being because he's not WEAK-]
[That's exactly the kind of reaction she was going for, and she doesn't even try to mask the smug look on her face as his nose wrinkles. In a world like theirs, who knows just how e-girl bathwater is taken...
For Haru, the heat and steam coming from the hot bath isn't as oppressive as it must be for Legosi. Her fur isn't as thick, and though naturally she's more inclined to cooler temperatures at night, but she is really looking forward to a nice soak and getting their beach vacation started on the right foot. She enters the bath first; it's plenty deep for a large carnivore so she sticks to a side ledge made with smaller animals in mind.
Come on Legosi, it's fine to pant. That's what this place is for, anyway, to let it all out and relax.]
Ah, it's hot but not too hot. [Said while she sinks in for the water to come just above her shoulders.]
[He'll wait for Haru to get submerged before he follows her in, pretty immediately displacing a little bit of the water with his weight along with the small wave he causes as he sits down. It prompts a long, audible exhale from him as the water comes up to closer around his middle at first until he sinks down to sit on one of the slightly lower ledges to accomodate how tall he is. He notes the way he can see his fur being caught by the water beneath and thinks that he might benefit from another haircut in the near future...
For now, though, it's very nice. No matter how warm, the heat from the water basically forces him to relax as his ears slowly lay against his head.]
