[Hikaru's certain this whole thing has happened because Taichi didn't think but neither did Hikaru when he first confessed. But now all he can do is think and think and think. What a pain. It's one thing to be plotting but another to be thinking so much about romance.
But all he can think about is Kaoru when he holds onto him like that and he gawks.] Proposal?! We're not even dating! I can't even think about that. Geesh, Kaoru. You always just...[Overthink. He let's Kaoru hold onto him and then Hikaru pulls away so he can gather Kaoru into his arms, resting his chin on his head.] He would have to ask you for your approval anyway, right? I wouldn't marry anybody if they didn't ask you about it and nobody can marry you if they don't ask me.
[Which probably sounds odd and maybe it is but Hikaru and Kaoru together are nothing but odd. Nobody else has to understand that or them.]
I don't even know why this came to him. You should have heard the song. You should have seen the dance. [Now that he's gotten some space from it, he's kind of laughing about how absurd it is. Cheesy and not anything Hikaru is into but at the same time...] It probably took him a while to get it all together. Better than those stupid confession letters we used to get, I guess.
[Maybe now that Hikaru thinks about it a little more, maybe he is just a little happy Taichi did it. Not the public display, not the flash mob, not any of that...but just the effort he put into Hikaru. Into his feelings for Hikaru. That was a little special.]
I still just can't believe you planned a surprise party for me without letting me know or you trained him in making those gloves for me while I was freaking out about having a crush on him.
Well now you've seen how far he can go out of left field if he doesn't have anyone to keep him on the straight and narrow. And if he'd screwed up clothes for you, that would have been just tragic...
[...but he's deflecting. More than a little bit.]
...maybe I should have just let him loose on the sewing machine.
[There's a snicker.] The straight and narrow. [There was nothing straight about this. But moving along...!]
You're so mean. [But he's not really chastising him and in the end, he knows what Kaoru's real interest was in playing guide to Taichi was. Yes, he had wanted something good enough for his brother but even Hikaru knew it was more than that.
He nuzzles the top of Kaoru's head.] Maybe next he'll try to make you something to win over your approval.
tmw you think a thread has been quiet, but it's because your own tag never went through ;A;
[though he freezes up under Hikaru a bit, with the creeping horror of such a proposition]
It's not gonna come to that, is it? You really think it could? Not only do I have to watch out for him flash-mobbing you again, but I have to make sure he doesn't do it to me, either?
[if anything that gives him the right to be mean...!]

[pouting against his brother's chest, now.]
I mean, technically he did, back in Lunatia, but this is different world now so he should have at least checked...
[so does he expect Tachi to check in with him before he decides to get swept up in some marriage proposal fantasy...?
No.]
But he probably knows that if he had asked I would've nixed the mob in a heartbeat.
