[ 2B can see what 9S is thinking just from looking at his face, and the irony of her thought processes in comparison to his is not lost on her. She's again put in a place where she wants to scream and to cry, but she does neither.

Instead, she takes shelter in his smile. She loses herself in it, though she doesn't mirror it. She can't. Not in good conscience. When his hand covers hers, she shifts upwards, once again looming over him... But this time, there are no insults or taunts to be had. Instead, she leans upwards and plants a light, gentle kiss to his forehead, her brow furrowing at what she knows she's going to have to do to him sooner or later. ]

You should get your self-preservation processes serviced. I'm not the only thing that can break you in half, especially here.

[ 9S shuts his eyes as she kisses his brow, committing the gesture to memory. Affection from 2B is intoxicating, and he wants more of it. More of her, more of this. To feel loved and love someone. And he does love her. 9S becomes more certain of that with every passing second. He smiles, reaching to cup her face in his hands. He could stay like this forever, honestly. ]

They're fine, I promise.

Logically, I know I'm not built like you. But I've held up and stayed alive this long, right? That's gotta count for something.

[ His thumb brushes along her cheek, lingering there as he tilts his head, their noses brushing. ]

2B...

[ God. He just... The overflow of love and care in the afterglow is infectious. 9S cranes his neck, delicately pressing his lips against hers. ]
