[ he's a little shy himself so it's. fine. just two grown men being shy about having feelings like adults.
he looks down a little after the kiss and decides to sort of... go... around? the subject. it's related but not directly. look. he's trying his damn best ]
... We never really... talked about this thing? Maybe that's why Lup got in her own head. [ "this thing". words. are so fucking hard. he shrugs a shoulder ] ... Anyway, I like you.
[ he says, to the ground. mostly. he still doesn't think it needs to be said, he thinks it is pretty damn obvious when he doesn't like someone, and he's pretty sure jason got it by now, but like. whatever. there. he said it. ]
[Luckily for Cloud, he is quiet, but that's because it's required. He watches Cloud's face without staring too hard, listening. Similarly to Cloud, he's still somewhat embarrassed they're having this discussion even if he gets a stupid sort of subdued smirk. Yeah, he sort of got it without the words.
Or, rather, he accepted it? Whatever it was, whether it happened to be dating, or just a fling, or something else.] ... [He reaches up to tap Cloud in the chest over the heart. He taps twice, the second one firm. Then he taps his own chest. You and me. Whatever that means.
He wraps his arms around Cloud's shoulders and hugs him. It is a weird hug he has not gotten yet, strangely clutching with one hand in Cloud's hair, something kind of happy and kind of apologetic but also kind of sure.]
[ whatever that means indeed. today isn't exactly the best day to talk about it (for obvious funny haha talk reasons), so cloud's willing to leave it at that for now. so of course the hug takes him by surprise, making a soft noise in the back of his throat.
the hug feels almost familiar and really not, at the same time. he doesn't linger on that feeling too long before raising his arms to clutch back at jason's back. and then lowering one because actually no that still hurts, so it's one armed on his end, but he clings back harder to make up for it. ]
