BUT AFFECTION WEEK... well, it doesn't change his personality, exactly? He has let Lavi drag him around plenty of times before, which, honestly, is more than he allows a lot of other people, so it's really his own fault that Lavi never learns--not that Kanda will ever admit or acknowledge this, like an IDIOT
Anyway--the clinging is normal, and even the willingness to tolerate it isn't that weird, so even though he grumbles about it, they make their way to the ranch with minimal violence. He eyes this field... ARE THOSE PUMPKINS...]
There's nothing to put them in. [still not soba :\]
[Lavi ignores Kanda's grumpiness as he always does, instead he tugs Kanda further into the field.]
Oh, sweet potatoes! We can roast those. And pumpkins too -- maybe we can make tempura later!
[he remembers bc he's a freak that kanda likes "Pumpkin, sweet pepper and lotus root tempura" specifically....]
C'mon, let's grab some.
[he'll unbutton his coat so he can use his GREEN/TEAL T-SHIRT as a shirt basket, shoving sweet potatoes in there... which unfortunately means he has to release kanda tch]
Lavi is busy studying the pumpkins to see which one(s) they should bring back, and then he looks up to see where Kanda is? WHERE'D THIS BINCH GO?]
-- Yuu?
[he gets up... feeling antsy... a sweet potato slips from his shirt and lands on his boot, but he ignores it. instead, he looks around like a sad loste dog for kanda]
Fortunately he's just going to get... idk. A BASKET FROM THE BARN?? STEALING THE MILK BUCKET??? Either way, he's not going very far, so it doesn't take him long to grab it and come back and start taking potatoes from Lavi's stupid shirt.]
[YUU... HE CAME BACK.... did lavi think he was just gonna ditch him WELL he cannot control the kanda die. there's always a calculated possibility of Kanda ditching him at all times and he's learned to roll with it.
Except he's stupidly happy that this time Kanda came back!!! UWAH!!! He's so happy that he'll take advantage of this moment of Kanda taking potatoes from his shirt to immediately embrace him while his hands are potato occupied, UWAH!!!!!!!!!]
[THE WAY I SAID HE'D ALLOW IT BUT YOU SAID "NOOO" ANYWAY
But he'll pass Lavi the bucket and go get a pumpkin!! Just one for now, he'll come back with more later. Their house will have so many pumpkins. What did he even get a fishing rod for.]
We have to cut them up first. [He could use Mugen but it'd probably be better just to grab the axe from the barn...]
[300 COMMENTS OF THEM BEING STUPID this is so funny
and also annoying bc he wants to touch too….. hmmmmm… the sooner they do this the sooner they can leave the barn cats and the sooner he can hold Kanda again!!!! This is kind of weird but it doesn’t feel wrong…]
You can play with ‘em while I chop up the pumpkins.
[he may not have visible abs but he has enough core strength to do this]
[He says this but he finds himself moving out of the way to sit down with minimal griping... but that's not, like, totally unusual? It's fine. What is a little weird is that it's kind of uncomfortable to sit far away, but he brushes it off as the cats immediately start to climb on him and bat at his hair.]
[JUST SIT THERE AND RECEIVE LOVE AND AFFECTION.... Lavi cuts up this pumpkin along the grooves, and starts peeling the skin in long chunks with the edge of the axe. it's a little unwieldy, but he manages for now.]
[Kanda dozes off..... which means Lavi can't do anything cool with this pumpkin to impress him.... which would be sad if he didn't think sleepy Kanda was also funny. He finishes up cutting the last of the pumpkins and carries it all over to their bucket.
the other cat starts batting harder at kanda's thigh? um can the lap cat move and make some ROOM???? but Lavi lures it away with a bit of raw pumpkin,]
Let him rest, yeah? We've been sleeping in shifts for two whole days now.
[even though they've slept like that for far longer and in more inclement conditions, but still. anyway he'll play with this cat so kanda can just fall asleep like a princess in his barn.]
[it doesn't actually hurt since he's wearing a boot but it's the principle of the matter? he tries to pet it with sticky pumpkin fingers]
What are you -- Kanda? Is that why you like him so much? Kindred spirits? [then again this behavior is also like allen.... he'll give it a little scritch under the chin and it calms down a little...
The cat calms down... and starts trying to ferociously lick the pumpkin off his fingers!! But it does that cat thing where it holds on with its paws and its little claws pop out to cling better. I rolled a 4 but I want to be nice to Lavi so this is my middle ground.
Kanda, meanwhile, is oblivious to all of this, because for once they are somewhere decently quiet (there are cows outside) DECENTLY QUIET, and there are no strangers nearby... sometimes you just gotta steal a little nap when you're with the one person here that you feel safe around.
Lavi endures these little kitty claws, even if some of them get into the skin of his fingers because these fcks wear FINGERLESS gloves,]
I'm gonna call you Mugen. Mu-mu?
[JUST CHRISTENS THIS VIOLENT KITTY CAT. he attempts to swoop the cat into his hands, turning back to look at Sleeping Kanda, his expression wholly different from when they've been taking shifts. It makes Lavi hesitate (FOR ONCE), and instead of bowling Kanda over AGAIN in this thread, he just keeps attempting to distract this kitty so Kanda get some REST,]

There's an axe over in the barn, but we gotta cut them there.

Aw, Yuu. You're so popular....
no subject
BUT HELP WHY THIS. THEY CAN'T SWING SHARP THINGS WITH CATS RIGHT HERE!!!]
It's because you're loud. [DOG ENERGY
But he nudges them towards Lavi... watches as these cats turn liquid and somehow wrap around his leg to come right back... SIGHS]
