[- Another little jump on his end, hearing that she actually... thinks he's cute like this??
The way he flushes is instantaneous. ... And deep, with how pale his skin is.

That umbrella's taken with a nod of thanks, though, and opened for him to huddle under.
And... he takes a moment, here, to look up at it above him. Half just thanks to not having his magic muddying his vision, but also half so he can ponder for a moment.]

... I'm glad you still find me attractive like this. Considering I'm human.

You're Louis. Even when you're human, I love you too much to be afraid.

[Makes perfect sense to her.]

Ah... is it truly just fear that fuels your struggles with humans?

[Here he thought that fear drove her to find humans unattractive, honestly--]

Fear's the primary part of it, yeah. I used to see corpses any time I kissed a human, but I've been able to work on that a little bit.

... Well, I suppose it helps that in this instance, I'm still technically dead. Merely given human form while I use this ability, that's all.
Perhaps my ability to switch between the two could help you with it further...?

Maybe! -And even if it doesn't, I won't complain about kissing you like this anyway.

Really? Even though I am, for all intents and purposes, currently fully human?

[...]

I was about to say "and I am hideous like this", but I realize you would argue that. But...
Please know, too, this is very, very painfully similar to my looks while alive...

[Hey surprise it's her turn to hold HIS face.]

You're handsome to me. Everyone else is just missing out.

[Oh, face is held --]

...

I -
I'm flattered you feel that way, but... as I said, this is nearly how I looked while I was alive...

So?

...Oh, because of your age when you died, that makes it weird?

[Yeah she would have to reconsider calling teenagers handsome, not a huge fan of that.]

No? Because -
Because of who I was when I was alive? I was a nasty, horrible person - and now I have that person's face once more?

[...]

... Is that - w-would that make it weird for you...? That I died that young? I'm sorry, I should have considered that...

Your insides haven't changed. [Evangeline brushes her thumb across his cheek.] You're still my beloved friend, who dedicates himself to making people happy. Even if you look how you used to, you haven't become that person again.

[And now she's going to kiss him again, full of love and warmth.]

Well, no, technically my insides have changed, as the organs of Grim Reapers are all simply fascimiles of organs, and as a human, I --

[-- Oh he's getting kissed.

His heart nearly leaps into his throat with how easily the kiss comes, his newfound pulse hammering over it, but... obviously he's going to return it, regardless - bringing up one of his own hands to cup her cheek as he does.

And from his end of their connection, too, she'll feel warmth bubbling in; something soft and small, but nonetheless pronounced as he tries to will his heartbeat back to something more calm.]

[He's so cute. The warmth and affection in her just swells - at his reaction, at his tiny feeling of warmth in return. She brushes her fingers through his hair delicately as the kiss lingers.

She's not pulling away anytime soon. They are also still in public, but that's someone else's problem.]

[If it's someone else's problem, well, he's gonna go ahead and do something about that - he does still have that umbrella open, after all, so it's as easy as tilting it to hide them both as he presses into that kiss a little more.
Should they be kissing like this out here in public? Probably not!
But he's gonna do it anyway, and she's gonna get every little drop of adoration from him that she can.

... Even if he can feel himself flushing even harder.]

[He's so smart! And he deserves to be kissed more for his decision! So she does.

She only eventually pulls away mostly out of consideration to his newfound need to breathe.]

No flashbacks. No terror.

[- Oh, yeah, that's a thing, huh? Honestly, he even looks a little dazed when she pulls back, but he blinks that away nice and quick.
Though it takes him a second to catch up with what she just said, needing to remember what they'd been talking about before the kiss.]

Ah... Good - good. It's good that... you aren't going through that. Yes.

- Again?

[He looks so keen asking... of course... And hey, even better -
She won't be dealing with his magic at all, so she could kiss him as much as she'd like!

Aside from the fact that they're in public, anyway.]

Always!

[She goes for it again, deeper from the get-go now that she knows they're shielded from prying eyes. They could be at this a while.]

[They really, really could. She should know how much he enjoys this, honestly - he's not about to complain, or ask to stop, or anything.
People can't see them, and he can take breaks for air, so why should he??

RIP their afternoon, spent kissing in the Gardens behind a Cthulhu umbrella.]

[Probably no one's going to dare tell them to stop, so they could be here for a while!

An afternoon well spent.]
