[ tsuchin's fuzzy beans should be magical, after all. hina looks like a kid in a candy store as he takes the rabbit in his arms--affectionate as ever, tsuchin mashes his face into his, and hina folds over him immediately, squeezing just a little bit as he hugs him close.
he makes a happy noise, just like tsuchin, who snuffles happily and mushes his face in him, but... there's no memories that come from it, even with tsuchin wriggling and trying to get as close to his owner as rabbit-ly possible.
eventually, hina pulls his head up and shakes his head. no, nothing... but, for what it's worth, he seems a lot happier than he did five minutes ago. ]
[ having settled with his cute rabbit comfortably piled onto his chest, hina watches leo, his eyebrows pinching together just a little. that's a very lackadaisical way of looking at things, even he knows that...
...but right now, it's a little comforting. he's been a nervous ball of anxiety the entire day, trying to figure out how to get this curse broken, how to get the courage to sing, who he is, and maybe leo, his 'very best friend leo tsukinaga', has the right idea.
still quiet, he makes his way over to sit near leo, right in the spot where he pats. he has tsuchin bundled in his arms, and he turns his head to look at him with big, imploring eyes. please, it says. it sounds like 'nazuna' is the kind of person that hina might want to be. to have a friend like this... he has to be. ]
'Kay, so, like... You have the biggest immediate family I've ever seen? Like, I'm talking tons of kids. You're the eldest too, and you take 'em very seriously. Never met them as a whole, but I hang with your kid sibs every now and then. We absolutely do nothing dangerous.
[like diving into a stormy ocean or parkour on the roofs. nope. definitely don't.]
Um... Like, there's you and six others, I think? Big, big family, very close, very loving. [... which is a point of jealously for him, honestly; he knows his parents only wanted the best for him, but it was a strain.] You treat pretty much anyone you meet like it too, because you're so used to that sorta thing, it's nice.
[ a big family... that sounds really nice. hina thinks he can trust this leo, especially if he definitely never ever does anything bad with his siblings, and he listens very carefully to every word, trying to soak up all the information he can. six siblings? him? that's so many.
ah! at the second part though, he reaches over to give leo a poke in the cheek a couple of times, his head tilting to the side. does that include you, too? it says, though he can't really say so out loud. ]
well. nazuna treats him like family, even if leo doesn't think that's a returned feeling.]
Yeah! You're such a worrywart, I call you Mama to tease you, but you always get mad at me. ♪ I don't mind it though, even if my parents were pretty overbearing. You get away with a lot, Nihihina.
[ ...a smile comes onto his face, then, softer than a normal nazuna smile, making his cheeks pinken just a little. 'nazuna' gets away with a lot, huh...? it seems like he's really lucky, to have a friend like leochin.
he wonders if maybe this person needs to be worried over. probably...
hina folds his small hands in his lap, over tsuchin's head. he wishes he was able to ask more questions, but his voice fails him at the best of times, so leo gets a soft, melodic hum of interest. it sounds happy. ] ...♫
[nazuna never liked it when he called him cute, but that won't ever stop him from saying it anyway; he's super cute right now, with a face that warms his chest and leans him closer, stopping abruptly from doing what he'd do with any other "cute" person and hugging nazuna instead, cuddling into him. careful of tsuchin.]
I'll take care of you, okay? I don't know the most about you, but you can trust me! Whenever you come home -- and this is a home, Nihihina -- I'll be here, with tea and snacks and Tsuchin-tan. I promise. ♪
[ luckily for leo, hina doesn't really care about being called cute all that much. it feels a little off, but there's no pouting or complaining, especially with the hug. it takes a minute for him to respond, hands hovering in the air, awkwardly, but.
his small hands come up to gently curl around his arm, and he tilts his head into his, that smile brightening just a tiny, tiny bit. home. his eyes shut, and he stays there for a moment, though...
it's still clouded with a little anxiety, gnawing at his gut. he wants to fix this, he doesn't want to live like this forever... it feels wrong, in a million ways he can't really describe. hina stays close like that for a moment, absorbing the warmth that come from these two beings that apparently are his 'home', then traces the number 'three' into leo's forearm. he still needs to find three more people to fix this... ]
[... mmm. he doesn't want nazuna to go alone, and it might be easier for him if someone he knew and could trust was around, so he takes nazuna's hand and laces their fingers together, humming in acknowledgement.]
I know, I know, I got it. You want this done as soon as possible, right? Are you gonna be okay finding them on your own? Do you want me to come with you? Tsuchin-tan can't come with us, I think, but I can spare time when I'm not at the parlor.
[because he wants to protect nazuna and take care of him as much as nazuna's taken care of him before, curled around him to keep him safe and warm.]
[ hina nods, looking down at their hands. it's taken away a little bit of his words, but he doesn't mind too much, giving a soft squeeze to his hand. he might be okay finding people, but singing? that's a little different.
so, he touches his own mouth, and then touches leo's, small fingertips soft against his lower lip. hina then hums, a single, musical note. ] ♫
[leo's momentarily distracted by the fingertips alight on his lips, gentle and slight, and while he doesn't get the message exactly he can sort of gather the gist. maybe.]
I'll be with you. [it's a promise. squeezing his hand again, gentle.] Until your memories are back, I won't leave your side. You--
[he fumbles a bit, looking away, embarrassed.]
You've... You've done a lot for me. I'm just returning that, okay? Okay.
[ it's...really reassuring, actually. hina pulls his hand away and let it settle again, dropping it on top of leo's other one where they're curled together. his smile's widened, now, and he nods, once, twice, as if reassuring him.
in fact--
(and even though it's hard, even though his tongue doesn't want to work, he's got to try.) ]
L-Le... th...ank... [ nothing really comes out besides that, though, and he stops where he's started, cheeks turning pink, shutting his mouth again. embarrassed at himself, his failure to talk-it's the reason why he wants to be nazuna again. this life is pathetic, isn't it? but... having someone by his side? it feels like having leo leading the song will make things much easier. he feels safe. like he said. it feels like home. ]
[mmmmmmmmmmmmm so warm. it drops pleasantly into his stomach and branches out, tingling through the nerves just below his skin. leo grins widely, brightly, and ruffles nazuna's hair. he won't tease about it, just try and put his pride in his touches.]
