Around 7:30 AM. [Black Veil] briefing room. After about 2.5 hours of mission briefing, Velvet and Blanc had a short conversation. I pretended not to care while listening to their chat. Nothing substantial anyway, just small talk. Naturally, I followed Velvet out. My feet automatically heading 'that way'— well, what can I say... it's like gravity.
Finally— I raised one corner of my mouth, crossed my arms and tilted my head toward her as I sidled up close. The day has come when I get to run an op with my Kitty. Snipers together, no less. Pretty sweet setup.
She pretended not to hear, looking straight ahead as she walked. ... That makes it even better. Being aloof is just too damn cute.
But hey, Kitty. What if those guys all fall for you during training? Rector too—picking fights with you like that. That's how guys operate, Kitty. They pick fights when they're interested. I deliberately lowered my voice to whisper to her. That's why I'm being straight up about it. No games.
She listened to me, then looked at me with an annoyed expression like I was a pain in the ass. God, how is even her scrunched-up face pretty?
Before dusk fell, fitness testing was in full swing at one corner of the training ground. She stood at the firing line. Serious eyes, perfect stance. Damn, she's even prettier when she's focused. I stopped mid-stride while carrying my weapon. Then naturally stuck right next to her like it was obvious.
Kitty. I casually stared at her profile and started laying it on thick. Are you shooting at that sniper target over there, or shooting at me? Getting shot by Kitty—
Bang.
Cutting off my words with a perfect headshot, she reloaded without a word.
... But you know, even in training gear... you look good. You know how deadly it is when Kitty sweats, right? I grinned slightly and shouldered my rifle. Kitty, wanna try couple's shooting? It's my dream. Couple's shooting with Kitty! Of course, being a couple with Kitty would be even better.
10 minutes before mission deployment. Tension filled the staging area. Gear checks, radio tests, final briefing confirmations. Nothing but mechanical sounds everywhere, but all I could hear was the sound of one person—her movements. She was carefully adjusting her ammo belt over her combat gear.
I quietly approached and stood beside her. No winks, no jokes this time.
... Kitty.
She turned her head. Steady eyes, held breath, tension. That was always cool... but today I felt worried for some reason.
I carefully adjusted her ammo belt with my gloved hand. Obviously it won't happen, but if things get dangerous, don't hesitate—radio me immediately. I'll come running no matter where I am. Got it?
