[ The light-hearted suggestions draw a chuckle from his throat. They dropped contact with him for almost a year for an assault charge—if his parents were to think he's dating a yazuka member, they might disown him on the spot. Which really isn't that funny of a thought, but Ryuji's mischievous grin makes brings some humor to it anyway. ]
I'm trying to convince them, not give them heart attacks. [ The words are light and unperturbed, though.
And then Ryuji brings up a good point. How far is he willing to take this? How far does he need to? There's really no telling on the latter, but Ren can't say that he's opposed to the idea of kissing Ryuji. Not at all. It's just that doing it under false pretenses and secretly getting enjoyment out of it seems kind of…
Yeah.
But if Ryuji is the one bringing it up, would he really mind that much…?
Ren shakes the thought loose so that he can focus on responding. ]
I don't think just introducing you would be enough. [ If anything, that might make her more doubtful. Like he's trying to prove it without anything substantial to back it up. They already know Ryuji exists and that they're close enough that he would probably agree to something like saying he's Ren's boyfriend if asked. They have to make it seem like something they wouldn't go as far as to fake.
Damn it, his mind keeps coming back to kissing. ]
We'd have to sell it. [ Make it seem like it's second nature. ] Like it's just how we act around each other. So things like touching each other and the way we look at each other and—maybe kissing when they think we think they're not looking.
