[She doesn't want to hurt anyone! Samatoki!! Also she knows he's soft, considering he was ready to quit his job to make sure she wasn't mad? Samatoki please. And who can be mean to Riou. So soft.]
O-okay! Then...[She's frowning because she's thinking very hard about this.]
I like your lashes.
[Wait is that what he's talking about. She just wanted to try, but the tsundere life is HARD.]
[So that's an example of being open and honest, admitting he's flustered. Mmm she's learning.
...
...Wait.]
O-oh I apologise, Samatoki! I didn't mean to fluster...[Actually, if she thought about this, this is a lie.] I guess I don't mind it when you're flustered, t-that's how I know I have some effect?
[God, now she knows why people pick on tsunderes like her.
She shakes her head.]
I apologise for making you uncomfortable now. I would say it is enough, but...[She presses the dog's nose into the screen. Squish. It's like a chuu.] I do not want to fluster like this so much. I rather you smiling.
[Oh does she know the pains of resting bitch face. Considering her eyebrows.]
I've seen it when you looked like you were succeeding in something. [Oh, that overlaps with being a dick.] And do it for Bones! [Less of a dick.] At least you have a choice, it's better than being unable to smile. [Vietnam you just don't notice yourself.]
Myself? [IT'S HER!!! So she thinks.] Every time I try, I tense up so much I end up looking like I'm going to hurt someone! I asked Thailand to teach me once, and all he did was try to make me laugh. I'm not sure if that worked since I was so focused on this strange t-shirt.
[Oh...she has smiled around him? Thinking about it, it wouldn't be too surprising considering she has a lot of fun around him. Would that have anything to do with it?]
I'll try harder! [Wait.] Somehow. I'll take lessons like I did last time. I know for a fact that you are the type who would make me smile, so if you thought you saw it, then I am inclined to believe you.
[Maybe Thailand's lessons weren't that off after all.
Also she looks so serious about this, it's like the opposite of smiling and her determination radiates intensity where it looks like she can burn a hole into this screen with her eyes alone.]
[If for him, she'd be willing for him to take any photo of her smiling. One, she wants to remember it, and two, it's because he made her smile.
However, here comes phase 2 of her physical insecurities.]
A-ah, I hope it works out, because of how nervous I am smiling, I'm not photogenic. I have tried, a little. [Practicing her selfie moments in secret? You bet.]

[WELL, PARTS OF IT. Not everything. She knows what he's about.]
no subject
[ Even if it hurts people!
Though Samatoki's actually the opposite... he's confusing. He doesn't like hurting women, especially. Women and Riou......... ]

[ DON'T KEEP COMPLIMENTING HIM LIKE THIS HE'S GONNA DIE FADSLKGH ]
no subject
Then when do I do it at all?!
no subject
[ Fuck! He's just saying whatever now... ]
Shit! Now I'm flustered!
no subject
...
...Wait.]
O-oh I apologise, Samatoki! I didn't mean to fluster...[Actually, if she thought about this, this is a lie.] I guess I don't mind it when you're flustered, t-that's how I know I have some effect?
no subject
[ He looks a little put off for a moment or two, but he eventually calms himself down. He's yelling?? Riou can hear him next door??? Damn. ]
Yeah, well, you know now. Ain't that enough?
no subject

no subject
[ ... It's like a chuu, indeed. He doesn't want to assume anything, though. ]
no subject
W-well! It's a kiss, no? Wouldn't it be weird if I tried to kiss you better through a screen? Colonel can do it.
no subject
[ ... Like, not because the gesture is weird but because they aren't at that stage of their not-dating relationship yet. ]
no subject
[And now Colonel is held out again. It looks confused. And actually kind of hungry.]
A-anyway! My point being, it's better if you remain coolheaded. When you smile, others pick on you less.
no subject
[ Okay, he does when he's feeling like a dick and is absolutely confident. His face is more resting bitch face than anything though. ]
no subject

no subject
[ Because it's definitely not her?? ]
no subject
no subject
[ Hm. His brain is actually working right now. Hold on a second... ]
Guess it just works fine if someone makes you do it. If you do it on purpose by yourself, then it's not great.
no subject
[She hasn't noticed it herself, so she never realised. Yeah, after that long. Look, she's lived a lot in solitude.
Also you can do it, single braincell!]
I clam up, for sure. [She pauses.] I've been smiling around you?
no subject
[ He seems to recall having seen her smile before... but if she's not being upfront about smiling with him, then he can't really do much about it. ]
Guess I must've been seeing things.
no subject
I'll try harder! [Wait.] Somehow. I'll take lessons like I did last time. I know for a fact that you are the type who would make me smile, so if you thought you saw it, then I am inclined to believe you.

[ He'll be the judge of that! ]
