And Ann better appreciate this picture, because of how human Watanuki looks in it. He's a little shy and reluctant to open up to the camera, but there's a bit of a smile and he lifts his hand in a small wave.
There's no trace of the Witch of Dimensions here, no hint of the shopkeeper who deals in magic and favors. This is 100% Watanuki Kimihiro, a teenage dumbass who regularly finds himself in way over his head and still desires to be a normal human sometimes.]

Er...what? I'm not really asking that?
no subject
[she's insisting, sorry, watanuki]
no subject
[He's a little flustered now though.]
no subject
sorry, he's not getting out of this.]
You're not more prickly than Ryuji, c'mooooon.

It's a pinky promise!

Alright, guess we'll do this the American way.
[she holds out a hand to shake.]
no subject
A handshake it is.]
no subject
she looks a little relieved.
and then winks at him]
But I bet you wish I was serious about that girlfriend thing.
no subject
[His face says otherwise.]
no subject
I think it's only fair, y'know.
[said with the most charming of smiles]
no subject
[He's joking. He is 100% joking there.
Also look at that charming smile to match.]
no subject
... Though you'd be surprised at the number of men who'd believe I am some sort of noblewoman.
[she pauses.]
But you know, you're cute when you smile.
no subject
You should have taken a picture, I rarely smile.
But if you don't want -san, do you want -chan instead? Or no honorific at all?
no subject
And if I need to take a picture...
[she pulls out her cell phone.]
I can make that happen.
no subject
[He isn't saying 'no' to the picture, though. SELFIE TIME?]
no subject
So you better smile!
[she's definitely turning to take a selfie with him. IT'S HAPPENING.]

So when she turns the phone back to her to see, she lets out a laugh]
Aww-- honestly, I almost like this photo more than the charming smile you just gave me.
... Hey. So, does this mean you're not mad at me, anymore?
no subject
[He covers up his insecure teenage self most of the time. Probably because he's ashamed of the fact that he thirsts for approval.]
...I guess I'm not mad anymore, no. Knowing that Syaoran's not really gone helped with that a lot.
no subject
Okay.
I... wanted to say that I believed in us, that maybe we'd be able to find a happy resolution to things, that time.
I just got caught off guard. After missing Akira. After wondering if I pushed him to that course of action-- just by running my mouth.
And maybe I did.
But... I'm glad you're not mad at me for it anymore.
no subject
[He genuinely isn't mad anymore, though, so it all worked out.]
no subject
[she briefly leans against him.]
Guess you're right.
Anyway... I got a cute memory out of this.
no subject
I suppose that's a fair trade, yes.
