[Pause]

...Kiss?

[blink. stare. blink blink blink]

...Under a plant? Seriously?

[heartstings]

[She's trying not to grin in case he thinks she's joking but she can't help the grin.]

Yup. It's tradition.

[privatepurchases]

[This is profoundly uncomfortable. But.

Learn about human traditions. Staring down at her he crosses his arms and is unaware - utterly unaware - that his face is beet red.]

...So...I want to learn about this. How do we - what do you need me to do?

[heartstings]

[The color rising to his face just makes it all the better. She's filing this away to mess with him later.]

Well, first you're a little too tall. [Sure she could probably use her wings to hover but what fun is that? He's going to have to come down to her level.]

[privatepurchases]

[Pause.]

And this is a human tradition. well-

[He lowers himself to her level looking curious before his gaze looks upward.]

Those are poisonous. It's very strange it's associated with kissing-

[heartstings]

[She cuts him off by pressing her lips against his. It's not a brief kiss either, she holds it for a few moments unless he happens to pull back, before drawing back and grinning at him.]

Yeah, well, that's why we don't eat it. [To address his earlier concerns.]

[privatepurchases]

[Oh.

Oh.

That was - ugh human's and touching but also- wow...

His face goes ghost white before he goes red again and puts a hand to his cheek before grinning stupidly.]

I didn't know human beings could do that.

[And then he harrumphs because - need time to process that.]

...Humans make rules and break them all the time. It's so weird.

[heartstings]

[Kenzi is a very touchy-feely kind of human, especially with those she considers friends or just wants to mess with.

She grins and lets out a little laugh.]

Oh, hun, there's so many things us humans can do.

[privatepurchases]

[Stare.

He coughs into his hand even though he doesn't need to.]

Yes well.

...Yes um.

Yes.

I can only imagine.

[heartstings]

[She chuckles. Oh how she loves making people like him flustered.]

Can you imagine it? Like, to the full extent?

[privatepurchases]

I don't want to think about it.

[He squirms]

We designed the basics and you...went running off and took it to levels that have made several of the younger angels cry.

[heartstings]

[That gets a good laugh out of her. The poor angels but also it's hilarious.

Sorry, she's not a good person.]

I guess there's a flaw in free will...or semi-free will. [She waves her hand.] Whatever.
