[ while usually polite, ryuu's far from shy in friendly circumstances like these, promptly getting his sip in so he can hand sougo's drink back to him. his expression smooths out at the fiery taste, and even as the cocoas return to their rightful owners, he's dutifully thinking it through. ]

Mine might taste more traditional, but yours is pretty unique too! I'm glad it turned out to be delicious after all.

[ and that his choice hadn't lead this outing astray. it would be awkward if he'd chosen badly, after all... so that's one worry to put aside. with that in mind, ryuu uses his height advantage to find them a way through the throngs of people so they're not left standing and drinking. it's a bit of a squeeze here and there, but eventually he leads them out onto a walkway that branches away from the main square, where things are a little quieter, but no less illuminated. eventually, benches come into view, lining the well-kempt path around the square. it's far from empty, with prismal groups chatting and taking pictures by saturated neon light, but much more tame in comparison to the vendor stalls.

pointing to a free spot with his cup-holding hand, he leans aside. ]

- ah, there. How does that look? Nice, right?

I'd be surprised if it wasn't, since it seems to be so popular.

[Being tall truly does have its advantages. Not that Sougo is particularly short - average height isn't so bad, but he's slight, and has a tendency to be too lenient with crowds in general. Waiting patiently for others and trailing behind large groups of people at a slower pace is just fine, as long as there's no immediate rush to get anywhere. But it can certainly be frustrating, so it really is amazing that Ryuu manages to lead them through the crowd so quickly.

And what a lovely place, too! The lights somehow seem much more dazzling with fewer people around.]

That's perfect.

[Just enough space for two people! Sougo still doesn't let go of Ryuu's hand as they make their way over to take a seat, not at all minding that they probably look an awful lot like a couple. Thinking too much on it would send his mind into overdrive, so he only takes a sip of his drink instead, grinning as he pulls back from it.]

Even with the chill in the air, I could stay out here for hours. It's beautiful, isn't it?
