he ducks his head against his hand, cheek pressing into his palm, and grins at him. delighted, mischievous, affectionate all at once - the grin's as boyish and buoyant as his emotions. ]
there's a little ripple of-- it's not discomfort, really. not exactly uncertainty. it's just... this is unfamiliar ground to tread, for someone who has felt so comfortable with his place in the world for as long as he has.]
But you do remind me of others I know, at home, who I-- [hngh.] Care for.
there's a moment where it looks like he might tease, but. he's going to reward this valiant attempt, ducking in to kiss him. ]
Well. [ close enough, on the tip of his tongue, but vax bites it back. still, that playful warmth is easily felt through the emotion share, though it's softer. good, warm, honest vibes. ] You're like absolutely fucking nobody I've met before.
[ actually, his story is... closest to vax's, really, and furthest away, too. it's nice - a feeling of camaraderie and affection all wrapped up together. staying paused there, he will admit, tilting his head just slightly, side to side, like he's pondering. ] Guess I was fishing a little.
[ oh very affectionately, like to the point that emotion share is just redundant because it's so obvious: ] You are very fucking strange.
[ stop. terrible. also emet's being tsundere again, but vax does not say that, just smiling and wafting off those pleased vibes ... and then chasing another smooch. and another! and another. is emet trying to talk? sorry, ]
[ help etjklrhjdfh HE'S LAUGHING, or, he's trying really hard not to laugh, but this is fine. this is great, actually? he's not going to be the first one to pull away, either, shifting to put his elbows up on his shoulders and twine his fingers in his hair if emet'll let him, fully pleased to kiss him back.
[ well damn emet if you just want to make out say so
this is how this starts, because emet just lets him do whatever he wants like all the time? terrible. sometimes you end up winning.
his emotions radiate similar, though. vax has never been good at hiding his emotions, and emotion sharing doesn’t make him much different - his affectionate ease comes through as he returns the kiss, making a soft pleased hum when it’s both returned and more touchy, easily leaning into emet’s hand. a good reward after lots of business talk. ]
[those shared emotions help; emet-selch picks up on them easily, and while he certainly won't miss sharing his own feelings-- this is good. it might normally be clear, but feeling it is still different from just reading them in someone.
vax leans into his hand, and he just settles further, relaxing into this more, lingering tension slowly easing from him.]

[he rolls his eyes, but he doesn't resist the smooch. vax can have that; the feeling of affection ends up mirrored, to a degree.]
And I should certainly hope I am not like any you have met, given how strange all of you seem to think that I and my star must be.
