1. Recurring theme which is their first date:
their technical first date is kinda a misunderstanding and they have this mutual agreement to not talk about it because itaru Basically made an assumption of the meaning behind it and Chikage is like.. well..........

(he definitely teases him about it at first which is why they have the agreement in place) haha chigasaki you had a crush on me ? Senpai please stop bringing that time up we& #39;re married
2. chikage semitransparent markings on "is in love", "wants children", and "wants to get married"
i try to keep my chikaita opinions on things like these mainly near canon timeline and with the amount of development chikage has if they were to date now he probably wouldnt think
i try to keep my chikaita opinions on things like these mainly near canon timeline and with the amount of development chikage has if they were to date now he probably wouldnt think
these things but i definitely do think he does in the future. i feel super strongly about chikage growing into the idea of marriage (look at his wedding card backstage) and i also think that he& #39;d be a really good dad. i think he would be a little scared to actually have a kid bc
of his upbringing obviously but i think that itaru would support him thru it and i just want them to be the funny dads. funny uncles are okay too but
3. "why is chikage marked under & #39;obviously interested& #39; AND & #39;tries to keep feelings under wraps& #39;???"
i know every single chikaita meta thread evan and i wrote in 2018 contained the phrase & #39;plausible deniability& #39; at least 12 times but. its the plausible deniability. he is obvious

in a way that can only thrive when its a mutual consensus not to talk about it. He knows itaru wont confront him. and teasing/putting on an act is different than showing that you truly want intimacy with somebody & its even more of a front.
This is why fwb to lovers is canon

i put chikage and itaru under different confession categories like they dont literally have to have everything ripped out of them instead of ever confessing voluntarily. Anyway, itaru confesses first

5. chikages most embarrassing memory of them is the confession not because he was the one who did the original confession but it was the first time he felt put on the spot & like it was something he couldnt really run from and he still feels like twelfth hand embarrassment bc he
couldnt rlly deflect as much as he wanted to and he thinks it was obvious that he had never had to deal with/do something like this before But little does he know that itaru still thinks that they werent eachothers first everythings LOL
6. chikage& #39;s biggest fear being "he doesnt know that i love him/care about him more than anything/etc"
One of my big opinions that has been shaped by headlong (lol)
I like the idea that as they get farther into the relationship itaru starts getting more and more comfortable and
One of my big opinions that has been shaped by headlong (lol)
I like the idea that as they get farther into the relationship itaru starts getting more and more comfortable and
its a lot quicker than chikage does. chikage never really "grows in" to words of affirmation like itaru does to an extent imo and as somebody who Needs to be selfless to survive it feels like he& #39;s taking more than he can give. But he loves itaru so much it just manifests diff and
its scary that he doesnt always know if itaru can speak the language he is
7. most important words
i think that something grounding like "it has to be you" or "im glad it was you" is probably the best thing you can say to somebody like chikage. Especially at the time that line came it literally feels like a "please dont leave" and its Bleggrhg

itarus most important words are "i love you" because As touched on before in this thread, chikage isnt the most verbally affectionate person ever and itaru definitely dies at the thought of "wait. hes saying it?!;?:" its a big deal.
