Symphogear Trill-OLD EDITION

"Stories sometimes do not always start the same way, nor do they always tell everything there is to be within it. Some stories become completely different over time as details are lost to the ages, or sometimes, two similar tales can be made completely different by only a minority of differences."-Old version that is being left as is.

Between 3: The Sentinel Tries Something New

"Kyomei, I want to try cooking tonight!"

"Huh?"

Kyomei turned from the papers he was working on as his bedroom's door blew open, Tsubasa standing there with as determined a face as ever, even if the topic was more mundane than the usual things she would get fired up over.

"Well… do you have something in mind?" Kyomei got a nod in response. "Alright then. I'll help walk you through it."

A few moments later in the kitchen of their shared apartment, both Kyomei and Tsubasa had aprons on. While Kyomei was doing preparation… and to Kyomei's clear amusement, Tsubasa was, in an event of nothing but sheer, and pure irony, having a hard time working the cooking knife to cut the vegetables they were preparing.

"Doing alright there Tsubasa?" Kyomei said, Tsubasa giving a grumble.

"It's merely another blade… this isn't that hard." Tsubasa may have said that, but she was clearly struggling with it… and Kyomei's face was clearly amused by this.

"She's so cute when she's trying hard." Kyomei thought. He then put down what he was prepping and slid over, Tsubasa flinching as Kyomei's hands found their way to her forearms, the young man putting his chin on her shoulder. "You're moving it too hard. A cooking knife isn't a sword, so don't force it."

"A-Ahhhh… r-right…"

"Here, let me help a bit."

Tsubasa's face was all kinds of red as Kyomei's hands went over her own, helping her smoothly move the knife to cut through… and whether he was doing this so as to intentionally embarrass Tsubasa the entire time or not was something the girl herself had no clue of.

"And there, done!" Kyomei finally moved away once the task was finished, and he snickered a bit as Tsubasa leaned on the counter. "You okay?"

"I-I'm fine." Tsubasa clearly wasn't though, and Kyomei chuckled, patting her on the head.

"You'll get better as you improve." Kyomei said, and when Tsubasa sighed and turned to him, she got met with being given a light peck on the lips, Kyomei chuckling as it left Tsubasa stunned. "Though I love you plenty as you are."

"A-Ahhhh…"

FWUMP

"EH?! Tsubasa! Hey, don't collapse on me now!"

FEEEEEN

"AH! It's starting to burn! Tsubasa, please get up and help!"

"I... it's too much... he's too much..."

"Tsubasa! Now isn't the time to space out!"
