[Allen goes quiet, the full weight of that actually settling the way Rin's intending. so it's really a self-preservation kind of request, too. he can understand that.]
All right.
But I also need you to understand that this Noah, the Fourteenth, Nea--he isn't me. In any sense. Entirely different memories, entirely different personality that was implanted in me. It's not like your situation, so I don't... know what he'll do. I don't know much about him at all, really.
Right. If it comes to it, he's an entirely different person.
['I want to fight him. Draw him out.'
Rin is immediately shoving those impulsive thoughts from the demon as far away from his mind as he can. No fighting, no forcing Nea out. This is a what-if scenario.]
If he's someone else entirely then I guess I can't kiss you back, huh?
[It's embarrassing to say and he almost stumbles over the word, but he's trying to fluster Allen so the conversation isn't quite so serious.]

[but Allen would think it's charming and also funny. which is why he'll plant a kiss on Rin's cheek right now.]

Aaaand then he goes red when Allen kisses him on the cheek. But he looks pleased with this? Yes, this is good.]
