Oh, of course! I would...I would love that, actually.
[ Hehe. He was her first kiss, after all, and it was very pleasant. Of course she'd want to see him again. And no, her hand's not leaving his for the entire duration of the walk. ]
[...You know what? Asking her was a bit nerve-wracking, surprising even himself, but he couldn't be more pleased to know she's interested in spending more time together. He's happy, genuinely. These days, the feeling of being wholly and truly happy, even for only moments at a time, is almost foreign.
Diluc walks Lucia all the way back home.]
The pleasure is mine... but a small request, if I may. [This is an embarrassing admission, but:] I'm... not quite used to using the telephone, so if you wouldn't mind correspondence by letter, I'll respond to you as soon as possible.
[ Ah, yes, ye old... Lucia can't help but laugh a little. She hasn't written a letter to someone in a very long time, but she gives him a nod when they walk up to her porch. ]
Sure, I can do that. I'll write to you when I can, but if you ever want to learn how to use it, just let me know.
[ Subconsciously, she gives his hand a squeeze. ]
Ah, but please excuse my handwriting, it's not the greatest...
[Ah... Considering how useful some of the technology on this island is, he probably should learn how to utilize the phone. His laugh's a bit bashful, and he feels like he really ought to figure it out on his own rather than inconveniencing Lucia, but he has a feeling she'd be happy if he took her up on the offer instead. She's a sweet girl like that.]
Perhaps we can both teach each other a new skill? I took more than my fair share of writing classes as a child.
[Speaking of sweet... It's finally time to return Lucia's hand to its rightful owner, but not before guiding it up to his lips and dusting her knuckles with a kiss.]
I'll look forward to hearing from you again. Until then.
