[That's too much tickling! A soft whine leaves him as he backs his head away from those devilish fingers, telling her to stop, holding back a giggle from escaping. Her words are only making the blush on his cheeks redder]

St- stop that, idiot... Monika.

[He's stuck between wanting to stay on her chest and moving away from those teasing fingers. Oh, what torture he's experiencing. Maybe one day he can speak of his feelings in his own ways, with words rather than action, but that day wouldn't be today. Fortunately her fingers stop and Soundwave breathes out a sigh of relieve, but mild surprise flits over his face when he feels something slide behind the avatar's ear. Ah, she promised him a flower earlier.]

I am not a flower. [Pout pout.] But... thank you. It's... beautiful.

[He'll keep there for the rest of the day. Maybe if he has a mirror, he'll think he looks pretty? Hah, no way he'll actually think that.

Satisfied with resting on her chest, and honestly he's in danger of actually falling asleep if not for Monika's teases keeping him awake, Soundwave pushes himself away from her chest. However, he suddenly presses his cheek against hers and starts to nuzzle, even if doing so makes his cheeks flushed redder. She wanted some of that Soundwave-y intensity? There, she'll get it in a form of some intense cheek nuzzling before pulling away for good.]

I think I've rested enough. Shall we get going?

[He reaches for her hand but stops short of grabbing her, before changing his mind and links his arm with hers instead. This feels nicer, and what a friendly way to stay connected.]
