It would get in the way. I could do a necklace or earrings, though. Neither would get in the way. [ And, well, if he wanted to keep that out of the way, he could probably tuck a necklace under some of his shirts. He supposed it would depend on whatever he would find when he would pick something out. ]
That is silly.
[ The tone is teasing her, just a little. It doesn't even sound sincere. Because honestly? He's kind of touched that she asked. Not a feeling he'd easily admit to having, nor would he readily show, but he is. He accepts the bracelet, despite what he says. ]
Alright, for this time.
[ He'd probably do it anytime she asked, though. ]
Oh, just let me be sentimental, you big jerk. It's special, you know?
[She laughs, extending her hand once he takes the bracelet. Once he's got it, she pushes up the sleeve of her bathrobe to bare her wrist and make room for him to work.]
...I'm sorry you're stuck here in outer space instead of being back at home in Morioh. But I'm not sorry that you're here with me.
[She fidgets a moment.]
I hope we don't get separated again. I'd miss you.
[ It is special. There's a little bit of a grin, and his fingers move over the bracelet, before slipping it onto her wrist. His fingers remain there, lingering for a moment and his eyes lock onto it there now. When he looks at it, he thinks that he'd like to have something to go with it. Stupid and sentimental.
But it's what she says afterwards that makes his eyes separate from the jewelry and lock onto her. ]
Don't be sorry about that.
[ It's not like this place is all that great, with the way they push people - force changes, want intimacy for money. But, at least he can be grateful she's here. And, with her last words, his hand slips up to her cheek. That's the right thing to do, right? Plus (of course), Chroma. ]
I'd miss you, too.
[ There's much less reluctance in the words this time than there has ever been before. ]

Of course I would.
