"Somewhere else. Somewhere quieter, somewhere more..." More fitting for Seimei. Somewhere he wouldn't have to worry about being judged for who, what, he was. Somewhere that he didn't have worry about maintaining a charade, somewhere...

...but Kaoru didn't want to have to worry about that now, even though the worry surfaced again, of having to build again the precarious bridge between Seimei and Hikaru.

"...nowhere." Changing his answer. Not because he was fickle, but because he simply didn't want to be outside of this moment, right now. Watching - enjoying watching - Seimei like this, even doing something so domestic as making tea. "I would want you here. In this moment with me, until we're forced into thinking outside it."
