[Ugh. Okabe had this romantic proposal all planned out, with the Christmas Eve date, the little cake shop afterwards, he's got his crisp white shirt and tie on... He even shaved! (He puts a hand to his face nervously. It's already coming back in. Damn you, facial hair!) He had an exact plan of how this was going to go in his head.]
[And now, standing in Yoyogi Park after dark... Even after all the talking and arguing they did on their date, he's lost for words right now. For a man who preaches that theories are nothing more than words, the sight of Kurisu - the idea of their future, the future that was almost robbed from them - sure catches him unprepared.]
[He's tempted to step into his Kyouma pants for a moment, get just a shot of that confidence! The proverbial angel and devil on his shoulder argue about it for a beat, but eventually, he decides against it. He can ham it up later, if she comes back to his apartment-lab-mess; for now, it's time to lay his feelings bare.]
So, ah. [Out with it!, says the Kyouma-devil.] I've made a decision! [He must look such a fool. Good job, Okabe.]
