[there is both an emotional equivalent of a wince and also a real wince about takeru being mad.... he is still so mad.... but it also doesn't stop him from leaning into the touch automatically, turning his face into takeru's palm for a second as if to hide briefly.
though he turns back to meet his eyes again after a moment]
.... yeah. I know if I was on the other side, I'd be saying the same thing. Hell, it's what I'd tell to Vira-san and she was actually there.
[though that's a secret mineo's not about to spill to anyone else. he sighs and presses a brief kiss to takeru's palm]
... you can yell at me more if you need to. I can take it.
[he can still tell takeru is so mad]

If I saw you earlier than now, I would have yelled.
[ he'll just be upfront about it. he's aware he would have lashed out rather badly if he didn't have the time to sit on his feelings for a while ]
There are still other things I'd like to say. But... in the grand scheme of things, I don't think it's worth it at the moment. It's not something we really need.

[a nod of understanding. mineo probably would have yelled back even though he didn't have a right to because he's an idiot and especially combative with takeru. it would've been bad.
but.
there is still some sense of discomfort.]
.... you can say them. [a little bit more nudging] I don't want you to sit on them, and have it fester.
You've always been honest with me, no matter how painful it was. I... don't really want you to stop now?
[not when mineo finally feels like maybe he can actually tackle takeru's criticisms to improve instead of just getting beat up by them and feeling worse]
