A few minutes after giving them cold medicine, the Protagonist checks on them, only to be dragged down onto the bed, have hands clumsily squishing their cheeks, and their sleepy crush slur out, "You're really pretty. Makes me want to kiss you."
And then they konk out right there, leaving the Protagonist a blushy mess to tuck them back into bed.

Luke: I don't think so… *They argue again* Anakin: Children, children, I don't have favorites. I love you all equally. Luke and Leia: Aww! Anakin: If I had a favorite, everyone would know it would be Ahsoka. Luke and Leia: D: Ahsoka: :D
I couldn't help but do it XD
Ahsoka: This is a nice place... Rex: Yeah. Ahsoka: The food was very tasty... Rex: Yeah. Ahsoka: This is a date isn't it? Rex: Noooo... Rex: Yes.
I'm sure this would happen to these two fools... XD
