[It's strange. He thought he'd be a lot more nervous, doing this...which, make no mistake, he still is...but he's been through so much in the last few days (if days even count anymore when you're dead) that he's not sure he really cares enough to be embarrassed about things like this anymore. He's been kidnapped in a school prison for four weeks, a tenure that ended in him accidentally killing his girlfriend before being executed in front of a congregation of people he considered to be his family.
Things have kindof sucked.
And he thought he'd lost Rina forever too, both figuratively and literally...so this? This is his way of reclaiming what he thought he'd lost. Not just accepting Rina's acceptance of him- her desire to be with him again- but also making things a bit more official between them. He wished every second after her death that he'd done things differently, treated her differently, so now that they're here together in the afterlife...he isn't about to make that mistake again.
He draws back after a moment of this, a nervous laugh escaping him when the full gravity of what he'd just done finally has time to sink in.]
I, uh...hope that was okay.
[She didn't pull away from him and had actually returned it, so it seems like it was a success.
Doesn't mean he feels any less like his head is on fire from how flushed he's gotten, though.]
