Naoko had never been good with explanations. Sometimes she wound up making things a lot worse than they had been. Maybe, though, maybe she actually did a good this time? Maaaybe it was clear enough for Otohime to understand?
Nah, not at all. Naoko wasn't expecting to get pulled in for another kiss and she also wasn't expecting this one to last for far longer. A plethora of thoughts raced through Naoko's mind, an almost overwhelming amount, and the girl more or less became a limp noodle when Otohime pulled back. No, really, she flopped forward against the sukeban, face redder than it ever had been before. Did she fry the girl...?

Otohime was quite proud of herself! She'd immediately understood something! This "kissing" stuff was kinda neat, actually!
When Nao flopped against her, unmoving, she quickly got worried again, tho.
"uuuuh, dude, dude, you're ok?"
Her face was red, and she was all limp, oh no!
"Oh fuck, you're overheating! Stay with us, come on!"
She then let go of her and kept her leaning against her body while scooping up water from the pond and rubbing it against Nao's cheeks and forehead, trying to cool her down.
It still had not dawned on her that maybe, just maybe, Nao was not overheating, but was rather having a moment.

Naoko was quiet for a few moments before Otohime had asked if she was okay. "Uh...Y-Yeah, I'm f-fineish...?" Her brain was kind of fried. A little bit. She was indeed having a moment. The water was really unnecessary, to the point where Naoko feeeebly brought her hands up to cover her face. "Quit iiiit...Uh...I might need a few moments..."
If allowed, Naoko would take a few deep breaths. "...That was largely...unexpected." She began. And promptly trailed off. Shit, what else was there to say? Or do? Taking yet another deep breath, Naoko decided to play this as straight as she could. "That was not only my first kiss but I wasn't...really expecting you to kiss me at all and...I enjoyed it? I...ah...I suck at this..."

Otohime was relieved when Naoko came to again!
"Ah, yer back, thank goodness! I was worried ya were gone for good!"
She listened to Naoko's explanation. Oh, so she didn't expect this? And this was her first kiss? And she liked it?
Well, the significance of the -first- kiss flew over her head, but the fact that she liked it delighted her!
"Oh, ya liked it? Awesome! Makin' pals happy is one of my three favourite things, after kicking dipshits in the gut and Teach's melonpan! Want another?"
No teasing, no romance, just pure, innocent cheer in Otohime's voice. She was -definitely- unaware of the significance of what she had done.

"...I don't...think you can die from that. At least, not that easily." Naoko nodded. She genuinely didn't know how much of this was flying over Otohime's head or not, but she seemed to be gathering something from it which was a lot better than nothing, truth be told. "...Hey, I like making my friends happy too." Naoko smiled. "And of course I'd want another, silly."
She was calm. That was a welcome change. God knows what calmed her down but it was way better than earlier, that's for sure.
Little did anyone know that Naoko was increeedibly confused as to what just happened. Sure, she just kissed and got kissed by Otohime like...twice, but what was going on -now?-

"Hahaha, we really are two edamame in a pod! Makin' friends happy is the best thing!"
Otohime smiled wide again, all hints of insincerity gone.
"Eh? Ya do want another one? After you almost died? Well, ok!"
And so, Otohime gave Naoko another kiss, believing that Naoko meant that she wanted another kiss rather than another melonpan!. Nothing fancy, just a simple touching of lips. Nothing special for the girl. If anything, it was just like hanging out or playing video games, a way to show you like your friends!
Soon after, she pulled back.
"Are ya feelin' better now, Nao?

A pretty apt statement, really. Despite the differences in intelligence and upbringing, both girls seemed to have similar motivations as to why they do the things they did. Though, it was worth noting that when Naoko said she wanted another...
She meant the melon bread, not a kiss. So, when Otohime leaned in and gave her another kiss, Naoko simply froze up again, staring...at something. It was unclear whether it was at Otohime or the air but the sukeban seemed to have been the cause of it this time.
When she pulled away, Naoko just remained quiet for a few seconds. More than a few seconds. She didn't look like she was going to faint but she wasn't exactly sure what to say to -that- either. Eventually, she just nodded. A lot.

Otohime was all smiles.
"Awesome! Now that yer feelin' better, lemme treat ya! The local bakery's started to make chocolate croissants! I have no fuckin' clue what a croissant is but man does it sound delicious! Come on!"
She hopped up, gently pulled Nao to her feet, and then pulled her along by the hand in the same gentle manner. She didn't want to hurt her, after all.
First kissing, now handholding. And yet, Otohime was utterly clueless. To her, this was just normal friendship fun. She didn't even have a -concept- of romance, much less romance between two same-gender people.

"A croissant is a type of pastry--It's name's actually a french word that I'm pretty sure is just crescent. You know, like...the moon sometimes." Naoko tried to explain, once more as she was pulled up, before she very swiftly got silenced by Otohime grabbing her hand.
What was even going on at this point? Had Otohime been somehow playing her and was actually smart/trying to seduce her or something? How was she managing to pull all these gestures off like that? Did Naoko actually die earlier and this was some weird kind of limbo? What?
"Hey, uh...How come you're...leading me along like this...? What gives?"

"Eh? A pastry? Sounds amazing! I can't wait to try it!"
She kept pulling, but then she stopped, baffled by Nao's question. She actually had to think for a while, trying to comprehend it.
"Eh? Why I am leadin' you along like that? Well, I know the way, and you dont, aint that right? An' if I pull ya by the hand ya wont get lost in this suburban labyr...lab...la...confusing place! Come on, let's get to the pastries before they get cold!"
She then pulled her along once more. Nothing in her reply got Nao any closer to tell if this was on purpose or not. Sure, she radiated that innocent goodwill, but maybe that is faked, too...

"No, no, like....all of the kissing and the holding hands and..." Naoko's cheeks turned red right when she realized that Otohime had a point. Freshly made didn't stay freshly made for long so they had to move fast. "...That's fair...Um..." She followed along with Otohime. Indeed, she was still very uncertain as to what was genuine and what was not.
But she did feel like Otohime was at least acting on goodwill. That's something the girl always could be relied on for. Yet she couldn't even figure out if it was just goodwill or actual...well...attraction of sorts?
Tis also worth noting that Naoko looked incredibly flustered. "...H-How far off are we from the pastry shop?"

Otohime looked genuinely confused. What about the kissing and hand-holding...?
"Eh? That's all jus' stuff you do with people ya like, innit! And I like ya, Nao, yer the bestest bud one can have!"
Her smile was wide and...just as innocent as before. Was Otohime that good at playing with her...or was she just that dumb? It was really hard to tell!
Soon, they reached the pastry shop in question.
"It's right here! Come on, let's stuff our faces with some good baked shite!"
She stormed in, pushing the door back far so Nao could enter behind her. She was already browsing the pastries when Nao came in.

In all honesty it seemed like Otohime was inadvertently playing Naoko like a damn fiddle. But...the flustered girl managed to give Otohime a smile right back at her and squeezed her hand. "...I like you too." She said. Quietly. Upon reaching the pastry shop, she followed Otohime in right as she stormed through the door.
This was entirely for the sake of minimizing any potential casualties, really. Trailing after her, Naoko stopped to look at the pastries. "...You know, aside from melon bread...I never asked what sort of pastries you like...Anyways, where are those croissants...?"
It took all of five seconds of looking through the sweets for Naoko to just walk over to the front desk and inquire, quite simply, "Hey, got any freshly baked croissants? Uh...Can't seem to find it and my friend's having a hard time too."

Otohime looked up from the chocolate cornets and grinned.
"I like all kindsa pastries! Sweet stuff is the tits, lemme tell ya! Anzu pancakes are great, too!"
She then turned back to the pastries, looking over the wide variety with the same big grin.
The woman at the counter looked at Nao, nodded, and pointed out the croissants to her. Indeed, they had them in all variations! Savory ones with cheese, sweet ones with chocolate...They had the pick of the lot here.
Otohime's choice was easy, however.
"Oh, I wanna have the chocolate ones, they look deeeelicious!"

Th...The tits? Naoko kind of blinked a few times at that statement before she gulped. "...Yep! I like sweet things too." Huh, Otohime also liked pancakes? Noted. The thing that they had come this way for was also right in plain sight--the chocolate croissants. Naoko tapped Otohime's shoulder, before whispering. "Those were the ones we came for, right? Of course we wanna have them!"
She felt like that was a good thing to say at the very least. The girl spoke again, this time way more audible. "I'd like the chocolate ones too."
Super duper simple and easy! Naoko got to fishing around for some yen to pay for the croissants when prompted.
