Serafall: W-What?!"

Zeoticus: "Oh..umm??"

Azazel: "Ugh..Uhhh..?

Everyone renders speechless at Ayanokōji's unexpected suprise of a statement. Rias can't believe it herself, as she's almost too stunned to speak. Her entire face starts glowing a boiling red, not only from embarrassment, but just raw anger.

Rias: (A-Ayanokōji....what...the....hell are you doing? First you grab me......and now you say this?)

Serafall: "Ahh....wait up. I'm a little confused. So are you two like....dating?" ~ (Serafall asks sounding genuinely uncertain)

Rias attempts to utter out a word.

Rias: "N-No i-its...it's not like-"

Ayanokōji: "Let me finish the President's phrase for her. She's obviously a bit embarrassed. Yes, but It's not like it's that big a deal, we're really just practicing the wedding vows, but in all honesty we're not really planning for marriage. Just pure unadulterated love."

Zeoticus raises an eyebrow, clearly surprised by Ayanokōji's bold declaration.

Rias: "Wait, hold on a second! Ayanokōji, what are you saying? We're not actually dating!"

Ayanokōji: "I apologize, President. I just thought it would be best to play along for now, considering the circumstances."

Rias: "But still, making up a bold statement like this out of nowhere..."

Ayanokōji: "It seemed like the best way to divert their attention from the topic at hand. We can discuss the details later."

Rias: "Discuss the details my ass!"

Zeoticus: "Ahem! I see... Well, that's quite the revelation, isn't it?"

Azazel leans back, crossing his arms with a smirk playing on his lips.

Azazel: "Right, it seems we stumbled upon quite the unexpected development here."

Serafall tilts her head, looking at Rias and Ayanokōji with a mixture of confusion and amusement.

Serafall: "So, are you two really in love, or is this just some kind of act, Rias?"

Rias finally finds her voice, her cheeks still flushed with embarrassment.

Rias: (Damnit, why do I have to say this) "It's... it's not an act. I mean, Ayanokōji, he just... surprised me."

Ayanokōji nods, his expression calm and collected.

Zeoticus: "Ayanokōji, Rias, while your words are reassuring, actions speak louder than words. So we need tangible proof of your relationship."

Rias: "W-what?"

Azazel: "Exactly, a simple kiss would dispel any doubts. It's a small request for the sake of clarity."

Serafall: "I hate to press the issue, but we need assurance. A demonstration of affection would provide that."

Rias hesitates, feeling uncomfortable with the sudden shift of the suggestion. She glances at Ayanokōji, silently pleading for an alternative solution.

Rias: "I understand your concerns, but a kiss feels... intrusive. Maybe there's another way to prove our relationship."

But her objections fall on deaf ears as the others press on, convinced that a kiss is the only way to confirm the truth.

Zeoticus: "Rias, your reluctance to comply is concerning. Are you hiding something from us?"

Azazel: "That's right, it does seem suspicious that you're so hesitant to demonstrate your supposed affection."
