[ It is indeed a plus that he doesn't smell like wet dog right now, as is the fact that he decided to brush his teeth apparently. As if there's ever a choice in the matter in Mitsuru's view.
They can absolutely be cool and professional about this - with their limbs stuck to surfaces via goo glue and a bunch of probably perverse amphibians staring at them. She's known him off and on since junior high/their first year of high school when the three of them were arguably even more awkward than they are now, when she still wore a sweater vest and a headband and thought that was acceptable for a bit there... That makes it a bit weird but nothing they can't handle. Now they just hide their awkwardness better. Usually.
Just like they're doing now, with this very close-mouthed kiss which Mitsuru returns in much the same sort of fashion: trying very hard not to breathe on him, or move her mouth or somehow accidentally let out any unexpected, weird noises that might give him a certain kind of impression. What if he thinks she's moaning or something? That won't make breakfast tomorrow really awkward anything.
But there is no moaning and it's all incredibly chill.
When Shinjiro pulls back, she stares. ]
...Are there mornings where you don't brush your teeth?
[ Logically, yes, there probably would be. Given his circumstances. But while he's here- there's really no excuse.
And this is all to say that it is totally easier to focus on nitpicking him over his possible lack of oral hygiene than the fact that her foot isn't entirely unstuck... Perhaps there's just a delay? The toads are just taking their time- ]
