[ It strikes him as strange, that Percival tenses and grows nervous now, when they were closer than they'd ever been before both last night and in this moment. The notion seems simple enough, unless he is misunderstanding.
Perhaps he is misunderstanding? Siegfried had assumed that Percival meant this would happen again, which Siegfried had taken as a certainty. But maybe he means partners in a romantic sense.
Which... Siegfried isn't sure he'd ever be ready for. Not that Percival isn't a worthy romantic partner, but Siegfried cannot promise himself to anyone when he was still a man incapable of entrusting anyone but himself, and a man who tomorrow may not be a man any longer.
He's overthinking it. Whatever sense Percival means, he doesn't want to disappoint that cute flushed face.
He would follow the other's cue.
Siegfried cups the other's chin in his hand and raises it out of hiding, giving him a soft kiss on the lips. ]
It's alright. You just surprised me. Partners it is, then.

[ YOLO ]
It's going to take a while to get used to.
