current stuck point on firelight: let's do the "V-J in Times Square" only 100% consensual re both kissing and photography and trying to modulate the passion level for setting and audience bc these characters can't get lost in it like they want to (for fear that if they do, another previously overlooked threat will jump them while they're distracted) but don't want to appear like they're concerned about any further threats (bc if they've actually run out of enemies for now then no point worrying the onlookers) and do want to get attention off their friends but maybe not their families' attention even though the two of them have a total of five siblings watching in person and probably two or three parents watching on the news. oh and the only previous time I can remember writing these two characters kissing, it was, for reasons, brief.
yes that's too many moving parts.
on the other hand, the bits after the kiss should be easier than I thought, I just have to remember that the best place to hide something is in plain sight. which is to say, I don't need to figure out how to cover for the very visible putting up the illusion after all, not if I have a good enough excuse for putting up an illusion, and then I can just leave the illusion up and have the very visible dropping the illusion be part of the illusion while the illusion is serving its actual purpose of providing cover for people to get offstage unnoticed.
