[ spoilers: it is, in fact, so gay that even charles is having a hard time trying to explain it away. which he isn't, per se, just... postponing that crisis a little.
it is, however, the only crisis for him — he has exactly none over their joint hands, not as they walk over to the lantern station and not even when the attendant glances down at them in a way that's entirely obvious; if anything, it just makes him thread their fingers together, brushing his thumb up and down once, twice, as if to say, this is fine, i'm not letting go.
and maybe he'd have more of an opinion over the lanterns, in general, if he knew what they were for; as it is, though, he simply nods, reaching for a bundle of markers, first of all, since being able to write and draw on them seems like the obvious thing to do. there's other things on offer, too, but he figures they can add those when the base is finished... whatever that's going to be.
with a tug, he directs them to an empty spot (of which there are many, now, with how quiet the lantern-making station is) and furrows his brows as he looks at the lantern in junpei's hand. ] So... what do we do with it? Make it pretty?
