However careful she is off his clothes, Tetsuo has no such concerns preventing him from squeezing Shiho a little tighter in his arms in answer to that clearly pleased giggle. Really, he wouldn't feel that badly about it if they spent the whole "mission" cuddling in the elevator--except of course for not wanting to cramp her style or get her in trouble.
"E-.. eheheh, o-oi, you tryin'a get me distracted..?"
He grins bashfully and reddens, holding her a bit closer as if prompted by her talking about holding on to him tightly, and nuzzles into her hair softly. As if he weren't preoccupied with her even before she planted the thought of Biker Girl Shiho in his head again.
"...you'd make an amazin' biker chick, Shichan. I mean, you'd make an amazin' anythin' if y'wanted to."
After all, even besides her powers letting her take on whatever knowledge and skills a part might call for, he still regards her as basically a supermodel/actress/spy with the confidence to convince anyone that she belongs wherever she is. ...although he's also more inclined to imagine her elegant and seductive rather than scruffy and scrappy, but he has every confidence she could do that too, if she wants.
Shiho isn't about to tell him that he shouldn't squeeze her tight, not when they were in an elevator and no one was here to tell them what they should do.
"Hm, maybe? Is it working?"
She can (probably) smooth out his clothes again later! There's nothing that psychometry can't do (probably).
"You flatterer. Speaking of being an amazing anything if you wanted to... you're pretty amazing yourself, y'know?"
With a cheeky grin she walks her fingers up along his chest, her head tilted against his, "I mean, I like you when you're in your jacket but there's something nice about seeing you all dressed up like this."
With Shiho doing nothing at all to discourage him, Tetsuo just holds her close, laughing softly.
"Aheheh, c'mon, babe, when don't it work...?"
He's never quite sure what to say to her calling him amazing. Even if he likes to think he's pretty cool and good in a fight, he doesn't feel amazing to himself. It still makes his heart swell with affection for her, though, the way she somehow always seems him in such a flattering light, and he squeezes her a little tighter in his arms. To think of her calling him a flatterer...
That look she gives him and the coy touches just make him more bashful, acutely aware of how much amorous attention she's showering him with, and he grins, blushing anew.
"R-really...? I, uh... I mean it.. kinda feels a little weird... but I do like doin' stuff that's nice for ya..."
...especially if it also has her so openly admiring him and so very flirty and snuggly. Besides, it doesn't feel bad, just very different from his usual.
Shiho is happy to call him amazing as often as she needs to until it takes and he can feel that way as well. And since it seems to be working judging by the blush spreading on his cheeks she decides to cheerfully and shamelessly pile it on.
Her fingers make their way up to his jaw and she draws soft, affectionate circles with her thumb as she leans into him,
"Hm... then let's do this more often? I like the idea of Tetsu wanting to dress up for me. And in return I'll dress up for you. From head to toe, okay?"
And if she just so happens to also have something frilly and fun and sexy underneath those fancy clothes? Well, that would be for his eyes only anyway.
Tetsuo huffs softly at her fingers wandering, and leans a little into her touch, blushing that much more at the tender gesture and nuzzling her hand. He blinks at that suggestion, one hand rubbing softly between her shoulder, still holding her close.
"Ee..? ...eheheh, y'mean like... more job dates? Or...."
It takes him a moment longer to get what she means by "from head to toe," and he trails off, his blush brightening and sheepish grin growing wider. She's very much not talking about hats and shoes, judging by the way she's smiling at him.
"I uh.. I mean... ain't like you gotta.. bribe me or nothin', yanno."
He pauses a second, eyes flicking down to her lips and hand sliding down to stroke her lower back instead. He'd been behaving himself so well, and she had to go and subtly plant the seed a thought in his head, and now he's thinking about her in various sexy dresses, and the lingerie under them when she gets him alone and takes them off.
"...tho, uh... if y'wanted to.. that's a real good way..."
Shiho pouts even as her fingers curl against his cheek, the look in her eyes fond as she leans into him. Sure, a lot of their dates have been dates masquerading as work but sometimes she wants to go on a normal date like a normal girl would! But anything else she was going to say is interrupted as he catches her meaning and blushes.
She doesn't know how much more she could possibly like him, but he does seem determined as ever to test that limit by being absolutely adorable.
"It's not a bribe. I want to do it and it just so happens that I know you'd like it too. Maybe..."
Knowing she's being bad and caring are two different things and even if she knows she shouldn't she's still leaning her weight against him and whispering to him: "...you'd even like it so much that you won't be able to let go until the next morning?"
The grin she gives him is all gremlin as the elevator slows to a stop with a bright pinging sound to signal that they've arrived.
Tetsuo never really gets enough of that mischievous look she turns on him, especially with such fondness in her eyes. He doesn't need her pet powers of psychometry to tell she's enjoying herself, and almost certainly planning something that will get him happily flustered, one way or another. He's already thinking about how it's a little embarrassing that she sees the impulsive thoughts that pop in his head but also thrilling and heartwarming that she so clearly likes to get him thinking about her like that.
"Eheheh, I uh.. I do like not lettin' go of ya..."
He ducks closer to nuzzle at her cheek softly, followed by a tender little kiss, and he holds her a little tighter for a moment, not in any particular rush to let her go in this moment, either, no matter where they've arrived to.
"....really like thinkin'a you.. not wantin' me ta let go, too..."
Her smile goes from cheeky to soft as he nuzzles closer and she happily takes the opportunity to lean into him in return. She really does like him like this, the two of them just happily enjoying a moment together without a thought to anything else, and if he's not going to worry about getting out of here, she certainly won't. Shiho tucks herself close, hands sliding up his back so that she can hold him properly,
"Oh?"
She keeps her tone conversational, as she always does whenever she's being a gremlin, nuzzling the tip of her nose against his cheek, "Then should I make sure to tell you that? All night long?"
Anything else she might say though is interrupted by a wry, "Are you guys done in here?" Courtesy of one of the guys that had definitely helped Tetsuo with getting ready, a tall young man with hair tied back in a ponytail by the name of Kagari who definitely wasn't sure why Tetsuo had chosen the World's Most Terrifying Girl to be his girlfriend but had also wisely never voiced this thought out loud.
Shiho's only answer is a raise of an eyebrow at him, "And if we aren't?"
Though she is actually being good now and reaching down to take Tetsuo's hand again so they can go and do their job. Which was to party.
