[closed] TREAT YO'SELF

[twostringsonebow]

WHO: Goro Akechi & Izumi Sena
WHERE: wherever they can get sushi
WHEN: 02/15
WHAT: THEY CAME BACK FROM HELL. THEY'RE HAVING SUSHI. and playing twenty questions, eventually
WARNINGS: will add as needed, if needed

[While the first thing he'd done when he'd gotten back in the afternoon was make chocolates for his friends and Akira, there's still a great deal of time between then and the night, when he and Akira plan to meet up for a nice date...

...so he texts Sena and asks him out for sushi, because sushi is a good in this world and fuck if they do not need something expensively tasty to wipe off the past week and a half. His treat.

Sure, the best sushi place in town closed down with the rest of the joint shit getting pushed together, but this place isn't that bad. It's just sort of standard. And off a conveyor belt, so it's not as high class as Goro'd like it to be for the most beautiful boys in the world (them) but it's fine, it's fine, anything tastes like heaven after hell.]

Ah... I don't think I've ever been so happy for the cold before. I'm sure the novelty will wear off, but it certainly was nice walking in it after being close to the mantle. Were you alright, Secchan? Such a drastic change in temperatures would give anyone a headache, but I was worried about you in particular.

Not at all, but did you know how I was really out of it these past few weeks, Akechin? I haven't... stopped thinking about him since the beginning of the month--

[ the heartstone in his bag shines on as he winces at the constant thought of makoto that can never go away from his mind. it's been affecting him nowadays, almost projecting on daisuke that one time until he remembered a baffling memory of makoto again. ]

Which is you shouldn't keep saying that to everyone. They should see what kind of person I am by themselves, without any bias whatsoever.

[ he does appreciate goro's help as always, but... b o y. ]

[twostringsonebow]

But--

[You are, though the words falter spectacularly at the sight of Sena still small. Goro puffs his cheeks out and eats some more, knowing that the Sena he's come to know isn't going to be the person that others might see. There's something else to address anyway.]

... I haven't been able to stop thinking about how lucky I am to have the friends I do, which I thought was odd but didn't think much else about it. And it only started recently? No sooner?

[adoringpast]

Recently?

[ headtilt ]

Don't you have any other friends before the app?

[twostringsonebow]

... There was Haru, but other than that, not really.

[friendless loser.]

[adoringpast]

[ ah...... ]

I had no one else but Otome either.

[ girls be lookin out for their model bffs ig ]

[twostringsonebow]

[damn dude]

Well. It's fine to be more or less friendless, in my opinion. There's no need to be surrounded by so many people, wouldn't you agree? Especially since people like us are more used to having a number of acquaintances over... actual friends.

[............ man that sounds pathetic.]

[adoringpast]

Yeah. For all we know, those people only befriended us for certain perks and good looks. It's normal to be suspicious.

[ on sena's case, at least. ]

But... I'm glad too, Akechin. That we met. Even if it took a long time to notice you for who you really are.

[twostringsonebow]

[goro knows that feel, don't worry. he didn't make friends in high school for that reason.]

My, you certainly are sentimental, aren't you Secchan? [just a lil tease!!] Though my feelings are the same. I can't imagine not having you in my life at this point; you've truly become one of the most important people in it.
