[ CLOSED ]

WHERE: RAMEN restaurant, walking the streets.
WHEN: March 10th.
WHAT: Fallout of Yukine's death.
WARNINGS: None.
CLOSED: AFTERNOON. THE HIEROPHANT SOCIAL LINK OPENS. ( Akira Kurusu )
Welcome back, Akira.
[ He offers a small wave as he sees a familiar face. ] Or should I simply say "welcome" since you are entering my shop. [ His head turns as he chuckles at nothing in particular. The afternoon lull has hit the restaurant; he won't be seeing anyone for an hour or so. ] I thought I would see your -- [ Kei steps out from the kitchen to continue with his repertoire with the young man before pausing to look at him. ]
... a seventy-five percent discount seems more than fair today. But I can't say that I'm pleased about having to give out such a cut in prices. [ Despite the joke, his tone is calm, serious. He breathes in slow as he reminds himself of what he has come to realize about himself. Why did you come here, Akira? You came while I am still myself, I won't deny it. The obligations that I feel I owe you are one that I shall ask to help you, but you should have chosen better. ]
What's happened?
CLOSED: EVENING/NIGHT. PENANCE. ( Shouto Todoroki )
[ The first day that Shouto came to work, Kei felt a weight so heavy that his chest actually hurt for most of the afternoon. However, since the teenager was present, he was not going to allow the time Shouto was using to be wasted. He sent him to work (busing tables, collecting dishes, running the till -- and honestly with how Kei manages money, it is a blessing to have someone else do it). Kei felt it was the least he could do to help someone drowning in uncertainty about their future.
Yet when he was wishing him goodbye, Kei could only think: I hope you found this entire experience to be dull and boring. I hope you hated it so much that you will not come back tomorrow.
And so, on March 10th, Kei actually feels a sense of relief when Shouto did not show up. He does not contact him, and instead busies himself with his restaurant. You probably got busy with something for your mother, hm? In short, he sees no reason to remind the young man that he should be at the shop. He cannot hope that Shouto forgets to come in, and remind him of his obligation in the same breath, after all.
The day came to a close with only a small incident in the afternoon. I should not call it an incident when someone comes asking me for help, but it certainly feels like it. Most of the cleaning is finished; ingredients put away for tomorrow. Register mostly balanced -- a miracle in and of itself; Shouto probably did a better job the day before. Kei feels things are acceptable. Lights off, door locked, he turns to head home only to find Shouto standing a few feet from the now closed door. ]
Oh. [ His shoulders drop. ] You need not feel guilty about not coming into work. You must have gotten wrapped up in something important, which makes sense to me. And anyway, I was in no dire straits. [ I would rather only exist in this space without upsetting your life, and hope you come to forget me. He steps forward, pocketing his keys as he offers a smile. The smile fades slightly as he feels a heavy burden surrounding the young man. ]
