If you see me on the news getting arrested for doing something weird in public, at least you can know that I got the square.

[ Of course he doesn't really think the yoga thing will get him arrested or he wouldn't do it, but the Munch & Crunch people are probably going to be pretty fed up with yoga by the end of the month. ]

That... makes sense. I feel kind of stupid for just doing the bingo without really thinking about it or what it's contributing to but there's got to be a reason, huh? [ Not that he blames Yosuke for that; if anything it's the opposite. ]

Don't worry about it, but if you are, it'll be evened out if I end up getting a job here. And yeah, that's probably for the best. Do you need to tell anybody you're going out or is this all right?

[ Again, glad to help but not if it gets Yosuke fired. ]

[youraffection]

At least you wouldn't be the only one.

[ To think that about 6 months ago the things they're doing right now would probably be newsworthy. But nope, not anymore. Not with how the world is turning upside down. ]

Yeah. That's what I keep telling myself, at least. I wouldn't write off Jim being into it for shits and giggles, but there's so much that's fishy going on...

[ He sure hopes that there's more reason to it. Otherwise he's going to feel like an idiot. ]

I was just rounding up stray carts in the parking lot, so it's not like they expect me in the store right now.

[ They're kind off of to the side now, with few cars. Yosuke looks back and forth. ]

Alright, hop in!

[chuusai]

Nah, jail'd probably be pretty crowded, which is why it should be fine.

[ He's pretty sure from talking to his brother that the cops have better things to do, too, but you never know. ]

I never thought it was all a joke, not really, but it does seem pretty suspicious. Even if it is busy work, it could be a distraction from something else they're doing. That'd made sense.

[ It could've been just a game and that's sort of how Mao saw it until just now. Doesn't mean he's going to stop with his card but it's got a different feel to it now.

Even though Yosuke led them somewhere relatively out of the way, Mao still copies that gesture in looking around before he hops into the cart. It takes a little maneuvering for him to get seated but he manages it, squeezed up tightly in the body of the cart. ]

There we go. Go for it!

[youraffection]

[ Has he met Mako? Mao should meet Mako. Yosuke basically became friends with the guy after Mako threatened to arrest him. It was fun. (It wasn't fun, at least for Yosuke.) ]

Yeah...well, I guess we'll just have to hope that the worst they can do is make fun of our results here.

[ Famous last words right there. Remind him of this after August, buddy.

Still, the cart thing is the kind of thing that would objectively be fun if Yosuke didn't work at Freshens. He might find it a little exciting, though. They're definitely too old for this, but oh well. Time to go all out! ]

Alright, hold on!

[ And OFF they go! Yosuke starts running, needing a bit of a build up, but once he gets a good speed, the weight of the cart along with the force of his run really pick up speed. ]

[chuusai]

[ Mako sounds like a treat. Mao's not keen to test the limits of the Recolle PD's nepotism tolerance. ]

That's my hope now, yeah. Send some embarrassing videos around the office, maybe slip some pictures into the yearbook next year and leave it at that.

[ Not even Mao is naive enough to think that's all it's going to be, though, not anymore.

Mao braces his hands on the edge of the cart as they start to take off and hey, with the momentum of the two of them they're actually picking up some pretty decent speed! ]
