[ Takuto, as promised, did clean his already nice, small living space, and did have a little succulent by his window. A little friend that requires no real fuss. Other than that, he's sitting outside on the walkway by his place, eating a cream bun and watching people walk by. He's in loose, comfy clothing; his after-work, laying-around-uselessly look. All comfy and likely warm and cuddly. ]

[ It took Atsushi a little bit of time before finally making it over to Takuto's place. He spotted him outside the building and gave him a gentle wave when he started getting close enough. Much like Takuto, Atsushi was in clothes that were more comfortable than what he wore when he was doing his jobs and everything. ]

You decided to see me in?

Well, yeah. And it's nice out! And I was doing some message... stuff.

-- hang on.

[ He left his apartment door unlocked, so he pushes it open and grabs a big, well-insulated cup from inside. He holds it out to senpai, grinning. ]

Should be drinkable.

Should be, huh?

[ He snorted softly at that and reached out for the drink. ]

Thank you, Takuto.

I mean not too hot, you butt.

[ He shook his head, frowning. Come on, believe in your kouhai. ]

[ He gives him a playful smile before sipping from the cup. He let out a soft noise, savoring the flavor before giving him a thumbs up with his free hand. ]

[ He makes one back. ]

Hey, what kind of work do you even do? I can imagine you as a librarian...

[ He takes another sip before letting out a soft noise of enjoyment. He was really good at making these things. ]

Mmm? Well I don't really have a full time job. I usually just take on tasks throughout the month.

Ohhh, a freelancer! I dunno, I like being kept busy. And having some routine, rather than... worrying. Some stuff on there, I'm not sure I'll be good at.

Normally I enjoy routine as well, and not wanting to fret about this and that, but En-chan brought up a concern with me about wanting to help out more, so I guess in a way I felt like if he had a full time job instead of me it might ease his worry?

-- sorry, are you a couple with him?

[ BECAUSE THAT SOUNDED LIKE SOME COUPLEY SHIT WITH CONCERN OVER FINANCES. ]

[ Atsushi gave him a surprised look. ]

Eeeeh? You're the second person to ask me that! No, we're not a couple.

[ Hmm. ]

Roommates? Life partners?

We'd be roommates. It's easier to just live together instead of either of us traveling all the way to another home.

Yeah, but when you describe your financial decisions together like that... that's... what mature couples do...

A-ah... it's not really like that. He just felt like he wasn't helping at all. Like I did everything.

Okay, okay. I won't ask again.

[ He has a feeling they're gonna get married and their spouses are gonna feel like these two are more married than they are. Yeesh. ]

[ Classic Corey and Shawn right here??? ]

We've just been friends for a long while. That's why we seem so close.

Mmm, you told me. He seems okay, if not... a person who moves at his own pace. Which is fine.

[ he takes another sip from his cup, Mmm he'd have to come visit Takuto while he was working from now on for more drinks like this. ]

Yeah, that's pretty much En.

[ That comes with Takuto's little fanclub of NPCs in the Steambucks watching him work and flirting with him... and they'll probably get excited another pretty boy is there to see him. #juststardriverthings ]

Yusuke is kinda like that, in a way. They both come off as being on a different level from other people. It's... hard for me, I'm a simple kinda guy.

Once you're around that type of person enough, they get easier to read. I've known En since middle school.

I just left middle school... so I'm kinda starting over. You're graduated already, right? I seem to have real adults as senpai, here.

A-ah... well almost. If I were back home right now, graduation is right around the corner, but since I'm here, I'm technically still a third year.

What are you gonna study in college? I bet you'd do good with kids... or like, a public servant.
