BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEP

[deontology]

[he doesn't even bother to respond to those texts.

He just silences his phone and goes to greet Tenka at the front desk.

And he looks so unamused, though he'll at least take some of the things from him so he's not carrying it all.]

[sunshrouded]

[This is your life now, Sousei.

Though honestly Tenka doesn't look even a little bit guilty... Whoops....

So he's just going to grin.]

Took you long enough!

Hungry?

[did you miss the 6 times he told you not to visit, tenka]

[deontology]

No.

[Actually, he might be... it's definitely lunch time, but. He's saying it to be contrary at this point. TENKA WHY.]

Now leave. You're being trouble.

[and he doesn't want to be mocked for his "match".]

[sunshrouded]

That's nothing new, is it?

[Yeah, no he's not going.]

C'mon. You gotta eat or else Kiiko's gonna yell at me. [And you might think that he's being considerate but then he follows that up with-]

And can I see your phone?

[deontology]

No.

[UGH TENKA STOP.

Except Sousei just turns on his heel to find a better place to eat than surrounded by all of these robots.]

You have your own. You don't need mine.

[sunshrouded]

[TENKA NEVER STOPS.

And he's following after just like when they were kids.]

Aww c'mon! We can have a laugh together! We can trade!

[he's a lot less embarrassed than sousei is]

[deontology]

[HE'S NOT EMBARRASSED OKAY.... it's just really, really dumb.

When he finds a satisfactory place, he just sighs, settling himself on the floor (of course) and glancing over Tenka's food choices.

....well.]

At least it isn't all packaged. [Those packaged things were weird. Doritos? Never again.

he's ignoring the phones thing.]

[sunshrouded]

[No, he probably got some of those things from the market that are prepared 'fresh daily' with rice. Because Tenka listens sometimes and honestly Sousei should eat. There's probably even fish and stuff.

But then he's plopping himself on the floor and honestly helping himself to the food without hesitation.

And ignoring Sousei's attempt to ignore him-]

So who's your perfect match? When do I get to meet them? Do you think Kiiko would approve?

[deontology]

[Thank you, Tenka. Sometimes you are actually useful. Rice and fish and fresh food... it's almost like home, except that everything is so foreign still.

But at least the chopsticks are the same.

And with a faint sigh, Sousei just passes over his phone.]

You are aware that they're obviously all lies about us. [Don't be ridiculous.]

[sunshrouded]

Yeah, probably.

[But then Tenka's totally taking Sousei's phone anyway. He's sliding his own phone over because he did say that he'd offer.

And then he's casually eating and scrolling to find the message.

And then there's this unfortunate grrhk!! noise.

And then he's choking.]

[deontology]

[r u ok there tenka

Sousei doesn't even bother to pick up Tenka's phone.

Instead, he placidly and calmly eats his food, eyes closed.

Phone, what phone. Embarrassing message, what embarrassing message.]

[sunshrouded]

[COUGH

HACK

GROSS CHOKING NOISES

I HOPE THIS IS RUINING THE TASTE OF YOUR FOOD]

[deontology]

[OH MY GOD TENKA

ARE YOU FIVE]

Are you finished? [:V]

[sunshrouded]

[now he's actually properly clearing his throat and]

Do you want me to apologize for choking-

Or would it be more endearing to you if it was a hairball?

[cats????]

[deontology]

[um he's not saitou.]

It would be more endearing if you would eat your food properly, instead of making a fuss over nothing.

[sunshrouded]

Lucky for us both I'm not interested in being endearing to you.

[to be quite honest. anyway he's going to drink some of the tea he brought. because of course he brought tea and is pouring two cups and giving one over to sousei

it was probably meant to lessen the following mockery]

So.... when did you start liking cats?

[deontology]

I don't have any interest in cats.

[OBVIOUSLY...... Sousei's eyes do flick to the phone in Tenka's hand before he picks up his tea instead.]

If anything, it is a joke at that man's expense, not mine.

[sunshrouded]

[which inspires another very important line of questioning-]

What do you think yours says?

[deontology]

I have no idea. It would be more concerning if I did, I think.

[Finally, he reaches down to pick up Tenka's phone and read about his match.]

...Hm.

[sunshrouded]

Do you think it says that you're obsessed with cats too?

[But really Tenka doesn't hesitate to let Sousei read his.]

I've never even met the guy in mine though. [a very put out sigh] Why couldn't I get a cute girl....?

[deontology]

[...]

You don't deserve to have a cute girl in situations like these, if that's your first thought.

[sunshrouded]

Since when do you get to decide who I deserve?!

[deontology]

I'm just assisting people who wouldn't know how to put up with you.

[you're welcome]

[sunshrouded]

Keep your assisting to yourself!
