.:Final Night Under the Stars (Week 3 Curfew):.

[hjadningavig]

[ There are beads on top of a table with some typical fabric string from studio.

In case someone wants to do some very basic art stuff. ]

Comments

[ohiganbana]

Definitely not.

[ unless it was asahi zero. ]

Oh, are you interested? I'm not telling, but I will show you.

[aspirings]

[Sounds dangerous... his eyes narrow a little, but.

He falls into this trap every time.]

Fine then! Now you've got me curious! So show me what you can do, Raikou!

[ohiganbana]

[ pulls out a string! ]

Do you want me to demo first, or do you know how to play?

[aspirings]

I know how to play.

[Like, more or less? He still looks bemused at how someone can have this be a specialty.]

So we can begin whenever.

[ohiganbana]

Then let's start!

[ i am not figuring out how to write meta involving cat's cradle but let it be known that raikou does not need to look at his hands, is smooth enough to pick up on any stumbling tsukasa might have, and at the end as a flourish produces a jacob's ladder with ease. ]

[aspirings]

[The last time Tsukasa played cat's cradle was probably early middle school when Saki was in the hospital still.

So he's pretty clumsy and rusty, despite having otherwise very dexterous fingers.

And after Raikou has thoroughly showed off, he's just left squinting down at that jacob's ladder with a scowl that's more pouty than anything.]

Hm... so that's what you meant...

[ohiganbana]

I'm good with my hands.

[ he says this with a slightly devious grin.

is this flirting in front of everyone's salad or is he simply being a peacock? 🤔🤔🤔 ]

[aspirings]

[It's probably both.

Luckily for the curfew group, Tsukasa does not completely process it.]

Apparently so...! Have you practiced?

[ohiganbana]

Of course. I used to play it with Raimei all the time when we were younger. And I just like utilizing string too. [ he'll move his hand up to where tsukasa's bracelet is and tap it with a smile. ]

[aspirings]

Hm... I suppose that's true. You're obviously really skilled with them.

[In all sorts of ways.]

My skills lie more with a thread and needle, rather than strings themselves.

[ohiganbana]

I think your hobbies are more useful than mine. It makes me feel lucky ♫. [ this is true! but he's also trying to lighten the mood. ]

[aspirings]

[He snorts in light amusement at that, a hand propped on his hip.]

Theoretically, I suppose so! In practice, most of what I sew are our stage costumes. I can't recall if I've ever made normal clothing before.

[ohiganbana]

I hear scarfs are easy to make. Hats too, but then they limit the hairstyles that are feasible...

[ #priorities. ]

[aspirings]

[Very Raikou priorities.

Also, with amusement:]

Are you trying to get me to sew you something, or knit you something?

[Those are classic knitting projects, Raikou... he's sure he could sew a hat or a scarf but. He's endeared.]

[ohiganbana]

[ wow??? ]

Neither! And now I'll tell you that you don't need to make me anything.




[ though he would like it very much if tsukasa did o///o. ]

[aspirings]

I already told you that I am! It's nearly finished, but you'll have to be a little more patient.

[Given [gestures in murdergame]]

[ohiganbana]

I wasn't being impatient. [ poking him in the cheek! and then pressing a kiss to his lips right after. ]

[aspirings]

[Cute... the kiss means he doesn't even puff up about the cheek poke.]

I'm aware. You've tried to tell me I don't need to every time it's come up.

[Even though he's obviously going to anyway.]

But I can hardly allow you to spoil me without giving you something in return. Especially given we'll be apart after this for at least a little while.

[ohiganbana]

[ ah...his expression softens, raikou pulling tsukasa over to somewhere they can sit together. ]

But we're still together right now, so let's make the most of it. [ for the both of them! it's not time for dramatic gay goodbyes yet. ]

[aspirings]

[Tsukasa hums lightly in response to that, obediently following to sit.]

Very true! I'm not ready to say goodbye either, for what it's worth.

[Hm... different subject...]

So you chose the library to rearrange it like this... it's a good idea.

[ohiganbana]

I had a few more ideas if the library was occupied, but this is the easiest I think.

[ wrapping an arm around him with a light hum. ]

And since I can't stay up or wake up, I'll be sleeping with you before midnight.

[aspirings]

Oh, alright.

[He's not going to complain, honestly; it's cozier that way. Even though he understood why Raikou would want to keep watch instead, he's glad for this.]

We can sleep when we're tired, then... I don't exactly feel ready for sleep myself yet.

[Given the Anxiety.]

[ohiganbana]

When we're tired but not too late. I don't want to wind up in a funny position and half asleep on a pile of books.

[ the anxiety... he can't make tsukasa into a noodle in public so he opts for a quick nuzzle instead. ]

Just a few weeks ago you wouldn't even accept my jacket.

[ heheh. ]

[aspirings]

Well, yes! That's because I thought you were trying to give it to me at the cost of your own sleeping arrangements!

[Nuzzling is cute... Tsukasa will just lean against Raikou comfortably.]

Which is exactly what happened, by the way! [But he knows now that Raikou never intended on sleeping at all.]

[ohiganbana]

Is that so? Well now I can confess that I would have slept with you then too, if I didn't think I needed to stay awake.

[ this should not be a surprise considering you know, their bedding arrangements. but! this has nothing to do with that.

please understand how he was doomed from week one- ]
