mid-decemberish after rei gets back, mid patara ??

[youkoso]

senakun
this is your number isnt it
i believe ive tried messaging you some number of times already but
i may have accidentally been messaging others with similar names by mistake
so its taken some time to reach you
unless this is once again the incorrect contact
this device being so small isnt the easiest on the eyes

[obsessiveness]

You could've asked around for my number, you know. I'm sure Ousama or even Mikejima would've given it to you without question. And you can adjust the display settings on the phone to make the text look bigger, but

Anyways, what is it? It's been a while since I last saw you, come to think of it.

1/2 backdates gentle

[espansivo]

what's it mean if you don't have any dreams on new years
sena
sena sena
senaaaaaaaaaaaaa sena senaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
sena
is it bad luck or whatever luck
also what if you just like
didn't sleep on new year's at all
and i forgot to mention this a little earlier but i'm living in a nice house now..♪
come over~ we're still kinda unpacking but i wanna see you~

[he

needs to give sena the address but that hasn't occurred to him right off.]

[obsessiveness]

You... just don't have dreams on New Year's? Well, I guess you need to make do since there are no temples here...

But you're moving? To where?

[ izumi's still handling his own paperwork before he can move away somewhere but wow, what a coincidence. ]

[espansivo]

i guess~ i'm gonna take it as "you do you" sorta thing
and someplace
hold on

[he. has to physically go outside and look. please.

but he'll send an address that is Very Carefully typed down after a bit.]

bring a house warming gift ♪ aspe and taku'll appreciate it~

[obsessiveness]

[ those must be his housemates... and fellow contracts. mmmmmmmmm. ]

Okay, I'll be there in an hour.

[ right, time for some impromptu shopping; he's almost done with the paperwork anyway.

fast-forward to an hour later and he arrives at the townhouse leo's indicated in his text in his bike, off he goes to ring the bell. hey bae he's here with a small box? ]

It's a chai tea kit, in case you're wondering. I've had enough of coffee for a while, so here you go.

[espansivo]

[that's all well and good, sena, but leo's gonna swing his arms around you and nuzzle into you with a sigh.]

Mm~. My battery's recharging..♪ [oh. there's something that smells sorta good. leo lifts his head, staring over at the box.] Nn? Sena~, what've you got there~?

[he

he just

hm]

[obsessiveness]

[ aaaaa at least he's literally not jumping into his arms this time. he coulda dropped the kit... ]

It's a chai tea-- Just get off of me, Leo-kun! This is no way of treating your guest?!

[ don't make him repeat himself??? let him just try to pry leo off with the back of his collar, god. ]

[espansivo]

[nnN NNONO.... NO..!!!! HE IS CLINGING SO MUCH WITH A MRRRING SOUND. AND A WHINE.]

But whyyyy~! Seeenaaaa, lemme hug you a little longer, then I'll behave, promise!

[cmon... just a lil bit.... like five minutes--]

[obsessiveness]

Why are you acting liken a cat now?! At your new house of all places when you should let me in first?! Sooooooo~o annoying!!

[ but he gives up and drops his hand from leo's back, sighing as his king takes advantage of his tired kindness. he... does love this kind of attention though, he's not going to lie. ]

[espansivo]

[ah, good. immediately leo buries in further, like it's been weeks since he last saw sena and not like a few days since they had their general hangout/date time. mm..♪]

You smell good as usual, Sena... Mm, it's not qui~te the same, but it reminds me of home. [really, that's why all of this.

leo steps away, but he's still taking sena's hand to pull him inside; it's very nice, and there's still boxes lying here and there unopened. for the most part it's settled, but. there is work to do. many plants.] Little John's, um, sleeping~. I have to talk to Mahounen about her, actually...

[... hm... maybe he should mention it to him today...]

They'll definitely like the chai, by the way, Taku's home is pretty similar to ours, so he's tea drinker too. ♪

[obsessiveness]

[ hhh, leo can't just. say that shit to him and not expecting any sort of reaction, because there's a tiny pang in his chest at the mention of home and being associated with that, and all izumi can do is return the snuggling embrace with one hand and take a deep whiff of him.

and he's pulling away, his hand held as he's led inside. the interiors are tasteful, and the rooms are bigger compared to the loft apartment izumi's going to move in after a few days. overall, not bad. ]

Hopefully she's not sick from all the food you've been feeding to her.

[ stop feeding her table scraps!!!! she's Royalty ]

I know Aspen, but who is this Taku you keep mentioning? You can't keep prattling names and expect me to know all of them; this is a huge city.

[espansivo]

Taku's... Um, Takumi. He does archery and I met him my first day here during orientation~. You'd like him! He's practical and grounded.

[as... leo assume anyone would like anyone if they get along with him. but sena really would like takumi, just ignore the hair color that leo apparently surrounded himself with.]

And she's not sick! She's pregnant! I think.

[he thinks.]

I ki~nda remember how she was before, see, and it's sort of the same..?

[youkoso]

( shocked and doubtful that madara can hold a phone in his big beefy hands without shattering it— anyway he's taking note of those things because :0 )

i was indisposed for a time i suppose you could say some time after our last meeting
hence why i didnt contact you as soon as i intended
i believe i owe you an apology for that
our last meeting
however
i have no excuse for what ive done and i wanted to express my deepest apologies inadequate though they may be
have you been well since our last meeting
id been worried about the amount of blood wed stolen

[obsessiveness]

[ it's one of the seven mysteries of yumeno, ig ]

It's fine, really. I wouldn't have offered if I didn't want it... Guess Kuma-kun trained me for this even back home. I took some iron supplements, covered them with makeup, and I think the marks are slowly fading away.

[ the difference is that ritsu only bit without drawing any blood - rei, however, almost drained him. and there were two of them, so it's kind of like sharing a raspberry milkshake. hm. ]

Still, I can't really forgive you that easily for that botched rescue attempt. Even if the sex felt good. [ er-hem. ] To make it up to me, you've got to tell me where you've been all this time because I'm sure everyone else from our school are worried about your sudden disappearance. Kuma-kun, especially.

[obsessiveness]

Practical and grounded, huh... Guess you'd have to make do while I wasn't here.

[ he'll keep that in mind then. for now his eyes widen at the reveal, uh ]

What do you mean you think she's pregnant? Didn't you get her to a doctor? [ LEO??? ] Let me see her. Now.

[espansivo]

Sheesh, you care more about her than you do me~. I'm jealous.

[he's not. because he loves little john more than almost anyone in the world, so he Gets It.

it takes a little bit, but leo finds her atop the fridge and manages to coax her down with some treats; she's definitely Bigger, looking a little mad at being held like a baby, and... yeah, she's probably definitely pregnant.]

Why would I go to a doctor? Cats are pukey for no reason too, Sena.

[obsessiveness]

Cats in general have stronger stomachs than us humans, idiot. And you're not holding her properly again! [ HUFFS ] That's it, hand her over.

[ and instead of waiting for leo to give her to him, izumi just scoops her from his arms. shh shh, he's here now. and yeah, she is a lot bigger, almost like the time they created knights together.

she'd seen so much. ]

Come on, show me her bed. She needs rest.

[espansivo]

[his daughter was taken from him................ tragedy,]

Mm~. She seems calmer now that she's with you... That's no fair, Little John, I thought we were family!

[though he's not too hurt by it, warmth filling his chest as he looks over sena and his cat; without thinking he leans over to kiss the other, turning away and leading them to a particular room and peeking in before he opens the door.

it's the room with the most plants, blankets nestled lazily on the bed in almost something resembling, well, a nest, and leo leans by a nicer looking cat bed on an end table at the window, dim light warming it.]

Here~. Though she likes sleeping pretty much everywhere but.

[obsessiveness]

[ is that a freaking nest - oh, wait, that's problem aspen and his birdbrain. ok. izumi follows in, carefully settling the cat down on the bed and giving her a few strokes on the back and a kiss on the forehead. ]

There we go. Shh.

[ ... ♪ ]

What are you gonna do with her litter when they arrive?

[espansivo]

[little john steps around her new spot and meows at sena's kiss, sitting down as she starts to clean herself. leo strokes down her back gently, focusing on that easily.]

Mm~. Once they're weaned, I'll probably see if anyone wants one... Go through applications and interviews... That kinda thing. I'd wanna keep them since I can now, but Aspe's only starting to really getting used to her. I don't want to be a bother and ask he get used to like, five more, you know?

[even if he thinks aspen might adopt the litter fast.]

Sena can have his pick of the litter, of course~. But only the one I recommend.

[youkoso]

( RITSU..........

anyway, he types pretty slowly normally, but here there's a noticeable pause, despite himself. he also doesn't really want to talk about anything in a direct manner, in particular things that are personal to him, but he also owes izumi pretty badly. mmm. )

kukuku
if my cute ritsu truly was worried about me then i admit i could allow myself to pass on in peace
however while it is true i owe you for my failure it hardly holds that i owe anyone else much explanation
what i do with my own time is no business but my own is it not
so by this measure i do not mind sharing with you the nature of my absence but id rather divulge it to you in secrecy
i would not be very pleased to hear of the others hearing of this
if those terms are suitable to you then i should be happy to commit to this exchange

( he owes izumi but he still has the gall to be difficulty about it— besides, he sort of hopes if it sounds like he was just dicking around somewhere without directly lying about it izumi might just lose interest, good-hearted busybody though he may be. )

[obsessiveness]

Must be quite serious.

I have my own secrets to keep and I don't mind taking yours to the grave, for the most part. What is it that you can't tell everyone else about?

[youkoso]

( tch...... but he'd been prepared to answer if izumi weren't deterred, he guesses. this time, there isn't any particular pause, save an extra few moments he spends deciding how he ought to phrase this. )

its nothing as grand as youre expecting
i was simply kept for a time and lacked access to my phone
i dropped it somewhere most likely
but its not as if this is the first time in all my years ive dealt with such an attempt
it was more an inconvenience than anything else

( it isn't the first, but it is, likely, the first time it's been successful. )

[obsessiveness]

So you went somewhere and dropped your phone? And that this isn't the first time you've done this?

Why does this sound all too familiar.

[ too bad deadpan doesn't translate well in text... least leo's knows how to operate a phone, christ. ]

So long as you're all right, I suppose. I don't have to pry too much on your affairs and vice versa; a lot of shit's been happening here and I simply can't afford to just track you all down for updates? That'd be annoying.
