nine. ☆ ( video / action for goldenrod city )

[uuing]

[ Long time no see, huh? At least not in a feed that Maria started, either way, but she has an important duty now so she absolutely had to make a post! Alternatively you might encounter her in Goldenrod, as she tugs on your sleeve to ask you this

[It's probably good Yosuke hasn't checked the network yet today, instead opting to go out and run some errands -- buying food for the house, mostly. Not that there isn't anything there, but being gone for so long means there's nothing there he wants to eat. If he were to see it, he probably wouldn't react well.]

[Not given his current situation and the things that have happened to him over the last few weeks. Relationships are very personal, Maria!]

[Either way, he's walking through the city, with Hokuto - his Ninetales - trailing close behind. He may not hear if she calls out though; he's wearing his headphones under his ridiculous hat. Please accost him!]

[uuing]

[ Oh, she does call out to him quite a few times when she spots him, even waving her arms wildly. Geez, Yosuke, why aren't you paying attention to her!!

After a little while she gives up on the waving though and instead quickly runs over to him, almost bumping into him but stopping right in time to avoid the collison. ]

Uu-! Yosuke, Maria was calling out for you a-ll this time!

[usedkunai]

Wha-- [Sudden Marias in his face are surprising! He's a little wide-eyed, but he relaxes into a smile, tugging at his hat a little so he can pull his headphones back down around his neck.]

He-hey, Maria-chan. Sorry about that, hehe.

[uuing]

[ For a moment she eyes his hat, and she's about to make a comment about a frog, but instead she remembers her question and how absolutely vital it is to ask Yosuke that now. ]

Yosuke has to help Maria out with something! Maria has a v-ery important question!

[usedkunai]

[He tilts his head a little, looking down to give her a curious look.] Sure -- what's up?

[uuing]

Uu-, Maria was told to ask people, and Maria knows Yosuke is re-ally smart and a good friend of Maria's, so she has to know..

[ - with a smile - ]

Is Yosuke ready to have a boyfriend or girlfriend yet?

[usedkunai]

[Staring. Staring so blankly and oh god. His stomach is in his throat. Can he answer this? If he answers honestly, would it lead to more questions? He can't say anything about his own situation. But his voice is caught in his throat. Panic is visible on his face.]

A-Ahahaa... [Isn't that the most awkward and forced laugh you have ever heard?] C-Come again, Maria-chan? I must be hearing wrong...

[uuing]

[ Even if he's in panic (and rather obvious panic at that) Maria doesn't really seem to notice from the way she keeps smiling, and almost looks a bit curious too. ]

Uu-..? Didn't Yosuke hear Maria? Maria asked if Yosuke is ready to have a boyfriend or girlfriend yet!

[usedkunai]

O-oh... haha, right. Uh. [He pauses, trying to find the right words for this. He's not going to say he's got one, not when his closest friends don't even know, but he has to say something.] Ye-yeah, I guess so. I mean, if the right person came around, you know?

[Even if Maria doesn't notice, he feels like a deer caught in the headlights right now.]
