Yosuke sat on the far side of the room, shifting uncomfortably in the prison-grade seat as he kept his eyes downward, his hands balled into fists on his lap. His gaze flickered up to the door every few seconds, searching for a glimpse of the man he'd come to meet, but they went back down to his shoes just as soon after.

He was infinitely familiar with the setting after watching hours upon hours of cop dramas, all caught on late-night television when he honestly had nothing better to do, but he'd never imagined being in one himself. It had almost felt like he'd stepped into a TV set the moment he walked into the room, a bit of nostalgia from his TV-hopping days back when Souji was still in Inaba. But the realization that this was real came when he sat down on the low-grade chair, the thin cushions worn down to the fabric at the bottom from the years of asses all seating themselves in the same location. Ken Watanabe had probably never had to sit down on something this uncomfortable before.

When he finally spots Adachi in the corner of his eye, standing at the door and looking around as if he didn't know who to expect, his first instinct is to duck down and make himself seem as small as possible so that he might pass him over. However, he hadn't come here to hide himself, nor to show off how pathetic he still was after the five, nearing six months it had been since the truth surrounding him had been revealed. So instead, he sits himself up a little straighter and takes a deep breath, trying -- and just barely succeeding -- in calming his nerves a little, so that he could face his fears with at least a thin veil of composure.

And there's that unmistakable mop of brown hair, the one he'd spend so many nights twisting in between his fingers while he rocked inside the kid, tearing him apart little by little for his own pleasure. Adachi's heart sinks further; he thought it wouldn't get any worse than Dojima coming, but this has shown him otherwise.

Hanamura's the last person Adachi expected to show up here. To give him a little credit, he'd finally stood up for himself in their final battle, but it was only mildly impressive. He could smell the kid's hesitation, the desire to shrink away and hide like a mouse in its cage. He could sense Yosuke's skin crawling in Adachi's presence, like he was in the room with doom and death itself. And still, to this day, it's almost an empowering feeling; he could find that spark of hatred that drove him through the year in Inaba and run with it again if he wanted.

But the guard leads him over to Yosuke's cubicle, and as Adachi sits down in front of him, he demands Yosuke's eye contact immediately. Don't drop it, Hanamura. Look at me. If you have to come here, you better fucking look at me. Look at what your friends have reduced me to, a pile of pathetic fucking shit.

And then, a smile parts his lips, slightly dirty teeth revealed. With a deep breath, Adachi speaks through the glass. "Long time no see."
