/sob we're terrible. A-also let's say this takes place outside the current event. |D;

[There's... an especially garishly dressed Fubuki strolling through the lobby. He has on his purple idol suit, as well as a feather boa, and a purple, wide-brimmed hat with white tiger striping around the rim

Need better surprised icons

[bestofred]

[Too scared to tag with Shoko just yet. So, have an unfortunate Judai. He's dressed in his full uniform and looks like he's at the end of his first year at Duel Academy.

He's just walking by like normal until he sees the pair.]

Fubuki! What are you doing? Sh-Shou?! What are you doing dressed like that?!

[lovepimp]

[FFF POOR SHOKO ;;]

...

[He blinks a few times at Juudai. He... really didn't expect to see him again, much less turn up in this part of town.]

Juuudai?

You know Shou-kun?

[wingsforrent]

[Shou has a very different reaction.]

...Who are you?

[...th' hell.]

[bestofred]

Of course I know him! We live in the same dorm room!

[He gives a brief, puzzled look at Fubuki's attire before looking back at Shou. He starts moving closer to Shou, puzzled at how he doesn't know him. It may come across as unwanted advancing, however.]

Shou, what's wrong? You don't remember me? It's me, Juudai!

[lovepimp]

[He's surprised enough at seeing another DA-alum around that he lets Juudai barge in. Though if he seems too interested in Shou...]

I never knew you two knew each other. Another school, I guess?

[It might almost looks like Shou's wearing a girl's uniform, with the cut-off sleeves and short-shorts.]

[wingsforrent]

I...I don't know him, shishou...

[He's looking a little worried, and edging away from Juudai slightly. There are too many crazy people in the underground to be entirely unconcerned about this boy barging in and claiming he knows him.]

[bestofred]

[When he sees Shou moving away and looking scared, he immediately moves back. The last thing he wants to do is freak out the first Shou he sees in this place. He shakes his head at Fubuki's response.]

Shishou? Since when did you become Manjoume? Shou, you're acting really weird. You're even wearing a girl's uniform... Did you hit your head?

[Now that he has a closer look at Shou's attire, the more uncomfortable Juudai gets. Shou had gotten into more than enough trouble their first year, and those chains screamed of something not unlike a Duel of Darkness.]

Look, I'm talking about Duel Academy. First year Slifer Red. We met at the entrance exams and dorm together with Hayato Maeda. Fubuki, you should know this. Back me up here!

[lovepimp]

[Yes, this was getting a bit bizarre.]

You didn't even come to the school until after Shou-kun had left, Juudai! Don't confuse the poor little guy.

[He waves a hand at Loco for Polo's benefit.]

This is Juudai - he was quite the star duelist when I was at the school...

[But if he's hanging around in the same area they are...]

...not anymore, I suppose.

[wingsforrent]

Oh...okay.

[He nods slowly.]

Nice to meet you, then, Juudai.

[bestofred]

[Now Judai was looking more confused than anything. Did they both hit their heads? Or maybe they were acting like Manjoume that swears he was from the future? No, he actually remembers past events correctly.]

What are you talking about? Shou never left. We're all still students, and I'm still a star duelist. [Yeah, he's not exactly going to be modest about that detail.]

You're a 3rd Year Obelisk Blue, and you and me are 1st Year Slifer Reds. [He points to Fubuki, Shou, and himself respectively. Maybe if he explained his point in time, that would explain things instead of maybe making him sound crazy.] If you ask me both of you are the ones that are confused.

[lovepimp]

...neither of us have been at the academy in a long time, Juudai-kun.

[Though somehow, denial seems like it would work as Juudai's particular defense mechanism.]

But I'm sure Shou-kun would be happy to get acquainted with you, hmm~?

[He budges Shou forward with one of his You know what to do. grins.]

[wingsforrent]

Of course, shishou.

[He...has a different sort of look on his face now. That is not the kind of look Shou is supposed to give you. At all. There's a lot of half-lidded glances and eyelash-fluttering going on. And he's moving closer.]

Maybe he could teach me some of the things I missed at the Academy...

And I could teach him some things I've learned, too~

[bestofred]

[That uncomfortable feeling Judai had before is stronger now. He looks back at Shou with a very uneasy look. He has no idea what Fubuki means about not being in the academy, but he can't put his mind around it just it.]

Sh-Shou, stop looking at me like that. It's... not right. [He scratches the back of this head. This was still looking bizarre.] I'm still up for hanging out. I can show you around this place.

[Of course, the first thing he's going to ask next is how to get those creepy chains off.]

[lovepimp]

Oh, we'd love a tour! I could've sworn I knew this neighborhood, but I've never seen this place before~

[He clasps his hands together, completely unphased by Shou's strange behavior. Unfortunately for Juudai, if he wants the chains to come off, he has to pay for the privilege~]

[wingsforrent]

[Sho will not be heeding Juudai's request any time soon. His expression never falters.]

Lead the way, Juudai. ♥
