[As he waited on the pink haired samurai to finish his phone call, he wondered exactly just how much longer things were going to take. He wasn't exactly comfortable in public, and standing near the alleyway with his hat brim lowered over his eyes was the only temporary solution he had to the position he had found himself in. Yukimi was busy with

[Raikou felt a little awkward around Yoite. It was as if his jokes fell on deaf ears, and maybe they really did. Raikou was talking rather animatedly with Gau, his voice occasionally falling to a whisper. Whenever his voice lowered so much that Yoite couldn't hear him, his eyes flicked up to watch the boy. Raikou laughed and told Gau he'd call later, closing his phone with a snap.]

"Are you ready, Yoite-kun?"

[After several moments, he finally glanced to the side to look up at the pink haired man with a slight nod, pushing himself off the wall to go stand near him. He didn't catch everything that was said, but he had learned to mask his growing deafness with reading lips.] "...Find out anything?"

[Yoite's growing skill in lip reading was easily masked by Raikou turning away at appropriate moments, or covering his mouth. Raikou shook his head, feigning a discouraged expression.]

"Gau's waiting for Yukimi. He got caught up in something." [That was a lie - Gau and Yukimi had already met up. However, Raikou wasn't quite sure what to say.] "We'll catch up with them later, after we're done. He briefed me on the basics, since he phoned Yukimi."

[Raikou glanced around, looking for something to distract Yoite.] "Come on, Yoite-kun. I'm hungry." [He pointed to a small restaurant selling something - probably takoyaki. Without waiting for his temporary partner, Raikou went to investigate. He snuck a peek over his shoulder to see if Yoite was going to come along with him. And if he didn't, everyone would be treated to Raikou's very loud voice to get Yoite's attention.]

[Listening to what the pink haired man had to say, he nodded once again before turning to follow in toe behind the samurai. It only took a few moments to get to the restaurant, glancing to the side to watch Raikou's facial expressions. He wondered if something had held Yukimi up. He always was late for important rendezvous.] "...I wonder what's keeping Yukimi this time."
