[...Man, it's been a while. If it wasn't for how much he abused the tower defense game Jade had put on his comm, the thing would probably have a layer of dust on it by now. Things had been quiet for him, in the days following Christmas. So much good had happened, followed by...well, no, he wasn't going to dwell on it. Jade was back, safe and sound

Hello Yosuke
Im Happy To See That You Didnt Suffer Any Serious Injury After Your Idiocy On The Nineteenth

Though On The Other Hand I Suppose If You Did Given Your Usual Mannerisms Well Never Know

[lets_go_partner]

...Happy UR happy, I guess. [Only not.] Y do U even care what I do, anyway? U hate me.

[wantrainbowwine]

I Dont Hate You
You Simply Make Yourself An Easy Candidate For Trolling

[lets_go_partner]

'Trolling'? [There was that word again.] wth is that NEway?

[pishirogane]

Tell me you're going to brush your teeth after that.

[Nice dog and all, but lord... so unhygienic.]

[Video]

[lets_go_partner]

[NAOTO...]

I don't carry one on me in the park!

[Video]

[pishirogane]

[Yes?]

I meant upon returning to your room. Though, you shouldn't allow your dog to lick you in the first place.

[lets_go_partner]

[Your hygiene obsession is TROUBLING.]

It's a dog, it's what they do! It's like telling you not to use ten dollar words. You'd explode.

You're free to room with me once my temporary tennant vacates the premises, you know. But you're well aware I'm not "chill about dirt" and frankly your puppy is a dead dog if he so much as accidentally pees or poops or throws up on anything I hold dear, so help me.

[ Deep breaths, Kurt. Deep. Breaths. ]

...Maybe it's not such a good idea after all. [ A realization that is incredibly depressing, actually. ]

[The whole hyperventilating thing would've been cute if Yosuke didn't know it was totally genuine. And even then, it was still a little cute.]

Lucky's a good dog! Housebroken and everything. But--

[Yosuke remembered to switch to private at the last moment.]

--you know that it's not like I could move in with you, anyway. [His smile turned fond, and a little apologetic...before falling quite dramatically into something nervous.] Unless you, ah...forgot what I said?

[couragemantra]

[ Kurt seems to tense up, crossing his arms and letting out a huff of a sigh. ]

Yeah. I know. Forgive me for kind of wanting to spend that extra time with you, dog or no dog. But I get it - it's not a good idea, for various reasons.

[ He pauses and looks away, apparently thoughtful. ] You should move in with your partner. Jade.

[lets_go_partner]

[Yosuke's frown tightened into something frustrated mixed with apology.]

Dude, that's not what I said, I'm still going to come over, like...all the time. You'll want me to leave. I'm a lot messier than Lucky is. And--

[He stopped, thoughtful.] That's...what she was saying, yeah. I guess I'm just worried. I don't want to cramp her style or anything.

You can crash at mine if you need to. Just as long as you don't mind the sofa, or anything. I have a dog, not a cat anyway, so as long as they don't start a war to the bitter end it should be okay.

[Minako tilts her head, thoughtfully. She knows a fair bit now about what happened between Souji, Yosuke and Kurt, and she can imagine how stressful it must have been for all them-- well she doesn't even have to do that, she saw firsthand how stressed out Souji was. Sure, it was a combination of many things, but the rather mixed relationship was definitely a factor.

She chuckles slightly, before smiling a little fondly at the screen.]

You're looking well. I'm glad you had a good Christmas.

[video]

[lets_go_partner]

[Minako...Yosuke knew as far as the fact that she and Souji had gotten close while he went on his soul searching journey. Still. He didn't know how close. Either way, the guy was a little nervous. Noticeably, considering how at ease the two music aficionados usually were with each other.]

Uh...yeah, it was really good. [WHAT DO YOU KNOW Yosuke smiled as easily as he could. The fact that remembering it did bring a happy memory helped his general presentation.] But I dunno, Lucky's kind of a biter. I don't want him to pick fights he can't win.

[video]

[wildcardette]

[Minako doesn't push anything. There's an obvious 'I think I know that you know that I know that you might know' vibe there, confusing as that is. Souji had mentioned how nervous and freaked he'd been about recent revelations, so she wasn't about to pluck them out of thin air and wave them around in his face.]

Lassie wouldn't hurt him. He's a softy, really. Plus he's not around all the time; Katsura-san likes to spend time with him.

[video]

[lets_go_partner]

[Yosuke's still uneasy, and kinda ridiculously curious, but he held his ground. Maybe this was just...what was the word, projection? Souji and Kurt had both thrown it at him before. Maybe he kinda-sorta had a problem with that.]

Katsura-san, huh? [Yosuke grinned. Hell yeah, redirection!] Does Aragaki-kun know~?

[Video]

[ombrasolare]

Well, optimism is good, I suppose. What a cute puppy.

[Video]

[lets_go_partner]

You suppose? [A beat, then a smile.] Oh! Ha, thanks, yeah, he's awesome.

[Video]

[ombrasolare]

We seem to be getting more than our fair share of adorable animals recently.

[Video]

[lets_go_partner]

Maybe, but not as adorable as Lucky-chan. [Yosuke's voice slipped briefly into Who's The Pretty Puppy territory before he reigned it in.] Or, uh...are you one. [He looked kinda like Teddie, so Yosuke just learned not to question it by now. Still. Better to know what he was dealing with.]
