[Uh-oh]

Yes, well, it's important to visit my boss and my friends? A-and you were snuck in here, remember?

[blue_pleather]

I guess so, but it's not my fault!

[blinking in abject bemusement, still has no idea how Usada knew where to find you]

[beetbuster]

[cocks head] Ya sure you didn't say anything to Youko or him? It's been awhile, but I seem to remember they're just a bit touchy at times.

[blue_pleather]

Youko-chan likes me! It's Hiromu she doesn't get along with. And Usada ... sometimes he just likes to make trouble.

[beetbuster]

And Hiromu is... Mr. Sister Complex, right?

Hmm, yes, sometimes I wonder if Usada isn't actually evil.

[blue_pleather]

He doesn't have a sister complex. Youko-chan just says that to annoy him

[tee hee hee]

And Nick. You remember Nick?

[beetbuster]

Yeah, I do! Man, he wound up at my place so many times while he was trying to get to the store-- is he still that bad?

[blue_pleather]

Yeah. Despite being fitted with the latest in navigational technology.

[searches all over for comms device; then realises it's not on him]

You know where base is, right?

[beetbuster]

[shifty eyes]

Oh, I figure I can find. It's not like it's scret or anything right?

[and he definitely doesn't work there, nope]

[blue_pleather]

It is, but I don't have my communicator. If I go missing they'll start looking for me.

[blink blink. What's with that look?]

[beetbuster]

Well, I definitely don't want to deal with the wrath of Youko, so we better get you home safe.

[tries to distract by by VERY LOUDLY looking for the keys HAVE YOU FOUND THEM YET RYUUJI]

[blue_pleather]

[... you're up to something, but he doesn't know what]

No? [rifling through a few things in the search]

[beetbuster]

Check my pants! Um, wherever they are...

[blue_pleather]

[opens wardrobe]

[none]

[just a ratty pair of jeans draped over a chair]

[checks pockets]

[beetbuster]

Yes, those! Be careful with them, they're all I have since I moved here-- I blew my clothes budget on the sheets!

[blue_pleather]

Why would you do that? You need more than one pair!

[shakes head. Feeling awfully like Gorisaki at this moment.]

[beetbuster]

[As he should, sob]

[flaps hand] Calm down, I totally have a job now, so I'll buy lots of pants with all the money I'll make-- hey, I can even get you some clothes aside from all the stuffy sweaters and slack you wore in school!

Anyways, are my keys there or not?

[blue_pleather]

[rummage]

Yep. [holds them up]

You got a job?

[beetbuster]

[Huzzah!]

Toss them here-- yep, it's pretty posh, too.

[blue_pleather]

[throws keys at you]

You're a genius. You could work anywhere. Who are you with, JAXA? The government?

[beetbuster]

[just barely catches them before they hit his head :(]

[crap, gotta think up a good cover job, hmmm]

I'm a... hair dresser?

[it worked for Battle France, right?!?]

[blue_pleather]

... You're an engineer. You are literally one of the most astonishing brains currently living in the entire Asia-Pacific region. And you wanna be a hairdresser?

[looks abashed]

I mean ... I looked up to you because you were living my dream. It's hard for me to imagine you doing anything else. I'm sorry.

[beetbuster]

[aww, poor bb :()]

I... [uneasy smile] I guess my dream just changed. That's all.

[shounen mode]

(Damn, I wish I could tell you the truth, but I have to keep this facade up to ~protect you~ and the others!)

[/shounen mode]

[blue_pleather]

[weak grin] But you're happy, right?

[can sort of understand why Masato wouldn't want to go back to engineering when it is what got him into the HORROR UNDER THE SUBSPACE]

[beetbuster]

Uh, yeah. Totally happy.

[claps hands] Whelp, better get you home before Gorisaki tracks me down and kills me!

[but should probably put on pants first]
