( it's cute, the lively way in which they talk about their friends—stars rising, blooming somewhere out there in a universe beyond here. he can almost picture the four of them stomping effortlessly around some dreary memorial plaque of his, their voices carrying over the trees and into the night as they debate their separate excitements in the presence of each other. and that's exactly how he'd want it to be, isn't it? a raucous gathering the likes that could raise the dead.
unfortunately, takasugi catches the fork coming his way and deftly pulls his plate back between two fingers. the utensil hits the wood with a dull thump, his shoulder leaning back against the chair. )
Cheeky. Just because you’re the life of the party doesn’t mean you can snatch my reward out from under me. If anything, you're about a hundred years too early to catch the likes of Takasugi Shinsaku off guard, so try again in another hundred.
( the pressed look on shiina-kun's face. the boisterous crowing of amagi-kun.
the richness of life is overflowing in the two of them, and in this food that's been presented, and suddenly takasugi's out of his seat to slam a sandaled foot against the edge of the table, raising his plate in the air as if he expects to make a toast without a drink. the staff watch closely, a bit uneasy about the commotion coming from their group.)
Honestly, with the way you two make it sound, I wouldn't want it any other way. Living life to the fullest and throwing caution to the wind is what it's all about! But, putting that future aside for now. Let's keep that energy going, and show this whole city why 3kon was born to blow their feeble worries away in the coming month, noise regulations be damned! What do you say, gentlemen?!
( the table shakes under his weight, takasugi throwing his other arm out in a showy gesture. )
[That's right! No one's going to die today. It's a small miracle they're even able to have this conversation right now. If they worry about the details now, they'll just end up right back where they started, Niki's sure, so... they can worry about it another time. But that doesn't mean Niki's forgetting about this self-sacrificing nonsense, either! He's not having it from either of them!]
What makes you think any ghosts would want to party with you? You're just gonna scare them away. [He says to Rinne... through squished, pudgy cheeks. Takasugi is too alive to count as a ghost right now, obviously.] Um, I'm glad someone is willing to put Rinne-kun in his place, but now I feel like you're causing trouble, too, CEO-san...
[The restaurant owner is going to change her mind about him if they keep all of this up!! But Niki doesn't actually dislike anything about this. Before he'd met Rinne, he could only ever dream of being surrounded by this kind of noise, this kind of life. So despite his mild complaints, he's actually pretty happy right now.]
Should we toast to it? We only have tea and water, though.
[ The darkness clouding his heart dissipates with Rinne's laughter. Let Takasugi do whatever he wants. Let Niki complain in his hold. Right now, Rinne's too happy to see anything but the dream ahead of them. ]
I don't give a rat's ass what we got. A celebration's a celebration!
[ He steps on his chair, grabs his glass of water, and raises it to meet Takasugi's plate. ]
A toast to 3kon! We'll be taking Karteria by storm this summer, I just know it!
