[Action/Ice Building, Floor Three, Apartment Thirteen]

GOKU!!!!!!!!!!

[Goddammit... It was bad enough that Kanji was living with the weirdo... okay, so, Goku wasn't that bad as a roommate. He was polite and helpful. He didn't judge Kanji on his hobbies. He was actually kinda supportive, in a weird sort of fashion.

It didn't even bother him too much that the other man liked to walk through the apartment half-dressed.... Okay, that first time totally didn't count! Who does that?

But, the towel on the floor of the bathroom, still damp from the power shower he'd taken? NOT cool.]

GET THIS SHIT UP OFF THE FLOOR! RIGHT NOW!

[Video, Later the same day]

[You can see the blond standing in a clothing shop. He's standing in front of a rack of clothes with a pensive look on his face. It's obvious the journal is open and facing out to film him for a purpose. Kanji adjusts the rack before moving to the side to let anyone curious and paying attention to see a display of knitted stuffed toys.]

Yeah, that's perfect.

[He turns to face the journal and tries to smile, but it's obvious he's nervous.]

So, um, name's Kanji Tatsumi for those who don't know me. I just...Look, here's the deal. My family runs a textile shop back home. Since I got here, I've been feelin' homesick. And, uh, I've been doin' stuff that I would back there. Thanks to Rhyme, I got a place to sell them from. So, if you need somethin' repaired or you're looking for a cute plush toy, I'm your guy.

I'll be here on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and all day Sunday.

That's all.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I gotta do somethin', yeah? What better than what I was doin' back home with Ma?

[You comment on his hobbies, Yosuke, and Kanji might have to hunt you down for a beating. Just sayin'.]

Can't just stay home after school and sleep all day.

I don't know, it sorta feels like reaching an all new low when you decide to start working for fun.

[Although he totally understood being bored, but man. Working for fun.]

I was doin' it anyway. Might as well share it with the other people here.

[You're the king of the part-time job, Yosuke. You should get that.]

Is that what you do with all your free time? Make dolls?

[There is clear judgement in his tone here... He'd always figured it was more of a 'work' thing than a 'hobby' thing.]

[Dude, so not cool.]

Yeah. What do you do?

[Besides fall into garbage cans?]

[NOT COOL INDEED. He can hear that judging tone of voice, you know!]

Hey, don't turn this on me! I was just asking!

[He defensive because the answer is "nothing," really.]

[Doesn't feel good, does it? Sucks to be you now!]

Yeah, well, you don't always ask the nicest way, Yosuke-senpai.

[Besides, your kohai knows the answer is nothing.]

Argh, don't get all nitpicky on me! [The worst part is that he can kind of understand why he's guilty. He never really was good with words, after all.] How is that supposed to work, anyway? I mean, how do you sell them when there's no money?

It ain't nitpicky wantin' you to be nice.

[Kanji isn't a bad guy, you know that.]

It's more like a trade for services. No economy around here, after all.

Hey, don't make me out to be some kind of jerk!

[BUT YOU KINDA ARE, YOSUKE... Even though he never really means to be. It just kind of happens.]

Well, it's a way to pass time, I guess...

[He still doesn't seem all that sure about it, though. Getting jobs in a place like this just seemed weird to him.]

I heard this expression... it's called if the shoe fits, wear it.

[Time to watch out how you talk to your kohai. He's not as dumb as he looks. You should know that by now.]

Yeah, but I like doing this, Yosuke-senpai. So, it's better than just trying to sit around, doing homework.

Alright, alright, I get it!

[He lets out a sigh. And jeez, on the topic of homework...]

Well, anything would be better than that. Who wants to go to school longer than they have to?

There're people here who like that sorta thing. So, them, probably.

That doesn't explain you guys.

[Yosuke probably hasn't stopped complaining about having to go to school since the day his friends "suggested" it to him.]

Look, I had a hard enough time tryin' to make sure that I passed last year after I started goin' back. I ain't tryin' to mess that up by bein' here. At least I ain't gotta deal with King Moron now. He'd try ta get me kicked out for sure.

[You could have said no, Yosuke, but you're going just as much as Kanji is. So, shut up about it, man.]
