Exactly! We'll have the upper hand for sure! The upperclassmen are always getting the jump on us, you know? But soon they'll be graduating, and we'll be the "it" couple at Altaciere, so we have to work on our game early on, so we'll be ready to rule when the time comes!
[ he's hoping they'll win out on prom nominations but he doesn't have a lot of hope. i mean come on man Makoto and Rin are like a gay swimming Brangelina. but this is his only year to try, because he's... not doing senior year. another thing that's kind of Serious that he hasn't talked to Rei about yet, either... but he'd rather have the vanished fake parents discussion than the "btw i'm dropping out" talk any day. ]
Our high school has an "it" couple? What does that even mean?! Ready to rule?!??!???
[ He's obviously not even thinking about prom nominations since he's not too sure he could ever remember being nominated for anything in his whole life before he came here--and not to mention that Rei still does not know about Makoto and Rin dating, even if he has his suspicions.
He decides to not raise his voice anymore since he's unlocking the door and is afraid they are already going to wake Aikuro and Mikoto up by being their noisy selves anyway. ]
Are we really going to tell everyone in that manner though? [ He says with a quieter tone, or well, quiet for Rei. ]
[ ya damn skippy there's an "it" couple and our besties are definitely "it"... somehow he conveniently neglects to say this, though, distracted by going into the house and thinking about how they should actually break the news. ]
Hmm... well... if you already told Mako-chan, and I already told Rin-chan, then I guess they're already expecting it, realistically. [ oops cat's out of the bag... rinchan knows. he forgot he hadn't told Rei about that already. ] So we obviously have to be ostentatious about it! It's the only chance we have to make an impact.
[ So he did go talk to someone too! Honestly hearing that made Rei feel better that he wasn't the only one who had to go to someone and get advice since he was so certain that Nagisa was a professional at this. Of course, he'd not call him out on it, but he definitely couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard that. ]
You're right! We should surprise them and make it very dramatic, although no one else is expecting it other than Rin-senpai and Makoto-senpai, so I suppose we could tell them however we want to.
[ He paused for a moment, keeping quiet as they walked past Aikuro and Mikoto's rooms, but then he opened his room door and sat Nagisa's bag down. ]
I hope they're not too surprised, since I don't want them to treat us differently because...we're...well...you know! [ gay. ]
[ he's nice enough to wait to reply until after they're in Rei's room, and immediately starts dumping the junk out of his pockets on the desk so he can get ready for showertime. he pauses for a moment, though, blinking in confusion. ]
[ How can there be so many things in his pockets--is that garbage?!?! Unacceptable!!! Rei immediately went over and started sorting anything that was clearly a wrapper to something from Nagisa's pockets to the things that should actually be in there.
He didn't dwell on that for long, because he wasn't sure how to word this properly since he wasn't aware that most of his friends were already gay anyway. ]
We're...together now, and that means we're both...homosexual...right? Do you think they'll be freaked out?! [ He sounds so serious rip his precious gay heart. ]
[ oh my... "homosexual." he lets out a snort of laughter, low and not overly exaggerated. ]
I seriously doubt we have to worry about them judging us for that, trust me. Besides, I don't think it's always exactly that clear cut. [ thinking of makoto's BOOB MAGS and wishing he wasn't ] They definitely won't be freaked out.
[ He did not know about Makoto's magazines and he would be glad that he didn't know about them. But of course he knew there were other forms of sexuality and such, but he never thought of them when applying anything to himself, really. ]
If you say they won't, then I'm sure you're correct since you have known them much longer than I have. But I won't want it to be strange since we are all guys--you know? But I don't like any of them like that, so they shouldn't have to worry, right!?
I really hope not! [ ha ha ha no but seriously he'd kill them without batting an eye ] They'll know where we're coming from... I mean, they'd kind of have to. I was more worried about how it would change the team, but then I realized it wouldn't at all. It already hasn't, with everything else that's happened, so why would us being together be any different?
[ just how long are they going to go barely toeing the edge of dropping the makorin bomb... he still doesn't realize Rei doesn't know ]
I was too, but you're right. I apologize for all my concerns and questions! I was just unsure if our group of friends is accepting of that sort of thing.
[ Rei...your group of friend are all really gay so it's okay, not that he knows that. But, he definitely knows that Aikuro is alright with him being this way along with Makoto, and so is Nagisa obviously, so he shouldn't worry too much. His friends were good to them both so he should just stop worrying about every single little thing. ]
I do know that Mikisugi-san is aware that I like you, a boy, since I sort of realized it when I was talking to him. [ He paused for a moment. ]
I'm a bit nervous to see how everyone will react, but as long as you're there with me, I think I will be alright. [ too smooth for Rei Ryugazaki...another rare moment. ]
[ YEAH too smooth, he loses his train of thought barely into the first word of the sentence and stammers a little, looking away again. then don't mind him he's invading Rei's drawers for his favorite pair of PJs to steal, and also a towel. ]
Our friends are the kind of people who would accept us as-is, no matter what. But they always want us to improve, and to live lives of ambition and happiness, so... I think they would support this, even if they weren't equally complicit. [ of being HUGE GAYS. slinging the towel over his shoulder. ] And I don't plan on being anywhere but right by your side, so you don't have a thing to worry about.
[ there put that in your smooth pipe and smoke it ]
[ Oh he's smoking the smooth pipe, because he definitely stutters over his words a few times, and by stutter over words he just can't even get out the correct English for whatever he was going to say which just makes him look frustrated with himself. ]
Hmph--!!
[ He folded his arms, and planned on asking Nagisa if he wanted a towel, but again, words were not forming properly. Rei wanted to reply and agree with Nagisa that he was right about their friends being supportive and asked what he meant by complicit with the fact that they are gay, but all that went out the window since his boyfriend just had to say something like that to make him embarrassed!!!! ]
I-I--!!! Do you--need...anything else?!?!? For your shower!!!!
Nnnnope! Your shampoo's already in the shower, right? I'll be back in a jiffy!
[ B) struts like a playa out the door and into the bathroom. he was going to say "try not to miss me too much" but he doesn't have a high enough charisma skill level for that dialogue option yet.
and yes, he is going to sing "walkin' on sunshine" is completely fucking terrible english at 12 o'clock at night without using his Inside Voice. sorry for your hangover aikuro ]
[ ....The whole house was going to wake up to this inaccurate English that Nagisa was singing right now. He would have to apologize to everyone later and he knew it. Rei sighed and while he was not looking forward to explaining how he told Nagisa to use his inside voice and he ignored him, he couldn't help but smile since the other was clearly happy enough to sing that loudly. It would be worth getting in trouble, really, and that was a rare thought coming from Rei Ryugazaki.
Of course now that Nagisa was in the shower, Rei went ahead and changed into his pajamas and went to work on his glasses with his glasses kit. It had everything he would ever need in case of an emergency, and of course he was right about it being a loose screw. He was lucky that the frame didn't crack or he would have had to get it replaced or repaired, and he's had those glasses for over a year now! His mother and father had bought him some new ones just before high school, but really, he's always worn red glasses even when he was in elementary school.
Fixing those up didn't take too long, and so he went ahead and looked in his closet for the outfit he could wear tomorrow. His original plan was to get that out so that he could iron both his and Nagisa's clothes while Nagisa was in the shower, but it took him longer to decide since he still wasn't used to wearing normal clothes that weren't school uniforms to school. So, Nagisa probably walked back to Rei standing in front of his closet, and his back to the door. ]
[ it's ok, apparently a text conversation was shoehorned in during their walk back at some point so at least Aikuro knows he's here and also that all went well. he takes a little bit longer of a shower than he really means to because he sure does dig the Fancy Shampoo, and of course he has to finish singing the song first!!! and other than the few moments he spent up in his room gathering all his stuff for school tomorrow, it's the first time he's had by himself since the park and he needs a second to let reality sink in. he's still a little bit in shock, after all.
but it's a good shock for sure, given that he's happy and singing and clocking his head against the shower door by accident because he can't stop dancing around, as opposed to crying like a titty baby until the house runs out of hot water.. again.
when he comes back he's dressed in the commandeered PJs with his towel wrapped around his head like how girls do?? i have no idea how that towel hat works, what keeps it up?? how is it made??? i'm a woman and i don't know, but Nagisa does. he's a sorcerer. he tilts his head at Rei standing blankly in front of the closet and then comes around to pop his chin over Rei's shoulder and peek around at him like he always does. ]
Psst, wear the black shirt with the yellow tie. We'll match!
[ Every now and then, Rei would hear Nagisa bumping or dropping things in the shower, and honestly he's not sure what he's doing to make so much noise. But goodness....He's going to have to apologize so much the next day. At least he finally heard the shower turn off, so that must mean that Nagisa was done bumping into things, but probably not.
He expected Nagisa to walk in at any moment, but the sudden head on his shoulder made him jump a little though at least he didn't scream. Rei picked up the outfit that was described to him, or well, the shirt and tie anyway--did Nagisa want them to match? Would that be too much? He didn't expect the towel magic, though, and was always amazed when people did that. ]
These? What bottoms will you be wearing if you would like to match properly, not to mention they need to be ironed.
[ peers into the depth of his unBELIEVABLY old mannish closet... god... look at all this fucking Burberry. high class gay 50 year old man clothes and god only knows what, thrift shop finds or something, who knows. incredible. how hard is it to find a pair of jeans in here that will make his ass look like POW, because that's the exact kind of jeans he went for, himself. ]
What happened to those jeans we got a couple months ago... you know, the ones I picked out? The dark faded ones?
[ the ones he basically forced him to buy because they were super flattering but Rei was like :\ about the cut of the leg and was also apparently allergic to anything trendy?? ]
[ What's wrong with 50 year old man clothes...they're definitely stylish and hip with no weird cuts that accented his body! Especially skinny jeans! Those were way too tight! ]
The ones with strange cut? I put them at the top with the rest of my casual pants.
[ He reached up to the top of the closet and got down a few pairs of jeans, half of which looked like they came from the grandpa section and the other few didn't look too bad. ]
I just haven't found a top that would go with those yet--do you think this outfit would really look good with those? Isn't that too casual for school? [ ????? ]
[ snatches them jeans out of his hands, the obnoxiously skinny ones of course, and unfolds them so he can hold them up to Rei's waist. ]
See, these are so great! You looked awesome in them, I kept telling you you looked awesome but you just wouldn't accept the compliment! Just do the black button-up with the short sleeves instead of long, skip the tie, we'll find something else yellow instead. You'll look so cool.
[ he cannot control his fashion fussing, it's not his fault. ]
[ He does as he is told and stands there as Nagisa gives him fashion advice over some outfit that he's not so sure about, not to mention he would swear that only young kids wore these tight of pants. ]
I just think they looked too tight on me, honestly! What? No tie either?
[ The rare day that Rei might look like he has a fashion sense will be soon. ]
Cool, you say? Why don't we add this "cool" yellow sweater then?!
[ He sounds so proud of himself right now, but he literally just picked up a yellow old man sweater. ]
[ B| takes a shit and wipes his ass with that sweater... jk, it's a very nice shade of yellow, but it also looks like grandpa's golf day special, and it just won't do. maybe if it were 3 inches shorter and a lot more baggy it would be cool. he'd even take Makoto's cardigans over this. ]
The whole point of those jeans, and that shirt, is because the silhouette is super flattering! So if you dump a puffy sweater over it, it makes the whole thing pointless! But maybe if you... push the sleeves up... and don't pull it down all the way??
[ why is he even trying to salvage the idea of wearing that sweater ]
[ Maybe it was a golf day special, or a sale! Rei loved when places had sweater sales because they he would always buy at least 2 each sale, lord help us all. ]
Why would I not pull it down all the way when the point of the sweater is to keep me warm?
[ He doesn't understand what Nagisa is saying here, but apparently he's not going to win this and can't look like his usual grandpa self, so he looks into the closet for something else. He clearly doesn't own as much yellow as Nagisa does, but he has a few ties and bow-ties, maybe a vest as well. ]
Would a vest or tie look best then since I refuse to push this sweater up?
Maybe a bowtie... oh, yeah! That would be so cute! If you put it right where the collar meets in the front here, a little lower than usual—?? That's perfect! A vest would be too obvious since I'm wearing one too, but the colors would still match and everything!
[ THANK GOD, GET THAT FUCKING SWEATER OUT OF HERE. he's already pushing the jeans and shirt back into Rei's hands so he can dive in and find him an appropriate bowtie. ]
[ The look will be great, but it's definitely not near as flashy as something Rei would normally wear, so of course he's going to have to wear a stupid belt and shoes to match since it would not be complete without the added flashy bits.
Now he's just worried about the state of his closet once Nagisa gets his hands on it because everything is perfectly organized, color-coded, and separated by casual or formal. ]
Alright, and I have the perfect belt and shoes to wear with this! Although, what if those pants are so tight that I rip them---Also allow me to find the bowtie, Nagisa-kun!
[ Despite having jeans and a shirt in his hand, he does not want his closet to be a disaster so he will look while holding things if he has to. ]
You won't rip them! They're made for moving with you! Wahhh—I can get it...
[ he doesn't actually know where the tie is, though, so he backs up to let Rei find it, but that's only so they can get a move on, not because he cares about wrecking the state of that obnoxiously organized closet. ]
