WHAT IN PERSON, YA FOOLS
WHERE anywhere
WHEN Day 8, evening

[ it's beginning to be summer -- or something like that, sort of. late spring? the weather has been warming up is the point and in the twilight of, well, now, the fireflies have also come out.

twinkling little stars that are actually bugs. Rather, slightly larger than the normal firefly -- in fact, perhaps they seem more like will o' the wisp sized.

But still, a lovely summer. If you follow one they may lead you (crashing into) the path of someone else.

Or the lake.

Definitely also the lake. ]

I think that we might be, yes.

... [dammit why did I suggest a walk. I saw Serizawa and my brain betrayed me??]

Ah, hey, there's a bench over there under that willow tree! How about we sit over there?

Oh, yes. All right. You look like you could sit down for a little bit.

Yyyyyesss.

[I probably should not ask]

Let's sit down.

[He slumps back and crosses his foot over his knee, sighing out]

Aah, I started working out again, and I pushed myself too hard doing too much like always.

[Reigen that's a lie, isn't it?]

You shouldn't push yourself too hard. If you get injured then you'll have trouble working.

[it's not a TOTAL lie, just, you know, the nature of the workout,,,]

I know. Don't worry, I won't get hurt.

All right. Did you want to join Shigeo-kun and I sometime?

Maybe later, after I'm a little more confident. I can't put up a bad performance in front of Mob.

[but would Mob really care that much?]

I think you'd seem more confident than you think.

Easy for you to say! I'm working up from a very gentle lifestyle.

Ah, no, I mean. You always seem very sure of yourself?

Of course I do! But there's appearances and there's actually running far without getting winded.

I guess that's true.

...

[Reigen reaches up, then hesitates.]

Ah... Can I touch your hair?

[that's a strange request??]

Ah—yes?

[look. Casual intimacy is not something I'm used to.

He reaches up, his ears red, to thread his hand through Serizawa's hair, his palm brushing his cheek.]

... You could use a trim.

[we are both flying blind here okay. he kind of. leans in a little, that feels nice?]

Ah, it has been a little while...

[he pets us hair a little, then slides his palm to his cheek. Red to his neck.]

I could tidy it up, if you want.

[Serizawa lifts his hand, resting it lightly over Reigen's]

I'd like that.

[ah. Redder. He rubs his thumb along Serizawa's scruff.]

I could give you a shave, too.

[so red here too /// Serizawa leans in a little]

That would be nice.

... You're really handsome, you know.

[he laughs a little, squeezing at Reigen's hand]

Thank you. You're really attractive too.
