Week 3: Sleepover with Karaoke!

[latebluemer]

[The weekend is ever-creeping towards them, which means it's time for another gathering -- this time in the newly-accessible second floor, which comes with some of the amenities of the first but better. The soft room is pretty much ideal for this sort of thing, and if there are any windows someone's probably hung a blanket against the void.

Extra kotatsu from long-ago sleepovers have been brought up, there are snacks and drinks scattered amongst the endless blanket nests and pillow forts, and karaoke and the animal cafe are just next door. They can choose to head out for those attractions or bring in the pet animals of the cafe if they'd like. Anything is possible if you believe.]

[shakes his head]

Not really.

And I didn't get along well with most of the student population at my other school, anyway.

[moonlightbeast]

It's their loss then, you're a good friend and a good person.

[purrtagonist]

Thanks.

[smiles a little at Atsushi, clearly touched]

I stopped caring what my other classmates thought of me a long time ago, though.

[moonlightbeast]

'Those who mind do not matter, and those who matter do not mind'?

[purrtagonist]

Exactly.

[said a bit gently]

You can't please everyone, so only focus on those who matter.

[moonlightbeast]

It sounds like you're running a misfits club, then.

[purrtagonist]

[adjusts his glasses, eyes twinkling]

So what if I am?

[moonlightbeast]

Then I guess I found a club I would join, if invited to.

[purrtagonist]

You say that like you aren't already an honorary member.

[HE IS TEASING]

[moonlightbeast]

Is the 'honorary' part because I never went to school?

[He is also teasing.]

[purrtagonist]

It's "honorary" until you decide to make it official.

Because in the end, joining is your choice.

[moonlightbeast]

[Ah.]

My choice, hmm?

[That's new to him.]

[purrtagonist]

Yep. Your choice.

[something important!1]

[moonlightbeast]

[hhhhhhh don't give him choices like this.]

W-well what would you want me to do? I don't want to impose.

[purrtagonist]

I want you to do whatever it is you want to do.

[helpful]

[moonlightbeast]

I want someone else to tell me what to do.

[SO HELPFUL]

[purrtagonist]

[. . . no]

No one is going to do that this time.

[moonlightbeast]

[He's whining now.]

Kurusu-san!

[purrtagonist]

[zips his mouth shut and mimes throwing away the key]

[moonlightbeast]

[Well fine he just won't join the loser-squad then.]

[purrtagonist]

[HE'S ALREADY A PART OF THE LOSER-SQUAD]

[DAMN IT, ATSUSHI]
