crashout | DICK;

Yup. Whoever I saw first was gonna be treated and you just happened to get lucky. [Stop. But he grabs his coffee for another sip.] Better enjoy it.

[...tell him he did good.]

I was enjoying it until I learned I'm just a prop so you don't eat breakfast alone. [ he shakes his head and punctuates this by, y'know, gently nudging junpei's foot with his. this is obvious bar footsies ] At least breakfast was good even if the company's being rude.

[Can't believe they're busy with bar footsie and domestic breakfast-eating while later today Zero's going to fucking die. He's unfortunately here for it though even while he keeps his gaze on Dick's face.]

You already knew what kind of company you were keeping when you agreed to come with me, so this is your own fault. [But he leans in a little closer.] You're on your own for food for the rest of the week though.

[ sometimes you go on a date on a murder sex demon ship and this is what happens? speaking of, since junpei's leaning closer, dick kisses... his cheek!!! cucked. ]

Guess I'll suffer your personality without any buffer for the rest of the week. [ :3? ] Then again, I don't think I could've handled eggs for a week straight anyway, no matter how good they were. [ a challenge is it?? no. it isn't. it's a Fact ]

[EVERYONE HE LIKES KEEPS CUCKING HIM!! But it's fine because he still grins about it before narrowing his eyes a bit.]

Taking the full weight of my personality's a pretty big thing. What a noble sacrifice. [Deadpanned.] Anyway eggs are easy and they're cheap and sometimes you can break up monotony with ramen...and put an egg in it.

[Sometimes you're just poor and this is how you exist as a human.] Can't say I don't appreciate having easy access to stuff here though.

You know me. Always willing to do my part to help others.

[ this time he gives junpei a real peck!!! there. less cuck. ]

Well, I can't judge, I eat mostly cereal and take-out when I make it to my apartment. [ he'll give junpei that much? dick is just a mess of a human ]

Thank you for your service. [There's a pleased sound with the peck.]

So what I'm hearing is we're both really bad at eating real meals. [He doesn't care, but he's eating his eggs with a little more ease now.] Kinda feel weird thinking about how this place changed a lot of how I spend my days.

My schedule's normally a little too packed for meal planning. [ he looks amused, finishing up his eggs ] But here... well, we've got time and resources.

[ and so much nothing to do. god. is this how vacations are minus the death. it's wild ]

Yours and mine both. Even without the superhero thing most of my cases eat up my time between traveling and research. Here...I like having a choice who and what I spend my time on.

Maybe someday I'll actually take a cruise on a ship for my own enjoyment. [i.e. NOT A FUCKING MURDERGAME.]

[ dick. beams a bit at the first part, okay. hes pleased ]

Really? I'm planning to stay off boats for at least three years after all this.

I said someday! Like when I'm in my late sixties and considering a life of retirement before realizing that's not happening.

...but I could be convinced in maybe three years anyway. [It's a joke, but the idea is there. He plans on finding Dick again someday after this is over.]

[ dick's laughing at the first part ]

You'd make the worst old man. [ but.. ] It doesn't have to be a boat. Pretty sure I heard people can have vacations anywhere.

[ it doesn't have to be three years either, maybe. ]

Whatever. [He's rolling his eyes but in a way that suggests he knows he'd literally just be an annoying grouchy old man. Gestures lightly to VLR. But alas. Instead...he hums in thought.]

Can't really remember the last time I've had a vacation. Maybe I'm out of practice. I'm not even sure where I'd want to go...but I'm open to suggestions.

[There are things they both have to do when they get home, but planning for a potential future is something he finds himself doing with other people anyway. So why not?]

I ... don't know that I've ever taken a vacation. [ hm. ] Was planning to, but I wound up here instead, so... I'd say anything we do has to be better than this one.

[ who's this we, ]

I think I could agree with that. [...who is this we? Give him a second to grab his coffee and take another drink while playing this as nonchalant as possible.]

Gotta be somewhere warm though. I'm not doing snow.

Shoot. There goes my planned vacation on the South Pole.

[ extremely. casual ]

Yeah, that's a vacation you can take by yourself, dude. [FUCK THAT. He knows Dick is teasing but also no. Instead, he gives him a curious look.] When I think about it, it's been a while since I've been back to Japan.

[ he laughs a bit... but looks away to sip his own cup of (now cold.) coffee ]

I have always wanted to go there for something not business related.

[ that stands for. most places, tbh ]

Well...if you happen to be there when I happen to be there, could be kind of nice. [They're making such great progress.]

[ he hums ]

But it'd be just as nice if it was anyone else here?

[ he's absolutely teasing. ]

[If he still had a cat tail it'd be lashing in annoyance.]

You're really gonna make me say it, aren't you.

[ :3? ]

Say what?

[:|]

You know exactly what.

Hmmm... Nope, don't think so. You're gonna have to spell it out.

Hm. Maybe later. [HAHA, NOPE.] But you're smart, I'm sure you can figure it out.
