Yusuke takes the jacket and turns it over in his hands a little cautiously, avoiding the spikes everywhere on the sleeves and... what even is this jacket. Heck. ]
I have no idea. I haven't seen it in any of my memories, and it doesn't even match what the other me usually wears.
Yusuke turns the jacket back and forth, looking more and more confused. When Akira shuffles off the sofa and to their room, Yusuke stands up and tugs the jacket on. It... fits him. Which is still weird.
Akira comes back with his box which feels a bit heftier than Yusukeās, but his eyes glint when he sees his friend fit it on. It... Hm. Akira stands in the living room, box under one arm and other hand stroking his chin as if appraising Art. ]
I think so, too... Wouldnāt you be too conscious to sit down?
[ He goes to take his rightful spot in on the couch, still staring at the spikes. Cool, but strange, indeed. Crossing his legs by the ankles, he leans back and leaves his box (itās a bit bigger than Yusukeās) between them. ]
[ His full Persona 5 Dancing Star Night default outfit. From some parts of his school uniform, to the red gloves... and the hip hop shoes. Akira is focused on the spikes, though. Touching them again, he gauges how bad it would be for their furniture. ]
It should be fine since our couch isnāt leather. The spikes donāt that sharp at allāas long as no one just abruptly drags you across it, anyway.
[ He listens as he looks at the shirt at different angles. It is his style and he does think the same thing as Yusuke, but he never thought about wording it so carefully— ]
Have you ever thought about dabbling into fashion?
3/11 /CLAIMS PAGE THREE IN THE NAME OF THESE DISASTERS
It's the first thought that crosses Sanji's mind by the time he's at Yusuke's door one Sunday afternoon, openly scowling like it's dared to show him the future in all of its ugly glory. Call it defeatist, but to him? Life dishes out hard lessons for a reason. Who in their right mind wouldn't want to avoid a mess -- and in his case, keep his relationship with Yusuke casual and friendly instead of delving into the shit show that ends up being his love life?
... Which at this point is him marrying himself to his soured pride; a fact he can admit to, if only grudgingly. Yusuke gave him plenty of opportunities to back out, including last weekend, but Sanji refused, so... time to buck up already.
Besides, he reminds himself while knocking his knuckles against the door, wiping his expression into neutral -- it's a date, not a torture session.]
[ Good to see that Sanjiās going into this with a sense of positivity and excitement.
It would be nice if, when Yusuke opens the door, Sanji didnāt look more like he was about to attend his own funeral instead of what should hopefully be a pleasant enough day at the very least. It really instills confidence in a person.
He looks a little thoughtful, before leaning in the door frame with a slight frown. ]
If you are still in need of a āget out of jail freeā card I will do my best not to be offended.
You could look a little less like this a trip to the gallows.
[ But he sounds less annoyed and more amused, so probably nothing to worry about. He steps out and shuts the door behind him, giving Sanji a curious look. ]
Late? [ But this is the time they were supposed to meet, wasn't it? ]
