[ Cue a montage of Yusuke charging around, showering, changing, probably while Haru is on speakerphone and then barging into the living room still talking to his mother. ]
[ Akira is here, Yusuke. Sitting on the couch with his legs crossed, Morrigan rests on the cushion next to him. They both perk up at the same time when they look over to him. ]
Ready?
[ Akira is dressed nicely because this place is fancy. Sorry. He should have under-dressed, but this is something he's used to because of family stuff. ]
[ You look nice, Yusuke, but Akira does see the discrepancy between the two of them. With a soft sigh, he smiles to show that it's fine. Rising up to his feet, he heads over to their room after patting Yusuke's shoulder. ]
Wait here.
[ Not too long, he comes back with a nice blazer! It matches Yusuke's pants in color, too. It'll be a little short on the sleeves, but it'll fit fine. ]
[ It will be life-changing in that they will be very happy. Very Happy. He fishes out keys from his pockets, twirling them around his finger like his usual self. ]
No, but I thought it would be weird to take the bus while looking like this.
[ None of what you said was necessary. Akira is very much aware of Yusuke's qualms with the car, but he knows that this will be a quick and short drive. It will be seamless! Odd enough, Akira drives safe despite being a daredevil. ]
After you.
[ He heads to the door and opens it for him. A nice black car is in their driveway, beeping once to show it's unlocked now. ]
[ THANKS. It's nice and slick inside, too. It's spotless, with a little cat trinket hanging on the rear view mirror. Akira slides him, starts the engine, and they back out and start their sushi journey.
Tasteful music!! In no time, Akira brings the car into the parking lot. They're early, so there's space, but they can see a line forming at the sushi bar already. ]
[ Akira actually possesses a lot of leader-like qualities, too bad he barely uses or acknowledges them. ]
It better be.
[ THEY ARE DRESSY FOR THE OCCASION. They enter the bar and it's rather luxurious inside, not your usual sushi place. Akira processes his reservation with the hostess quickly and they're seated at a nice corner with a window.
Picking up the menu, Akira squints at the prices. They're affordable, but still on the pricey side of affordable. ]
Once they're sat down, Yusuke has a look over the menu as well, finger dragging down the choices, and hovering over the few that appeal to him. ]
I have some extra money this month from commissions over Christmas. [ He doesn't elaborate on what kind of commissions, sOMEONE funded one of them. ] But it would irresponsible to spent it all...
[ Hm. ]
There are some very tasty looking set options around the $25 mark - is that a reasonable amount?
I have a small pool of money to use for occasions like these, so I'm good... But that sounds like a good limit.
[ There's only the two of them, too. It shouldn't be hard and shouldn't burn through their wallet. It's also Yusuke's special day... So Akira has a surprise later. For now, he thumbs through the menu. ]
We can share, so let's order something different. I'll probably get the nigiri platter?
[ It looks pretty good. The waiter does slide over to ask about drinks. Akira asks for water for himself. ]
[ He's looking through the menu as well, before tapping his finger against one of the options. ]
Should I get a roll selection...? It would probably complement well. [ There are a couple of Americanised ones in the selection but it all sounds good.
Drinks are easy though. Water is always important. ]
[ Yes... And Akira is glad that he decided to save money—though before he started a life with friends, he wasn't sure what to do with it aside from spend it on some games, films, books.
But it's a lot more fulfilling spent on other. He flips over to the roll section, scanning through the descriptions. ]
[ Akira hums thoughtfully as his eyes stray to the spicy tuna roll. He does like tune... And he is training himself in the spicy art. He taps on the table once, twice.
[ It is a good, good idea. Sharing food is always good. ]
Not even a fully vegetarian style one? [ Oh. He scrolls through the menu a little further, and looks over the tempura options. ] Yes, that sounds good.
So, a nigiri platter, a roll selection with spicy tuna and eel, and a selection of vegetable tempura. Anything else?

no subject
... I'm not sure, am I?
[ He's eyeing that very fancy jacket, Akira. Does he need to change? ]
no subject
Wait here.
[ Not too long, he comes back with a nice blazer! It matches Yusuke's pants in color, too. It'll be a little short on the sleeves, but it'll fit fine. ]
no subject
--Oh, is this for me to wear?
[ So... now he can smart and put together as well. How exciting. ]
I wasn't aware this place was going to be fancy enough to require a blazer...
no subject
It's supposed to be the best sushi here, but I didn't think so, either. [ Fiddling with his bangs now. ] Until I saw some of the pictures on Yelp.
[ And then he was like Okay. That's Fine. ]
no subject
People were dressed that smartly for sushi? ... I suppose it is considered a cultural ... dish?
[ ???? Maybe? ]
no subject
[ Akira is sure the price tag comes with atmosphere and quality... He's preparing his taste buds for this. ]
I borrowed my mom's car for the occasion.
no subject
I'm not sure I've ever done fine dining, come to think of it.
[ he pauses... ]
Ah... ... is it a long drive?
no subject
No, but I thought it would be weird to take the bus while looking like this.
[ Look at them. ]
no subject
... That's true.
[ He takes a deeper than usual breath and then exhales it. It'll be fine. Akira's driving, and nothing will happen. ]
Shall we go?
no subject
After you.
[ He heads to the door and opens it for him. A nice black car is in their driveway, beeping once to show it's unlocked now. ]
no subject
Thank you.
[ ... this is a nice car, yes. And comfy. He's okay. ]
no subject

Good thing we have a reservation...
no subject
[ Perhaps those are qualities he had in that other world and other life as well as here. True leadership skills. ]
It must be good, for a queue this long.
no subject

So... How much are you willing to spend?

A roll would be cool. What are your options?
[ Have you narrowed it down, Yusuke? ]
no subject
[ He wants to get some meat based ones as well, at least one. They could get both the crab and the eel ones if they're feeling flush and decadent. ]
no subject
Okay. ]
Go big or go home—let's get eel.
no subject
So, spicy tuna roll, eel rolls... and I suppose something with some vegetables in. Cucumber?
no subject
He may also like how it feels— ]
Cucumber and avocado is in most of the rolls. [ Hmmm, but if Yusuke is looking for more veggies. ] We can order a side of tempura vegetables?
no subject
Not even a fully vegetarian style one? [ Oh. He scrolls through the menu a little further, and looks over the tempura options. ] Yes, that sounds good.
