I forgot how to make okonomiyaki too. ദ്ദി´ ˘ `)✧

[Throwback kaomoji. Just make all his favorites this Sunday, actually.]

[placation]

[ Hook, line and sinker. Maruki can't chastise him for it, not even jokingly. ]

You're really twisting my arm!

Where are you going tonight?

Ah, wait, you don't have to tell me! I'm prying again...

[enteloki]

They're doing a special reshowing of Audition. Akira and I are going to see it. You're welcome to come as well, but I think the wire scene will keep you from sleeping for days.

On that note -

I checked your location and saw you were at home. That you have been all day, actually.

With mom gone, you should go do something as well. I created a small list of places you might enjoy. Please check your email.

[placation]

[ First of all, he wouldn't tag along and crash their night. Secondly, he saw five minutes of Audition once when Akechi was watching it at far too young an age in the living room and he never wants to again. Thirdly–

Oops. Caught and called out... ]

I've had a relaxing day at home! Everyone needs those sometime.

[enteloki]

That's not incorrect. You had one.

Now check your email and pick a place to visit this evening. It won't take much of your time.

[placation]

[ It is a very

very

long list. ]

When did you have time to put this together???

[enteloki]

I've been making note of places you and mom would enjoy for some time.

Tonight, after watching you, I decided to check the hours of every establishment, find out if any special events were occurring, check for discounts or limited time offers.

Anything that does made the top half of the list.

35 and onwards are acceptable to do at any time. I put them for posterity.

[placation]

[ That's his son... Thoughtful and caring, in his own strange, slightly overbearing way. Wonder where he gets it from? ]

Thank you. Give me a few minutes to read through it.

Have you shown Rumi this list, or am I the lucky first customer? ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!

[enteloki]

You're the first - I expect you to try out some establishments and take her to the best ones.

[Guinea Pig ♥]

cries.....

[placation]

I can do that!

[ Another few minutes to look through the list, and then– ]

This jazz club looks interesting. It says there's a singer tonight.

[enteloki]

Jazz Jin?

I've gone once with Akira - it's pleasant. The owner is also the bartender and he's quite entertaining.

You'll enjoy it. Please give him my regards.

[placation]

Bartender? Are you drinking? I told you I wanted to buy you your first drink!

[enteloki]

I couldn't help myself. One thing led to another and before I knew it, I was passed out in a ditch.

I'm joking, of course.

While he sells alcoholic beverages, I always choose the non-alcoholic ones. They're fairly colorful and the flavors mix well.

[placation]

Thank goodness! You scared me for a minute... "( – ⌓ – )

It's all the way in Kichijoji. Do you want me to pick up anything for you while I'm out there?

[enteloki]

No, though if you want to pick up anything for yourself, I would suggest it. The area has many newly established businesses and plenty of vendors to eat at.

You don't need to worry about me - I'm self-sufficient.

[A beat, and-]

For the most part.

Stop making that face.

[HE CAN PREDICT THE LOOK.]

[placation]

I'm not making a face!

[ He was definitely making a face. ]

I know that you're mostly self-sufficient. And I know that I don't need to get you anything. I just want to!

You'll never be too old for a little treat ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

[ Is he being embarrassing on purpose now because Akechi called him out on his face. Yes. Maybe. Yeah. ]

1/2

[enteloki]

[enteloki]

[He does want a little treat.]

Then I challenge you to find something new. An item or food that neither of us has seen or eaten before - please get two.

You'll have to search for some time, but I'm confident you can manage.

[placation]

I'm going to be out all night! That's almost an impossible task! I'll fall asleep on the last train home and wind up in Ikebukuro!!!

[enteloki]

You can find an internet or manga cafe to sleep in.

Have you ever done that before? It's an interesting experience.

[placation]

When I was a much younger man, yes, occasionally...

Wait. Have you?

[enteloki]

Yes, once.

Or perhaps twice.

Not of my own choice, of course. It's not an ideal situation and I don't particularly like the chairs or bedding. It's all uncomfortable, but well-

Things happen, I suppose.

[placation]

[ !? ]

WHAT

If you're stuck somewhere after the trains stop running, call me! I'll come pick you up! I don't own a car in Tokyo for my health! And I don't want you staying in manga cafes!!!

[ PAPA WILL PICK YOU UP AKECHI PLEASE ]

[enteloki]

[HE KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN. OH, he can see his dad's face clear as day.]

You don't need to. It was a valuable learning experience, the first time.

The others, well-

[He blames Kurusu.]

If I were truly in trouble, I would ask for your help. Besides, they're perfectly safe and I was only there for a few hours.

I even called you from one - it was the day I was telling you about One Kick Man.

[placation]

[ And in the ten minutes or so that it takes for Maruki to get his stuff together so he can leave and head for the train to Kichijoji...

He thinks about it, and it's all true. They are perfectly safe. And Akechi is a sensible young man who knows a concerning amount of information about true crime. There's no real danger in these little jaunts he has around the city. Breathe, Takuto... ]

You're right...

I'm sorry I panicked (シ_ _)シ

I wonder if this is how our parents felt when we first went off to college. Maybe the lack of cell phones was a good thing.
