Track 2: Well, this is awkward.

ACTION: THAT CAFE WHERE RURI WORKS

[Ever since waking up in his bed safe and sound, Yosuke has been more than confused. How can death really not matter? What can they do, when the town can turn people against each other so easily? Did he really take a bullet for Chie?

Wracked by confusion and uncertainty, Yosuke isn't sure where to turn. Souji is the obvious choice, but with Chie involved... he needs a little time before he seeks out his partner. Ultimately, he decides that the best course of action is to try and take his mind off of things for a while.

So, making good on his promise, he wanders the city until he finds what he thinks is the cafe Ruri told him about and walks in the door.]

Lets see, I think this is the place...

[He leans back in his chair a bit.]

You know, I almost wish I could take you home just to see if there really is any sort of science behind it. I'm not going to pretend that I really understand just how everything happened the way that it did. I think the abilities that I had were closer to magic than anything else, though.

"I honestly wouldn't mind going to another world. Mine is home but, honestly as long as I had Omoikane I could survive just about anywhere, and seeing a big forest or magic would be fascinating."

[princeofjunes]

Yeah? Maybe when we find a way out of here we'll figure out a way to let you visit. It's just a small town, but we'd make it fun for you!

"Maybe. If it had a beach I'd say it sounded almost perfect."

[princeofjunes]

A beach? We might need to take a train for that. Man, I wonder if the girls have ever even been out that far.

"There's something about the sound of the ocean at night."

[She shrugs a little]

"The pond here just doesn't quite do it."

[princeofjunes]

Oh yeah? I wouldn't really know. Jeez Ruri, for someone not interested in dating you sure sound like a romantic.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"How so? I find the sound makes it easier to relax. As for dating, things like that just confuse me."

[princeofjunes]

I don't know, it's just the sort of thing you'd expect a romantic person to say. Listening to the ocean, watching the stars... that sort of stuff. Maybe it's just where I'm from.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Astronomy is very fascinating. Still, even if I were a romantic would it matter?"

[princeofjunes]

[Teasing mode, engaged!]

Well, it might make you even cuter, Princess.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"....I see. Please, call me Ruri. Titles are kind of dehumanizing."

[princeofjunes]

Okay Ruri, I can do that. Teasing you about it anymore wouldn't be fun anyway.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"That and I'd have to have to start calling you Mr. TV."

[princeofjunes]

Mr. TV? Really? I thought I might at least get a Mr. Handsome...

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Why would you want something so cheesy sounding?"

[princeofjunes]

It was a joke, Ruri.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Oh. I see. Humor sometimes eludes me."

[princeofjunes]

It's okay, it was a bad joke anyway.

[He stretches a bit and looks at his nearly empty cup.]

Anyway, I should be thanking you. This really took my mind off things.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"We aim to serve here."

[She bows]

[princeofjunes]

I think I'll definitely be coming back again.

[He stands and gives Ruri a wink]

But only when my favorite server is here.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Hopefully I'll have a cuter outfit next time."

[princeofjunes]

You sure you're not trying to seduce me?

[He laughs a bit and gives a wave as he heads for the door.]

Catch you later, Ruri.

"Have a good afternoon Yousuke."
