Track 03: Happy Birthday, Yosuke

[princeofjunes]

ACTION: 947 Beulah St - Morning (Housemate, anyone passing by who wants to check out the commotion)

[It hadn't exactly been a year since his last birthday, but today was June 22nd. He wasn't planning on making his birthday a big deal, but apparently the town had other plans - like having him wake up in yet another strange house. This time, though, there was a woman in his bed. Next to him. One that he had children with, if the photos in the room were to be believed. Some might call having a completely subservient woman in your bed a godsend - Yosuke was nearly as freaked out as his first day in the town. Not even bothering to change out of his pajamas, he scrambled from the bed and out of the room.

Which brings us to the current time - a confused Yosuke, sitting on the curb in front of his brand new house, trying to get a hold on his brand new adult life.

Happy 18th Birthday, Yosuke. Welcome to adulthood.]

Okay, calm down. That zombie... 'wife' probably didn't do anything to me. Probably.

[He groans]

What a way to start a birthday.

PHONE - Early Afternoon - Filtered from Drones

So... this hasn't exactly been a normal day, but I guess there's not much I can do about it.

Anyone know a good place for a party? Might as well try and make today not suck somehow.

[oh, they gave him his school uniform instead of street clothes? That sucks. She pauses for a moment, unsure what to say.]

... Hehe, don't let them take that away from you! You're still young! ♪

[princeofjunes]

Hey, they went out of my way to send it to me, so they better not try and take it!

It's my old school uniform. The one from back home. It's actually not bad - I'm pretty comfortable in it.

[roadroller]

Still an improvement then! ♪

[princeofjunes]

Huge improvement - my uniform has a place for me to stick my player! And my knives!

Besides, my headphones just look weird with the clothes Mayfield has.

[roadroller]

Your knives? ♪

[what is this, Yosuke does not look nearly gangster enough.]

[princeofjunes]

[Oh yeah, he probably shouldn't throw those into casual conversation. Oops.]

Well, I could give you a big, long, awkward explanation, or I can just say they're for self defense. Up to you.

[roadroller]

Well now I'm curious... ♪

[princeofjunes]

[That's what he gets for giving her the option]

Would you believe that there's another world inside of TV's with weird monsters called shadows? My friends and I went inside the TV world back home and saved people trapped in there from the shadows. I fought with knives.

[roadroller]

Monsters in the TV? ♪

[she's .... thinking about this.]

... Did you ever fight Sadako? ♪

[princeofjunes]

[Facepalm]

No we didn't fight Sadako. Different monsters.

[roadroller]

You should draw me one. ♪

[princeofjunes]

[Wait, what?]

Hold on, I can't draw to save my life! I'm into music, not art!

[roadroller]

But a picture is worth a thousand words!! You want me to believe you, right? ♪

[princeofjunes]

There are like, hundreds of different kinds! And special ones that come from people? How am I supposed to know what you want me to draw?

[roadroller]

Hmm... how about the scariest one? ♪

[princeofjunes]

[His mind flashes back to Kanji's shadow as his face pales and his throat goes dry]

No. Pick another one.

LMFAO

[roadroller]

That bad, huh. ♪

[she seems a bit interested in his reaction. But she moves on.]

Okay, what about the biggest then? ♪

I try <3

[princeofjunes]

The biggest, huh?

[There's no way it'll turn out any good, but he might as well try]

Alright, get me a pen and paper. I'll give it a shot.

[roadroller]

Cool! ♪

[she finds these very fast. There's paper in the printer, and a pen on her desk!]

Here you go. ♪

[princeofjunes]

[Crap, that was fast. True to his word, he works at a drawing for a few minutes. When it's done, it's a terrible drawing of this]

There, that's the best I can do. Happy?

[roadroller]

[she takes the shoddy artwork and seems to study it... dang, that's a lot of arms.]

Yup, I'm satisfied....

Though to be honest, I believed you a long time ago, but it seems like I can depend on you for doing dumb things for me.

You're off to a good start in the big brother department! ♪

[princeofjunes]

[As Yosuke realizes he got played, all he can do is laugh]

Damn, looks like you got me. Guess I'll just be glad I make a decent big brother.

[roadroller]

You should be!

... And as for this, I think there's some room on the fridge. ♪

[princeofjunes]

As long as you don't put a big A or a smiley face on it, I think I can live with that.

[roadroller]

I'm not a teacher or anything! ♪
