Hey guys, it's Yosuke. I just thought I'd check in, see how everyone's doing. I know it's been sort of rough lately, so...

[PARK - EVENING - OPEN]

[He's been coming here a lot lately. It really isn't a bad place to spend time. The park is usually nice and peaceful, and it gives him plenty of time to think. To reflect on his time there, to figure out what he wants, to try and piece together what bits he's learned about the town. Really, he can think about whatever strikes him that particular day.

Today it seems the focus is on himself - him, and the choices he's made recently and not so recently. Decisions he's made, decisions he hasn't made. Time he's spent waiting. Other people he's heard about. Is he really doing what's best? If he has to be stuck in this town, doesn't he deserve to be as happy as he can be? Is he doing what he can to that end? Is the road he's on the right one - hell, is it even going anywhere?

Too bad there are no easy answers.]

Hey, that just means I'm observant! And considerate!

And I didn't even charge you for that swimming suit. You're lucky to have a friend like me, Chie.

[He can joke right back as he falls more or less into his comfort zone as far as Chie is concerned]

Hah, is that how you remember it?

Because I think Yukiko and I paid you back pretty fairly for it. We got even, at least.

[princeofjunes]

And I got my money's worth, so I guess I can't really complain.

[And not complaining about seeing her in a bikini is the closest she'll get to a compliment right now]

So, what do you want? For your birthday.

[counterstrikes.livejournal.com]

I don't think there's anything I really want in this town. Souji's already getting some greaves made for me.

[princeofjunes]

Yeah? Guess I just have to get creative then. I'll figure something out.

Suddenly, my feeling of dread just got worse.

[princeofjunes]

Have a little faith! I know exactly what you need. Easiest birthday shopping ever.

[counterstrikes.livejournal.com]

It better not be something weird...

[princeofjunes]

Well not anymore.

No life sized cardboard cutout of me for Chie!
