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.]

You sure you've been alright? We haven't really talked much since your birthday. I've been worried.

"There was the whole truth telling thing, but honestly I don't keep many secrets that aren't stupid so that wasn't an issue. Mostly just work and working on my map of this place."

[princeofjunes]

Yeah... I just tried to lay low during that - I didn't really want to know everyone's stuff, you know?

But if you say you're good, then I'll take your word for it!

"A bit bored but.. Business has been slow... Even if it is swimsuit week, but what can you do?"

"At least you didn't lock yourself in the bathroom like several people did, that made the whole event kind of annoying."

[princeofjunes]

Wait, hold on. Priorities. Swimsuit week?

Right now?

If I go down there this week and see you at work you'll be in that really cute bikini?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"And the cat ears you gave me. Its been so hot its made things easier."

[princeofjunes]

So... I think I might swing by sometime. You know, just check things out. Catch up, have some tea, ogle a waitress. The usual.

So what was that about people in bathrooms?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"They didn't want to tell their secrets and there is water and a toilet in the bathroom, so I suspect its a good place to lock yourself."

[princeofjunes]

What about the whole food thing? Or do people not need that anymore?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Ok, to Scott... 10 bags of Funyuns is food."

[princeofjunes]

... he locked himself up for a week with ten bags of Funyuns.

I guess that's one way to do it?

"Something like that. I didn't say it wasn't stupid, and honestly, most of the time I was at Miss Saber's house. Not having a bathroom is a major inconvenience."

[princeofjunes]

Yeah, no kidding. It was nice of her to let you crash there, though. You could have stayed at my place if you wanted - hell, maybe you did. I spent so much time at work I wouldn't have noticed.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Actually, Rin did have me over for a night. I was wondering if you were going to yell at us for being loud, but she said you weren't in."

[princeofjunes]

For being loud?

Do I even want to know what you two troublemakers were up to? And don't say a pillow fight.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"You probably don't. Its not all that interesting."

[princeofjunes]

You know, hearing that it was boring is actually kind of a letdown. I figured between you and Rin, you'd come up with something crazy.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"We were singing. Like I said, not terribly interesting."

[princeofjunes]

Yeah? I forgot, you're pretty good with your voice. I never really connected the dots to singing.

You'll have to give me a demonstration sometime.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"If you want I can show you several of the videos I was cast in."

[princeofjunes]

I'd love to. Sign me up!

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Next time you come to the cafe then I'll show them."

[princeofjunes]

Jeez, you just keep making the deal better and better. First a bikini, now a bikini and a show? I was going to go out in a little bit - are you working tonight? Or should I stop by tomorrow before I run my errands?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I'm at work tonight and tomorrow. There really isn't a whole lot else to do."

Skip to the cafe?

[princeofjunes]

Alright! I'll see you in a little while then. Count on it!
