Welcome to week two, Teens Who Are Definitely Searching for Love!

Hopefully everyone got a lot of rest over the weekend, and are bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the upcoming week, because there are a few things of interest this week.

But first, some changes of note in the house!

First: there is a giant rectangular box on the living room table, addressed to Lessing. It is a care package. The only thing in it is his sword.

There is some Bauernbrot bread on the counter. Ask Lessing about that too.

There is now a hot tub near the pool. It’s large enough to seat about six teens comfortably, but you can get more in there if you really try for some reason.

Okay I think that’s everything. Additionally, Tsukasa is here early this week! He’s looking pretty perky, seemingly recovered from the Match Ceremony, and he’s got some interesting info to share with everyone.

[ Oh, so he can't help with the lists... that's a shame. Still: ]

Well, maybe, I still feel bad you can't really hang out with us most of the time...

[ Isn't it lonely?! The rest of them have fifteen other people in the house to hang out with all the time, but this must be a job for Tsukasa. He wants him to feel included :( ]

Here, just lean down. It landed on you, so I gotta.

[ Rerolling would be taking the easy way out??? Besdies, the first spin was the worst and scariest one; now he's slowly becoming a little more confident. ]

[Josuke is so cute... of course he can't help, they're for the contestants to get to know each other!

Still.

He tilts his head at that, blinking a little, but he does obediently lean down a bit.

???]

Like this?

[haircared]

[ Perfect! Josuke nods, leans over and up a bit from where he's sitting, and puts his hand on Tsukasa's opposite cheek so he can pull him closer. All so that he can give him a firm, several-seconds-long kiss on the cheek. Giving the homies a lil kiss on the cheek goodnight is light work no reaction... well, maybe a little bit of a reaction, his ears are pink. But he's a pretty affectionate person, as the show has probably already captured, so he doesn't think there's anything bad about this, as long as all parties are okay with it. ]

There, that oughta do it. Thanks, man.

[aspirings]

[................???????

Oh......................

That was........... so cute.

Tsukasa leans into the cheek kiss when he figures out what's happening, and then:]

Higashikata! Such a beautiful display of brotherly love! [UWAAAAUGH...] Thank you!!

[He is............. crying. Not a lot and not seriously at all just OVERCOME with EMOTION.

sorry]

[makeine]

[ ... ]

You're so cute, Tsukasa-kun.

[aspirings]

[help

he recovers from the tears way too fast. This must happen a lot.]

Hm? Thank you, I think...?

[makeine]

[ hello???? ]

No "I think"s allowed, Host-san! Say thanks with your whole chest! A beautiful young woman's calling you cute!

1/2

[aspirings]

[but does he want to be cute..............

Regardless, he kind of reacts automatically to that, because Anna always knows exactly which buttons of his to push.]

Ah! Sorry!

Thank you very much! I'll strive to be ever cuter in the future!

2/2

[aspirings]

[... wait

does he even want to be cuter]

[makeine]

[ he's so easy it makes nukumizu seem like a challenge. ]

[haircared]

[ OH, NO... HE MADE HIM CRY........... this icon's time to shine

Josuke blinks, looking an even mix of concerned but also gently amused. With a slightly helpless laugh: ]

Come on — a kiss isn't worth crying over, no matter how good it is.

[ reaching out to pat him on the back... ]

[aspirings]

[Thanks, bro..... anyway he recovers from those tears very quickly. Not like, suspiciously fast--they weren't crocodile tears--but fast in the way that one might suspect this happens... a lot.......]

It was just very kind of you to make sure I was included, even though it was at no gain for yourself!

[haircared]

[ Josuke waves a hand carelessly. ]

Don't even mention it. Some people might think I only care about winning when it comes to games, [ GLANCE AT THE CAMERA ] but I've got a heart, too. You should play with us more often, Tsukasa.

[aspirings]

Ah, well...

[He can only ruin so much footage, he thinks... but what's the harm in sometimes?]

I'll join in when I can! It's been a wonderful opportunity being able to get to know everyone here more.
