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.

... You don't have to look so panicked, I can just kiss you on the cheek.

[boneface]

[ Oh.... that's reasonable. That's a super reasonable response to his unreasonable assumptions? He is, uh, mildly disappointed but it's probably better to get a kiss cheek than anything else. ]

It's not that I don't wanna!

[ ahhhh ]

I'm just — I'm shy?

[singurarity]

... Have you and Wednesday not--

[boneface]

[ THE THREADS HAVEN'T PROGRESSED THERE YET.... ]

We're — we're gettin' there.

[ At this point, just blame it on Ryuji. ]

[singurarity]

... [ Pats his back. ]

There's not really any rush.

[boneface]

[ Thank you, bro....... ]

It's hard when you've only just met someone and now you wanna kiss 'em but is it weird to kiss 'em because you've been told you're supposed to date or because you really wanna date or ... or just... ahhhh

[singurarity]

I don't think it's weird. You liked her before you even knew you were a match, right? So wanting to kiss her hasn't changed.

[ She's got you, bro. ]

[boneface]

[ What a bro...! ]

Yeah, you're right. This whole thing is kinda complicated, huh? We can still kiss though, I don't mind doing that with you. It doesn't make me nervous at all.

[ which is... a good thing?? ]

[singurarity]

... Sometimes, I wonder if you remember I'm a girl...

[boneface]

[ ... :D? ]

'Course I remember! But you're also my bro, so...

[ finish the sentence, ryuji ]

[singurarity]

So...?

[boneface]

[ ... ah. ]

So, I guess I just... don't think of you like... that? You're like... [ hmmmm. ] Oh, Futaba! You're like my friend Futaba. She's great but she's got her own stuff going on. And we're just kind of like, ya know, buddies.

[ Could not say Ann, Makoto, or Haru because like. Would. ]

1/2

[singurarity]

[ Why does this feel like she is not being viewed as attractive at all :') ]

[singurarity]

[ Oh, well!

She'll just lean in swiftly to leave a kiss on Ryuji's cheek. ]

That's for the best, anyway.

[boneface]

[ That definitely short circuits his brain for a moment and he looks shocked before he blushes up to his forehead and nods his head. ]

Y-Yeah! For the best!

[ wait, what's for the best? he doesn't even know, he's just agreeing to agree ]
