tell me something, are you into that stuff? how did you come up with that so fast?
[ it's serious business when the words are fully spelt out. ]
n how does 'dont b nice' equate to BE WAY MEANER!? MODERATION, DUDE
[ he gripes, as though he didn't bring it upon himself.
but that answer... it's a good thing this is text because yosuke might not get away with gaping like a fool unscathed. ]
the hell? so uve been kidnapped like across... dimensions TWICE!? and they sound like some freaky cult too. srsly. kidnapping u to make u a hero?
how is your luck this bad? cant believe u were snatched in ur sleep, man, thats the worst so uve been in 3 worlds now huh... damn... now IM sorry, u must b so out of it
[ ...yeah, actually. yeah he's really out of it. but thinking too much about it is either gonna make him lose his mind or crumble in tears, and since he doesn't really feel like doing either of those he's going to brush all this off because it's the healthy thing to do. ]
don't strain yourself feeling sorry for me you'll pull a muscle
i mean what kind of weakling do u think i am!? i'll feel sorry anyway, getting thrown around that much is anyway i wont harp on it. give u a break from that stuff
i'll go with truth again. u can ask smth thatll give u a laugh if u want
one day, yosuke will learn to not bear his throat to people willing to bite! but that's not today, and yosuke doesn't think he's been lied to for any of his questions, so after a few minutes: ]
my friends leaving me behind. us growing apart or them just waking up one day and realising they don't want or need me anymore. and... well
being alone, basically
[ and then, because he knows that's a DOWNER, ]
betcha thought it was smth like waking up naked in public huh shldve asked my 2nd biggest fear. smh nice try tho
[ so yosuke chose to be honest after all... and what honesty, too. oushi can't pretend to know this kind of fear — but that's because he hadn't bothered to think past himself and his own problems for so long. his world was truly so small, and of his own doing, and he has only recently begun to really understand the value of his friends.
in his opinion, someone who already worries this much about being left behind must value his friends a lot. and that kind of friend isn't one that's easy to forget or discard.
but that kind of thing isn't something somebody really wants to hear from a stranger. especially one who has purposefully antagonized him already. ]
[ maybe he should have lied instead of admitting something like that for a game but, dammit, lying didn't feel right. it's still embarrassing, and he spends some time fretting about it after, but whatever he expected to come of it is not at all what happens. ]
yosuke. yours? wait hey ure not gonna expose me r u!
oushi and no, i'm not gonna expose you i may be mean but i'm not an asshole
i just figured [ — no matter what, so long as he was around, someone would remember yosuke. but that's not the same as being left behind, huh? — ] if i was gonna ask you such personal things, i'd at least better know your name, too
🥺 the start of a beautiful ( insert whatever they have going on)
hmmm ok oushi, ure convincing me on this mean being different from asshole thing
[ oh, that—makes sense. the order might be a bit off but isn't that typical of this place? still, yosuke snorts to himself. ]
that totally sounds like a blackmail setup man buuuut u dont seem like the type. so i look forward to asking u personal things 2 now that i kno ur name!
[ THIS GUY..... you think oushi's just some kind of delinquent?! whatever whatever he's not even gonna respond, that is totally the mature thing to do in this situation 😤 ]
