PRIVATE OC. / READ THE RULES

[patawad-archive-deactivated2021]

from: @daijitsu​ hi ;)

he levels an inquisitive gaze at the stranger, turning his attention away from the pair of volleyball shoes resting on his palms and the agitated employee frantically catering to the endless deluge of customers. “ hi. sorry, do you need anything? ”

[daijitsu]

        “ as a matter of fact, i do! ” 

It has been quite awhile since the last time Daisuke employed such underhanded tactics. Yet, much like riding a bike, the skill never rusts –– his eyes are bright and glistening as a sunbeam, the particular quirk of his lips looks adorable. Whether or not the sports guy gives in Dai’s puppy face is, however, a completely different matter.

        “I noticed you were checking out these super cool shoes. Clearly you have good taste in... sportswear. Unfortunately, my friend is going to buy them. They’re, uh, right at the cash register... So if you could pretty please hand them back...” 

[daijitsu]

kicks u

        why did the fads of tumblRP 2015 decide to log in at the same time? a mess

[daijitsu]

i wonder if you'll see this. i'm an old friend. i was browsing through an old blog of mine and was filled with happy memories of you.

who is this 👀

[daijitsu]

nilisms replied to your post:

for Christmas give me the sweet release of death plz

          “ have you tried               checking in 7/11? ” 

[exseele]

     ‘ take this. happy holidays. ’ and unceremoniously is a red box of chocolate passed to him. the fact that she’s trying to get rid of said chocolates is very transparent.

[daijitsu]

           “ oh... thank you! ” 

Something about the woman’s frenzied haste had prompted all kinds of questions behind Daisuke’s stare. Nevertheless he chose to keep them for himself, along with the delightful-looking box. From of his backpack the boy plucked out a pair of stylish, if not slightly absurd glasses with the number “2018” attached over the red frame and placed them on the freckled beauty.

           “ –– There you go! These will make all of your friends turn green at how festive you look. ” 

[daijitsu]

:eli:

             “ i don’t know who you are,                but I hope 2018 is awful for you. ” 

[daijitsu]

u? here again? truly a miracle

that’s RICH coming from YOU

❝ how would you know if it’s supposed to rain or not, then? ❞

his  rain - drenched  guest regards the package he carries in a way unfitting of someone who cared for their possessions. it’s curious―  &  so is he when he thinks of the reasons why he would drag himself outside in such unforgiving weather with naught but a box of something he didn’t even care for. 

❝ say―  if you don’t mind my asking, what’ve you got there? ❞

            “ ...disappointment. ” 

Had he been just a bit more dramatic, crocodile tears would have blanketed the shop’s floor. But even if his predicament seemed awfully numbing, Daisuke didn’t let himself betray his dignity completely. With the saddest eyes known to existence, he looked at the worried shopkeeper and popped the box open.

            “ It’s... it’s my order from the Huff & Puff Angel Cream Factory. You know, the bakery with the really good cakes... Somebody messed up my order –– I wanted a Banana Paradise Pie but got something with mangoes. And I don’t like mangoes... ” 

[daijitsu]

hand on head

He almost connected his fist with the stranger’s face –– thankfully his brain managed to register Lance’s mug before doing anything that could require emergency hospital services.

         “ oh, hey lance. what’s up? I haven’t seen you around in awhile. ” 

[daijitsu]

oshiields:

❝ ‘cause she’s my little sister now. i’ve adopted her. ❞

@sukoushi​:

yessss heck him up big bro

          “ this why you guys will never have nice things. ” 

[daijitsu]

oshiields:

don’T SASS HER

           “ why are you guys ganging up on me. :( ”

[daijitsu]

hey old man

              “ what is it you want? ” 

[daijitsu]

sukoushi:

       ❛   ne ne, bts’ popularity resonates with not just the youths but with all kinds of demographics due to their versatility !  their unashamed efforts to sing about the hardships of society !  they’re loved easily regardless of sophistication which is more than i can say about you right now…   ❜

           “ ... it’s just pop music. I can assure you that nobody is checking for their, um, “socially enlightening” lyrics. Honestly –– young people like yourself are so easily impressed by such cheesy superficiality. N-Not that I’m old or anything, but y’know... Oh well, you know what people say? You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it appreciate things for what they truly are. ” 

[sukoushi]

@daijitsu: Abs are definitely better! Abs will always be trendy, unlike that other thing!

        ❛   d-don’t be ridiculous, both will always be trendy !  if anyone is a fad, it’ll be you.   ❜

[daijitsu]

               “ huh? that doesn’t make sense at all. I might have peaked already, but my relevancy was never in the hands of fourteen-year-old tweens! Only sophisticated people have liked me, hmph. ” 

[daijitsu]

sukoushi:

False

              “ but it’s true! Pinkblack may have only four songs out, but they are all nothing short of stellar! The same can’t be said about Beyond The Sound, who have only one good song! ” 

[daijitsu]

you come into mY HOUSE and disrespect MY BOYS

                “ pinkblack are,                   like, way better. ” 

[daijitsu]

with its outward appearance not matching the endless displays of blooming flowers that filled its interior, gladio could see why the hesitancy to accompany him ensued. that, and how his own outward image could certainly be thought of as the opposite of what a flower shop owner would tend to portray. regardless, gladio shut the door behind him, preventing the wind from blowing more of the furious rain from pouring into his shop.

❝ thanks. ❞  response is simple because he doesn’t know how to make dragging his guest out of the rain any less awkward. that is, until he deigns to make light of his situation.  ❝ what were you thinking? goin’ outside without an umbrella today, of all days. ❞  he mentions it because the forecast had brought up a self-proclaimed  ‘ storm of the century, ‘  –  the reason there’s no business when usually, there would be. if his guest really needed to be anywhere else, he’d have to wait a while.

           “ i don’t usually watch the forecast... ” 

Sheepishly he offered an explanation, not particularly worried about what impression his lies made. He scooted into a corner mostly free of overhanging plants and stared into his box sadly. Within this package hid the source of his grandiose disappointment – arguably the epitome of everything wrong with humanity. What his box contained was nothing more than pure incompetence, negligence and disregard towards art.

           “It doesn’t even matter anyway...”
