枝葉末節 ① ― 髙橋 光世 - 恋愛

Kogane's obsession over his brothers Seikin and Kyou made it difficult for him to fall in love with someone else and this issue is compounded by his brothers being protective of the youngest sibling, Seikin moreso than Kyou. Even if the youngest brother were to have a different mindset, it isn’t easy to bond with someone when he rarely meets people offline. Even on the times where he is offline like say during dance, capoeira or fencing classes, he is quite standoffish with little to nothing to say. He does have tons of friends online but doesn’t really bother meeting them at all.

So, the only times I can imagine Kogane even starting to have the notion of bonding with someone else is when Seikin and/or Kyou is/are taken. Or an AU where Kogane’s upbringing and the relationship between the three siblings are different. Or main verse but they met when the three of the siblings are doing a band gig (he stands in for Kyou as a fellow twin though mostly for the parts Kyou and Seikin can’t do, in other words mostly dancing, screaming, growling and rapping). Seikin, if taken, might even make the effort to push Kogane away from him and onto someone else.

Speaking of 'Seikin if taken', Seikin's partner is also a factor of how willing he is to find a partner since the older brother's situation changing affects the twins as well. Even more so if Kyou has something in mind at the same time too. For example...

With @gloryundimmed's Kai (a deviation of the main verse where the siblings decide to take over a family branch as la ma.fia), Seikin and the twins took over a branch family their uncle once led and the three siblings rule as a triumvirate. Kogane wouldn't really bother looking for a partner in this when he still has Kyou and the triumvirate. If anything, he might follow his parents' footsteps and take up an arranged marriage. Unlike his older brother and his twin, Kogane has no qualms dirtying his hands over a job the branch family needs done and is the branch's family go-to.

With @hellbloom's Loux, Seikin was given the offer of immortality. Kogane still has Kyou but honestly... the twins had a falling out over the topic of immortality and the older twin Kyou decided to take Kogane's spot of next in line as patriarch instead. With how Seikin and Loux acts, the youngest brother felt like he was forgotten and that feeling lingered more than he would like to admit. Enter Pheo, they somehow got together, much to Seikin's surprise. Cause Seikin genuinely did not expect his younger brother on his own accord to find a guy like that.

With @soulcarved's Eito, Kogane is still pretty much the same guy as he was before. But much more of a busybody, he'd be in Seikin and Eito's way when he can (Eito, you gotta be less scared of him or you are not gonna get away from him). Going so far as to spent time with Eito's twin Aika in order to dig up dirt that he would not have gotten otherwise while genuinely wanting to spend time with her. Though since Eito is Seikin's type, the older brother took much more effort to hide himself and his boyfriend, leading to Kogane spending more time with Kyou and Aika instead.

With @kisumitenderly's Kisumi, Kogane absolutely could not stand this guy. Not only is this pink haired guy NOT Seikin's type at all, this guy could not tell him and Kyou apart. Yeah sure, identical twins but seriously? Seikin did not help either and Kyou decided to pursue music full force. This left the younger brother alone to doubt his self-worth. Giving up Seikin took a lot outta him, so he decided to game with Hayato as much as possible only for Kogane's dumb ass to have a crush on him. It's not like he wanted to have that crush but since he has it, he's gonna try his damnest.

I try not to make Kogane an incel goober but since Seikin is just that perfect flashy yaoi hands snazzy golden blond guy and Kogane really is the opposite of Seikin and tends to be in the older brother's shadow. Someone gotta convince Ko that he is his own being and that he needs to use his own words and act too instead of letting Seikin do all the talking and doing tbh. Beneath the surface, Kogane is not just some dirty blond boring kid but someone who can be fiercely loyal, still a bit awkward yet lovable kind of dude. Just remind him that his older brother isn't everything there is in this world.

Zdzisław would receive the following LINE messages from Vivian.

[text]: Hey, Gigi, do you want me to save you some mapo tofu? ( ╹ -╹)ʔ

[text]: I'm planning on cooking dinner tonight, so if you want, I could put aside leftovers for you.

[text]: But if a senpai of yours is planning to treat you to ramen or something, I don't mind only making enough for myself! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧ Just let me know ahead of time and I'll have you covered.

※ Chciałbym wiedzieć wszystko o Japonii. ※

The reply was not immediate. Though 15 minutes is still pretty quick.

[メッセージ] just mapo tofu or you meant with rice beneath it?

[メッセージ] i'll take the leftovers without the rice but if you made them to a 1:1 ratio then lemme think about it a bit more, it's spicy, right? i love spicy!

[メッセージ] you sure you can make a marubiya mapo tofu without burning the place down, right? fire extinguisher nearby?

※ Pozdrawiam - Zdzisław ※

“I wouldn’t know, Lord Holton.” – she smiled – “After all, here in Britain, it is you who represent high society.” – of course, Nunnally was teasing him; perhaps even enjoying it a little too much – “If anything, back then I would have been considered a husband hunter: a rich American heiress marrying into the peerage. We would probably both have ended up unhappy…”

The moment the words left her lips, she realized how improper they sounded. Or rather how easily they might be misinterpreted, given the rumours she had heard about him – “It is a lucky thing for both of us that such times are well behind…” – Nunnally smiled again, attempting to cover her embarrassment, though it was plain she had not thought through what she had said. What was meant as a joke, an admittedly foolish one, might well have been taken as an implicit jab.

“But in all honesty, it was only my maternal grandmother who held any title. My grandfather was merely a wealthy American businessman, and while my father’s family does have obvious links to the French aristocracy, and even a recognizable crest, it is all in the distant past. Of little importance to where I come from.” – Nunnally was not sure how widely known it was that her grandmother had long regretted marrying her grandfather and leaving her former life behind, nor how firmly she had intended to see her granddaughter married to someone with a title. For many reasons, that ambition had also suited her father. The heir and the spare; he would take the spare and be perfectly content with it.

Nunnally felt a quiet pride in that, perhaps more than she ought. Then again, it might simply have been how she defined her grandmother: a woman devoted to etiquette, decorum, and the intricacies of the peerage. Those values had been instilled in Nunnally from an early age, yet she still wished for something more; at least for a time, before returning to New York.

“I shall wait for it most impatiently.” – she added, offering another polite pleasantry. In truth, she didn’t expect he would ever invite her again, nor would she be the one to pursue such a connection. She asked after his parents, as courtesy required, and when he returned the question, she laughed again. Perhaps a little too brightly, drawing more attention than she intended (again).

“You are quite mistaken about my grandmother…” – she continued lightly – “I cannot imagine she would ever choose to rest. Nor would she consider me ready to manage without her guidance. Though I might disagree. So you may count yourself fortunate that your parents are more inclined to share their responsibilities… unless, of course, you prefer to devote your time to other pursuits.”

She tilted her head slightly, her tone shifting to one of curious interest.

“Is teaching the only thing that interests you?”

[nihiliszm]

⊳   𝖢𝖺𝗋𝗉𝖾 𝖣𝗂𝖾𝗆 , 𝗊𝗎𝗂𝖺 𝖳𝖾𝗆𝗉𝗎𝗌 𝖥𝗎𝗀𝗂𝗍 !   ⊲

⊳   Hm. If only. I am merely a baron who has yet to even inherit the title. ⊲

The lack of a formal title aside, his parents' and grandparents' connections are more than enough to have him immersed around people from the upper échelons. Surely, the other knows what it is like as they are in the same circumstances. Though, if the marriage she is talking about were to be a real proposal, it wouldn't be Welkin the one getting married but his grandfather, or more recently, his father, who isn't all that young either. There would a huge age gap between them. Not that the lecturer is any younger to be quite frank. The Brit held his tongue, this joke clearly did not need to be worse than it already is, even if it was to clear up that misunderstanding. The thought of Nunnally being his mother definitely would make both of them unhappy.

⊳ ... Representation... certainly a heavy weight on one's shoulders. ⊲

Welkin bit his tongue after that. Truth be told, he was out of touch with parts of the circle he once shared with Nunnally when they were very young. Some refused association with someone like him who married a nobody and worse, it was a gay marriage. Yet, the Brit did not regret it as painful as the divorce is. The damage to the family's asset were negligible, but the damage to his personal wealth and the family's reputation? It might be bigger than anyone letting on regarding it.

⊳ Indeed. The past is behind us. ⊲

That remark left him to be terse, his lips pursed. Even if she knows of his marriage and divorce, the blond could not gauge her thoughts on it and decide to be cautious. Yet perhaps it is the familiarity they had during their youth and that the other is not a fellow Brit, Welkin is much more direct and less conflict-avoidant than usual like how he was during his lecture. This frankly leaves the blond feeling a little uncomfortable out of the bounds of his comfort zone but it certainly does not feel right to approach her like any other even if he felt tempted to do so. Too much time between when they last met, even with a connection of families between them. Though there is still hope for what there is between them to warm up eventually, just not as quickly as one might hoped.

Welkin politely nodded as he listens to what she has to say about her grandmother. If memory serves, her grandmother's ancestors were nobles from the Huguenots who were living in Britain until hostilities for Calvinists in France went away. The blond does not recall whether her grandmother was the British who to reclaim her French nationality or was the great-grandparents that did that instead?

⊳ We'll see. Let's just enjoy what we have for today now, shall we? ⊲

Hm... said grandmother seems to be just fine with retirement far from planned then. Welkin is painfully aware of that since her grandmother is quite similar to his own grandfather. It took a major health deterioration for him to even consider and then another for his grandfather to finally delegate to his father.

⊳ How about I answer that over a cup of coffee? Chop chop now, off we go. ⊲

⊳   Yours respectfully, Welkin K. Holton    ⊲

[lured-into-wonderland]

“You really think so? Do you mean anyone would break it for me, or that anyone could do it so cleanly it’s almost comfortable to walk?” – Nunnally looked at Seikin with interest now; genuinely curious about what he meant. She assumed it might be both, but it would be better if he explained himself. Especially since the way he spoke now was harder to follow; was he trying to discourage the conversation? Even if he was, Nunnally would try to keep it going a little longer. There was no particular reason: just a whim. Though if he continued to seem cold and distant (and she couldn’t quite hold that against him), she would leave.

“Though, honestly, I find it much more difficult to interact with strangers here than at home…” – in fact, that wasn’t entirely true, but it wasn’t a lie either. She lived two different lives: one here and one at home. Here was more relaxed, yet she had forgotten how to be, how to feel at ease. So maybe it was her fault the conversation wasn’t flowing. Still, to her surprise, Seikin accepted the invitation for a drink (or perhaps just a drink?).

Did he notice her brief look of surprise?

“So, is Sakura coffee something like a cappuccino?” – she asked lightly – “…Not something you’d drink outside breakfast?” – in truth, she missed Europe; she would have preferred to be there rather than here in Japan, though it had never been her choice – “Is it very sweet?” – she added. Nunnally might try it, but she didn’t like overly sweet drinks, and adding milk to coffee wasn’t usually her preference. Still, she shouldn’t criticize him; or rather his choice. That wouldn’t be polite.

“Are you from around here?” – she asked, searching for a neutral topic to keep the conversation going – “But please, tell me if I’m bothering you.”

[nihiliszm]

» 「 光の後継者 」 «

» 「 Oh you know, men. They probably would break it for you. 」 «

Whether those men would break it as cleanly as the blond did, nobody knows. He is pretty sure some of these men are so deep in their toxic masculinity that they probably have never touched a pair of stilettos before. Yet Seikin have probably eaten enough of those straight and dl men to know they would turn head over heel for the opposite gender whenever they asked. The blond? Hmph, she's just lucky he is in a good mood and would rather be cordial than let this ruin his day.

Hopefully that one line sufficed. Seikin returned her whim with one of his own to be frank. Hearing Nunnally saying that it is hard to mingle here than at home gave the blond an impression that perhaps this one here is a little bit too sheltered and honestly if he was an heiress instead of the heir of a big family that he is right now, he would understand why. In the end, it's none of his business to probe.

» 「 Is that so? Perhaps changing your approach might help? 知らんけど。 」 «

There it is again with the Kansai dialect. Though this one is a well-known one for sure. Talk to anyone from Osaka and they would tell you all sorts of things, only to tack a shirankedo in the end so they aren't responsible for what was said. Doubled down with a 'perhaps' and a 'might' thrown in to leave no room for ambiguity. That this is merely an advice to be taken at one's own risk. The blond noticed the fleeting expression of surprise but decided to play dumb instead.

» 「 It's another coffee shop, actually. They serve coffee and toast for breakfast, but also more drinks when it is not breakfast. I don't know your tolerance for sweetness, so we'll see. There's always ordering it black and then adding to it, y'know? 」 «

The blond glances at his empty mug. Yeah, he could use another mug of coffee with some red bean paste toaster after this bland mug of tea. He didn't really notice how bland it was when he was talking with his tutor. Only realised it when he took the last sip while talking to uh... whoever this is that he has to take to somewhere else now. Since she's paying, might as well go for another round of refreshments.

Oh right, he has yet to answer that obvious question. Who in their right mind speaks the Kansai dialect when at the grand capital of Tokyo, right?

» 「 No, I am not. And sure, will do. 」 «

» 「 敬具　―　晴 」 «

[unladielike]

    Ah... ever so reliable was Zdzisław, Vivian couldn't help mustering a smile. Seriously, if it weren't for the fact he didn't swing that way, she could see him ending up with a girlfriend. Sure, he might not have been her type, but provided Zdzisław was attracted to women, he would totally have a better chance at finding love out in the real world than her. Girls liked the straightforward and dependable type, after all.

    "Sure thing!" Vivian nods. "I'll try my best to pick something good... though, even if it doesn't turn out delicious, I'll make sure to take responsibility with my stomach!" Of course, by that, she meant she would eat all the pizza slices with the topping she specifically selected.

    With that being the case, she'll then emerge to her feet while gripping the underwear she had previously worn over her head. "Alright-y, I think it's about high time I take a shower! Feel free to monopolize the living room, Gigi. Since I already had dinner, I'm just gonna be chilling in my room later," Vivian informs him before flashing him a quick thumbs up gesture using the hand not holding the panties and wandering off towards the door leading out into the hallway.

    Honestly, even if a package ultimately arrived for her while she was gone, she trusted Zdzisław would inform her about it.

[nihiliszm]

※ Chciałbym wiedzieć wszystko o Japonii. ※

※ You don't need to worry about pineapple on pizza by the way, I am fine with it. ※

No matter the topping or crust picked, it could not go wrong if it's pizza, right? Zdzisław has never heard of a bad pizza, especially if it's delivery.

※ Sure thing, guess I'll watch the news through the big screen then. See ya. ※

Though Zdzisław may seem reliable right now, he isn't perfect. As if it's retaliation for Vivian wearing underwear over her head while watching questionable anime in the living room, here he is in the same living room come Wednesday dawn, watching the first semi-final of this year's Eurovision Song Contest.

Though he has the decency to be wearing headphones at first, he was making stomping noises dancing to the first song, threw his headphones off with how good the seventh song is, leading the music to go off via the TV from that point onwards. Crisp violin and Finnish male vocals went off followed by him cheering his lungs out when the song ends. It was the bookie's favourite and he can see why with this performance!

Yet, he fell asleep on the ninth song (It's 5:10 am after all!) and only woke up in the middle of the song that he planned to watch, his country's entry in the song contest. Second last and fourteenth. What a gospel, it woke him up pretty quickly. Lady has amazing vocals and that long note at the very end, goodness!

Such is his focus on his country's entrant that he forgot the last song of the semi-final. Zdzisław swore some ghost must have possessed him cause he ended up screaming along to the song. In fluent Serbian (he speaks the language). Who cares if it's not even 6 am? You do not stay still during a screamo song, much less so during a Slavic one.

He definitely woke Vivian up. Either him or the TV. A miracle there's no noise complains. Loudly cheering that his country qualified for the final at the very last available spot at the end, Zdzisław also left the TV on, forgetting to turn it off, leaving a bright blank screen as he heads to bed right after the contests end.

Regardless how much sleep he had, Zdzisław showed up to the watch party with bags under his eyes. He tried acting like nothing had happened, only for his voice to uh, well, it works. It's just that it is obvious he was screaming stupid hours ago.

※ Pozdrawiam - Zdzisław ※

    At his subsequent question, a pensive hum proceeds to usher it's way past her throat, and within seconds, Vivian then poises a curled fist beneath her lower lip with brows furrowed.

    "Hm... I was thinking more along the lines of onigiri because Japan's 7/11 sells them at ¥138 a piece, but pizza is actually the better choice, as it would be filling enough to completely eliminate the need for us to prepare dinner," she ponders aloud.

    "Why don't you get a corn mayo one, Gigi?" Vivian went on to suggest. "Other than that, welp... matcha KitKats are an absolute must; however, I was gonna buy that along with some JagaRico, Boss Coffee, and Aloe Vera juice, so if you still have money to spare following your pizza purchase... get some Cheeza Crackers, green apple flavoured Hi-Chew, and yakidango."

    Granted, the remaining snacks and refreshments could have been matcha flavoured, but for a watch party comprising of only two people, Vivian figures it would be best for the selection to be more diverse; besides, she's sure Zdzisław wasn't as much of a matcha enthusiast compared to her. Due to this being the case, she made sure to pick out options that were relatively cheap on a university student's budget.

    "That should be enough for both of us, right?" Vivian finally questions. "And if we're still hungry afterwards, you could always make us pierogi."

[nihiliszm]

※ Chciałbym wiedzieć wszystko o Japonii. ※

※ Those... at 138 yen? I guess it would be that price when they have those 50 yen off stickers. It's still edible even after expiry time anyways. Definitely the first thing to eat during that party though. ※　Zdzisław made a silent note to buy specifically those onigiri the night before. The other stuff Vivian said she is getting is probably better off from a supermarket than the konbini or vending machine, much cheaper. The remaining three items would be bought after uni a few days before that's for sure. In fact he had no intention to leave his bed on Wednesday until the watch party.

※ Let me know the day before if you did not get what you want, I'll buy it. ※

Zdzisław isn't really particular when it comes to food, even much less so if it's for an event. No complaints even if it is all just one flavour but he sure would stop eating and drinking from the pile of monotony food after a while.

※ I plan to order a few pizzas actually, how about you pick one for the party? ※

The Pole was thinking about ordering like three of those things. Not that he loves pizzas, if anything he only likes the crust, but they do make good leftovers and he could always recycle them into pierogi fillings if he didn't feel like having leftover pizzas.

Truth be told, Zdzisław has been working long hours for a while now, taking care not to breach the 28 hours a week limit and also careful enough not to earn too much to end up in a higher tax bracket but it is definitely enough to splurge just this once on this.

※ Pozdrawiam - Zdzisław ※

biography:

At Hashima, popularly known as Battleship Island, a small abandoned island at Nagasaki Prefecture, lives a curator, hosting the island that became a small tourist attraction.

Amidst the abandoned old, bound to collapse buildings, lays a new modern building, an odd obelisk, standing three floors tall, there's only one door and no windows.

The Curator would gladly welcome any brave traveller who chose to visit his building where he shows the world in a life after people and what happens should all humans abruptly abandoned all materials to live somewhere else.

Sometimes, the Curator ventures Tokyo in his more human form under the orders of his Creator. Times like this will be challenging yet a learning experience.

mun's yappings:

back when I was still doing multi-muse canon rp, this was the first OC that popped up, this guy is a strange mix of OC and self-insert. but unfortunately he is so underused and went through several redesigns and reinterpretation that he might as well be quite new.

    Oh, so she didn't misremember; still, Vivian proceeds to pull out her phone anyways to check the schedule Zdzisław had sent to see which Wednesday might possibly work the best for her.

    "I see. And you're sure this schedule is 100% accurate? You don't have any other friends who might randomly make plans with you?" Vivian questions. Come to think of it, she suddenly realizes she had no idea who Zdzisław regularly associated with.

    Did he happen to befriend any of the university kids? And if he did, could one of them have possibly taken him out for ramen at some point? Why, considering how much cheaper ramen was in non-tourist trap locations, a pushy senpai could very well have announced he was treating and dragged him to a restaurant or something. Then again, maybe he simply kept to himself.

    "In that case... let's host our watch party next Wednesday!" Vivian finally declares before stashing away her phone. "As for Kuantan, we'd have to go during a time when you have the whole semester off. Having only a week to take in the sights would be non-ideal, you know?" she reasons. Honestly, perhaps they could stay an entire month... or longer, depending on how their finances were looking.

    "Oh, and while there, we absolutely have to visit the 'Kento Nanami Memorial Shrine' on Google Maps at least once... no ifs or buts about it!" Vivian then adds, allowing a firm nod to roll off her head.

[nihiliszm]

※ Chciałbym wiedzieć wszystko o Japonii. ※

　Zdzisław always has a bad habit of wandering somewhere after classes so it is a good idea to make sure any event he isn't gonna miss be on a day where he has no classes nor part-time job in the first place. That's where Wednesday comes in.

※ I always try to make a four day by leaving a day with nothing and that's Wednesday! Plans with me is first come first serve so, no random plans yet. Unless I forgot, I don't think I do so... ※　Zdzisław pondered a bit more. Nope, no plans.

　To really experience that Japanese university life, Zdzisław did enroll himself into a few circle groups, not that many since he is still here most of the time. It's how he got to familiarise with that senpai and some others as well. Some kouhais too but none of them are as close right now. They did take him to good food though! All expenses paid by that pushy senpai of course.

　Zdzisław nods at the suggestion of having the watch party next Wednesday, there's no work, no appointments, an empty day perfect for the occassion. ※ I heard summer there is a few degrees cooler than summer over here! Summer vacation is more than a week, so that would work. ※　If it's gonna be summer hot, might as well spend that on a trip, no? They are gonna be pretty sunburnt if they aren't careful.

※ Sure, I will leave that to you. I'll dig up the historic spots, the ones I have seen in textbooks before and we can mix them around. Planning for some other time. ※　Zdzisław seems pretty calm despite the prospect for an incoming trip.

※ What food should I get for the watch party by the way? Pizza? ※

※ Pozdrawiam - Zdzisław ※

[unladielike]

    The moment Zdzisław grimaces, Vivian's quick to quirk a brow. Oh, had she actually been right on the money all along? Truth be told, it was something she hadn't anticipated at all; in fact, she was only making lighthearted banter, to the point where upon hearing him speak, she'll soon lean forward with newfound interest.

    "Whoa, seriously? I didn't expect there to be any tea at all," Vivian finally confesses, allowing her eyes to widen. "But wow, to think someone would have the audacity to just... attempt at snatching away your phone like that." Sure enough, she then goes on to shake her head. "Do three dimensional men these days simply lack manners or something? Why, back in my day, you used to say 'please' and asked for permission when it came to stuff that wasn't yours; then again, maybe he was being way too over-friendly with you."

    ...Not that it really justified his actions, yet still, it could very well be Zdzisław's senpai was an obtuse person that sadly didn't have a firm grasp on boundaries. Regardless, she's glad he at least didn't get the satisfaction of reading a single word. Honestly, provided somebody succeeded at snatching away her phone while she was reading a smutty fic on archiveofourown, Vivian would have been mortified beyond belief.

    "Welp, I'm sorry that happened to you, Gigi. Having to deal with busybodies must suck," she sighs. "As for rewatching Jujutsu Kaisen together... I'd actually love that; in fact, I couldn't possibly endure suffering through Nanamin's tragic demise all by myself," Vivian went on to admit before affixing him with a curious stare.

    "What day of the week will you be available? In order to better prepare for this watch party, I'd like to buy some snacks and refreshments for us ahead of time... 'cause at the moment, my side of the pantry only has matcha flavoured goodies and coffee beans."

[nihiliszm]

※ Chciałbym wiedzieć wszystko o Japonii. ※

Zdzisław never really concerns himself with small talk but here they are since for once the Pole actually has tea to serve. That and he kinda have the need to vent over that audacity. An audacity that he's starting to learn is surprisingly quite common among straight Japanese university students.

※ Yeah, me neither to be honest... but too bad I am raised with people snatching phones for some cash in Europe, so... ※　As if contrasting the other, Zdzisław winces a little at the thought of petty theft in Europe, his eyes narrowing a bit before he looked away and taking care to avoid eye contact since that expression is not meant for someone he's talking to right now.　※ You'd think so too, it's pretty much common sense. But yeah, he's over-friendly... maybe even more so since we both speak Russian even if he's Japanese... but yeah, three dimensional men these days... ※

Perhaps Zdzisław casualness is partially to blame. A very open guy with almost no boundaries, quite approachable once you ignore the times he was intensely staring at his phone over something that caught his interest. It makes people just so curious on what's going on with him. Things fortunately got a little awkard after that, thank goodness. He had to lie and say he was reading about Laika and that worked out.

※ It was fine, I acted a full-out normie back then. ※　Come to think of it, has Vivian ever seen Zdzisław behaving like a normie in front of someone else? It'll be a very different guy than the Gigi she knows though. Eh, it doesn't matter, rewatching comes first.　※ We should go to Kuantan someday. For Nanami. ※

※ You have my schedule but I am pretty sure I am off on Wednesdays this semester. I don't remember my own availability much either hence why I gave you my schedule. And yeah, I will prepare snacks and drinks as well, cause I only have ingredients for barszcz, pierogi and kielbasa right now. ※

※ Pozdrawiam - Zdzisław ※

Zdzisław would receive the following LINE messages from Vivian.

[text]: ^ Me on my way over to your school right now! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Zdzisław was about to have a very light meal of a plate of bean sprouts laced with soy sauce when he heard his phone rang briefly. He made the mistake of reading it before his meal as that image definitely haunted him. If his phone can be replaced at no cost he might have thrown it out of window from a very complex mix of emotions from that image. Fear? Disgust? Surprise? Not even the Pole himself knows before the phone landed on the table with a thud followed by a Polish expletive. Somehow, gore and hardcore say gex is fine with him but body horror and just horror in general just does not really sit well with him. Maybe it was his not so distant past as a medium in Poland.

But that wasn't the only thing that was sent, right? Zdzisław did not even check who had sent this as the picture was the first thing that caught his attention. Ah, of course it's Vivian. She'd probably be the only one sending him stuff like this. All is forgiven as no harm nor malice in this one. Though... for her to come here would be herculean effort, no? His campus is literally at the top of some mountain. So high up that it is designated as evacuation route in case of a tsunami! Either the mountain climb or a crowded bus with three escalators up from the university's bus stop. Wait, actually, it's because of that she would be on her way to his uni as that...

Well, there goes his appetite for those bean sprouts... they are a day past expiry date so it would be better if he just... doesn't eat it, right? Nimble fingers begin to text back.

[メッセージ]　are you gonna climb up the mountain or should i head down for you?

[メッセージ] last class just finished actually. you ok with spending that precious ticket on me instead of a rental boyfriend cosplaying as Gojo?

[メッセージ] scratch that, you probably don't have money for a rental Gojo rn, take me with you, any sushi is better than what I have rn ^

    Ah, he did have a point, causing a natural grimace to plummet over her bespectacled features.

    "Oh right, her...god, was I so Gojo-pilled this whole entire time, my mind failed to visualize her in my latest hypothetical scenario?" Vivian questions, because as messed up as it was, she only managed to remember Nobara existed once Zdzisław had brought her up. With this in mind, she then proceeds to sweat drop. "I think all the x Reader PWP fics I read rotted my brain... in fact, I should really get around to re-watching Jujutsu Kaisen some time," Vivian concedes before flashing him a wry smile.

    "And it's fine! We can coexist without necessarily always sharing the same opinions, right?" she reasons. Of course, as she did prefer yuri or NL pairings, she may not exactly relate to Zdzisław's fudanshi tastes, but given the fact they were both otakus, she at least treated him much more nicely than she would a normie; after all, they were similar in the sense they were perverts, so if nothing else, she would never judge him for liking BL. Why, when it came down to it, the things she gooned to wasn't that much better, to the point where calling him a degenerate would be like the pot calling the kettle black.

    "Sure, I might not be a fujoshi, but I still respect your way of life. That reminds me, though... how was school? Did you get in trouble for reading yaoi during class?" came Vivian's eventual query, for she did recall Zdzisław mentioning he had experienced a 'long day'. To that end, she could only wonder what happened prior to him coming home.

※ Yeah, her. Hmm... I'm not much of a yumedanshi unlike you, but I guess that makes sense if you consider the existence of 同担拒否 (doutankyohi) which I also don't do but understand the concept more than the concept of yumejoshi... I'm more of a realist so I just... well yeah, you are more Gojo-pilled than I am, that's for sure. ※　One can see the gears in Zdzisław's grinding as he tries to makes sense of things. He is just a fudanshi after all, not as versatile of an otaku as her, that's for sure.　※ Yeah, let's rewatch it together if you wanna? ※

※ Yeah sure! Different opinions is always a chance to broaden your horizons. ※　Zdzisław does read some shojo manga from time to time, not everything he reads is BL but he really isn't all that keen with yuri. Not when the opposite gender doesn't really bring much of a reaction out of him in, unfortunately. The things the Pole has gooned to and where he does it, heck he just listens to it without gooning sometimes but thank goodness for earphones! Yet he let his guard down today and it was embarrassing.

※ Likewise, I am sure our interests don't overlap as much but you have good taste and your sense is spot on, so... I'm not complaining... ※　Zdzisław grimaces upon being asked of his long day... because it really has been a long day.

※ Well... Sorta, kinda... some senpai tried to snatch my phone after asking what I am reading and he clearly underestimated my grip strength on my phone while reading smut, not that he would understand most of it since it is in Polish, but he knows Russian cause we took the same lecture before so... too risky. But yeah, that was rude as fuck, even if he didn't mean anything bad and was just really curious. ※　Needless to say, the chum did not get a glance of what was on that phone at that moment.
