1st (video)

[zippo]

Uh... hi.

[ there's a frown etched a little too deeply into his face. he'd tried rehearsing what to say earlier, but now that he's recording... he's forgotten everything he'd wanted to say. ]

My name is Tatsuya Suou. My... father... is Apollo? Is my mother still...? I mean, is my family really my family? [ he makes a face at that, but keeps going: ] This place doesn't even look like a camp.

Comments

By which I mean don't hit send for a while

[deathboss]

[Really, there's no two guys who have that deep and manly voice..and then he quickly confirms with his name.

Tatsuya Suou...]

[deathboss]

[Bootup rivalry.exe

...well Eikichi did get here first even if Jun did before him. He's not even listening to the other sadder things Tatsuya said as he's already heading to Apollo's cabin. Logically, that's where he should be, right?]

Well I guess 4 tags isn't really a flood alas

[deathboss]

[And he does spot his target! Making his way over, Eikichi can't help but grin wider and wider, making sure to sneak behind the other (or at least attempting to) before nonchalantly placing a hand over Tatsuya's elbow.]

You're late.

[I got here first!]

[zippo]

[ tatsuya reflexively jerks his arm away - and launches himself a couple of steps forward in an awkward little hop-turn - before realizing that... oh, it's just eikichi. he's not sure if he's surprised or relieved or... both, maybe. ]

... I'm on time.

[deathboss]

[at least he didn't give you the mother-of-all bearhugs. eikichi was certainly happy to see his friendrival, and like usual, it was overly visible in his face. but it didn't take long for him to return to his usual mannerisms around him either.]

Heheh...looks like I've won this round.

[just...let him have his small victory.]

Did you see anyone else but me yet?

[zippo]

Yeah... you're behind, Eikichi. I've already seen Jun.

[ but that goes without saying. jun would have broken down walls to see tatsuya, if necessary. ]

Ah, and the shirt looks good on you.

[ he deadpans the delivery, but it's a joke. an attempt at one, anyway. ]

[deathboss]

... [damnit! although not too surprising. he has a feeling that jun would be able to find him no matter what the circumstances...]

Tch! That doesn't count! He's doesn't count, this is between you and me!

[what do you mean he's grasping for the straws, he's totally just pushing the rivalry and--speaking of which WOW, DID YOU SERIOUSLY, Eikichi looks down at this shirt as if he's noticing for the first time again and winces.]

It's terrible! I only like orange in small doses, not an entire shirt! It clashes with my beautiful hair...I'm sweating so much in it too...

[HE IS SUPER HAPPY TO SEE YOU BRO.]

[zippo]

[ tatsuya genuinely likes the orange! but tatsuya has less than zero taste in fashion and his opinion isn't exactly valid. ]

What if you changed your hair to match?

[ he is super happy to see eikichi, too. ]

But you'd look weird with orange hair...
