Yosuke's Room - for Naoto Shirogane

[There's a message left for Naoto under her door, scrawled in a too-rushed-to-be-neat handwriting she might actually recognized from agonizing study sessions in the Junes food court. It reads:

Hey, we need to talk. Meet me in my room - nothing weird, I just need to talk to you about some stuff. See you later.

- Yosuke]

[As for the messenger himself, he's sitting on the edge of his bed, legs swinging nervously - not for fear of subject matter, but he always has a hard time talking to Naoto (without devolving into teasing her about something within five minutes). Still, his resolve is steeled. After all, he worked up the guts to deliver the message, right! He can do this!]

[Probably!]


Media Floor - Open - Tags from Yosuke and Naoto

[After their talk, the two of them can be found in his usual place. What's unusual about the situation? He's got Naoto playing a fighting game with him, and it doesn't seem like he's going easy on her. It's not like he can, she's Naoto Shirogane! Five minutes with a controller and he's sure she'll be an expert]

Alright, my super gauge is full! No way you're getting out of this one!

[His voice is full of teasing - better enjoy it while it lasts, Yosuke. Approach the two?]


Cafeteria/Kitchen - Open - Tags from Yosuke OR Naoto

[All good things must come to an end eventually, and the two have parted ways. However, they're both human! Sooner or later, you can catch Yosuke or Naoto in the kitchen making themselves something to eat. Yes, MAKING something to eat! Whichever one you catch, dare you interrupt the approaching disaster waiting to happen?]

[It might be a good idea. For the good of humanity. Just saying]

[Oh my god video games! Ryoji's standing behind the two, watching excitedly. And ignoring the fact that Naoto looks way too much like someone else he knows.]

Hurry! You've got him, you've got him!

[princeofjunes]

Oh come on, don't just automatically pull for Naoto!

Dammit...

[AND NOW HE MUST FIGHT EVEN HARDER! BUILD HIS SUPER GAUGE! HE MUST CRUSH THE PUNY OPPOSITION!]

[detecting]

Your support is appreciated.

[PUNY? OH YOSUKE YOU WISH. You have made a powerful enemy this day. An enemy who is not only quick to pick up on how to play the game, but an enemy who has already started to figure out your play style.

And Ryoji's encouragement is certainly nice.

Unleashing that super in 3... 2... 1. Good luck dodging that.]

[notsogrimreaper]

But she has to win! She's a beautiful, strong young lady, who can fend for herself~

[Ryoji's flirting is cut off soon after, because ooh, Naoto's technique is impressive. And here comes the super!]

[princeofjunes]

She doesn't have to- wait, crap!

[DODGE! DODGE! DODGE DAMN YOU, YOU STUPID LITTLE SPRITE! DODGE FOR ALL YOUR LIFE IS WORTH! DOOOOOOOOOOOODGE!]

[But of course he can't get out of the way in time, and one incredibly flashy demise later, Naoto is declared the winner by way of announcer and shiny graphics. With a sigh, all Yosuke can do is lower his controller]

Alright, this time I was legitimately distracted! You guys can't count that one!

[detecting]

[Ryoji. Royji stop. If you know what's good for you you will stop right now. You see, Naoto Shirogane does not know how to take compliments. She also has no idea how to react to someone flirting with her. And she actually has a boyfriend who will kind of kick your face in. And then there was the whole issue of the subject itself. Because he kind of hit a nerve there. Kind of.]

If I may ask, how does my gender, my apparent "beauty", or my ability to defend myself have any effect on the outcome of a simulated fight?

[notsogrimreaper]

[Woah. Okay, okay, calm down, Naoto. Ryoji was honestly just trying to help! Flirting is really the only way he knows how to make others (and himself) happy, but if Naoto is ticked off, he'll keep quiet... though he looks a bit liked a kicked puppy, though.]

I-I just wanted to cheer you on. And you seemed really good at the game, and I wanted to compliment you!

[Look at this face how could you ever be mad at him?]

[princeofjunes]

[Naoto, he gets where you're coming from, but come on! Not every idiot is out to personally attack you - he should know, he's an idiot! He sighs and looks over at his counterpart]

Come on Naoto, does that look like the face of a guy who was trying to offend you?

[detecting]

[... and then she realizes she took that far too personally. That certainly does not look like the face of a guy trying to offend her and now she feels incredibly foolish. Kind of feels like a jerk, too. MAYBE THIS IS HOW YOSUKE FEELS ALL THE TIME I MEAN

She looks up, apologetic.]

M-my apologies. I, ah... I'm not accustomed to receiving sincere compliments.

[notsogrimreaper]

I-It's okay, I understand. Some people find me annoying, so I kinda get that a lot...

[Nope, the idiot still feels like the foolish one here. He's looking down, playing with the ends of his scarf, and just feeling really really embarrassed.]

[princeofjunes]

[He looks between the two of them and sighs - how did he become the mature one here? Still, he'd best try to sort this out or they'll be here forever]

No, seriously. Naoto doesn't know how to take compliments about her looks. It gets her all blushing and confused. If you really want to get in good with her, compliment her brain! You can't go wrong.
