This place is kind of too big to be too nostalgic...

[ there's a pause after he says that though. ]

... can't believe we actually made it here though.

[usogi]

[maybe if they just went to their bedroom then it'd be closer to how much space they had before but -

that manages to get senri's expression to soften a little bit even as he lets his chin rest on taka's shoulder, turning fond. it's a little ridiculous, isn't it?

they met when they were fifteen. and here they are now - five years later, still together despite every circumstance pulling them apart.]

.... it's kind of uncanny, right?

[bakaomi]

... it is.

[ just a couple of months ago, they still hated each other over how bad their breakup went. and now here they are, moving into an apartment together.

life's funny that way. ]

People are going to think that you like me or something.

[usogi]

Good!

[HE ANSWERED TOO QUICKLY - but he looks obviously pleased at the idea, smiling brightly as he nuzzles against taka's cheek affectionately. gay.]

Because I do!

More than I dislike you, even.

[shocking.]

[bakaomi]

What?

[ he pretends to look shocked. ]

Wow. Can't believe I got that honor.

[usogi]

I'd say me neither but it kind of felt like an inevitability.

[like he was always going to like taka more than he dislikes him]

Even if I didn't want to admit it before...

[bakaomi]

Oi, you don't have to say it like that.

[ it's embarrassing??

at the same time, it makes taka want to smack senri on the head, but still. ]

[usogi]

Don't have to say it like what?

[he knows

but he still wants to ask, because it's nice when taka gets embarrassed. sometimes bullying your boyfriend is the best way to pass time.

there are still boxes to open]

[bakaomi]

Like nothing! I didn't say anything.

[ IF YOU'RE EMBARRASSED THEN JUST

PRETEND NOTHING JUST HAPPENED ]

[usogi]

[STOP he's just laughing]

Liar! And a bad liar at that! Don't try to steal my bit!

[be more ashamed]

[bakaomi]

[ he reaches over to just

flick senri on the forehead ]

[usogi]

[sdflkjsdf

his hand comes up to rub at his forehead where he was flicked]

Hey!

We need to come out with house rules! House Rule Number One: No Bullying!

[bakaomi]

... that's like, more than half of our interactions.

[ this rule won't work already wow ]

[usogi]

We can tweak-

Did you just say more than half?

[NOT EVEN JUST HALF?]

[bakaomi]

[ he just nods ]

Yeah. The math seems right.

[usogi]

Be more ashamed about it!

[there is no shame in this relationship. anywhere.]

Isn't that a sign you should be nicer to me?

[bakaomi]

I'm already nicer to you than I am to other people.

[ so that's??? good enough??? ]

[usogi]

[ . . . . senri is petty, so unfortunately he very much likes hearing that. he already eases up a little bit even as he leans his head on taka's shoulder]

Remind me how nice that is again.

[bakaomi]

Hm... I can show you.

[ please finish unpacking

he turns his head slightly so he can press a kiss to the top of senri's head ]

[usogi]

[unpacking? no.

because senri is just going to preen at that, smiling happily as he melts under the affection so easily]

Mm! Okay, I'm waiting.

[bakaomi]

Well--

[ and at that moment, there is a knock at the door

hm. taka looks at senri. ]

[usogi]

[ . . . . his eyebrow twitches]

... really....

[go answer the damn door]

[bakaomi]

[ he sighs

and wanders to the door. it seems like a package they forwarded to the new room arrived a little too early and the neighbor got it.

the neighbor is very chatty. ]

[usogi]

[ . . . . UGGHHHHH.

senri is going to pout and. go to open up the last few boxes then. fine.

it's probably his giant collection of playbills. he will perhaps find the second copy of the one that taka went to and end up deeply confused on why there's two.]

[bakaomi]

[ that has been taka's best kept secret for years. terrible.

but the neighbor is now saying they can come over for drinks at any time. in a normal circumstance, he and senri would probably get along great, but his timing is just bad.

eventually taka will return with the box. ]

Geez...
