[HRRRRRRRRGHHHHH...]

Well yeah, because it's right on your throat, dumbass.

[FOLDING HIS ARMS AND HUFFING GRUMPILY]

Mine's not popping out. It's fused right on there. They told me so!

[myriades]

It's kinda a big target, huh?

[He debates between a lady bug or some leftovers- deciding on the leftovers. He sticks the ball of bread on the hook and casts]

[foolreversed]

Yours is too.

[are you trying to give him more hang ups than he already has about this damn thing's placement or what, goddamnit Yu]

[myriades]

They're kinda cool though. Have you managed to summon a weapon yet?

[He can't help teasing a little- almost in the way he would with Yosuke. It's easy to forget what he knows now, and Yu bites his lip. He has to stop that. He can't just pretend things haven't changed completely]

[foolreversed]

[Frowning again, but more disappointed than annoyed.]

What do you think I've been trying to do out here?

[So... no.]

[myriades]

Hm. So you plan on getting involved?

[And like that Yu's tone is serious.]

[foolreversed]

Well, it's not like I really have a choice, right?

And I'll take it over dealing with someone like Sho-kun again. [god what a handful that was]

[myriades]

Don't you? I mean, they can't force us to fight.

[His eyes gleam, and he watches Adachi carefully. As if expecting something]

[foolreversed]

[he shrugs]

And then what? Just sit around doing nothing?

I mean, don't get me wrong I'd rather be back in jail but I'm here anyway so...

[myriades]

The universe doesn't seem to want to let you do your time, does it? Dojima-san will be mad.

[foolreversed]

[DEEP SIGH gosh you had to mention the D word]

Well, what he doesn't know can't hurt him, haha...

Looks like it doesn't seem to want to leave you alone either, though.

[myriades]

[He sighs, reeling in a little]

Seems not. I'm supposed to be hitting the cram books right now.

[foolreversed]

[oh god. cramming. he sure knows that well.]

Oh boy, that time already huh? Wow, that sort of stuff takes me back.

[to easier, simpler times when that was all he needed to feel pleased with himself]

I think in your case then this is much better though.

[myriades]

[ he makes a small non-commital noise]

I don't mind studying... I don't have much to do back in the city.

[foolreversed]

You had more to do back in that town, huh? Man, ain't that ironic.

[stretching his arms, before resting back on them and looking out at the ocean]

This place is nice though.

[Inaba could have been too if you had just given it a chance, Adachi]

[myriades]

Inaba is nice too.

[Lawl]

Though it IS warmer here.

[foolreversed]

Inaba doesn't have a beach.

[IGNORING ANY POSSIBILITY THAT INABA IS NICE AND HE WAS WRONG TO HATE IT SO MUCH!!]

Warmer and nicer.

[myriades]

[Yu chuckles]

Whatever you say, Adachi-san.

[He says nothing else for awhile, as Yu tended to do. Just watching his bobber... before jerking the rod, reeling in in a rush- and hauling a small fish out of the water.]

I think all the people around have scared off all the fish.

[foolreversed]

[back to tapping on his gem. come onnnnnnn, he wants a weapon already B<]

You sure it's the people that scared them off and not all the stuff that happens around here?

[myriades]

Same difference.

[He unhooks the fish, gives it a look over... and tosses it back. After a moment he puts the rod away with a sigh]

It's something to look into later.

[Quest 128: Save the Fish!

He'll come back to that later. For now he turns, tilting his head as Adachi taps his gem.]

It's really bothering you?

[foolreversed]

No. [starts knocking on it with his knuckles, frowning] ...Okay, maybe.

[myriades]

It's not that hard. You're trying too hard.

[foolreversed]

Oh yeah? Then how do you do it, Mr. Perfect?

[myriades]

Hmm, like this?

[He stands, touches his throat gem- which glows with very dull foggy grey light. He tilts his head back and shit is fucking Utena all over here. Or Sailor Moon or something as he pulls the pale energy out- thank god it stays energy until it's pretty much out though cuz such a long thick weapon would look pretty gross otherwise coming from such a spot.

...though in Adachi's favor, once he has it OUT and it becomes solid he fumbles, almost dropping it like fucking Hanamura on his worst day. Look he's not used to such oddly balanced heavy weapons shut up?]

1/2

[foolreversed]

[Adachi watches initially with wide eyes, feeling both impressed but also quite jealous that Yu was having no difficulty summoning his weapon at all.]
