[OPEN] fuck timelines

[ after fucking off from the dungeon, leaving the daitengu all alone and sad (invite them too, guys :'( ), it's time to have fun. at whatever agreed upon time, the ou hirajiro gang is here to finally get some good r&r. rei has been extremely excited so she's early in front of the bathhouse, holding a bag of her belongings. she waves down anyone she sees. come faster!! let's get this show on the road! ]

Bathhouse time, hoooooo!!

[ for things in the bathhouse, there are your usual spa options: a sauna, jacuzzi, pedicures, manicures, that kind of stuff. have fun, everyone. ]

Huh?

[Holy crap that's a bunch of rapidfire questions.]

Um... I don't mind baths. Or people. I'm just not very good at talking to people...

I can teach you the ways of navigating the the choppy seas of interpersonal relationships~!

[His services are free.]

Is that so?

[He remembers their first meeting. But he'll be polite.]

Oh, absolutely~! This can be broken down into one of three main categories, as follows~

[He counts on his fingers to make sure there's only three.]

One: flirting~! Two: excuses~! Three: conviction~!

[...............He has regrets.]

Do those work well for you?

They really do! Let me demonstrate!

[He clears his throat, and drops to one knee in front of Sasuke. This would work better if Toki remembered his name, but he doesn't, so...]

Oh, Taro-san, what your strong and masculine features do to my delicate heart when I merely look upon them~! The depths of your eyes enchant and ensnare the most wild souls, brought to their knees by your piercing gaze~! Would that I, a lowly and unworthy creature, could see but a glimmer of that powerful reflection directed solely at me~!

[Welp this is an experience that is happening right now. He looks surprised and a little uncomfortable that Toki's taking it this far because oh god hopefully no one else is looking as all this goes down.]

...That's not my name.

[Please... this is Too Much Attention.]

It's not!? Oh my god! Okay, this leads right into my second lesson then! Excuses~!

[Toki stands and bows deeply to Sasuke.]

My most humblest of apologies, Tanaka-san! It is a most grievous error to have addressed you incorrectly after you had shown me such kindness in directing me to the town proper! I bring shame upon my family and your most excellent company for this incident, however~ I feel that I must state this was entirely through no fault of my own, and that Miharu-san, who works in reception was ultimately responsible for this mishap, as he has called you Taro-san on many occasions and is presently confusing even more of your employees and that cannot be tolerated!

[A lengthy pause. And then:]

It isn't Tanaka, either.

Oh. Well, okay. Conviction! It's important to have conviction in your beliefs even if everyone is telling you you're crazy! So! Here we go!

[Toki points accusingly at Sasuke and his tone is indignant at first, then shifting to pointedly determined as he demonstrates his third category.]

How dare you insinuate that I could possibly be wrong on this information! I will not stand for this blatant disregard of facts! I can state with the utmost certainty that your name is indeed Tanaka and there is absolutely no course for questioning this most assuredly correct proclamation!

[Continues to just deadpan over here.]

...If others are telling you you're crazy, shouldn't you stop and listen...?

Not if you have conviction~!

[He'll listen to them eventually, and look back on this conversation after canon update with embarrassment.]

...I don't think that changes things.

[Poor Toki. Ganba with that canon update.]

[With his demonstrations at an end, he has a question.]

What is your name?

Sasuke.

[Like the ninja.]

Sasuke. Sasuke. Okay! I got it!

[He waves and will leave Sasuke to his boring quiet space.]

Try to have fun, Sasuke~! You never know when this will be your last day~!

[That's... so ominous.]

Mm. See you.

[ Terry is trying so hard not to laugh, so he sinks into the water, but then he ends up swallowing the water from laughing too much and this is a disaster. ]
