Ko: (Btw, re: Yuuta in the basement, Wakato may want to drag him somewhere depending on where their conversation gets started, if he's worried about cameras being around.)
Rachel: not going to enslave himself to niou again? XD;
Ko: *snickers* He'd really prefer not to, since Keigo mentioned Kirihara's homicidal tendencies over dinner.
Rachel: i saw lol
Rachel: i can just imagine how dumb he felt
Ko: (Still beats cleaning Yukimura's bedpan or something, but...)
Rachel: aww but kirihara is adorable
Rachel: and besides he might think to at least be a little smarter in terms of conditions lol
Ko: I hope so. XD
Rachel: you know
Rachel: if he drags yuuta to the basement lol
Rachel: this is where the wuuta doujinshi come from XD;
Rachel: those two lonely wakato/yuuta fangirls are finally given some actual slash lol
Rachel: after months have talking about the sweet subtlety of their relationship
Rachel: finally they are given their raison d'etre lol
Ko: They were thrown a bone. lol
Ko: But I don't think Wakato would actually drag him down to the basement of the apartment building, though. We should think of somewhere where they can chat apart from the apartment.
Ko: (The cameras would presumably still follow them, but they might be able to ditch somehow.)
Rachel: well i will be honest
Rachel: yuuta is not good when he is upset at being hmmm discreet
Rachel: and he is not overly fond of wakato and prob will see wakato as having hurt two people he likes
Rachel: and the only time yuuta successfully lost the cameraman was his display of being high maintenance at denny's
Ko: True. XD
Ko: But this time he might have a panicking Wakato dragging him by the hand.
Rachel: and see those fangirls get their wish
Ko: It would be really bad if Wakato drug him into a love hotel.
Rachel: omg yes the one niou took him too
Rachel: because it was camera free and not so expensive?
Ko: Yeah, when they were negotiating the deal to get the footage hid.
Rachel: i could see yuuta going to confront him at mandarake
Rachel: and wakato dragging him off from there lol
Ko: That sounds like a good idea. And highly amusing if Wakato drags him through Shibuya while they're both still in costume to a love hotel.
Ko: (And it's Wakato, so the fangirls could be like, "OMG he's taking him for COSPLAY SEX, thats how you know it's TRU LOVE")
Rachel: yes though it's too bad they're not both in their sakura costumes cause that would be so wrong
Ko: Was a theme decided for the following week?
Rachel: uhhhhh that i don't remember
Ko: If not, we could just pick one for our own amusement.
Rachel: ccs week ends when yuuyuu come back
Rachel: or well the 2 weeks of ccs end when yuuyuu come back
Ko: Yeah. Hmm...what would be amusing and wrong as the show draws to its conclusion?
Rachel: i know we had 2 weeks of fan's favorite
Rachel: perhaps yuuta has switched with yagyuu, so that he is on shift with wakato
Rachel: as otherwise he would not be in costume
Rachel: I got it!
Rachel: this could be 2 weeks where they need to dress like one of the other housemates/frequently appearing people on rwt
Rachel: and wakato could have been assigned keigo XD;
Ko: XD Oh god. He would hate that.
Rachel: that's why i thought of it
Ko: (Although he probably feels safer dressed as Keigo than if they had him dress as Ryoma. XD)
Rachel: and ok both rounds of sex had to have taken place between 2/17 and 2/22
Rachel: yuuyuu come back 2/22 and 2/23 starts the new week of costumes
Rachel: i know 2/29 yuuyuu have to attend syuusuke's birthday which yuuta is prob going to reference while talking to keigo
Rachel: so it would be sometime in early march when yuuta swaps
Rachel: yuuta can be jiroh
Rachel: cause there we go, keigo has admitted he loved jiroh XD;
Ko: lol Although that part wouldn't have aired, since they were in the car when that conversation happened.
Rachel: no he's said it other places i think too
Rachel: or made it clear he feels very affectionately
Rachel: there was some chat with yuuta where keigo talked about people he loved
Rachel: and there was the odaiba date
Ko: (Amusingly, Wakato is almost 10 cm taller than Kirihara.)
Rachel: how does this work for wrongness and amusement value:
Rachel: Wakato==Keigo
Rachel: Yuuta==Jiroh
Rachel: Keigo==Akutsu XD;
Rachel: Kamio==Ryoma
Rachel: Ryoma==Ann
Rachel: Yagyuu==Fuji XD;
Rachel: nice and wrong and that way everyone is a little uncomfortable for various reasons
Ko: XD Yeah!
Rachel: well except keigo
Rachel: cause having to dress like jiroh, yuuta would have to be in a cutsie skirt and such lol
Ko: lol That sounds good.
Ko: (And everyone gets to breathe a sigh of relief that they weren't asked to dress up as Touji.)
Rachel: maybe they have the early shift on march 1st
Rachel: maybe they were assigned, there was maybe a hat with names in it and everyone drew
Rachel: and wakato got keigo
Rachel: <3
Ko: (It would be kind of amusing if Yagyuu were Kamio, actually, given the relative difference in intelligence. ^^)
Rachel: but yeah, so maybe on monday feb 23 when they all came into work there was a hat and they each pulled out a name and found out their assignment then
Rachel: i think yuuta and wakato need to have the early shift on 3/1 as if it is the late shift yagyuu might notice or have come to meet yuuta
Rachel: also, love hotels are cheaper during the day
Ko: We'll have to think of an amusingly horrible theme for their room.
Rachel: so keigo is dragging off jiroh to love hotel lol
Rachel: and really yuuta is like 7-8 cms shorter than wakato so it is easier to imagine and kamio misses it all cause he was trying to fix his hair
Rachel: from the baseball cap
Rachel: and yagyuu and keigo are just coming to work
Ko: Sounds good.
Ko: Btw, Yuuta mentions something Wakato said the night before that irritated him. Did you have anything in particular in mind, or just Wakato being kind of bitchy in general?
Rachel: well now that i read your chat he can be bitchy about yuuta making dessert
Rachel: since he got back 2/22 from his honeymoon of sorts
Rachel: and got his love declaration
Rachel: i can see him every night since the 23 making a a strawberry shortcake for dessert lol
Rachel: and while not chocolate, i am sure the whipped cream and keigo is enough for wakato to be pissy
Rachel: maybe it's the night of the 25th or 26th
Rachel: so this is the 3rd or 4th night he's made shortcake
Ko: OK. And just to make things easy, I'll say Kamio is over hanging out with Shinji this evening.
Rachel: or he can be in the room listening to loud music on his headphones
Rachel: keigo is in his room sulking
Ko: (And Wakato is getting caught up on his shoujo anthologies -- he would have read them Saturday or Sunday, but all that damn sex got in the way!)
Rachel: yagyuu is coming back late from rikkai
Rachel: because one would think as the show closes he occasionally has to go back to yokohama
Yuuta: *humming to himself, glad that he managed to get out of work a littler faster, turns on the mixer after adding another tablespoon of sugar to the whipped cream, beating until there are soft peaks.*
Yuuta: *turns off the power and furrows his brow for a second before sneakily putting a finger against the side and swiping off some of the cream to test for doneness*
Wakato: *in the triple, is lying on his stomach in bed paging through this month's Cookie, savoring every juicy morsel of shoujo melodrama; even though he has a whole stack of anthologies next to him that he has to get read before he can even START the new weeklies, it's just too nice a job to rush*
Yuuta: *sucks on his finger for several seconds before wiping his hands on his new very cute apron before grabbing a pot holder and taking out the fresh poundcake, the aroma wafting from the kitchen to the rest of the apartment. Places the cake on the counter to cool before opening the refrigerator to retrieve the strawberries*
Wakato: *pauses up in the middle of Nana when he catches a whiff of something sweet; puzzled, he tugs at his shirt to see if he's just smelling his own sugary-smelling "body mist," but no, that's not it -- this is less gummi bears, more baked goods-y*
Yuuta: *sets a large colander in the sink before placing the fresh strawberries inside of it and carefully rinsing each off, smiling softly to himself pats each one dry before getting out his cutting board to carefully slice them, every so often sneaking one for himself, glad no one else can see*
Wakato: *finally notices the sounds of someone doing something in the kitchen -- running water, cabinet doors opening and closing, the sound of a knife thunking down on the cutting board -- and realizes it must be Yuuta cooking something...more specifically baking...more specifically something very sweet, judging by the smell...*
Wakato: *has a sudden mental image of Yuuta putting a piece of cake on the table in front of Keigo -- chocolate cake like they had at Beige, even though what he's smelling isn't chocolate -- and Keigo having those same borderline pornographic reactions to it, like someone's blowing him under the table while he eats*
Wakato: *twitches*
Yuuta: *pleased with his baking success, puts all his berry pieces in a bowl and gets a cooled poundcake out from the oven, planning to use this latest one as his shortcake for dessert the next night*
Yuuta: *loosens the cake from his tin and places it on plate as he picks up a serrated knife and carefully shaves the cake to make it flat, biting his lip picks up a part of the uneven section he removed and dips it in the whipped cream*
Rachel: (he has such a sweet tooth lol and he hasn't made dinner yet >>; )
Wakato: *taps his finger against his anthology, debating...finally decides the the probability of Keigo wrapping his lips around whatever Yuuta is making (and Wakato subsequently losing all control and wrapping his lips around certain parts of Keigo) is too high to just let it go*
Wakato: *glances over at Kamio, who has his headphones on and is jamming along oblivious to the rest of the world, then pushes himself up off the bed and heads for the kitchen*
Yuuta: *finishes off the excess cake and blushes a bit knowing that if Yagyuu knew he was eating bits of cake and berries for dinner his boyfriend would not be pleased, but rather hoping the subject does not get back when Yagyuu gets back from Yokohama*
Yuuta: *slices the cake in half and spreads some still warm strawberry preserves he heated earlier on it before adding a layer of sliced strawberries, making sure to dip one into the cream and eating it while he works*
Wakato: *leans in the doorway propped up against the frame, arms crossed, and watches Yuuta at work for a moment, then coughs to get his attention*
Yuuta: *jumps slightly getting some whipped cream on his himself, which he dabs off with the apron blushing darker* Uhhh Wakato-san. *smiles* Are you here to help in the kitchen?
Wakato: Hadn't planned on it, no. So when's the big Hyoutei bake sale?
Yuuta: *blushes more biting on his lip, spreads some more whipped cream on the cake* It's for the apartment, it's Hiroshi-san's favorite and umm mine. *brows furrowing* I don't think Hyoutei is having a bake sale or Keigo would have told me.
Wakato: *very slight twitch -- even though Keigo said he'd be discreet, Wakato is feeling a little paranoid about the entire situation, so any time someone mentions Mr. Wonderful by name, Wakato wonders if they actually know everything and are playing with him...*
Wakato: *on the other hand, reminds himself that this is Yuuta, and Yuuta doesn't have an evil bone in his body...his older siblings sucked it all up, so there was none left for him*
Yuuta: *blinks at Wakato for a few minutes and when the other boy doesn't say anything adds the top layer to the cake and begins to coat it in the warm preserves* I promised Hiroshi-san a shortcake every night, to thank him for his help getting me my own apartment, that and.. and.. *blushes*
Wakato: Hmm... Well, I knew you were busy in here the last few days or so...
Wakato: Not that it's not terribly sweet of you to do it for him, Yuuta-kun, but do you think Yagyuu would mind if you took a few days off? *thinks for a second* ...cause some of us do have rooms right off the kitchen *thumbs over his shoulder toward the triple* and the smell gets to be a little...
Yuuta: *folds his arms across his chest stopping his work, brows knitting together* Hiroshi-san likes strawberry shortcake, and I like making it for him. *hint of irritation in his tone*
Yuuta: And I think one ought to show someone appreciation when they do something for you. *voice becoming slightly louder, already anxious for the week end and his brother's birthday and really less than pleased to have someone interrupt his stress release*
Wakato: *frowns -- Yuuta usually isn't this confrontational unless Wakato is casually reminding him about the Hiroshis' previous student/teacher relationship*
Wakato: And I'm sure he DOES appreciate it, but I think anyone would get a little tired of strawberry shortcake eight days in a row, wouldn't they? *shrugs a little* Why not take him out some night instead? *thinks to self - that way, there's less danger of Atobe somehow getting cake and eating it in front of me*
Yuuta: *expression becoming tighter and eyes narrowing slightly* It's been 4 days, Wakato-san, not 8. And besides, Hiroshi-san said he likes my cake the best.
Yuuta: *trying to count to 10 and remember to control his temper, really wishing Yagyuu was here about now as he always manages to keep him more relaxed, takes several deep breaths and shuts his eyes* I'm not going to make brownies instead.
Wakato: *turns in the doorway so that his back is against the frame, and he isn't looking directly at Yuuta; gives a little toss of his head and harumphs* Make anything but! I don't care.
Wakato: *looks at Yuuta out of the corner of his eye* Besides, you'd just put nuts in them anyway, wouldn't you?
Wakato: *tries to look casual as he waits for Yuuta's reaction, which might give some hint as to whether Yuuta was implying something there...*
Yuuta: *squeezing his hands into fists not sure why Wakato is being so rude, particularly when the last time he made brownies he tried so hard to do half and half.* Hiroshi-san.Prefers.Nuts.
Yuuta: *feeling his temper rising and without thinking, still annoyed at Wakato for some of the comments he's made regarding Yagyuu* You ought to be more thankful to Hiroshi-san! He spent all those hours helping you with your exams. *face getting pink with rage and embarrassment* You ought to.. ought to.. buy him a nice book! As a thank you!
Yuuta: But you ought not to need me to tell you that!
Wakato: *later on, will remember Yuuta saying Yagyuu likes nuts, and take some solace in that as a sign that Yuuta DOESN'T know about Wakato's indiscretions with Keigo, and that he wasn't torturing him for the hell of it -- always good to know, since so many people seem to view Wakato torture as a fun hobby*
Wakato: *for now, though, jumps, surprised at Yuuta's sudden, seemingly inexplicable anger; has a momentary urge to ask Yuuta if he's PMSing before he remembers oh yeah, Yuuta is a boy, not one of his fangirls in a bad mood*
Wakato: *getting irritated himself* Jeez! Why are you getting on my case all of a sudden?
Yuuta: *a hint of shrillness entering his voice* WHAT?!?! You're the one who came in here, Wakato-san to complain about my baking! *hand clenching and unclenching* You certainly never complained when you wanted my help making chocolates for Valentine's Day or.. or..
Yuuta: *face completely flushed with anger closing his eyes and taking several deep breaths* I.bake.nearly,every.night. *biting out each word*
Yuuta: Could you please just get out of my kitchen! *covering his eyes with his hand*
Wakato: *objectively knows he's being kind of unreasonable with his request, but it's not like he can explain to Yuuta how all the baking is (indirectly) giving him a hard-on -- and anyway, where's all the rage coming from? He doesn't remember doing anything to Yuuta, and It's not anything he particularly needs at the moment himself...*
Wakato: *hands on his hips* Well, excuse me! I thought I said "thank you" at the time, but I guess that wasn't enough. Sorry I came in and asked you to have a little consideration for the people who live in the room two feet away from YOUR kitchen. Is it OK if I keep my leftovers in YOUR fridge, or should I see if the producers will let me keep a mini-fridge in the triple?
Ko: (Damn, it's turning into an uke fight. XD )
Rachel: (the problem is yuuta is getting in the wanting to throw something mode, and throwing whipped cream==bad lol )
Ko: (They need a jell-o pit for this.)
Yuuta: *too incensed and stressed about the upcoming birthday he still doesn't have a gift for taking away any of his usual civility* I'm the only one who cleans the kitchen! Not that you or Akira-kun understand the value as such, as I can often SMELL YOUR ROOM from the living room!
Yuuta: But you don't see *ME* coming into your room to ask you do laundry! And that particular odor is far less attractive! *crossing his arms* If you like we can ask a neutral party like Keigo to vote which he prefers!
Wakato: *was on the verge of trying to slow it down and ask did he do something other than the kitchen thing that's got Yuuta ticked off so bad, like sleepwalk into the Yuuyuu love suite and sleephump Yagyuu in the middle of the night, or is there something else that's got him this riled...but then Yuuta brought up Her Royal Highness again*
Wakato: Oh, yeah -- REAL neutral party there. Why don't we have one of MY exes come for the judging, too? You know, since you're so interested in it being fair.
Wakato: *shrugs* But then again, you did do him a pretty bad piece of business, right? So maybe he wouldn't be that biased after all...
Yuuta: *eyes flashing an for a moment coming really closing to slapping Wakato, but instead just whips off his apron and throw it at him hard, the pang of guilt from Wakato's words making him feel sick* Fine. Don't expect any help from me ever again on anything!
Yuuta: *stalks out of the kitchen via the dinning room exit not wanting to be near Wakato, leaving the whipped cream, berries and half finished shortcake still out*
Wakato: *stands there for a moment dumbly holding the apron and staring out the door, blinking, then recovers*
Wakato: *shouts* FINE! *after a moment, adds sort of half-heartedly and with less volume* Asshole.
Wakato: *mumbling* Just wanted one little thing...I didn't say he wasn't allowed to bake ever again...
Wakato: *looks at the apron, then throws it on the floor hard and stalks back to the triple, where he starts reading angrily*
Ko: (And fade to black?)
Rachel: yuuta is going to be so pissed at him lol
Rachel: prob he spends the next few days avoiding wakato and the kitchen lol
Rachel: he gets yagyuu to take him out
Rachel: i suspect if yuuta is unhappy enough yagyuu might even try to say something
Ko: I feel bad for both of them because they've both got things going on that are pissing them off and frustrating them that have nothing whatsoever to do with the baking and the kitchen.
Rachel: but yuuta doesn't like wakato enough to mention his brother
Ko: *nods* Has he been able to vent to anyone about his situation?
Rachel: though if wakato were less upset he might be able to guess
Rachel: since niou has the birthday gift
Ko: Yeah -- at the moment, Niou could be standing in the kitchen dancing around with the gift over his head and a giant tag reading "Fuji the Elder" on it, and I don't think Wakato would notice. XD
Rachel: i think yuuta has shared a little with yagyuu being stressed
Rachel: but he also doesn't want to burden him and the situation is difficult
Rachel: because there is stress on yagyuu as well
Ko: Wakato might have started tidying up the triple huffily out of spite. XD)
Ko: (It might not have made a big difference, but he might have, you know, gotten rid of the bowls sitting on the shelf with the inch of broth left in them (and the fuzzy yellow slime growing OVER the broth...)
Rachel: cause i was thinking that room so has to reek!
Ko: (Wakato: *standing at the window* ...it would be bad to just dump this...but it might clog the drain...)
Rachel: i imagine yagyuu comes home
Rachel: and finds the remains of the baking in the kitchen
Rachel: unfinished
Rachel: he knows something is wrong lol
Rachel: and the apron tosses on the floor
Ko: Yagyuu: *stares, then bends down on one knee and picks up the apron* Yagyuu: *takes his glasses off* My god...Yuuta's been kidnapped by terrorists.
Ko: (...shit, now I've got Rikkai as the A-Team stuck in my head.)
Ko: Sanada pities the fool who kidnaps the muffin boy.
Rachel: i think kirihara would be murdoch
Rachel: cause come on who else are they going to be breaking out of the insane asylum >>;
Rachel: he's locked up for everyone's good
Rachel: yagyuu is the person who calls the a-team for help lol
Ko: Is Niou Hannibal, the master of disguise? ^^
Rachel: and yukimura is face lol
Ko: XD That works.
Rachel: it's so wrong
Ko: I just love the thought of Sanada in all those chains.
