[That will give him approximately enough time to get in there, set his backpack down, and get the coffee going. The door will be open for him, of course.]
[ And in almost exactly six minutes, Yuji is showing up, pushing open the door and shutting it behind him. He looks a little tired, his eyes a bit red, and he wanders over to slide up behind Raidou and nuzzle into him from behind, sinking his weight against him. Whoof. ]</small.
Johei...
[That has to be the very last thing on the list Raidou expected to hear. There's a beat, and he turns around to face him, head tilted in curiosity and... a feeling he can't quite place. Not quite jealousy, but maybe? Something else too new for him to pin down.
Yuji looks upset about it, which makes it even more of a puzzle. He's unsure of what to say. Asking who it was feels like an invasion of privacy.]
[ Yuji shifts a little, awkwardly. He's not sure what kind of reaction he was expecting from Raidou, but it wasn't... This? He blinks, leaning back a little before he breathes out. ]
Well, it was Megumi, so it sort of... Made my head hurt? And then I guess I cried.
[And there's a name he wasn't expecting to hear. He blinks. His best friend did? How awkward that must have been...
Raidou does give him a fond look and take his face again gently when he mentions he cried. Of course he did. Yuji seemed so full of feelings that seemed like they didn't know how to get out any other way sometimes.]
That must have been... strange. I'm sure you weren't expecting it.
[ How could he not cry, when Megumi means as much to him as he does? The idea of losing him because of the confession had flickered across his mind, and it had been enough to panic him - that, plus the reminder of home... There was no way Yuji was going to be able to hold it together.
As Gojo-sensei says: he's a crybaby, sometimes. ]
I had no idea! I couldn't tell at all! [ Yuji is oblivious, as ever. ] I really thought he meant 'as friends' at first...
[ Yuji's not sure what he needs him to say, it just didn't feel right to... Not tell him. This is the sort of thing you're meant to tell your boyfriend, right? If other people say they like you? He has no idea. ]
I think so? He seemed... Better for telling me. He said keeping it in was making him feel unsettled.
[It's okay, because he has no idea either. Raidou does appreciate the honesty, but he's not sure what to do with this information. Will it feel weird the next time he interacts with Fushiguro? Most definitely.]
For his sake, I hope so.
[He turns to fix them some coffee, and hands Yuji a cup. Something warm to drink always helps.]
[ Yuji takes the cup, but then shifts to lean in, wrapping one arm around Raidou to step close into his space, to hook himself over him as much as he can. ]
I'm fine? Just really confused, and surprised.
[ He wants a kiss, but he'll wait for a little bit. ]
Aah. It seems like you're always taking care of me.
[If it had gone much worse, he'd expect Yuji to be much more upset. Hopefully they means things can work out between the two.
He takes his own cup, and is more than happy to let Yuji come close, making himself comfortable against him.]
Do I? I don't mind, then. If you need help, I'm more than glad to give it.
[After all, that's what he's here to do now, in his mind. Help those who need it on other ways than he has been taught to do back home. And whatever it is Yuji needs, he won't hesitate to do his best to fulfill that.]
He’s my best friend, Johei. He’s the reason I’m fighting right now. That’s never going to stop, not because of something like this. I don’t even understand why…
[ Why Megumi - or anyone - would like him, when he’s a killer, he’s hurt people, he’s the reason people are dead. His hands are a weird shape and his smarts aren’t that great either.
Sighing, he tilts his head and just… Pouts. Just a little. ]
You’ll take care of me. And I’ll take care of you.
[ Pouting a little harder. He wants to poke and see if Raidou is jealous, but that seems silly in the long run. He’s lucky his boyfriend isn’t upset about the situation. ]
[Hard to be jealous when Yuji is standing here, arm around him, and not with Fushiguro instead. Raidou would never want to get in the way of their friendship, knowing how important it was to Yuji.
... He's not in the way, right?
That's a thought that will come back to bother him later.]
Of course. Together.
[As they so often like to say. Raidou clinks their mugs together lightly, a punctuation point; cheers to them.]

Someone confessed to me.

What did you tell him?
[Though, if Yuji's is standing here with him right now, he had an idea. Maybe that strange, undefined anxiety he felt can abate now.]
no subject
[ Which isn't exactly a 'rejection', but Megumi is aware he's dating Raidou, so obviously he was never going to say anything similar in return? ]
no subject
Is he okay?
[Poor Fushiguro. It must have been so hard for him to speak up. Why now though? Maybe the boy had just needed to get it off his chest?]
