Both of these pairings are definitely My Jam! ...and I have ideas for both of them uh.
Chuuji: How do you feel about Recolle AU post-'no seriously I don't date and you shouldn't be friends with me but hookups are okay I guess', and probably vaguely post-August event in that as soon as the streets are safe Shuji asks to see Chuuya at his apartment and basically tacklehugs Chuuya when he opens the door? YOU'RE SAFE HE'S SO HAPPY don't mind if he clings for a bit
obviously in an au where he didn't start dating mista during this event
Double Chuuya: can they meet each other hat shopping, I'm not entirely settled on whether I'd prefer 'bunaru is in yokohama instead of tokyo and also most people don't remember the authors' names so it isn't entirely weird that there are people with the same names except it really is' or 'generic jamjar au' but. hat shopping.
also it's important for you to know that bsd chuuya is four inches taller than bunaru chuuya. you're welcome.
OH NO SHUJI THAT'S CUTE and I'm here for it, chuuya doesn't know how to deal with this kind of affection, send help?? HE'S NOT USED TO THIS...
and double chuuyas absolutely need to meet hat shopping, that's perfect. hat shopping + bar trip?? + bsd chuuya being real smug that he's taller than this other chuuya, let's do it.
[There was only so much that Shuji could do with monsters out and about.
First of all, he couldn't fight, and even if he could have fought, he wasn't assigned to a team and wouldn't have been able to get into the same areas as them. He sent some of his savings to Chuuya and Baren to help fund first aid kits and water, and he helped Grell with her riddle task, but mostly he just waited and worried.
But the moment the monsters disappeared from the streets, the moment the missing people returned and everything was over, Shuji sent Chuuya a text.]
Are you okay? Can I come to your apartment? I'll bring wine. Victory wine.
[He'd rather bring wine because Chuuya won than because he ended up in the hospital.
I'm fine, I'm fine. give me a few to get back there and yeah, you can come over.
[shuji is one of the people he'll allow to see it; the guy lives in a dorm, it's not like he can judge the state of chuuya's bachelor pad and the very sad contents of its kitchen.]
[He's already seen it, also. So it's too late to keep up the illusion that he lives somewhere nicer.
When the doorbell ring comes and Chuuya opens the door, it's Shuji, like he probably expected. He may or may not have expected Shuji trying to hug him tightly the moment the door opens.]
You're okay, you're okay, you're okay...
i just woke up and forgot he'd seen it DON'T MIND ME
[chuuya is 100% not expecting the hug, no-- he stands there awkwardly for a second before he tugs shuji inside and pulls the door shut. he's not going to just hug in public, okay, the neighbors might be watching.
...once they're both inside, though, he drapes his arms around him with a little huff. chuuya's not exactly used to outright affection from people who aren't his niece, but... he'll take it.]
'Course I'm okay. What, did you think I'd let those things kill me?
[Shuji's not letting go any time soon, but he doesn't object to being tugged inside.]
I didn't think that! You're amazing! But it's different thinking that you're going to be okay and seeing you in front of me. I know you can take care of yourself, but I was still so worried...
[Chuuya is important to him. He can't not worry, when there's danger and Shuji can't do anything to help.]
[He steps back to open Chuuya's door, grabs the cloth bag with a couple bottles of victory wine in it (that he'd set down because hugging Chuuya was a much more pressing need), then closes the door again and joins Chuuya on the couch.]
[Hat shopping is not an activity that should be difficult. The most challenging part should involve your fashion sense. And Chuuya has great taste in hats.
The difficulty he's currently encountering is that the hat Chuuya wants is on a rack that's just outside of his reach, and he's not willing to try jumping for it in a public store and making himself look ridiculous. So he's currently glaring up at it while considering his options.
Have you ever wanted to be the one people ask to get things from high shelves, taller Chuuya? Now's your chance.]
chuuya's been on the other side of this many times, with something just outside his reach, and he's never willing to sacrifice his dignity by jumping for it either-- so of course he recognizes what's going on here pretty much immediately.
the question is whether to do something about it. but hats are important, and if this guy is anything like him, he won't ask for help, so...]
-here.
[chuuya picks the hat up and hands it down to him. there. hopefully nobody saw that.]
[Chuuya swaps out the hat that was on his head for the one that this taller stranger got down for him. Fits alright... He'll have to take a look in a mirror, but he'll probably buy this one.]
[and he sounds awfully proud of that... it's not that he looks down on buying off the rack (he is in a shop for that purpose, after all), but his main hat needed to be made just for him.
he reaches up, fingers trailing almost fondly along the brim.]
How about yours, huh? Your taste isn't half bad either.
What are you talking about? Have you been to school in the last twenty years?
[Not that he's exactly sure how long he's been in textbooks, but right now, there's no way someone would get through school and not have heard of him.]

no subject
[he gives shuji's hair a little ruffle, there, in an effort to reassure him, and his mouth quirks into a small smile.]
You can stop worrying, Shuji. Everything's fine.
no subject
[Shuji smiles, if a little weakly.]
I'm okay. I'm - just really glad you're safe, Chuuya.
[...maybe he should let go of Chuuya sometime, but he doesn't want to.]
no subject
[he just throws that out there so casually... he's not dead, it's fine?]
But I might suffocate in my own apartment if you latch onto me all day, y'know.
[there's a teasing lilt to his voice, though, and he's not exactly nudging shuji away.]
no subject
[Because he can unhug, but he doesn't really want to stop touching Chuuya completely any time soon.]
no subject
[he will nudge shuji a bit this time-- unhug for a minute, please-- so that he can disentangle himself long enough to settle back in on the couch.]
If you want to grab a drink or anything first, go ahead. You know where the kitchen is.
no subject

You really were excited to see me, if you forgot about that.
[but he doesn't mind. in fact-]
That's kinda cute.

Did you get your hat here? It's pretty stylish.
it totally hasn't been months....... rip
[and he sounds awfully proud of that... it's not that he looks down on buying off the rack (he is in a shop for that purpose, after all), but his main hat needed to be made just for him.

seems like it was just yesterday
[Meaning, decades ago.]
Went out of business. Too bad more people don't have the same taste we do.
[Good taste, that is.]
no subject
[people who probably pull the kind of salary that could singlehandedly keep a store in business: chuuya nakahara.]
You'll have to let me know if you've got any recommendations. What's your name?
[because this guy is definitely one that chuuya wants to know.]
no subject
Chuuya.
[The first name's good enough for an acquaintance.]
What's yours?
no subject
his eyebrows quirk up at the name, though-- now isn't that a coincidence?]
--it's Chuuya.
[just the first name isn't that big a deal, right?]
Nakahara Chuuya. Guess you can just use my last name, if that'd make it easier.
[even if it'd be a bit weird... he isn't used to the people he generally speaks with using anything else.]
no subject
It might, except that's my last name.
Named after a poet, huh?
[He, of course, is not, but he's happy to let Chuuya think they're both named after the same person.]
no subject
[okay, now that's weird. as far as he's known, there aren't any other people with his name, and yet here's a guy with the exact same one.
he's not entirely making sense, either.]
I'm not named after anyone, what are you talking about?
no subject
[Not that he's exactly sure how long he's been in textbooks, but right now, there's no way someone would get through school and not have heard of him.]
