call me out v. 11.0

[misheard]

Call out one of the characters from my muselist with a starter, a prompt, a general 'hey can we do something with these characters' comment, a smoke signal, etc., and I'll get back to you with some kind of RP thread!

[Of course they're just joking. Heigo would never imagine Shuji to be doing anything else. He just shoots an even more wry look at Shuji as they sit down side by side.]

I can't think of a worse way to help me relax than asking me on a date. Even - no, especially if an old friend did so.

It'll be as undatelike as possible, then. We can talk about sports and beer.

[Shuji has nothing to say about sports and beer, he just wants to see if he can make Heigo laugh.]

[informantic]

[Oh yeah, that definitely gets a good laugh by Heigo standards, so much that he has to cover his mouth with his hand to make sure none of the food escapes.]

That would just take the evening from nerve-wracking to deeply awkward. Your best bet is to stick with the original plan of spoiling me.

[A gesture toward his plate with the fork:]

Which you really are, by the way. I didn't know you were a good cook.

[thesettingsun]

[That laugh means Shuji was successful. That's all Shuji could possibly ask for.]

I picked it up when I spent about a month inside to avoid the monsters in the city. There's only so much you can do while you're stuck indoors, and I wanted to help people out even though I couldn't fight yet.

[Heigo's expression softens, taking on a gently admiring look.]

And here I am, not even thinking past the part where I hide out and avoid things. I really do need help with this process, don't I?

[thesettingsun]

[Shuji gently nudges Heigo in the shoulder. Stop that.]

Not more than everyone else does. And you adjusted a lot quicker than I did, so don't feel too down on yourself.
