[i'm glad gmail gave me ty's notif but not zia's since it worked out in tagging order anyway
When the ball goes flying off across the grass, Riku actually makes a speedy run for it. SHUT UP, HE'S STILL TRYING! Sort of. There's no way he will catch it in time, though, so as soon as it rolls into the goal, he slows into a jog, and then a walk, and then a stop.
Drops his head back. Pretends(?) to huuuuuugh from losing while trying to catch his breath.]
[the ball goes! and he grins even if this was kind of a copout. he will chase after it though to fish it out of the goal.]
It doesn't feel right to keep playing against someone who's gonna keep losing this badly. [teasing.] Breakfast sounds pretty good right about now, doesn't it?
[He's a smidgen hungover. For the tease, he gives the soccer ball a lil kicky out from under Taichi, sending it back in Yamato's direction since they're heading that way anyhow.]
I think I could use some breakfast, yeah. I'll race you.
[ it's not like it's taichi's soccer ball yamato isn't going to carry it, he just kicks it back in the direction of the field???? he watches riku run off and looks over at taichi ]
Am I watching you guys race too, now?
[ he's not running for riku's ego this isn't that kind of date but if taichi wants to. ]
He insisted on you still making the omelet, so... [ get to it. ]
[there's a squawk as the ball's kicked back, but he detours to grab it and dribble toward the bleachers where yamato is and racing riku over that way.]
Can't stop you, can I? [nyooooom.] I'll make the eggs, that's fine, you're making the rest though. Whatever Riku wants, right?
[ TELL ME WHEN I DONT TAG BACK I HATE GMAIL IT SKIPS ANNA'S NOTIF EVERY TIME!!!!
anyway, yamato nods at that ]
Pancakes it is. Got a specific kind in mind? [ he'll walk one they get there, and look significantly at taichi for some mysterious reason before he looks back at riku ] Since it's a date, I don't mind putting in the effort.
[so mysterious that i, ty, actually have no idea why this is happening. but taichi packs up the ball in his bag before flinging the bag over his shoulder, grabbing yamato's hand...and also grabbing riku's for the hell of it. it's a date after all.]
And what do you want in your eggs? Nothing too fancy, but I can figure out a few tricks.
Oh. First of all, Yamato has to be on the left because Riku won't let any holding on the bandaged lil paw hand. But he does not pull away... just... looks at Taichi, and then looks at Yamato like
is this okay it wasn't my fault your boyfriend just decided to friendly hold my hand and if I pull away that's rude help I'm a bisexual.]
Uh. Blueberry. [His egles.] .......just cheese is fine.
[ yamato just kind of smiles at riku from the other side of taichi, a little sly ]
Blueberry's good. I'll even make the whipped cream from scratch, since we're going all out. [ he does not seem mad taichi is holding riku's hand? come on riku. this is a date. get with the program. ] Coffee, hot chocolate or juice?
[yamato on the left is fine because he trusts him to be nice with his own fucked up hand. still, he nods along and starts walking off the field and toward the cafeteria to use the kitchen.]
Yamato's really good with the details, so don't be shy about asking for whatever you want.
[ he rolls his eyes at taichi but doesn't correct him, just following along ]
Iced coffee and orange juice, got it. But yeah, you just whip some cream. Maybe add some vanilla or sugar depending on how sweet you want it? It's a lot cheaper than buying it at the store. [ he realizes that riku does not know this, so: ] I've done most of the household chores at home since I was eight. Grocery shopping included.
[dw doesn't give zia anna tags and then it doesn't give me zia tags. i see. anyway no, let him exploit since yamato clearly knows what he's doing. so he's nodding along before giving riku a grin.]
Like I said. Yamato's good with details, which is why I know that if I also ask for iced coffee he's not going to give me any of the bitter shit.
Taichi hasn't learned to let that stop him yet. Even though he complains every time.
[ he says it with his own smirk after exchanging Looks with Riku over taichi, but lucky for taichi's life the cafeteria is not that far from the field, so they're here! yay. he lets go to start setting up stuff in the kitchen, because taichi is right about details and also yamato has pancakes!! to make!!! he's pulling out so many ingredients... wow... ]
I'm still not squeezing fresh juice, though. That's way too much.
[ but he will give Riku some premade juice to tide him over while they cook ]
[he makes a face at both of them because fuck you, bitter coffee is gross. but yamato pulls away to work on pancakes and taichi's busy grabbing eggs, cheese, a pan, etc.]
Don't slack off. [teasing, but he also puts everything on the counter and leans against it to wait.] Yamato should make the pancakes first because the eggs won't take as long and they'll get cold if we're waiting for those. So Riku and I will hang out and wait. Right?
[Sometimes PEOPLE just want to drink YOUR stuff no matter what. :unamused: He takes his turn leaning on the counter to stay out of the way when the two of them hurry to grab things.
That's a lot of ingredients...]
We could help, you know, [is what he says when Taichi joins him. Oh--juice.] Thanks. [He has one or two sips of it.]
He's right, Taichi, you could help. [ it's a little mocking as he flicks some water at him because yama washed his hands before making food, but in the end he shakes his head ]
I don't know what you'd help with, though... [ it's said pensively as he starts to make his pancake mix, doing that thing where you break an egg one handed ] It's just measuring stuff and mixing it. Pancakes aren't that complicated.
[ also he is fussy about making things and if it's not bust work he will frown ]
Could. But I'm pretty sure we'd just get in your way. [he's also aware yamato's. himself. so he is fine being lazy, leaning back to stretch out while he watches before glancing at Riku.]
Anyway you're definitely not allowed to help. The bid was for us to make breakfast for you, remember? That defeats the purpose if you're making your own breakfast.
[Like he's conspiring with Taichi about Yamato right in front of Yamato, but it's teasing. He idly bumps Taichi with his elbow, and then offers Taichi the glass of juice. Since the two of them were running around like idiots all over the field with a ball. Thirsty?
Riku probably has cooties.]
Fine. It just feels weird sitting and watching someone do all the work.
[Even if watching to see how pancakes are made is pretty interesting.]
[ taichi didn't get one poured out for him because he was in the kitchen and could've done it for himself!!! and he also makes a face at both of them. no conspiring where he can hear it!!! he can multi task cooking and talking!! and he is. also looking it up you can make iced coffee in like, five minutes, so that's not gonna take long for them to get ]
Sitting back and watching someone else do the work is what Taichi does best. [ not even true and definitely conspiring. he's whipping cream already because someone is spoiled and getting some in their iced coffee too! it's taichi. and riku if he wants it. ] You ever make pancakes?
[ because riku's watching yamato cook in interest and he's not used to that part? mostly because. he cooks alone mainly ]
[He'll just sip the juice in the middle of their lover's spat like a good third wheel once he gets it back again.]
Not exactly. I helped my mom when I was a kid, but I don't remember anything except making a mess. And, uh... something about the bubbles? When you flip them.
[As kids do. Fine motor skills? Who is she? He's still leaning on the counter with Taichi, idly watching, though.]
Sora and I spent most of our time down at the beach, or trying to convince our dads to row us to the other island we'd play on. We'd be starving by the time we got back. Once Kairi came, she was the only one who ever remembered to bring sandwiches.
Sora was too busy trying to eat a coconut without cutting it first. And I was too busy trying to get him or the other kids to sword fight me.

It's because I still don't feel great.
[He will keep up this act.]

You guys wanna call it early? If Riku's too hungover.
[ is he hungover? a mystery ]

Pancakes, too.

Yamato's really good with the details, so don't be shy about asking for whatever you want.
[helpfully exploiting his boyfriend.]
no subject
[The HECK is with that look. Okay, he is flustered and immediately looking away.
Also, stop exploiting Yamato.]
Iced coffee. Maybe some orange juice.

The bitter stuff is probably the only way I can keep Sora from stealing it and drinking it all.
[An amused look at Taichi before he exchanges a glance with Yamato, and then he just looks away to smirk to himself.]
Surprise me.

It's because you love spoiling me. [he just outright says it like an asshole who knows what his boyfriend's all about.] Also shut up, I do not.
[he gestures to yamato with the glass before handing it back to riku.] You get to witness him in his natural habitat.
