[?! HELLO]

--Wait, right now?

[two of them]

[goalsides]

[there's the click of a camera while taichi's busy trying not to laugh.]

[ghoststrums]

Taichi! [ they look so stupid!!! hits his shoulder ] Take a better one!

[darksubverted]

[OH GOD HE LOOKS STUPID WHY]

Don't use that one! Delete it right now and take another one.

[goalsides]

[cackling like the gremlin he is.]

No way, I'm keeping it! [would you really deny the joy of a child?] But we'll take a better one. [adjusting the camera...]

Ready?

[ghoststrums]

[ he takes a second to glare like "I'm definitely deleting it when you're not looking" before he sighs ]

Ready. [ he'll even smile for this one!

and then pinch taichi's waist when he takes the picture so his face goes weird ]

[darksubverted]

You're not keeping it.

[If Yamato doesn't delete it, he will find a way to, but it's fine. They are the same person, so he knows Yamato will delete it in secrecy.]

...

[He actually gets into place this time with the two of them. He does that stupid thing where he's trying to look cool and collected, but it's hard not to have the start of a smile at the corner of his lips. So basically he's smiling.]

Ready.

[goalsides]

[yamato's such a bitch? riku's a NICE BOYFRIEND and just letting him do these things, but when he feels the pinch he does twitch and he takes the picture. his face is basically >| but it's fine.]

Well now you ruined that one, too. [jerk!!] Guess we'll have to do a third one?

[...this may be a secret ploy to have multiple pictures of them for his own memories, it's fine.]

[ghoststrums]

What are you talking about? You're the one that made a face.

[ complete fake innocence here even though he gives riku a little smirk like riku was in on it. he was not. it was all yama ]

[darksubverted]

[That's fine. He is an accomplice because he returns Yamato's smirk like a gremlin.]

Maybe you should take better pictures, and you'd only have to bother taking one.

[He will take a third one........as if he didn't have a board full of pictures.]

[goalsides]

Maybe you guys should've just been ready the first time. [grumbling. but he adjusts the camera for A THIRD TIME for A NICE PHOTO.]

[ghoststrums]

[ this time it fully is a nice photo. he is even smiling normally instead of gremlin smirking? and he kisses taichi's cheek to make up for bullying him before. even if it was in revenge ]

You should've been ready the second. [ looking at riku next and he tugs a bit at the blue in his hair. unrelated: ] Think you'll keep dyeing it?

[darksubverted]

[Thank GOD this one is good. He... kind of wants it, too, but he's too shy to ask. It's fine.

He reaches up to touch the pulled hair, and then sweep his fingers through it a bit.]

I'm not very good at that sort of thing. [...] ...Maybe. It's a little cool.

[It did give him the 2% confidence and now he's here neck-deep in a gay poly relationship, hello.]

[goalsides]

[riku truly doesn't have to ask because he's sending both of them the nice photos even if he's keeping the two crappy ones for himself, too.]

It looks good on you. You should leave it. Yamato and I can't really do anything like that back home, so at least one of us should do something like that.

[ghoststrums]

Yeah. [ also it's yamato's color so he has a vested interest in Riku keeping it for that reason. he does not say that ] We can't have dyed hair at school at all. Not that Taichi tried it here either...

[ side eyes :/ ]

[darksubverted]

[Yamato......... He'll show up later with a blue and an orange streak. Funny. ANYHOW, HE'S EMBARRASSED AGAIN, and ends up flushing.]

School rules...? That sucks.

[He follows the side eye to Taichi. Yeah, he didn't do the cool thing, did he? Stupid.]

You should try it before you leave. You can use something that washes out? Or maybe one that clips in...

[goalsides]

[at this rate taichi's going to eventually assume yamato likes riku more than he likes him and rightfully so. regardless, wow, he does not actually acknowledge that with anything more than a shrug.]

It wouldn't look as good. I think it works better for you two. [because they're the same person. leather jacket...colored hair...tsundere...wow. he has a type.]

[ghoststrums]

[ this is a very embarrassing thing to say but now that he has two boyfriends he can hide behind the other one when he says it so; ]

I think you underestimate how good I think you look. [ anyway wow fascinating never let him say words again ] But clip-ons don't look good on anyone.

[ that's his fashion expertise. ]

[darksubverted]

[Gently, he jabs an elbow at Yamato's chest. Hush, you. He's just trying to coax Taichi into trying it at all. Agree first, do the switcheroo after.]

I already said you'd look fine. Yamato's right, though. It'd be hard to mess up what already looks good. [Stop.] Maybe your friend, uh... Mimi? Could help.

[HE DOESN'T KNOW THESE PEOPLE, LET HIM LIVE.]

[goalsides]

[he's not entirely sure what to say to that so he blinks...and just kind of looks elsewhere, scrolling through photos on his phone.]

We'll see. It's not a big deal either way. I'll think about it though.

[ghoststrums]

[ elbows riku back? wtf? rude??? and then he's leaning to look through taichi's pictures ]

His sister's a better choice for that. He can't say no to her. [ like he's ANY BETTER about that with takeru??? but it's fine this is doxx taichi hours ] Let's take another one tomorrow, too. We all looked like we could use a nap in this one.

[ they still will tomorrow this is just an excuse for more pictures ]

[darksubverted]

[Ow. He rubs the elbowed place idly even if it didn't even hurt. And then he just

decides to be nosy himself, too.]

I'll keep that in mind. [Using Taichi's sister against him. Not that, uh--he can talk about having people to use against him. Fck.] We should probably rest, to be honest.

Today was... long.

[goalsides]

[he just makes a face.]

Leave Hikari out of this. [his pictures seem to mostly be from big group gatherings like stargazing and the barbeque and a few of fall dorm in their halloween stuff before he joined and the maid cafe and stuff. a few pictures with people, etc.] But tomorrow sounds good to me, too.

[and then, in true gremlin fashion:] We're staying with you tonight, right?

[riku apparently doesn't get a say in it.]

[ghoststrums]

[ expectantly looks at riku at that because he also clearly wants this but didn't want to ask???? ]

[darksubverted]

[THIS IS TRUE EVIL???

He just got over being red in the face, and now he's red in the face yet again. And he won't meet their looks.]

Uh... sure. [He could have hesitated a little more to at least pretend, but he did not.] ...That's fine.

[He glances up slowly. Now they gotta figure out who is the biggest spoon. Does Taichi starfish as badly as Sora?]
