a few weeks, maybe? why would you have to befriend me all over again

do you think i'd forget you this quickly

Two years for me, lad. Nearly.
That's how long I was gone.
But it looks like it was just a few suns here.

Doesn't look like I missed anything, though
Unless the tentacles and ghosts made a return?
I suppose it's good to be back if you're still here, though ❤️

wait, hold up ... TWO YEARS???? MISS MEGUMI THAT'S A HELLUVA LONG TIME

[ but she gave him a little heart he can't not acknowledge that ....... the friendship must be returned. ] but i'm -- i'm glad to see you again too?? even if it's shitty that the moon kidnapped you again

[ Josuke hasn't known her long enough to know how she changed, pretty likely, but there is a pointed difference in how excitable she was before even in texts to now.

Also heart acknowledgment?? Cute?? ]

Didn't even remember this place when I went back, so it wasn't so bad.
Trying to remember it all now that I'm back, though.
A lot happened, too. Nothing you need to worry about.
I'm just more relieved that things were as I left them when I returned.
So if you were worried about leaving things undone—
It doesn't matter. You'll still get to do them when you get sent back.
I might need your help, if you have the time...

[ Yes his username just changed during the conversation sorry Megumi it really just b like dat

She does sound a little more serious. Well, of course, she's two years older! But he is curious about what happened back home. ]

that's actually really relieving to hear. thanks for telling me. i don't know how long i'll be stuck here and i don't want to leave my mom alone for too long. she might get lonely in the house by herself.

what do you need me for? i'll be happy to do anything

You'll be able to go right back to her. She won't even know you were missing—

( JOSUKE has changed his username to sOfTaNdWet )

— ... nice name. Are you trying to say something, lad? I suppose it's good to be eager, but you shouldn't tell everyone that.

[ SHE'S DYING. ]

huh??? what's ... what's wrong with it

it's just a song i like ......

Edited (misread the tag ) 2019-11-16 16:28 (UTC)

Those are lyrics from a song?!
Your world's songs must be wild.
Now I want to hear it.
Do you have a Birdbox from the Ware Wolf Shop here?

we got another song a guy wrote about how much he likes big butts. it's pretty funny

yeah i got one of those! my birdie's called 'jellybean' -- reimi helped me name her! it's nice that she's a robot so i don't actually have to do much to take care of her [ He's the kind to pet other people's dogs but not get one of his own ... ]

I like big arses, too. Sounds like a song I should know.

[ She's still laughing at "Soft and Wet"— so much for a serious conversation! ]

Maybe you should come by and let me listen to the kind of music you have.
Do you sing too?

[ big butts are nice and he cannot lie. even if he'll try to look pure by saying 'personality is most important'. ]

cool, i could do that! i'll show you that sir mix-a-lot song too

i ... like to sing sometimes but wouldn't say i'm that great. sure wish i could sing.

[ No one is pure, everyone's a horndog. ]

Suppose some things have to fall short to balance out how sweet you are otherwise, aye?

At least I didn't forget that much.

[ Josuke's a dear- she's glad he's still around. ]

Even if you're stuck here, you sound like you're happy. That's inspiring, Josuke.

oh. thanks, miss megumi. i'm glad you think so ... [ Of course, she only thinks so because he's only shown her his nice side so far. He does have a cheekier side that can earn the scorn of some. ]

it sucks to be stuck anywhere and i miss my mom and best friend a lot, but there's no use moping around, right? i kinda think of this place as a weird space vacation i can't leave. the iris cycles can be annoying but it's otherwise not a bad place.

what was that thing you wanted help with?

[ Not that she'd complain if he was cheeky— she certainly didn't behave any less before her trip back home! ]

Aye. Moping would only make your friends sad and you even sadder anyroad.

Might as well make the most of it!

[ Though, his question makes her grin a bit at the screen even if he can't see it. ]

I want someone to look around with. I remember most of this place, but having company when I do learn it all again is ideal! So, how about a date?

huh?? a date?? you really wanna go on a date with me

[ MEGUMI, THAT'S EMBARRASSING, STOP. He's blushing a little now. Then again, going on a 'date' with an older woman somehow makes him feel more grown up and important (wow, teenagers). Of course, he's going to assume she just means a friend-date. ]

i guess you do look fun to hang with ... i don't see why not

Why not? Dates are nice! We can hang out, find places to eat, hold hands— And what do you mean I "LOOK" fun? 😠

[ JOSUKE?? She tries to convey some playful petulance to her text ]

That's it, we're just going to have to have fun together the entire time! Clearly you have doubts about how much fun I can be!!

We're going to go to an arcade! If you beat me in three games, I'll buy you whatever you want!

[ He thought he actually did make her angry for a second, but the more he reads her text the more he starts to see she's just joking around. ]

NO!! No, no doubts ... That's not what I meant!! been a while since anyone's asked me on a date, so uh, i didn't really know what to say

but -- guess i can't turn an offer like that down. are you good at games, miss megumi?

I've picked up a few things!
Games like this don't exist in my world
A few do, but none like these!
What kind do you like?

[ She's curious about what the cute guys play! ]

Edited 2019-11-21 12:42 (UTC)

i like the action or shooting ones most. i'll play any of them though, except the crane games. those are rigged. no way anyone actually gets the prizes inside.

what about you?

You think? I've won lots of crane games!

Granted, I might have cursed a lot at them...

But I'm pretty good at them all the same!

Looks like we've got lots of kinds to try out, aye?

When are you free?

really? guess your coordination must be better than mine ...

[ He still thinks they are RIGGED. ]

i'm with my boss-lady lottie right now, but i should be free in the evening. she won't need me then.

Lottie's my girl, so do everything she says. You'd best not make her cry at any time, she has allergies! Suppose that makes you a crew mate now on her team.

[ Guess who handles Lottie's Prismagram? ]

Glad she has you, though. But I did make sure things would be covered if I was gone! Which I was! When did you start?

Edited 2019-11-27 12:20 (UTC)

i'd never make her cry! well ... not on purpose.

[ he's self aware enough to know he says some stupid blunt things at times. ]

been maybe a month or two. i didn't know you worked for her too though. were you her last PA?

Good lad. She could do with someone cute and encouraging like you around.
I look after her however she needs. Her looks, health and photos!
Her Prismagram is full of everyone's efforts for her ❤️

Have my own clinic here, so I only handle her when others aren't around
We eat out regularly though
If these few suns away hasn't changed that...

Say, what do you like to eat?

so you were something like her PA too, huh? wonder how we missed each other then ... you must've been real busy with your clinic

italian food's pretty great. i don't mind sushi either. you, uh, asking 'cause you're offering ...?
