[ Yep, we all know the one.......... Kiryu splutters to regain his breath as Majima knocks the wind out of him. He rolls onto his stomach and stands up, but he's pretty winded.
Or he's gonna try and do that standing-up heat action where he grabs a dude, whichever works. ]
[Well, it's been an interesting experience. Ever since this Retrospec shit started happening he's been having trouble reaching his sisters that don't live in Recolle.
It worries him since while he honestly doesn't want to live with them (superstitions he's created about himself and such) he still wants to keep in touch with them to know they're safe. He's still a doting big brother in his own way.
Unfortunately, this rerouting business means that others are learning this first hand.]
Oh, thank God you answered. I was getting worried since I my calls couldn't reach you!
[Yeah, pretty sure Isaac didn't mean to call Kiryu with that worried and kind tone he has...]
Oh. It means you run kind of hot and cold. Like how you're saying you don't want Majima's help. But deep down, you appreciate it. You just won't admit it.
[There's a hitch in his voice as he realizes he has a wrong number. It's true he's a pretty doting brother but it's something he likes to keep hush hush about if only because it's embarrassing.]
