Right, it's not so bad. I have a bit of a headache and it hurts to touch, but other than that it's fine. I probably should have covered it but I was really excited to come see you!
[...yeah leave it to Fai to get distracted from his awesome, life-altering revelation by muscles. /facepalm]
Hyuu~ You're definitely a sight! Not that you were bad before, of course! [The slightest of pauses, then nonchalantly:] Has Majima seen you, since all this happened?
Ah... [Fai's smile fades a bit. Kiryu's probably right.] Do you have any you can spare, maybe? I mean, after I show you my new trick? If not it's fine! I think I have some frozen veggies at home.
[...Kiryu is getting a very sly, very suggestive smirk now.]
Okay, now bear with me! I've only been able to do this since last night, so--
[After a few seconds a soft, warm glow pierces through the darkened room. Fai is cupping his hands together, and the light is held between them. And it's not coming from anything, just... a little glowing ball, resting in his hands.]
[The light illuminates Fai's face enough to show that he's grinning like a loon.]
I know! I mean I guess anything is possible after we were a few inches tall. And after you went from super-cute to stud-muffin and everything! So maybe mine isn't quite as impressive, but I really like it~
[Fai gives him a skeptical--albeit good-natured--look at that.]
Kiryu, you remembered how to fight out of nowhere and got ripped overnight. I... am a flashlight, apparently. But hey, at least I'll save on batteries!
[He presses his hands together to extinguish the light]
Are you kidding me? Like I said, you were already cute, but now you're like catnip. If you ever have to even try to find a date after this I will be floored.
[See this? This is the most smug expression ever. Fai does smug really, really well.]
Uh huh. Well, I'm going to go show your not-sweetheart my cool new trick later too, because he's a big nerd and I think he'd appreciate it. Can I maybe steal that ice pack from you for a few minutes before I go?

[ Hopefully..... ]
I, uh... Thanks. [ He's still a little embarrassed!! ] I guess I really must be some kind of badass, looking like this.

[ That's concerning, Fai!! Kiryu is going to keep blushing under all these compliments. ]
Ah, yeah, he has. He stopped by yesterday on his way to work.
no subject
[...Kiryu is getting a very sly, very suggestive smirk now.]
Aaand~? What did he say?
no subject
[ Kiryu's always prepared! And also really bad at catching flirting cues from dudes... ]
He was a little distracted by other stuff. But he did that it made sense that I remembered fighting those tigers.
[ Disappointing... ]
no subject
Yeah, I'll bet he was distracted by something alright.
[But enough hinting about his friends needing to get over it and kiss already--there'll be plenty of time for that later. For now...!
Fai rubs his hands together gleefully.]
Okay stud, can we turn out the lights? It'll make my trick look even cooler!
no subject
[ These innuendos and allusions are just flying over his head. Though "stud" is definitely not anything anyone's called him before. Ever. ]
Okay.
[ THAT'S DEFINITELY A SUSPICIOUS THING TO ASK BUT Kaz trusts Fai so of course he'll go ahead and hit the lights. ]

This is really cool. It's like magic-- that's way cooler than anything I could do.

[He presses his hands together to extinguish the light]
Hit the lights?
no subject
Mine's just helping me save time on going to the gym. Making light out of nothing is pretty rad.
no subject
Are you kidding me? Like I said, you were already cute, but now you're like catnip. If you ever have to even try to find a date after this I will be floored.
no subject
I'm not... I'm not really looking for anyone right now.
[ Well, at least he's not looking because he's kind of already found someone he likes. ]
no subject

no subject
[ Somehow, Kiryu is both dying of embarrassment and also going to get you that ice pack, Fai. Consider it a blessing. ]
no subject
[He just smirks and perches on the arm of the couch with his arms crossed while Kiryu makes his escape.]
no subject
[ He pauses at the freezer, staring down this bright blue ice pack. ]
Is it obvious? Do you think he knows?
[ Kiryu, you're not the obvious one here... ]
no subject
[a la Seven Minutes in Heaven.]
...a closet, not the closet. But it's not just you that's super obvious, so don't worry too much.
no subject
[ You guys sang a Disney duet together, who were you trying to kid??? ]
You think so? Are you sure?
no subject
Pretty sure. Like 'I'll agree to wear black and brown together for a month straight if he's not into you' kinda sure.
[Black and brown, abomination.]
no subject
I guess I'll keep that in mind... I had no idea.
no subject
I just want you two to be happy. You're both so nice and you deserve nice things.
no subject
Thank you, Fai. I mean it when I say I'll keep it in mind.
[ It's too bad Kaz isn't the type to update his Facebook status. ]
