[ Kiryu smiles because Majima smiled and that's cause for celebration. ]
Oh, man, yeah... That week was awful. [ He looks down at his hands, taking the chance to grab some chopsticks while he frowns a bit. ] I managed to pull through thanks to that RC car I got off Amazon, but everyone's numbers really tanked... How did you guys work it out back then?
Yeah, we flew over to visit my mom's side of the family.
[ He smiles. The memories are fuzzy, but they're there and they're sweet. ]
Makoto was just starting to learn English and I didn't speak any Japanese so we came up with a bunch of silly codewords and stuff. He followed me everywhere.
[ Oh, now Kiryu's really blushing. A compliment like that from Majima makes him splutter a bit, almost choking on the last of his soup. How embarrassing... ]
I mean.. . in theory, I'd—that'd be cool. I don't think I'm there yet.

[ ok someone eventually comes and takes the order for the soup and the sushi he marked down and majima gets some tea and they're set. ]
How's work goin'? They treatin' ya any better?
no subject
Yeah, I'm doing a lot better, actually. I've helped close a lot of sales in the last two weeks, so things are looking good.
[ Who knew a change in attitude could help so much? ]
How's business at the club?

We bought doll furniture -- me 'n Tuuri, we went on a whole adventure and it ended up workin' out pretty well.
no subject
Oh, that's smart. I'm glad you had help.
[ Tuuri's a good girl. ]
...People still came by the club?
no subject
Oh, yeah, lots of regulars an' stuff. Not a lot of Retrospecters, of course.
no subject
Right... makes sense. Even with our numbers down, everyone else at work acted like it was just a normal week.

It's super weird. Like what does Retrospec have to do with any of that?

[ he just wants to eat sushi with a cute guy not contemplate the problems of the universe tbh ]
no subject
Ah. Thanks. Smells great.
[ He'll just wait for Majima before he starts because there's no need for pleasantries when you can't remember Japanese. ]
no subject
Have you ever been to Japan? I can't remember if you've told me before.
no subject
Yeah, I went a few times as a kid. But I was really young, I don't remember too much of it.
no subject
[ its nice getting to hear kiryu talk about himself tbh ]
