where oowada loses all ability to can.

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[oowada isn't sure what he was expecting exactly.

bro's not home, shouldn't be home for the next few hours. they had come in together, had something to eat, ishimaru had been talking about some... thing with equations or formulas or some kind of science shit he was currently studying and whatever, he passed his test, so oowada just blanked out on the rest. he does that a lot whenever ishimaru talks about school or cram and especially when he starts in on the mondo don't you want to better society and become an upstanding citizen who separates their trash on time and what the fuck, kiyotaka but whatever.

he's used to it. in fact, he'd be lying if he said he didn't like it sometimes. he's got his own man's path to follow and if ishimaru has stricter rules, that's his business. oowada has enough to deal with his gang and keeping his bike fixed up.

normally they'd go for a ride together, it had become a thing to do when they were alone and oowada wanted to share the wind whipping through their hair and the world zooming by them.

today though. they're in his room. they're sitting on his bed.

and then ishimaru pulls the book out of his bag and oowada is left sitting shirtless and cold.]

...the hell are you doing?

Comments

[disciplinarymeasures]

[Ishimaru gives Oowada a strange look, as though he's the one being weird here.

spoilers ishimaru you are definitely the weird one]

I'm educating myself!

[NO WHY ARE YOU SO PROUD OF THIS

STOP]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[WHY ARE YOU BRINGING EDUCATION TO HIS BEDROOM.]

You're studying now?

[he is so offended on so many levels. manly levels.]

[disciplinarymeasures]

I'm not studying, exactly, I just need to look something up!

[but y u mad bro?]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[going to reach over and move the book in his hands towards him so he can read the spine

and

salfjak; is that a guide.]

[disciplinarymeasures]

[YEAH SO WHAT IF IT IS

DON'T JUDGE!!!!!

Ishimaru, for his part, has failed to notice just how awkward everything has suddenly gotten. After a few moments of reading, he snaps the book shut.]

Alright, I'm finished! That wasn't so bad, was it?

[ishimaru it was far worse than you could have ever anticipated]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[OKAY. TAKE A BREATH, OOWADA.

...TAKE ANOTHER ONE.

OKAY.]

Fine, just, c'mere.

[disciplinarymeasures]

[Ishimaru does as he's asked, still not QUITE sure what Oowada's problem is. He just wants to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible!]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[you're making him feel so awkward. but he is going to soldier on!!

an arm is going to go around your waist, a hand moves to cup the back of your neck.]

Kiyotaka....

[goooooooooooing in for the kiss.]

[disciplinarymeasures]

...Mondo...

[and everything is all like DOKIDOKI until he continues:]

...You should probably not tilt your head that much.

[okay you know how earlier i said that tag was the most secondhand embarrassment-inducing

this one has now taken its place]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

...huh.

[staring dumbly. staring dumbly until he realizes what you are doing to him you bastard and you know what, LETTING GO OF YOU RIGHT NOW.]

Why don't you just go to hell then!

[disciplinarymeasures]

I'm just trying to correct your form!

[shineoncrazydiamond]

My form didn't need correcting before!

[disciplinarymeasures]

For the sake of your own comfort, I had to speak up! Tilting your head too far could result in some kind of neck pain, you know!

[nope he's not dropping this]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[just going to put his face in his hands and groan.]

I thought we were gonna fool around, not you fucking lecturing me.

[disciplinarymeasures]

[LECTURE?? OOWADA PLS THIS IS HARDLY A LECTURE]

...Ah, well...

[He doesn't really have a response to that...Ishimaru just sort of clears his throat awkwardly. Apparently the situation has finally caught up with him.]

...I want to make sure we do everything right.

[He offers this as an explanation.]

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[WHATEVER. HE HASN'T BUILT UP IMMUNITY TO YOU YET, ISHIMARU.

Removing his hands, his cheeks are already stained with a blush.]

It's not a math, Kiyotaka. [ugh] Shit, it's us. It's supposed to feel good and I'm your man, right? So, I'm gonna make you feel good!!

[disciplinarymeasures]

[BUT THAT'S NOT FORMULAIC AT ALL!!!

However, Ishimaru doesn't want to hurt Oowada's feelings, so - and it's obvious to anyone that this is almost painful to say:]

Then let's do things your way this time.

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[unfortunately mister oblivious here? miiiiiight have missed out on that.

instead!! wrapping his arms around you and lifting you up onto his lap he goes!]

omg why are all his facial expressions so intense

[disciplinarymeasures]

[Ishimaru has no idea what to do here. So he's just sort of not going to do anything. If he looks uncomfortable at all, it's nothing personal - he's just not used to doing things spontaneously.]

my mind is only going to horrible places so i can't help you

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[oowada can see that he does, actually. he blinks a little, before the pet name slips out. he doesn't use it often but well, they're alone and ishimaru is so warm in his lap.]

Babe? You lookin' like I just stuffed you in a shoebox.

sobbing

[disciplinarymeasures]

[Ishimaru's face turns ever so slightly red at the pet name.]

It's nothing! Doing things without planning them out...it's something I'm not really used to, that's all!

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[he is going to regret this. he is so going to regret this.]

...did you plan what we were gonna do?

[disciplinarymeasures]

[what have yoU DONE]

It isn't anything you could call a concrete plan, as I didn't have enough time to finish it before cram school. Think of it as more of an outline!

[shineoncrazydiamond]

[













silence.]

[disciplinarymeasures]

[Ishimaru gets up, grabs his bag, and fishes through it. Then, he presents a piece of paper to Oowada. It's just a list of bullet points in impeccable handwriting.

SCHEDULE 14
-Walk to Mondo's home together
-See schedules 4, 7, 8, 10 for suggestions on how to spend the time
(NOTE: review motorcycle owner's manual in case the conversation goes in that direction)
-IF Daiya-san is home, leave promptly
-IF Daiya-san is not home, then:
-

And that's where it cuts off.]
