[LOOK... He started becoming wary of meeting new people once he realized he was part of a select group that looks literally insane to everyone else. He's tried not to be vocal about the withdrawing he's been doing lately, and looks a little discomforted for a fraction of a second before waving a hand.]
I've been really busy lately! I don't have time to meet strangers just off the street or whatever. [ELITE WITH FRIENDSHIP.]
Anyway, I'm not letting you near my things including my nails.
[Kashuu, it's adorable how you think Yamato doesn't notice that sort of thing... he tilts his head slightly, questioning, but Kashuu's skating right on past it as usual, so he lets it go for the moment.]
I wouldn't make them look that bad... [PROBABLY... look it's nothing acetone can't fix, right? (yams no)]
I don't want to go shopping for Jim. [Even if they buy him a shitty joke "present", he doesn't want to spend money on that asshole!! Though speaking of Jim--] I could probably write a poem to Janet about how much we hate him, though.
One? Yes, you would. [Trust no Yams with nail polish, even if remover is on hand...] Two, as much as I'd love to do that, it's not gonna grey a square out. It has to be a nice ode, and trashing her trashy fiance or whatever probably isn't gonna pass. ...But I guess it's not like they specify whose standards "nice" has to fit.
You never know... [It'd pass his own standards!! But no, Kashuu's probably right... he sighs.] I'd rather do that than, I don't know, slap a stranger or something, though. I don't trust her, but at least she's not obnoxious.
[Normally, Yamato would chide him for that, but no... cordial is about as good as he's going to get in this case too.]
Odes are like poems or something, right? So we just have to figure out some rhymes and we'll be done. [Time to bust out the thesaurus that these two millennial bozos definitely own-- not.]
Kiyomitsu, I don't think it'll count as an "ode" if it's just a single haiku.
[LOOK... look... he may not give a shit about his own college degree but that doesn't mean he's bad at school, okay. DO IT PROPERLY SHOECASH.]
Mm, we can probably do it now, don't you think? How about... [A glance at the time--] Why don't I get lunch started, and we can just write them and be finished when it's ready.
Alright, if you say so. [Said with the tone of "guess it'll just be me getting that bingo, NERD".
HELLA SPOILED THOUGH, GOD. It's a good thing Yamato likes cooking or they'd both be suffering big time.]
Curry, I got this new spice mix I want to try. It shouldn't take too long. [And he can write his stupid poem song thing while the rice is cooking because that's about the level of effort he wants to put into this. SO UP HE GETS, probably bumping into Kashuu as he heads for the kitchen, oops. Sorry not sorry.] No snacking until it's done!
And they're equally bad!! Because guess who wants to join the kitchen party, it's catshuu, who is still here. Why is it still here. Why is Yamato so weak. THE ETERNALLY UNANSWERED QUESTION.]
Watch where you're hitting! [YOU WANNA GO SHOECASH yams will slappy hands duel you in any universe, bring it on. Except right now he's moving to switch on the kettle, since he's assuming Kashuu is gonna write his non-ode in here and he might as well get some tea going in the meantime.]
Catshuu also jumps up onto the counter without pause because he does what he wants, and he starts immediately climbing up Kashuu's arm like a tree when he reaches over to pluck him off. Writing an ode like this is going to be hard...]
[ROLLING HIS EYES... luckily Yamato left most of the things he needed out on the counter last night, so all he really needs to do is get the chicken out of the fridge. He does, and whacks Kashuu's arm with it as he's walking by... IT'S WRAPPED, BUT STILL COLD AND SLIMY, HA.]
[And of course Yamato just laughs merrily, because a jerk is EXACTLY WHAT HE IS.]
Aren't you supposed to be writing? Come on, we don't have all day! [Conveniently forgetting that he is ALSO SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING THIS STUPID ODE yams focus]
No it's not. [Making a face!!] And even if it is, you're not done cooking.
[Why is he a brat...
ANYWAY he'll huffily get started on his ode... AND TIMESKIP PROBABLY because bingo time and also cooking isn't exciting when he's too busy to steal stuff from the pan in the first place!!]
[There's a long pause, which could be attributed to either Yamato focusing on stirring the curry a few more times before he turns off the oven, or Yamato trying not to laugh.]
That's pretty terrible. [HARSH.
But look, his isn't much better... STILL THOUGH he can at least pretend!! So after clearing his throat just as dramatically:]
The sky will once again be blue because of you, because of you. The sky is blue, the sky is blue, because the ocean is blue too. The sky is blue, the sky is blue, when cows say "moo", it turns blue. The sky will be blue because your eyes are blue too.

no subject
Eh... Whatever, fine. It's not like we have to be gushing compliments or anything.
[He can be... cordial... which is basically the same as being nice!]
no subject

no subject
Yeah, basically. Rhymes that you can sing, but it's not like it actually said to sing it, so maybe we can just do haikus or something?
[They're gonna nail this.]
no subject
[POETRY.
He frowns after a second, though, tapping his lip.]
It says we have to share it with someone though, don't we? Does it count if we write it together, or do we have to write our own and show each other?
no subject
[Perfect... But oh god SHARING IT.]
Uh— I guess we'll probably have to write 'em separate. Shouldn't be too hard, though.

[Waving a hand, it's whatever Yams!! He's doing it his way!!]
I guess that's fine, though. What're we having for lunch?

Watch where you're walking. [BATTING AT HIS ARM AS HE PASSES who's the real menace here, Kashuu or catshuu.
He also trails after Yamato as he heads into the kitchen because of course he does...]
I'm not gonna snack.
no subject

[PUNK...
Catshuu also jumps up onto the counter without pause because he does what he wants, and he starts immediately climbing up Kashuu's arm like a tree when he reaches over to pluck him off. Writing an ode like this is going to be hard...]
you said yes
Don't dish what you can't take.
WHAT
[HIS ARM HAS BEEN CHICKEN SLIMED, THIS IS THE WORST... Now he has cold slimy chicken bag residue on one arm and a cat on the other, who is he.]
kashuu's suffering is ur fault bc u said yes
Aren't you supposed to be writing? Come on, we don't have all day! [Conveniently forgetting that he is ALSO SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING THIS STUPID ODE yams focus]
oh omg i was so confused.. u demon
You're supposed to be writing, too! Don't think you're getting out of it.
[Writing AND cooking lunch, Yamato has a hard life.]
CHICKEN CASHEW
I'm already done! [LIES... or is it. He can be pretty good at bullshitting when he wants to be...] But I'm not going to share until you're done too.
AAA god let me live
No it's not. [Making a face!!] And even if it is, you're not done cooking.
[Why is he a brat...
ANYWAY he'll huffily get started on his ode... AND TIMESKIP PROBABLY because bingo time and also cooking isn't exciting when he's too busy to steal stuff from the pan in the first place!!]
—I think I got mine. You?
no subject
But yes, Yamato's indeed finished with his... which he came up with in his head because he can't be bothered to waste paper on this nonsense.]
You first.
no subject
Okay, hang on.
[He didn't waste paper either, he just typed it out on his phone. NATURALLY. After dramatically clearing his throat:]
Janet, your eyes are blue.
Your fiance's an asshat.
You probably own a nice nail file, too.
I can respect that.
[nailed it.]
no subject
That's pretty terrible. [HARSH.
But look, his isn't much better... STILL THOUGH he can at least pretend!! So after clearing his throat just as dramatically:]
The sky will once again be blue
because of you, because of you.
The sky is blue, the sky is blue,
because the ocean is blue too.
The sky is blue, the sky is blue,
when cows say "moo", it turns blue.
The sky will be blue because your eyes
are blue too.
[DOES THAT EVEN COUNT]
no subject
Oh my god, that's like, fifty times worse than mine!
[At least his was more ode-like and didn't drag Jim, though?? BUT HEY the square only said it had to be nice to Janet, not to Jim.]
