[ What's that sound? Phone buttons, crackling, a strange signal, "Welcome" in a deep voice. Who has mail now? Weird. This joke goes way above Taichi's gen z head to make it himself.
Oh Taichi has a text. ]
Yeah! His name is Hikaru Hitachiin! He's one year younger than me and his birthday is in 3 days! He and his twin are fashion designers and a member of the super rich people society.
[ Back home anyway. Also no, he can't spell bourgeoisie. Nor can he say it but he hasn't been corrected yet on his pronunciation. He didn't even know where to begin on the spelling front though. ]
What the hell kind of explanation is that? You think you're going to impress me with your rich young boy toy?? How long's this been going on for? Since when were you into guys? Did you just give up on women because none of them ever gave you the time of day and you thought you'd have better luck on the other team? Are you just pitying yourself?
[ Wow... That's a lot of hurtfully phrased questions back to back and Taichi takes a minute to process it. ]
No sir! I figured warning you now will mentally prepare you for his complete lack of understanding when it comes to frugality because I don't want to fight with you but I will fight for him off you start yelling at him!
We've been together since January, but we met back in Prismatica. Also I recently discovered I am bisexual so I don't have to give up liking girls to like Hikaru, I just can't flirt with them or date them!
There's nothing pitiable about how I feel about Hikaru, Sakyo-san! ヽ( `д´*)ノ
[ If there's anything Sakyo hates (aside from frugal spending), it's being talked back to, and now would be the perfect time to give Taichi a good whack upside the head. Even if he doesn't quite deserve it.
This might be a conversation through text, yet even so... Sakyo can hear the conviction in Taichi's words. He's being honest. He's actually serious about this guy he's dating. How that happened, he doesn't know. It isn't that he doesn't want to accept the events that'd transpired here, but really, it's just that he's stubborn. And a little overprotective. Taichi's a sensitive individual. If someone's going to be with him, they need to treat him good, and Sakyo doesn't know a damn thing about this Hikaru. ]
[ At the very least, Hikaru's doing his best to do just that.. even if he screws up sometimes and Taichi just assumes he's the one who screwed up when that happens, but they usually figure it out. ]
I wouldn't so please accept him gently! [ He'll do it but he's well aware he'll get his ass kicked. But if there's one thing he learned from Sakyo, it's that you stand up for who you care about even if it's not your place. ]
It's another planet. It was really colorful but basically everybody got stuck aligned with a moon, and when the moon was out, it turned you into part-animal. I had dog ears and a tail. The only way you could make money and energy and stuff was to touch other people. Hikaru and I held hands. There were a couple of other people I held hands with, but he's always been my favorite even before we knew we liked each other. He's a lot of fun to be around, and he always looks super chic! Even Yuki-chan would approve! Ah, they're both fashion designers, by the way! Hikaru and his twin, Kaoru-san. They like pranks and luxury adventure and hair styling-- you saw my hair right? Hikaru's been doing it for me lately. It looks way shinier than it used to!
[ Hikaru and I held hands. There were a couple of other people I held hands with, but he's always been my favorite even before we knew we liked each other.
Why is this making him think of Azami like, immediately.
(Does Taichi think holding hands with someone means you're in a relationship???)
Okay no, no way, he's stupid but not that stupid. They must have genuine feelings for each other, like they're dating and all, that's fine, that's normal, it's just that............ this is Taichi. And the way he's explaining it makes NO SENSE. Sakyo needs a long moment to process all of this information, and even after he doesn't quite get it. Some place that turns you into part animal? He was a dog? They can end up on OTHER planets?
He's not a smoker, never plans to ever start, but if he had less self-control boy now would be a good time for a cigarette. ]
Did it ever occur to you that you could have saved me a major headache by just reaching out to me and going, "Hey, Sakyo, I'm dating someone." Because trust me, you could have, but you didn't. Now my head's full of all these details that make zero sense and I'm still processing the fact you're seriously involved with another guy.
[ The amount of explaining Taichi wants to do about alien fuckplanets is about the same as Sakyo wants to hear about them, which is why it doesn't make much sense. They were in fact not in a relationship during handholding time, though, and Taichi has decidedly gone far enough with Hikaru that there is no denying that they are together. Azami would kill him for even mentioning it.]
I wanted to formally introduce you two! "Meet the parents" dinner sort of thing! Though I couldn't afford it last month so I was waiting!
Sort of! I told Hikaru about Autumn Troupe and he actually has a friend who wants him to call him dad too so I couldn't help it! He knows I have an actual family too though, no worries.
[ There are more people like Omi out there that doesn't mind the parental nicknaming nonsense? What is wrong with the youth these days. ]
Don't give me this "meet the parents" bullshit then if they know it's fake. Listen, I get what's going on, my question's been answered, that's it. Go date your boyfriend, good for you. I don't care.
[ He is straight up lying. Tsundere gonna tsun. ]
I don't know why they'd want to meet me in the first place. Have you even told the Director about all this? Are you intending to introduce your boyfriend to her too?
If you don't care why'd you ask?? Sakyo-nii... 。*⭒⑅ ˙ྌ˙⑅⭒*。
Because you're an important part of my life and of course I'm going to tell my boyfriend about all of Autumn troupe and the director. If she wants to meet them she can, but she's always busy somehow! You're not in the yakuza here so you don't even have a job, you have plenty of time.
[ Somehow, Taichi has faith that Izumi will somehow have built an entire theater while Sakyo is still trying to comprehend how his fakeson has a boyfriend. ]
Because you're the type of moron that could get catfished by an actual fish.
[ Don't project familial feelings of love and respect onto him!!
Also what the fuck Taichi you basically called him POOR??? Grounded. ]
You're saying I'm more approachable because I'm jobless. Your boyfriend is rich. What about that screams, "This is a great person to have associated with me"?!
He's rich in his world, not this one. In this one, I was able to afford my own place because I learned how to save money from you. I maybe had to get it sooner than I wanted because I got kicked out of the inns so I don't have a lot of furniture, but I'd be living on the streets if I didn't know how to save money Sakyo Style!
In the end, it's thanks to Sakyo-nii that my bf and I can sleep in a comfy awesome bed together when he visits! (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
[ He doesn't know whether to be genuinely flattered that he actually put into practice Sakyo's constant budgeting and money saving even when he wasn't with him, or disgusted that he just told him he and his boyfriend fuck.
They totally fuck. He didn't say it, but they share the same bed sometimes they're teenagers they're dating they ABSOLUTELY FUCK. ]
[ The joke's on you, Sakyo, Taichi still has his V Card if you only count the Full Experience.
He was texting not talking but instead of typing words he just sends a pic of his Queen sized bed, with a giant Akapoyo-kun plush on it, and there's a framed love letter visible near the bed. ]
