_{[ It's rare to see Aoba in such enthusiasm right off of the bat. It catches Karamatsu's attention instantly since it's such a rare form for Aoba. He responds with just as much excitement because he really feeds off the energy of other people.. not to mention he's pretty animated as it is to begin with.

Karamatsu slams down his hand mirror (see how busy he was) and points a finger at Aoba. ]}

The cutest thing.. I have ever seen in this lifetime... ah! I am looking at it.. right now!!
_{[ A beat, and then he points to his mirror. See what he did there. ]}

Heh. I am blessed with a cute face to admire every morning when I look at myself. I will feast my eyes on the.. second cutest thing I have seen in this lifetime!! Tell me, Aoba-kun.. I can hardly wait!

...

[ This is not the first time Aoba has reflected on the reasons why this man, out of everyone in Quarantine, is his best friend. This guy, who literally shares the same face as five other dudes, seems to be frequently caught admiring his reflection.

Aoba stares at him for a moment, eyes falling to the mirror and then back again before he just gives up with a shake of his head. ]

[ That high energy excitement returns in full force, however, thrilled that he gets to show him his closest companion from home. He hoists up a dark blue ball of fluff. ]

This is my Allmate, Ren! Say hi, Ren!

[ Ren's tail starts wagging briefly. It's tongue is just poking out in a permanent blep. A startlingly deep voice emits from the animal. ]

Hello.

_{[ Karamatsu is accustomed to talking animals ever since the whole Nyanko thing, but he still looks surprised when a voice comes out of Ren. Sadly enough, Karamatsu is instantly jealous of how low his voice is.. why couldn't his voice be as low as that?
Another thing he's jealous of: Allmate. That sounds a bit like soulmate doesn't it? But Karamatsu doesn't understand, as usual, so he just puts on a big grin and claps his hands together. ]}

Whao, amazing! Heh, you could make a lot of money off of him by letting him perform his own solo concert!
_{[ do you see where the Matsunos' thoughts instantly go to? ]}

I wouldn't use Ren to make money, that's weird.

[ You're weird. At least Aoba leaves that part out, because it's also painfully obvious... and also he's hardly normal himself so, let's just leave that alone. ]

He's my very important companion, we look out for each other. That's why -- eh?

[ Ren seems to be lost in thought, however, and Aoba notices this only when his tail stops wagging. ]

What is it, Ren?

[ Ren seems to be staring directly into the feed, right at Karamatsu. ]

...

What kind of performance?

_{[ Karamatsu disregards everything Aoba is nattering about (nice) to put his full attention on Ren. ]}

Ah! Singing! I see there... you do not have the proper hands to play an instrument.. but you could sing and I could play I suppose!

[ Even Aoba has forgotten what he was rambling about as he stares silently at his Allmate showing a rare display of interest. ]

Impossible. I do not know how to sing.

Ah, that is okay! Just believe with all of your heart.. and I'm certain you can do it. I have faith in you.
Aoba-kun can sing very well.. his voice.. it is very angelic! I'm sure he can show you how to sing as well.

_{[ embarrassing????? ]}

[ Ren looks puzzled. ]

But... Aoba does not know how to sing eithe--

[ Suddenly, Aoba raises his voice and interrupts. ]

Aaaanyway! We don't need to mention my singing. Ever. [ He doesn't need to be reminded that he did that, especially when his embarrassment is only heightened by over-the-top compliments. ]

Hey, Kara-kun... are you busy?

_{[ Karamatsu loved Aoba's singing! Why wouldn't Aoba want to talk about this? If Karamatsu had the kind of voice that Aoba has, that's all he would want to talk about, honestly. ]}

My aching soul has been yearning to be in your presence, Aoba-kun. Non, non, I am simply waiting here.. waiting for you to come to me.
_{[ uh.... ]}

...

[ UH... ]

[ That phrasing... OKAY this is fine, whatever. Aoba is just going to translate Karamatsuese into layman's terms and say that he's cleared for an invitation. ]

G-good, I think. I'm not working today, so I wanted to see if you'd like to hang out?

I think it might rain so maybe something indoors...

_{[ Almost instantly, he's jumping all over this. Where did this excitement come from? ]}
H-Hang out!? HANG OUT!!
Ah, my sacred treasure, you should come and see.. my new housing! It is practically... a mansion!

_{[ not really. ]}

J-just what did you think I meant... you weirdo...

[ W-what is this... 'Sacred treasure' nonsense?! Anyway, he's going to shove it away along with a majority of weird-ass proclamations from Karamatsu, because Karamatsu is just that way... and he himself said he should always feel comfortable being himself around him so...

So he should take responsibility. ]

Your new housing? [ He knows what he means even before he says it. After all, NEETs, as it appears, are creatures of habit. Driven by making a quick buck, which isn't made by just hanging about at one's home catching up. Which makes him all the more curious about his move. ]

Did you recently move, Kara-kun?

Heh, we did! All three of us did. Ah, it is so spacious.. there are even two bedrooms!
_{[ it seems very large because there's only half of them here, after all. ]}

Aoba-kun, you must come and see it! It is perfect weather for your company!

[ All three. He assumes he means his brothers. Even though they're adults and don't seem to get along well, they're very close. It's kind of cute. ]

Two bedrooms... does that mean you share one of them?

[ Aoba turns his attention away to open his bag for Ren, who steps into it and falls asleep. ]

That must be hard. Even I have my own room.
