Guys' Night [OPEN]

WHO: Dudes, dude. Bring all your dudely Outsiders, bro.
WHAT: Man I sure wish I could tell you Cracking a cold one open with the boys
WHERE: The Onsen
WHEN: 4/11
WARNINGS: Alcohol, nudity, dad jokes... This'll be updated accordingly

[ A few days after the girls have had their fun (cause girls just wanna have fun), another blanket text sweeps over the Outsiders' inboxes. This time, it's from Kaito: and he is proposing a very original idea that all the guys should come by the hot springs in a few days' time. Gossip and bathing are optional, but an empty stomach is mandatory.

Several pictures of newly purchased smokers, grills, and even a fucking pizza oven can be seen at various points throughout the message. There are also mountains of stacked beer and soda cases. Kaito's apparently going to be cooking enough to feed the whole base, or so he purports.

Where did he get all the money for this? Whatever, it's free!

He also adds in no uncertain terms that if any girls try to show up and sneak a snack, he will send them home with a stern warning and a bottle of water.

If you take him up on the invitation, welcome! It's a spring cookout and Pitmaster Kaito Nagano is going to be serving up enough barbeque to temporarily turn the onsen area into a Texan territory within Japan. Seriously, there's gonna be a metric fuckton of food and booze, and the hot springs will be right there when you're ready to get hot and hungover.

There are absolutely no plans after food. Feel free to stick around and socialize, but you will not be publicly shamed for just yoinking a plate and dip setting. Probably.

Aside from the barbeque, there are some horseshoes and cornhole boards set up (google it, it's safe, this is not a bit it's just a funny name for an american game) for dudes to try their hand-eye coordination at after having one too many drinks.

If you're feeling particularly brave, Kaito's got an ice box full of artificial fish (all the meat's artificial, let's be real) that you can try to attract a feral cat with. Good luck. ]


(( ooc: hello yes i didn't want The Boys™ to feel left out so feel free to make top levels and just get some general cookout social time in with your boyos. make it as friendly or awkward or awkwardly friendly as possible. go nuts. get naked. cause a ruckus. [ insert toxic masculinity here ] ilu ♥ ))

[ the first question on his mind is... how long has he just been out here? his expression seems to falter momentarily. ]

Why aren't you going in? [ is his first question, obviously keen on derailing this, or keeping it separated from himself. does he actually believe he'll be successful at this, though... it's a mystery. ]

I don't want to.

[ a simple answer for a simple question. it was a good try, yuwon.

he's way too interested in that egg to let the subject go.
]

So, what's up with the egg?
yuwon: (pic#16921566)

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-16 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's a straightforward response back.

which, he can't exactly fault the man for. even if it is kind of inconvenient. he seems to fall silent at the question about his egg again. seeing no clear way to avoid the topic, he continues.
] It's mine. [ does that clarify anything??? ]

If you're going to ask what kind of egg it is, I have no idea.

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-21 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Why would I ask what kind of egg it is? It's clearly your egg, like you said.

[ the one that popped outta him, yk? eheh. ]

Do you know how long it'll take before it hatches?

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-21 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
[ while he can't clearly define the why, there's something about gojo's tone or suggestion he doesn't quite like. but, he also feels like nitpicking him is way more trouble than it's worth. ]

It's unclear. I had a better idea before as it would show the exact hatch rate. But, I get the feeling it's not likely to hatch here.

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-21 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Exact hatch rate...?

[ what a weird guy.

well, whatever.
] So, why did you bring it here then?

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-21 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ this probably does sound insane out of context, but yuwon didn't necessarily how he came off. that said, he gives a small shrug. ]

It reacted under a similar circumstance before. [ it's a loose response, as if he makes it a point to display that it didn't have much other meaning attributed to it. ] ... are you normally this interested?
rikugan: (pic#16726372)

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-21 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
No. [ he doesn't actually care about the egg. did he finally catch on? ] I'm only interested because it's yours.

[ anyway, ] Are you sure it ain't just dead?
yuwon: (pic#17021393)

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-21 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ damn,

there's definitely a brief pause as he stares at gojo. one second too long before he draws his gaze away.
] You're coming on strong.

[ but, at the dead part, he shakes his head. ] It wouldn't exude the same energy if it was dead. [ what energy exactly? it's hard to describe, but it was undeniable it gave off the same feel as an outer god. ] Can you not feel it?
rikugan: (pic#16726528)

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-21 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ he can, but like he said, he doesn't care about the egg.

he just wanted to provoke a reaction from him. since yuwon has given him something better to focus on though, he's gonna hone in on that comment instead.
]

I just know what I want. Is that a problem?
yuwon: (pic#16663327)

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-21 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
If I said yes, would that stop you?

[ despite his actual words, there's no actual bite behind them. it's as common as a remark he'd make about anything else. he also doesn't appear offended as much as he is clearly assessing the other man with his eyes.

but, his egg is here, and with that sudden realization, he seems to fix his gaze back it.
]
rikugan: (pic#16823237)

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-21 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmmmmmm. Probably...?

[ he follows his gaze down to the egg. are they not supposed to discuss these kinds of things in front of it? ]

But you're interested in me too, aren't you? [ rhetorical. he knows he is. ] Do you have someplace to be with your egg?
yuwon: (pic#17021407)

[personal profile] yuwon 2024-04-21 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
Then, yes. [ he says without missing a beat.

though, to which point was he agreeing to? all three? he doesn't clarify and simply leaves it up to the sorcerer's interpretation. though, in truth, both was probably correctly.

in truth, he thought there could be a chance the egg could react to a strong enough presence, but it appears not even that yielded any significant shift in the egg's behavior (or lack of it).
] ... where could I possibly go with it?

[ says yuwon who brought it to the hot springs... ]
rikugan: (pic#16726495)

[personal profile] rikugan 2024-04-28 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ SHRUGS

the sorcerer chooses to apply that 'yes' to yuwon being interested in him ofc
]

I'm assumin' back to your room. [ where else would he take that egg after the hot springs? the kitchen?? ]
