[ "Slow down!"

"You started doing all that already?"

"Who are you calling super stupid?"

All responses that, if it were a typical day, Ryoko probably would have responded with. Instead, she just politely smiles. ]


I'm fine, don't worry. I'm gonna get going now, okay?

I-Inaba! [Yuuto looks between Inaba and Ryoko in a panic,] Hang on! I’ll be right there-

Ryoko! [And he offers one of the containers. He’s brought her some of the chicken soup that he made for his new household.] Here. Instead of making dinner tonight, please relax and look after yourself? You’ve earned it!
loveedition: (→anime | heheh! sure thing!)

[ "You've earned it!"

...

A massively, bitter thought crosses her mind.

Yeah, right. ]


Mm, thanks. I'll catch you both later.

[ She accepts the chicken soup, bows her head and heads out. Waiting to be far, far removed from the room before she can let out a deep sigh. ]

[Her response is so detached. She doesn’t yell at him or deny the soup or ask him to rush her back to this important task of hers. Yuuto knows something is wrong, but…

He returns to Inaba and sits in the side of the bed, reaching out to check her fever by touching her forehead.]


Can you eat, Inaba? I’ll heat up some soup for you?
spacialeyes: (03 A)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Okayyyy. [Though he senses that Inaba is annoyed, Yuuto chooses not to linger on it. Whatever happened between these two is something they probably need to come back to later... maybe over mimosas or something.

He stands again, but before kissing her feverish forehead.]


Soup, room service, cooling pad... What else can I get for you while I'm up?

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Alright. [Yuuto walks towards the kitchenette, calling over his shoulder,] How's your computer doing? Is everything there?

How's your girlfriend?
spacialeyes: (pic#15911317)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
I'd be happy that you're feeling energetic enough for that~.

[He checks the door and fetches the room service items, then gets to work in the kitchen. Fortunately there are some bowls and silverware, so he's able to serve her soup properly. While that heats in a microwave, Yuuto focuses on the ice pack.]

Do you need any help? I have a pretty good memory and my sense of time is on-point.
spacialeyes: (pic#16003655)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
I can do that, mm!

[Yuuto walks back with the ice pack in one hand and soup tray balanced in the other. He’ll get the pillows and such when she’s done eating.]

But first! Lunch~! Why don’t you eat and I’ll review what you have written so far?
spacialeyes: (pic#16011091)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Eh... Can I take a crack at the code while you're eating then?

[He needs to keep busy or he'll go insane, so an unsolvable code would be perfect.]
spacialeyes: (114b)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds fun! [Yuuto holds out his hand to accept her notes,] How's the soup? Okay?
spacialeyes: (pic#15923288)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Good. I brought some extra, so if we move you into a house tomorrow then you can keep some.

[Yuuto takes the notebook and opens its, briefly scanning over the numbers to search for indications that it's binary.]

What did you and Ryoko talk about?
spacialeyes: (pic#16262495)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, she did warn him that this code was layer. Yuuto is still scanning the binary for patterns as he speaks, but it's mostly to ground his thoughts. Otherwise he's going to get anxious for both of them.]

I see.

You're both alike in that way, aren't you? Pushing yourselves to the brink... Is it that you both don't know how to stop, I wonder, or that stopping is scary..? Sometimes it's harder to get moving after a break than it is to keep going, hm?
spacialeyes: (pic#16262495)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
I see. [Yuuto lowers the code for a moment, putting all of his focus on Inaba. Anxiety be damned.]

Inaba, do you know why Ryoko asks you to take it easy?
spacialeyes: (302)

[personal profile] spacialeyes 2023-05-05 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, he's pushing his answer anyway!]

When Ryoko asks you to take it easy, what she's really saying is probably more like... "I want to be with you for a long time, so I don't want you to get sick."

She isn't going to leave you. I think it's the opposite. She sees you working so hard and she's scared for you. Though! [He fully sets the notes down now,] I'm pretty bad at taking her advice myself... So maybe I don't have the right to talk.
