Mikoto Mikoshiba

Hey! Mikoto here! I can't talk right now, but if you leave a message I'll try to get back to you. Especially if you happen to be a lovely lady. [Suddenly, muffled embarrassed noises can be heard in the background] W-why did I say that...

3/2, afternoon

[gnasher]

are you around the old neighborhood? i need a favour.

it's rin.

[duh.........]

[mikodere]

hey rin

yeah I can stop by the old neighborhood. what's up??

[gnasher]

can you check if i left my skateboard on the porch? i haven't been able to find it since the move into my new place.

1/2

[mikodere]

yeah sure I'll go check it out. I was planning on saying hi to my parents, anyway.
I'll get back to you in a few about it

2/2

[mikodere]

[About two hours later, Rin will finally get another response from Mikoto.]

got your skateboard, it was on the porch like you said
i'm heading back to the apartments. are you home for me to drop it off?
oh and my parents say hi to you btw.

Re: 2/2

[gnasher]

i'm still at the gym. you didn't have to get it -- i just wondered if it was there.

hey mikorin's parents.

[what's with doing him a solid like this... stop]

[mikodere]

i didn't mind, since I was there... minds well pick it up.

well let me know when you are done with the gym and I can stop by and drop it off

[CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP RIN.

It's not like you are his special friend or anything!!!]

[gnasher]

[ffff]

you just want to hang out at a college student's apartment, huh, so you can feel cool...

[special friends get special treatment]

[aka shitbickering]

[mikodere]

I have a cool apartment too. I don't need to be in yours to feel cool.

that's the last time I do you a favor

[HE SAYS THAT, but he will still totally do favors for Rin like the tsundere he is.

That is the best special treatment and he feels so loved because of it.]

[gnasher]

i just asked you to see if it was there! you're the one who turned it into a fetch quest.

[he could probably finish up quicker at the gym if he weren't avidly texting his special pal in this special way]

[mikodere]

you were the one who was like "I need a favor"
I went above and beyond for you!!

[It doesn't even dawn on him that he's the cause of his special friend's delayed gym trip because of all his special texting.

There's a five minute delay before he sends his next message.]

oh and my parents also said you and Chiyo need to visit them sometime

[gnasher]

eh??? what's with that???? don't push the guilt of not visiting your parents onto the matsuokas!

[gnasher]

i outlined the low-risk parameters of the favour unambiguously; going "above and beyond" those parameters was an individual choice that i can't be held accountable for. objection!

[mikodere]

I visit my parents plenty!!!!
I can understand why they miss Chiyo but for some strange reason they miss seeing you too

[gnasher]

they haven't seen me since i was in elementary school... your parents need hobbies.

[mikodere]

I can take a lot of things
but don't insult my parents!
they have lots of good hobbies!!

[gnasher]

i'm not insulting them. i'm just wondering why they'd even think of me.

[mikodere]

because they like you???
i mean i thought it was obvious that they liked you two a lot

[gnasher]

i'm not some little kid to coo over anymore.

[mikodere]

[Let's go ~ACE ATTORNEY~ style]

OBJECTION RIGHT BACK AT YOU
As your friend I think I deserve some kind of recognition for going out of my way to even check on it in the first place!

[Yup. He just admitted they were friends. What a tsun...]

[gnasher]

[!!!]

[shot thru the heart?? and you're to blame]

my house is right by your house and you were going home anyway! it's not like you were going home just for my sake! i wouldn't ask a friend to go that far out of their way, oi, don't make me out to be that inconsiderate kind of guy!

1/2

[mikodere]

[It's what he does best wink wonk]

well I'd go out my way for you anyway because you are one of my closests friends!!

[He was about ready to respond to the rest but then the weight of his own words hits him.

... He just stares at his phone with the most deadpan expression.]

2/2

[mikodere]

[HE WONDERS IF HE CAN GET AWAY WITH CHANGING THE SUBJECT]

so
uh

[Did he just type in uh like a moron???]

good luck at the gym

NO COMBO

[gnasher]

[a long.................]




[................ completely uninterrupted.................]







[silence.]

[mikodere]

[Hello darkness my old friend. And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains

Within the sound of silence.]

See you later!!!

[The silence was killing him, so he had to say SOMETHING. But oh god was he embarrassed. And he would be....

For all of eternity.]
