acting like a good person on camera

[thicc]

[ onscreen: an insufferable prick doing his best to be as amiable as he can be, wearing a suffocating red suit painful enough to spell "karmic retribution". totally forced upon, totally manipulated. death, in short. valentine's day his fucking ass. ]

Gooooooood afternoon! Welcome again to the weekly edition of Yumenosaki Time, with me, today's special host, Izumi Sena! [ pause for... pre-recorded APPLAUSE haha that rhymed ] — and oh, [ WINK ] do we have an exquisite treat for all of you! For us, by us: "Find Your Mate!"

[ a small pause to raise the paper; he doesn't actually know the rules and pairs verbatim, and it sure isn't his problem if the cameraman is frowning and rushing hand gestures. ]

... So you see, it's just me and a couple of our other idols here, right? Everyone in this room won't be participating, but behind that curtain over there [ camera zooms into a red curtain right across from them ] is the remaining sixteen, and they're gonna find each other while completely blind!

Now, they aren't blindfolded yet — they will be, and you guys better be playing close attention — but as soon as the signal rings, it's lights out and evacuate!

[ onscreen text: "AND THE PARTNERS ARE...?" ]

As for partners, I've got the list... [ SHUFFLING ] here. Make sure to listen carefully, because as soon as I finish, you all have ten seconds to look and touch your partner all you want before the alarm goes off. Got it? Another second to register that? Alright, I'll start.

this is where we fucking die

[ You know, he'd at least expected Subaru to stumble around a bit before coming at him - yes, he'd pretty much accepted his fate beforehand, seeing as Subaru never took his hands off him and he had to come to watch over his unit, as a responsible leader. What did he do? Memorize the building layout? Oh so he could do THAT but he never came to meet-ups on time? Oh... fuck you, Akehoshi.

Turn around, Hokuto thinks, before I kill you. ]

yes

[vineco]

[ And without a care in the world, Subaru kept on running forward, stopping every few moments to feel anything around him.

And finally, he sensed someone... annoyed.

He had found Hokke! As soon as he felt some fabric, he wrapped his arms around what he at least assumed to be his leader, and laughs. ]

"Hokke~ I-found-you!" he whispers rather loudly.

nuh-uh

[ Unavoidable in it's entirety, yet it still made the Trickstar leader have to use all his physical strength to hold back a groan. Prepared as he was, he had still hoped Subaru would take this event with some amount of seriousness - professionalism, even! Ah, but it was Subaru Akehoshi. He should've known. He could trust Mao, even Makoto - as nervous as he could be - but for Subaru, even if he had the skill, he still lacked the drive and professionalism the others held.

But that was something Hokuto had decided he'd personally fix. Train it out of him, like Subaru was a dog. After all, as leader, it was his job to do so. ]

Turn around. [ A whisper rushed urgently, laced with annoyance. ] Stop touching me, Akehoshi. What if I hadn't been me? Idiot. You're an idiot, Akehoshi. And shut up.
