[they stayed in touch - one way or another. even if it was just from sasuke ferrying letters back and forth, or from asking the gods to set up an interdimensional cellular network so that they could call and chat. every now and then their visits back to the temple synced up, and those were the times that senri would immediately run to majima's arms like he really was coming home
but it's probably one evening that majima's phone rings, no more than two years after they all left the temple, and it's a call from senri
that's not odd
but what might be a little surprising is - ]
Hey Ogou-san, we picked a day for the wedding, but I wanted to triple-check that you could make it before we book it!
We've been engaged for a year, Sen-kun, ya don't have to keep callin' 'em "-san"...
[ he knows things were briefly rough between them... but there's still something that kind of bums majima out that two of the people he's closest to have some lingering awkwardness between them. ]
Work with me, Ogou-san. Even if it's just the ceremony to start, I can't wait until after we graduate to get married. We need the last push of followers to make sure we graduate at the top of our class.
Yep. He's amazing. His was to make sure that everyone could get to see whoever they wanted to see - gods, other participants....
[he's so fond, the fuck]
... but that means that as long as we have a chance to get our wishes to come true if we graduate at the top of our class, I'm going to do everything I can to win this time.
What makes ya think I got any expertise in the fancy jewelry field? —Hell, I don't even know a goddamn thing about what I'm supposed to be doin' for my own damn wedding!
C'mon, I think the wedding planning part is really fun and cute... Mizuki-san will probably be taking point on most of yours, right, but we can at least see what's out there so you're not lost as you go.
Then you definitely have to come to my Tokyo to hang out. Maybe we can grab some stuff from the future for you to bring back, too, if there's anything you miss.
I'm still offended that Kuzco-han didn't make a Switch for me to take home. After all I did for him the whole game!
[ here he takes on a mocking tone, clearly meant to emulate kuzco's voice. he specifically exaggerates the whininess. ]
"Thaaat's not exactly how my power's supposed to be used. I dunno, some mumbo jumbo about how me and the others aren't supposed to 'meddle in the affairs of your worlds if it wasn't in the constraints of your wish,' which I guess this counts as? So, y'know, fast forward through that lecture to get to the short answer—no can do, Majimjam, my man."
[ his impression is. scarily spot on. for a moment, it's possible to forget it's actually majima speaking. ]
Damn, not even an "Ogou-san, you're the greatest but please stop"? Tough crowd tonight...
[ he sighs, but it's clear that too is purposely overdramatic. his voice goes back to normal after that, though. ]
The only problem is I dunno if buyin' a normal one would do anythin'... s'why I was tryin' to ask Kuzco-han, 'cause then I coulda just asked for it to have unlimited battery or somethin'. As it is, I dunno if Osaka's powergrid of the 80s can handle future tech bein' plugged into a socket...
[ it's one of those times where majima's taking a quick trip over to senri's world for a few days in order to get some quality time with the technology he'd been introduced to back during the competition. when these happen, he always tells his staff he's taking "business trips," but mizuki, of course, knows the truth. he's so lucky they let him get away with stuff like this...!
today, he's lying down on one of senri and taka's couches, idly tapping at his phone. unsurprisingly, he does just fine fc'ing expert songs on bandori even with the lack of a second eye, but right now, he's taking it easy grinding for shards and coins by playing on lower difficulties. (so what if this is actually what i've been doing irl for the past week or so. shut up.)
easier songs means he can redirect some of his attention elsewhere while still racking up points; as he spams the "bushido!" sticker while waiting for his lobby to fill up, he casually glances over at wherever senri's sitting. ]
Who're ya hopin' for on the guaranteed SSR banner, Sen-kun?

[ like, taking a single look at the two of them together should be enough for anyone to come to that conclusion... he sighs in defeat. ]
Ugh. Ya know I can't say no to you when you're like this.
no subject
Do I know that? I guess....
[no, he totally knows that]
It'll be fun! Might as well give it a try, right? You'll learn something new at the end of the day.
no subject
Yeah, yeah... we don't got anythin' special comin' up at the club for a while, so Mizucchi prolly won't mind me takin' a day off to hang out with ya.
