[hug... weh.... he hugs back...]

I still don't know why you do, but... I'm glad. I'm never letting you go.

[he's buzen's... he's buzen's stupid, needy, yan-adjacent boyfriend,]

[hasteful]

[he really is all those things.

and buzen just laughs, even as he turns his head to nuzzle against itsuki's cheek]

I haven't told you enough? Or are you just looking for more compliments?

[nightchild]

[itsuki huffs a little and presses a kiss against buzen's smiling mouth,]

I said I don't know why -- not that I don't believe you? ...If you give me more compliments then I'm just gonna stand here and be embarrassed again.

[he is genuinely so hot right now he's been blushing nonstop for most of this thread wow,]

C'mon, let's get you a motorbike.

[hasteful]

[itsuki is just blushy bottom hours....

but also buzen is easily distracted, his whole expression lighting up]

Oh! Yeah! Let's go...!!

[nightchild]

[blushy bottom 24/7

except for now, as he grabs Buzen's hand and heads to a rental place, that he ends up having to look at a map and ask directions for but it's okay because he's only a top when it comes to travel minutiae and being a malewife,

he raises his eyebrows when the owner tells him the price,]

-- That much just for a day?

[he can't tell if this is like -- average or too expensive. sometimes ur not familiar with future currency. there's a poster next to the booth that has buzen's favorite words on it like MOTORBIKE! AUTOMOBILE! RACE! and also the exact amount of money the owner just mentioned on the bottom, but itsuki hasn't seen it yet,]

[hasteful]

[itsuki is really out here thinking and planning things while buzen is just looking around, admiring......

which is why he catches the sight of the poster before he does, and it makes him grin.]

That's fine! We'll make it all back in no time.

[BUZEN IS JUST READY TO RISK IT ALL,]

[nightchild]

We will?

[??? BUZEN??? itsuki takes a moment to ??? before he also sees this poster, ah.]

Oh. I guess we will, huh?

[THE UTTER CONFIDENCE ITSUKI HAS IN BUZEN]

[hasteful]

[buzen just winks, entirely confident. he will goes to take out the wallet again and then go to make the exchange with the shopkeeper, getting additional details on when and where exactly the race is.

if they rush to the beach now, they should be able to make it.]

Let's get going, Suki! We'll go as fast as we can!

[and not obey traffic laws!]

[nightchild]

[PLEASE OBEY TRAFFIC LAWS

itsuki laughs, because he can't not at buzen's enthusiasm,]

Mm, okay. I believe in you. [the shop owner leads them to the bike and hands the keys over to buzen, and also helmets??? itsuki takes one -- did they even wear helmets back at the prism????

and holds the other out for buzen, is this gonna be another goggles situation]

[hasteful]

[hilariously no, buzen understands that being on a bike going at insane speeds probably means a helmet is a good idea. he just doesn't think sea water can hurt him!

so he'll take the helmet easily, waving goodbye to the store owner and saying his thanks again. then he'll guide the bike out to the front of the store, over to the street, and immediately get on. he looks every bit the part of a biker, this is his aesthetic.

he scoots up so that there's plenty of room for itsuki behind him.]

Ready to head out? Hold on tight. It'll be like we're racing Malik-san and Chi-chan all over again.

[nightchild]

[the bad thing about wearing a helmet is that itsuki can't press his face against buzen's shoulders..... he'll have to settle for wrapping his arms around him instead as he slides on behind him,]

Yeah? I'll be impressed if we meet anyone as determined as they were.

[manatsu combination was pretty powerful... though of course itsuki believes in buzen the most... he squeezes buzen's waist,]

Ready when you are.

[hasteful]

[manatsu just took me out

but! buzen just grins at that, he's very sure of himself too. he lets his hands run over the handles like he knows it like the back of his hand - for some reason, he does - and then he immediately sends them tearing off into the street.

the speed is intense, as is the way that buzen weaves through traffic purely because he doesn't want to slow down or wait. he doesn't outright run through any red lights, but there are a few close yellows.

this continues up until they get on the highway that leads them to the ocean and he all but burns the rubber on the motorcycle, pushing it to its very limits of speed as he sends them across the road as fast as possible. at least there's no times they're launched suddenly like on rainbow road?]

[nightchild]

[what about chilik

the speed really is intense, but itsuki enjoys the experience. it's familiar, even comforting in a way. he doesn't have buzen's affinity for speed, hasn't ever come close to matching it, which is why he's been happy to mostly observe from the sidelines. just watching buzen run on ahead and run back to him. he likes watching buzen run.

but he likes riding on a bike with him even more. this way, he can share some of that speed. he can stick close to buzen throughout the entire ride, and not have to wait patiently for him to come back instead. his hands grip tighter from where his arms are wrapped around buzen, and he presses even closer to him as they get onto the highway.

rainbow road had its charms, but itsuki likes the scenery now: the stores and buildings and concrete making way for the long stretch of boardwalk on their left, and then finally -- sand, and the distinct sound of waves.

he hasn't seen the beach since the one in the dream they shared, and itsuki marvels at the sight of it now. there's a parking lot further up ahead, and it seems more crowded than usual, thanks to the black and white flags snapping in the wind where a variety of motorbikes and cars stand idle.

once they slow down enough for buzen to hear him, itsuki flips the visor of his helmet up]

We really did make it in time.

[he says like there was ever a doubt???]

[hasteful]

[chilik i can handle

but! buzen will let them pull into the parking lot, bringing the motorcycle to a slow in one of the free spaces, pulling off his entire helmet and running a hand through his hair like he belongs on the front of a sports magazine. he glances over his shoulder back and itsuki and grins, confident and sure.]

Why wouldn't we have?

[he can't give itsuki a proper kiss like this but he'll kiss the tip of his nose before he drops the kickstand to the bike in one smooth motion and then swings his leg over to hop off.]

I'll get us all settled for the race.

[nightchild]

[im glad u caught up with AnY can't wait to see jae-ha now

pictured: buzen. itsuki takes off his helmet too, and his hair is loose since he pulled off his pin before putting it on earlier. me realizing that he could probably do the hair flip since his hair's long enough but he can't pull off the same level of casual sexy as buzen can so he will not,

instead he'll grab the lapel of buzen's biker jacket and pull him in for a proper kiss, a quick one since they're running out of time,]

Here, I'll hold onto your helmet.

[let him carry stuff as he waits!!!]

[hasteful]

[ALWKEHGAKLWEHGWEG i'm sure itsuki could manage some level of casual sexy

but buzen will go in easily for the kiss, leaving his helmet in itsuki's hands. he gives him a second kiss afterward in thanks before pulling away, grinning bright.]

Thanks. I'll be back.

[a simple little promise before he turns to head over to where the sign-ups for the races are. he easily gives the information and gets them all settled, and is told that the race will be starting soon!




but itsuki will actually get a little text on his phone first?]

THE CHAMPION OF THE RACES IS HERE
I'M GONNA MEET HIM
BE BACK SOON
😋💚💫🚀🥇

[nightchild]

[itsuki: oh no this is cute
itsuki after 5 min: i feel a chill in the air]

[nightchild]

[he hasn't been without buzen since the date started....... itsuki who is needy 24/7 decides to head into the crowd to see if he can find him, maybe he's just being yan for no reason? maybe buzen is on his way back?

itsuki: buzen... doko? :o]

[hasteful]

[itsuki will probably hear buzen before he actually sees him - there's the usual bright, amused laugh that manages to lift even over the small crowd that's gathered around one of the bikes. but to his credit he does seem to recognize that he's taking some time to return to itsuki so he's also saying - ]

That sounds fun! But there's someone I should get before I agree to anything - can you hold on a second?

[alttitude]

[the person he's speaking to is unfortunately tall, dark, and handsome. the grin spreads over his face slowly, and he inclines his head slightly toward buzen which causes his green ponytail to shift slightly over his shoulder.]

Mm, I'd rather hold onto you?

[the sentiment comes with a hand slipping to buzen's lower back. (do you know how weird it is to write one of my characters hitting on the other yaywon this is what i'm doing for you.) but jae-ha laughs low afterward, softly amused.]

Well, I'm not really one to restrict anyone's freedoms - so sure. I'll wait for you as long as it takes. ♥

[buzen, stupidly: 'It shouldn't take that long! :D']

[nightchild]

[this is so funny im losing my mind

itsuki is also losing his mind? he veers towards the sound of buzen's voice and -- he doesn't so much as stop as he does immediately slow down? at the sight? in front of his eyes? homewrecking?? in front of his salad???

jae-ha puts his hand on buzen's back and for a moment itsuki just sees red? this is different from sayaka -- this is an entirely different level of danger -- itsuki is a performative slut but that doesn't mean he can't identify a fellow ho on sight,

buzen's the fast one in this relationship but it's really scary how quick itsuki just nyooms for buzen and jae-ha, he only gets this fast when he senses a fellow slut ig]

Buzen.

[itsuki ANNOUNCES, HELLO HE EXISTS TOO, he's smiling but his eyes aren't laughing,]

So this is where you were.

[GETTING HIT ON]

[hasteful]

[oh!!

buzen turns when he sees itsuki coming and all but lights up, grinning automatically.]

Suki!! I was just going to get you. [him happy] This is Jae-san, the champion of the races!! Even if it's not for long.

[meanwhile jae-ha will reclaim his hand from where it was resting on buzen's back because like. he's not stupid. now he's just amused. that same hand will just wave his fingers in itsuki's direction. hi. :)

he probably doesn't help the situation at all when he just says: 'I didn't mean to steal him from you, but what can I say? I enjoy a man with confidence.']

[nightchild]

[HELPPP

jae-ha: :)
itsuki, internally shaking: :))))

he has to fight the urge to put his hand right where jae-ha's was, if only because we don't want to look more yan than we already look on main.]

Dunno if I'd call it stealing. [itsuki has a great poker face when he flat out lies] Makes sense to introduce yourself to a rival.

[speaking of

introducing yourself to a rival... does itsuki have to? when jae-ha clearly isn't?]

[alttitude]

Haha, I think we breezed by introductions pretty fast. You're an easy person to talk to, Zen. [buzen: thanks! :D] I was hoping we'd get to know each other even better....

[at this point he just thinks it's fun to mess with itsuki because jealousy is hilarious to see on other people when you're a free slut agent. but there is the announcement over the speakers that the race is about to start so they should get to their places!]

... well, I guess we can save that for later. Nice meeting you, Suki. Keep an eye on yours or I might start feeling a little greedy.

Catch me if you can, Zen.

[waves!! off to his bike he goes.... it has a dragon motif painted on it because of course it does]

[hasteful]

Don't tempt me, Jae-san!

[HE WAVES GOODBYE

and turns to itsuki!]

I'm glad people here are friendly!
