[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!

[nightchild]

[itsuki when meteion and kazunari call him suki-chan: :)
itsuki when jae-ha calls him suki: :/

the expression on itsuki's face is hilariously flat, like he's just finished a very unpleasant conversation??? wow.]

I'm not.

[he grabs buzen's hand and starts tugging him back towards the motorbike]

[hasteful]

[ . . . ?

oh no! he follows after immediately but tries to peer at itsuki's expression.]

Eh? Why? Did something happen?

Was someone rude to you while I was gone?

[BUZEN IS LIKE 'I NEED TO WIN A RACE BUT I CAN BEAT SOMEONE UP FIRST']

[nightchild]

[MORE LIKE SOMEONE WAS RUDE WHILE BUZEN WAS RIGHT THERE???]

[nightchild]

[but there's another announcement marking down the very little time they have before the race, so itsuki puts his absurd jealousy on hold for the moment,

he holds Buzen's helmet in his hands, leaning in to give him a quick kiss]

Hmm... I'll tell you after you win, so you have to come to me as soon as the race ends, okay?

[he'll just gently smooths out buzen's hair with his hands, and then put the helmet on him,]

[hasteful]

Mm.... Okay.

[he lets the helmet go on him, but reaches out to take both of itsuki's hands in his, giving them a squeeze.]

If anyone bothers you, remember their face and I'll deal with it when I'm back. It won't take long. Promise.

I'll win back everything we need to spend the night wherever you want.

[for their deito to last even longer. but he'll let his hands slip from itsuki's after just so that he can bring the bike over to the starting line, blood already pumping for a chance to prove in yet another capacity that he's the fastest.]

[nightchild]

[it's a promise itsuki trusts in, if it was actually a situation where someone bothered him? he can't say 'beat jae-ha's ass because he was nice to you and that activated my yandere'?

he can at least console himself with the image though, even as he looks at the sign for the race and realizes that the

finish line

is so far away

from the start line

since this is a RACE. itsuki like i will trust buzen to come back to me? vs i should be there to see him so he isn't alone with jae-ha who buzen apparently really likes. WHAT DOES HE DO, WHERE DOES HE GO COTTON EYE JOE?? he reaches for his wallet and belatedly realizes that buzen has it, NOW HE CAN'T EVEN GET AN UBER??? HELP

he tries to tamp down the pure anxiety of leaving buzen defenseless in the face of perversion, and waves at buzen instead until the race starts so he can run around helplessly and i guess WAIT UNTIL BUZEN? COMES BACK?? HE CAN'T JUST WALK THERE HE MIGHT MISS HIM??? OH NO THIS SIS THE WORST]

[hasteful]

[i think the worst thing about this is that jae-ha is an m so getting beat up would actually be very sexy to him

imagine thinking you can uber to the finish line and be there before buzen wins the race. anyway buzen will catch itsuki waving at him and wave back!! he will also blow a kissy, but since that's such a vague gesture it just makes other people swoon too because he's boyfriend material. he's gonna be mistaken for a flirt, help.

up until the race actually starts - and off he goes! this is a rental bike, and yet buzen seems to be so innately well-acquainted with it. he lets it fly across the road like it was always meant to do this, and he zips past most of the competition.

there's probably a televised program of the race airing on screens nearby - and it's truly jae-ha that gives buzen the greatest amount of trouble. they weave in and out together, cutting tight corners and taking big risks to head toward the finish line right up until there's a photo finish. if only winning by fractions of a second, buzen inches ahead and slides to winner's circle.

he accepts the fanfare and the applause at the finish line - but also he doesn't stay long? he declares so openly when asked:]

Victory lap! I have to go get my lover!

[HONEST. SO HONEST. there are disappointed sighs among viewers.

before he just slides the helmet back on and then will zoom right on back to where itsuki is waiting, because he is loyal, quick, and in love.]

[nightchild]

[HE'S ALSO A DRAGON SO HE'D BE ABLE TO KEEP UP WITH ROUGH SWORD SEX ITSUKI KEEPS ON LOSING EVERY DAY

there's a screen near the booth too that itsuki immediately camps out in front in, watching the race closely. not because he doesn't think buzen won't win (he meant it when he said he believed in buzen's victory) but because he wants to watch buzen win!! he wants to see him have fun doing what he's best at,

which means he catches that declaration too, and while everyone else sighs around him he only has the biggest smile on his face, because he's so very endeared, smug, and also in love.

he waits right where he'll be immediately visible as soon as buzen pulls into the lot, pushing past the other curious onlookers because sorry, that's his boyfriend?]

Buzen!

[waving!! imagine jae-ha just cutting in at the last second on his sexy dragon motorbike so funny, itsuki just eats a cloud of dust]

[hasteful]

[STOP THIS ASLKDHFASDLKFH

jae-ha probably stayed at the winner's circle because there's literally no reason for him not to.... he's not that interested in buzen, he really is just a slut for free i'm shaking. itsuki is performative but jae-ha really isn't.

which means that it's just buzen coming back to a skidding stop at the lot. he takes off his helmet again, grinning bright and pleased. people are still taking video and pictures because he's the new champion of the races? the way that he's just going to never appear at another race again so he'll just be a myth. hilarious.

he will still just hop off the bike then, heading over to itsuki and reaching out to catch his face with both hands and guide him closer to press their lips together in a kiss that tastes like victory.

when he pulls back, buzen is still radiating confidence, entirely in his element - getting to race by the sea, and then return to the person he loves]

So? Was that fast enough?

[nightchild]

[itsuki immediately loops his arms around buzen's waist even as he pulls back, loving and maybe just the slightest bit (a lot actually) proprietary. buzen can be on social media as long as everyone knows he's taken? he keeps one hand on the small of buzen's back, enjoying the feel of it]

The fastest.

[his expression mirrors buzen's joy, warm and fond of loving, just. gooey.]

Welcome back, Buzen. [another kwiss for the champion] And congratulations.

[hasteful]

[help itsuki let buzen out of his sight for 5 seconds and then he was getting hit on so time to make sure that never happens again

buzen is, ultimately, completely unaware and is just happy to be receiving affection... he laughs, bright and happy, as he lets his forehead rest against itsuki's as his own expression is very fond.]

Thanks - I'm happy to be back. We still have to collect the prize, but we should be able to have plenty for the rest of our date.

[nightchild]

[itsuki will try so hard but it will inevitably happen again because buzen is big everyone's boyfriend energy, this is good bc itsuki deserves to suffer]

I'll go with you.

[unless they can collect the prize at the booth, either way itsuki moves to put his helmet on, but not before bumping his forehead lightly against buzen's]

And I'll ask around to try and find a nice place we can stay tonight.

[their deito!!! are places near the beach expensive to stay at?? it doesn't matter because they'll find somewhere nice anyway bangs gavel]

[hasteful]

I'll leave it in your care, then.

[itsuki can deal with all the details! buzen just wanted to race! head empty. but he looks pleased when itsuki wears the helmet again, and then guides him back to the bike.]

Hold on tight - I wonder if I can beat my time again?

[DON'T JUST TRY TO GO EVEN FASTER WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND]

[nightchild]

[(ur voice) buzen would be a terrible wife

itsuki just takes it as a sign of buzen's incredible trust in him wow, he climbs on and links his arms around him,]

Racing against yourself this time? I wonder who would win...

[DON'T BAIT BUZEN INTO RACING AGAINST HIMSELF ON THE STREETS OF TOKYO]

[hasteful]

[yea he'd be a horrible wife he wouldn't help with organizing or housekeeping, he has no major talent for it

but he just laughs]

Let's find out!

[which is how buzen puts on his own helmet, revs the engine of the bike, and then absolutely just takes off down the same road again. faster, faster...!!]

[nightchild]

[DO ANY OF THE SWORDS??? I FEEL LIKE HE WOULD IF HE WAS ASKED????

this really is the victory lap wow, itsuki enjoys the entire ride there -- too content in the yan knowledge that buzen is his to really freak out over how fast they're going. he likes that buzen is a speed demon? also they haven't broken any laws YET so, all's well that ends well,

he'll hop off as soon as it's safe enough to,]

Is that where you have to pick up the prize?

[because itsuki will follow him. he's learned his lesson about WAITING for BUZEN at his BIKE,]

[hasteful]

[BUZEN WOULD DO ALL HIS CHORES IF ASKED but kuwa is good at gardening, kotegiri is good at attending, and other swords like horikawa are actually good at chores. kara is good at cooking. buzen has none of these skills he's really not meant to be a wife

anyway

buzen will also get off the bike, bouncing on his heels since he's still excited from going so Fast....]

Think so! I've never actually raced with humans before...

[SO HE'S JUST GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS]

[nightchild]

[KARA IS GOOD AT COOKING? WHY DOES THAT SHOCK ME SO MUCH

itsuki will head on over, but he'll hold buzen's hand first so he won't wander off. imagine itsuki couldn't pick up the prize money on buzen's behalf because no one saw his face while buzen was busy smooching him,

he's not exactly looking out for jae-ha so much as he's trying to make it clear that he's the person buzen ran off to pick up? yeah!]

How was it this time? Better than racing on the rainbow road?

[hasteful]

[ALWEKHGAWEG KARA DOES A LOT OF THE COOKING WHEN SHOKUDAIKIRI MITSUTADA IS THERE they tend to do it together.... mitsutada isn't in the myu citadel yet tho

but this is hilarious. itsuki really staking his claim while buzen is just following after, occasionally glancing around to look at the other motorcycles people are driving... they look fast....

also - ]

Oh, no way. Rainbow Road was so much fun. This was good and all, but I didn't get to launch into space...
