karamatsu girls /runs

I didn’t want this to get so far but.... get out omg XDDDDD Kuramochi and Ryou in Karamatsu’s clothes tho....

factorielle answered your question “Cute Kuraryou or Misawa prompts??”

ryousuke distracting kuramochi from a video game, kuramochi taking care of sick ryou-san, 'my boyfriend blushes more cutely than yours' competition between miyuki and ryousuke, miyuki falling asleep on eijun's lap...

FACTORIELLE: so he decides to Go For It on the day he hired Kasamatsu to give Aomine a lapdance? what could possibly go wrong

CROWKID: Yeah he's. An idiot

FACTORIELLE: so then Kasamatsu finds him in the kitchen, actually Competent At Cooking and also half naked

CROWKIDS: Yep!! And he's not wearing any makeup & he's in like. Simple loose sweatpants and he smiles when he sees kasamatsu and it's like. A hammerblow to his chest, the sudden Longing for this, for kise stripped down (physically & metaphorically both) and welcoming him, the. Perfect simple NORMALNESS of that

FACTORIELLE: despite the ridiculous house :')

CROWKIDS: Yeah the weirdness creeps back in when he sees just how many fancy cooking appliances kise has but STILL

CROWKIDS: Kise hands him coffee & what looks like a homemade biscuit & there's flour on his cheekbone & kasa's like "how are you--what--how early did you get up??"

ANYWAY

Kise smiles at him warm-eyed and goes "it's nearly 1 pm, sleeping beauty" and kasa chokes on his biscuit

Kasa settles down with his head in his hands and a vague, possibly-a-dream memory of kise's skin against his mouth (after? They fell asleep? And he can't ask oh god he definitely can't ask but HE woke up fully dressed so probably nothing--but kise. Was shirtless, hadn't been shirtless when he remembered falling asleep, why would he take his shirt OFF in the morning, it would be a lot easier to think if his head!!! Wasn't falling off!!!!)

FACTORIELLE: awww poor confused hungover boy

just enjoy your breakfast

think about naked skin later

even though it's RIGHT HERE

CROWKIDS: Yeah that's gonna b a problem. Esp when kise leans up against the counter next to him, angled & casual, hips canted & sweatpants. Low enough to make kasa want to DIE. And kise slides him eggs & bacon & toast and some kind of? Green? Rich person smoothie

And kasa focuses as hard as he can on Food and as little as possible on Skin

He. Might accidentally call kise an angel but it's forgivable OKAY

FACTORIELLE: of course. Kise is feeding him after a long night

there is no better term to describe him

CROWKIDS: Yeah ANYONE would. Anyone

FACTORIELLE: so kise's wide-eyed wonder when kasamatsu says it is completely uncalled for

CROWKIDS: Totally unwarranted. His blush--spreading down his chest a little--is completely ridiculous and not at all a thing kasamatsu wants to follow with his mouth.

Kise mutters, "it's just--breakfast" and turns away, hitching his sweatpants up on his hips a little (but not enough that they don't immediately fall back down)

FACTORIELLE: right, breakfast. eggs and bacon. NOT the curve of Kise's back

CROWKIDS: Kasamatsu remembers sliding his hand down that spine in the night, remembers the little noise he made, and drinks all of his coffee in one go. He insists (despite kise insisting it would be fine) on going home to shower & get ready for the party, though.

FACTORIELLE: HOW DO THEY EVEN KEEP THEIR HANDS OFF EACH OTHER

CROWKIDS: It's a god damn mystery

FACTORIELLE: well yes he needs to prepare properly

CROWKIDS: He also. Needs to shower somewhere where there is no chance he will be interrupted/overheard, for. ~~frustration reasons.

FACTORIELLE: ah yes. those. Kise could probably use some alone time as well

CROWKIDS: Oh he still gives aomine his best dance--hangover chased away by shower & food & advil & whatever was in that crazy rich guy smoothie--he just makes. Absolutely sure that kise knows it's For Him and not this fuckin asshole.

Ohh yes. Kise goes and flops down in his bed and just. Remembers. Bc. He. He woke up Very Early, kinda maybe still drunk & tangled entirely in a very heavy kasamatsu who sighed his name when he tried to untangle himself

And kise--froze, and stayed, and had his own freak out on a level with kasa's, and kasa kept!! Pulling him closer, nuzzled his nose & mouth into the joint of kise's shoulder & throat & just--left it there, breathing hot on his skin

And it is. Oh so hard not to think about what might have happened if kise had maneuvered his mouth just!! A little bit upward & a little bit over, met his lips with his own, kissed kasamatsu awake without pulling their bodies apart at all because, god, it had been so long since he'd felt so--enveloped by someone

FACTORIELLE: but since he was a good person and did not actually do it he should get to think about it at least

like why resist, when he's alone at home and will soon have to get back on his feet and prepare for bachelor party #3

CROWKIDS: Oh yeah. He feels guilty abt it. And it makes. Kasa staring him down when dancing for aomine sO much worse. But he thinks abt it for sure

FACTORIELLE: but he doesn't feel so bad that he doesn't stare right back hmmm

CROWKIDS: Ohh yes his eyes are Glued. Not least bc kasa literally IS dancing better than he has lately bc he gets kinda comfortable at kise's--just does his stuff, whatever, but now he has!! A lot of pent up Energy & Emotion & Frustration

After aomine's like "if you'd made any eye contact that might've been the best lapdance i'd ever gotten"

FACTORIELLE: AND KASAMATSU CARES SO LITTLE. and here Aomine was trying to give him a compliment. kinda

CROWKIDS: Afterward kise finds him & goes "he's hot huh" & kasa's like "who" & kise rolls his eyes bc like. Pls. And goes "aominecchi," and kasa's like "eh, you can do better" and kise's very !!!

FACTORIELLE: "so what type of 'better' do you have in mind for me?"

CROWKIDS: Kasa spends a minute pretending that he doesn't know what kise means. Pointing out various people at the party that kise could date

FACTORIELLE: WHAT. KASAMATSU NO

CROWKIDS: Including himuro ("you were AT his stag party!") & reo ("seriously") & momoi ("KASAMATSU.")

And when kise knees him in the knee so he'll look at him and goes "stop," he stops, swallowing. Bc he was joking--they were joking, it was a fun joke---but there's something really serious in kise's eyes.

"I don't want to use you," kise says, and kasa stares at him bc. What.

"I have been--so far i've used you for emotional support, physical comfort, as a distraction and to make other people jealous. I've taken advantage of your kindness & your patience."

"And i don't--want to keep doing so. But. I have a last favor to ask, and i'm not asking you this as your client, or customer, it has absolutely no bearing on our continued--anything, business. Dealings. But." He takes a breath. "I need a date. For the ceremony tomorrow."

FACTORIELLE: KISE. KISE DO YOU NOT REALIZE THE TERRIBLE WAYS THIS COULD BE MISUNDERSTOOD

CROWKIDS:

Kasa opens his mouth & kise winces at him. "I know, you don't. Date clients. But it doesn't have to go any further than tomorrow, we can. Walk away after that but. You've been. Amazing, for all of this, and." He bites his lip. "I don't. Want to walk away yet."

Kasa stares at him for a long time, and then he goes "no," downs his drink, coughs, says "i was serious abt momoi, take her" and walks away.

FACTORIELLE: what. WHAT. NO

CROWKIDS: Bc he is!! Not Getting Into This, he is not going to listen to kise blithely admit to using him (as a distraction. As PHYSICAL COMFORT, god, thank god he hadn't done anything last night or this morning if that's what it would have been) and then agree to attend the wedding ceremony where two people kise still obviously loved and wanted married someone else, he's not!! Going to accept front-row passes to that masochistic show he is Not Dealing With This

He tells himself he'll call kise the day after, just. Make sure he's okay. Be. Friends.

He stares at the sky as the party winds down behind him, trying to convince himself to leave.

People filter out past him, and he glances at them, but he doesn't move until momoi steps up next to him.

FACTORIELLE: it is good sensible reasoning but still T_T

CROWKIDS: They've spoken a couple times & he likes her a lot--likes the way she cares abt kise, seems to have his back.

He gives her a nod. She raises her eyebrows at him. "You wanna tell me why ki-chan vanished when you left & hasn't been seen since? Not like him to not say goodbye."

Kasa blinks at her bc. what? Kise would never---he's the Perfect Host, right down to the ridiculous breakfast that morning.

"He didn't talk to you?" He asks. "Ask you to the ceremony tomorrow?"

She blinks at him. "No," she said, "i'm part of the groom's party, i'm already going?"

FACTORIELLE: 'the groom' like there aren't three of them. but anyway

CROWKIDS: Yeah lol. But if course aomine refers to himself as The Groom

FACTORIELLE: OF COURSE HE DOES. Tetsu, Kagami, and The Groom.

CROWKIDS: Kasa stares at the ground for a minute & momoi touches his arm like "anyway i'll leave you to it" & kasa's like "what" & momoi's like "don't you two usually" & kasa's like "yeah but i wasn't" & momoi's like "oh i assumed that's why you were waiting out here" & kasa's like "no" & momoi's like "so why....are you waiting out here"

And kasa's like shit why AM i waiting out here

FACTORIELLE: just waiting for the void to swallow him probably

CROWKIDS: & the only thing that comes to him is "for kise to come after me" and that's.

He turns around & goes back inside.

Kise's in his bedroom, and that's! Weird enough, that he even knows how to find that.

He's lying on his back, staring at his ceiling.  There's a half-empty bottle of whiskey on the night stand, but when kise sits up to look at him he seems sober enough.

He sees kasa glance at the bottle & smiles a weird hollow kind of smile. Kasa's never seen his mask so askew. "I thought it'd be fun to drown my sorrows," kise said dryly, "but i took a couple sips & felt absolutely horrible, i think my body still hates me for last night."

Kasa cracks his neck. "Mine, too," he admits.

Kise shakes his head. "Wouldn't know it to watch you dance."

Kasa smiles at him, feels it be as hollow as kise's own. "I'm a professional."

Kise takes a breath. Nods. Stares at his hands in his lap.

Kasa comes over to sit by him. "Listen," he says, "i thought i'd at least--qualify my no."

Kise's mouth twists. "I appreciate the thought, but being reminded again that you don't date clients is just a twist of the kn--"

"That's not why," kasa interrupts, too loud.

Kise blinks at him. "What?"

Kasa shakes his head. "If i thought--if you asked me out, like, actually asked ME out, not bc i'm convenient & i do you favors & i already think you're hot & one of the best people i've ever met but bc you wanted to Date Me--i wouldn't give a fuck about my rule. My rule is for gross, 40 - something men who want to get my number so they can stick their hand down my pants uninterruped."

Kise stares at him. "I've been trying to ask you out for WEEKS."

Kasa blinks at him. "What? No you haven't."

Kise scrambles to his knees. "Yes, i have! Basically every time i open my mouth!"

"You weren't--you weren't serious, though, that wasn't---"

FACTORIELLE: oh yes good argue about the definition of "asking someone out" that is clearly the best use of your time right now. BOYS.

CROWKIDS: "I was," kise says quietly. "I was serious”

Kasa's like "what" & kise's like "so if that speech earlier was just to make me feel better i should know right now" and kasa's like "i--no, it. Wasn't, i mean that"

Kise shifts a little closer and kasa swallows hard. "But--kise, i don't. I don't do casual dating, like. I said i haven't had many boyfriends because i haven't--felt things for a lot of people, and i'm not interested unless it's more than just.

And kise looks at him, head to one side, eyes unreadable. "And you don't feel things for me," he said, voice measured. His mouth curled. "Foolish of me to think that YOU'D say something to make me feel better, I forgot about your conversational roundhouse kicks."

FACTORIELLE: i think maybe a physical roundhouse kick might be in order. KISE. NO.

CROWKIDS: Kasa stares at him. "I didn’t. Say that." He licks his lips. "I just mean i-if we're going to do this. You need to know what you're getting into."

He grimaces a little. "Also--y'know. It does take two."

FACTORIELLE: CONFESSION TIME! or is this the time Aomine picks to come in and say he's going home now gotta have his beauty sleep for the Big Day

CROWKIDS: Oh god even i am not that cruel, i think aomine left slightly before momoi & she caught up with him to make sure he didn't die accidentally the night before his wedding

Kise's just. Staring at him, so he coughs and continues, because fuck it, "if i didn't feel stuff i would've said yes, earlier."

Kise reaches out to him,  little directionless, and kasa takes his hand in his because it's--safest. "What," kise says, "i don't. Think i understand."

Kasa sighs. "You want me there because you don't want to attend kuroko & aomjne's wedding alone. That's totally understandable, but it also. I could be anyone. You don't want me there because you want ME there, you know?"

Kise starts to object, but kasa--daring, echoing his drunken self--presses his fingers to his lips, and kise stops talking, startled. "That's not. The kind of first date i want with you."

Kise swallows, and before Kasamatsu can remove his fingers he kisses them, lightly. Kasamatsu feels himself go red, and he takes his hand back slowly, not sure if he should.

"So," says Kise a little thickly, "what kind of first date would you want?"

Kasamatsu rolls his eyes. "Kise—"

"Seriously," says Kise, and shifts closer again, something—flirtatious in his movements, something joyful but held back, like he's resisting something. "What about this—we get really drunk, don't make out despite ourselves, and then have excellent breakfast together." He pauses, smirk curling up the corner of his mouth. "Or! We could attend a really fancy party, and your friends could dance, and I could introduce you to MY friends."

Kasamatsu's mouth is dry but he still manages to frown. "Kise—"

"Or," says kise, tapping his lower lip, where Kasamatsu's fingers had been only a moment before, "maybe we could go shopping? maybe you could give me a hard time about my past love life, how does that sound."

Kasamatsu ran a hand through his hair, unable to stop. looking at the way kise was moving his body, little shimmying shifting movements like he can't sit still. "Kise," he says again, a little weakly, "I—I'm being serious—"

"So am I," Kise says, and reaches for him, wraps a hand around the back of his neck and tugs him down, 'I want to date you exactly as we have been, I want to have BEEN dating you, I want you to come to the ceremony tomorrow as my boyfriend not because I want a boyfriend but because I want YOU."

His face is. So close and his eyes are so sincere and Kasamatsu licks his lips, has a moment of pure weightlessness when Kise's lips part and his eyes zero in on his mouth.

"Kise," he says, differently, though he doesn't mean to—hears it come out embarrassingly low, embarrassingly longing, and then kise is kissing him hard, both his hands on Kasa's jaw, his mouth hot and insistent.

Kasa—gives in, lets himself sink forward, lets himself kiss back as  good as he gets. He fists a hand in kise's shirt, keeping him close, and kise kisses and kisses and kisses him, short, hard kisses like he's punctuating his point. they make kasa absolutely breathless in a matter of second, because every time he tries to breathe kise noses back in, and if he doesn't kasa finds himself completing the kiss first, kise's mouth soft against his, their noses brushing

when he can take a breath it's always of kise's air, recycled through two pairs of lungs, so he's dizzy with it, tipsy anyway and so—deliriously tired from these three mad days of drunken, dancing tension that was somehow also the easiest thing he's ever had to do.

he presses forward, tipping kise back, loses track of his mouth and just presses his face into the joint of his neck and shoulder to steady himself, to think, to figure out the words he should probably be saying

Kise runs a hand up his back and into his hair. "do you remember lying like this last night?" he asks, his voice as breathless as kasa feels, and kasamatsu squeezes his eyes closed. "no," he says, horribly embarrassed for some reason that he can't really put into words, considering. everything.

kise laughs softly, and kasamatsu discovers that kise laughing softly directly in his ear is. probably the hottest thing that has ever happened to him.

he groans and buries his face against kise's skin, and kise's hand tightens in his hair.

"Hey," Kise says. "Kasamatsu."

"Mm," says Kasamatsu, because it's about all he can manage.

"Do you want to be my boyfriend?"

Kasamatsu pulls back so he can look at kise's face. He looks—happy. hopeful. and somehow—incomprehensibly—not quite SURE, in a way that Kasamatsu thinks very few people ever see him. it makes him feel. delicate. honored.

"Yes," he says, and brushes kise's hair out of his eyes. "Idiot."

annnnd that's about. finis.

<3

+ 

And then kasamatsu shows up at the first party nervous &!! Kise is always the Perfect Friendly Host but he is Not always warm-eyed and gentle, he is not always smiling like that, and kasa thinks maybe he got it wrong, bc aomine isn't here, he knows what aomine looks like, and it's not this blue-haired boy with the impassive face who gives kise the tiniest of smiles when kise runs a hand across his shoulders

FACTORIELLE: do they talk about it at any point

CROWKIDS: I think the next day, when they're shopping. I think kasa calls kise the next morning like "i refuse to show up in my only suit two nights in a row & i refuse to look like a schlub in front of your....friends" and it's uncharitable but!!! He's pissed & jealous & hating himself for it bc he expected (idiot!!) to have kise's attention on him for the night but kise was of course being a Host and a Host with a heart so clearly broken that kasa wanted to punch that stupid pretty boy's face in, even tho he seemed like a perfectly nice quiet dude, and. Kise probably only invited him on a whim anyway but he'd BOUGHT IN now so "you're taking me clothes shopping"

CROWKIDS: And while they're out he's like "so is kuroko not famous? Is that why he's not your favorite rumor? Or is it bc you're not over him"

FACTORIELLE: HARSH

CROWKIDS: Yeah kise's like "wow you don't pull your punches" and kasa's like "you don't hire me for my sensitivity you hire me for my mediocre dance moves"

CROWKIDS: And kise's like "don't slander yourself. Also i haven't hired you at all, currently, really you've hired ME as fashion consultant"

And he's pauses, and looks thoughtful, and says "which makes ypu MY client...i don't think my policies would be as strict as yours" and in the version of this where they figure their shit out sooner (never the version i'm gonna go with lbr) he tips kasa's face to his & kisses him

But in my preferred version, the slow burn version, Kasa sees right through his evasion & just. Waits

FACTORIELLE: he sees through the evasion but not the genuine flirting. OF COURSE. but I suppose in the long run it's better for Kise to talk about his Sad with someone who's not part of Miracle Agency

CROWKIDS: And kise's finally like "kurokocchi's. Kind of famous. But with kagami in the picture no one is ever gonna think WE'RE dating”. Kasa's like "i assume kagami's the other one he's marrying?" And kise's like "mmhm". And kasa's like "...you should have told me. Warned me". And kise's like "should i? Why?”

"So i could've. I don't know! Helped you out, talked you up, been there. Better. That's what friends do, idiot". And kise's like "oh, we're friends? I thought i was your client”. and kasa's like "i thought, today, i was YOUR client"

and then somehow they're back in that. Flirty space. And kasa clears his throat like "so if i'm your client, does that mean you're paying? Like on those American makeover shows?"

kise's like ".....wouldn't that be more of a sugar daddy situation" & kasa's like "a what" bc i'm p sure that's not a japanese thing, at least not in those words (correct me if i'm wrong)

FACTORIELLE: (I know the concept exists, but not what the term is...)

CROWKIDS: Well he refers to it in the english terms, prob intentionally. And he's like "nevermind, nothing” and kasa's like "i was kidding anyway, i know you're obscenely rich but i'm not gonna make you do that”

Kise's like "i would, though” and kasa's like "don't be stupid” and kise's like "no really i want to do something to thank you for doing me this favor"

And kasa snorts like "listen even if it was a problem to attend exclusive parties for free & get drunk on your dollar & stare at the most beautiful people in the country all night, i'm not going to let you PAY ME to hang out with you"

And kise's internally like right bc i haven"t been paying you to hang out with me all year or anything

And kasa"s like "you're not in love with kagami too are you" and kise chuckles like "no" and kasa's like "cool great maybe i'll actually GET to hang out with you tonight then" and kise's like :) :) :) :) "you wanna hang out with me"

FACTORIELLE: I CAN ACTUALLY VISUALIZE THE SPARKLES. of course he wants to hang out with you, doofus

CROWKIDS: Kise is a DUMBASS

FACTORIELLE: WITH THE LOWEST SELF ESTEEM

CROWKIDS: Ahh god you reminded me of a different scene from this v fic which is like. Kasa hanging out with a coworker, who's picking him up from kise's house

And his coworker like looks at kise"s house & he's like "jesus this guy must have the biggest ego in the world" and kasa snorts like "yeah" and then he's like "well. No, actually" and his friend is like "?" and kasa's like

"He definitely...the whole world thinks he's hot and talented, and he knows he's hot and talented" and the friend is like " yeah like i said" and kasa's like "no no"

"He knows he's hot and talented and that everyone thinks he's and talented like. The same way you know you have black hair, it's this truth that has no bearing at all on who he is or whether anyone likes him. He never thinks it makes him better than anyone, and he spends so much of his time and effort making himself Good in other ways, like, he never." He goes quiet a second and then he's like "it"s as if he takes no responsibility for his own reputation and success, even though he must work so hard for it"

His friend is like "....dude"

FACTORIELLE: "you have it so bad"

CROWKIDS: Kasa hits him upside the head like I DO NOT

FACTORIELLE: "so I'm picking you up two hours after the end of your set because what, you got lost on your way out?"

CROWKIDS: "....i was helping him clean up." "You were---you're not even SLEEPING with the guy??"

"He's a client!!" "So?? Charge him a little more, then you get the best of both worlds"

FACTORIELLE: LITERALLY THE LAST THING KASAMATSU WANTS TO DO

CROWKIDS: Yuuuup. He's like "..that's not what i want" and his friend is like "wow you are FUCKED"

FACTORIELLE: good assessment of the situation, Kasamatsu's Friend.

CROWKIDS: Yeah he's not wrong. Anyway!! At kagami's stag party kise DOES pay much more attention to him, and so does. Everybody else. Bc like goddamn he cleans up nice. Kise. Gets a lil drunker than he means to, bc he keeps having to stop himself from telling his friends to back off

At one point he actually drags kasamatsu away (while everyone goes 👀👀👀👀👀) to hide in the kitchen & kasa's like "kise wtf" and kise's like "don't you just get tired, sometimes, of all the people, and everybody looking at you" and kasa's like "..."

"Two things: i'm a performer, if everybody's not looking at me i'm doing a bad job. Second, tonight is the first time ever that quote-unquote everyone has looked at me when i am NOT performing, and it was kind of nice"

He pokes kise in the side bc kise is very obviously NOT looking at him. "Stop projecting."

FACTORIELLE: awwww poor drunk kise

CROWKIDS: And kise still isn't!! Looking at him and he's like "yeah sorry i. Go back to the party, you were having fun" and kasamatsu settles beside him with a sigh like "don't be an idiot, why would i want to be out there without you"

And kise laughs, a little, like. "You really have to stop saying stuff like that, you're gonna give me the wrong idea"

And kasa, bc he is a masochist and also kind of drunk, slings an arm over kise's shoulders and pulls him against his side & stares at the ceiling

Kise's like !!!!!

And kasa's like "i think it's incredibly selfless of you to even throw these party, if two people i had a complicated history with were marrying some other dude i would set fire to all their pictures nor spend thousands of dollars on a triple classy-ass stag party"

And kise's like "kasamatsu" and kasa's like "no seriously" and kise's like "hhhh please go back to my party i'm good i'm fine" bc he!!!! Cannot Take This

Like kasa 1. Initiating touch 2. While in a gorgeous suit 3. And complimenting him sincerely and also sympathizing

Alone in the kitchen

FACTORIELLE: and doesn't date clients. but Kise is not a client right now. but--

CROWKIDS: True. But. He is also. Not flirting? He is being sincere and supportive and a Friend and!! Kise doesn't want to fuck that up he never! Gets that he never has Closeness w/o an expectation of sex

FACTORIELLE: true that is important too. but it's a really nice suit on a really good looking man and Kise is drunk and confused?

CROWKIDS: So he really. As much as he (really really really REALLY) wants to climb into his lap & kiss him until everyone else goes away, he straightens up instead & just goes "just--give me a minute, seriously" and kasa frowns at him but he goes

And he reenters the party to whistles & leers and probably earns some Cool points by flipping everybody off

Haizaki is there (he was def not invited but there he is) and he sidles up to kasa like "where'd you leave our lovely host, cleaning himself up in the bathroom" and kasa's like "who the fuck are you"

FACTORIELLE: ugh Haizaki. does he get punched I mean Aomine is not there but he should still get punched

CROWKIDS: Haizaki's like "oh i'm an old friend of ryouta's...." and kasa's like !!!

(I love that knb is so gay that i don't even have to hc the first name use)

FACTORIELLE: WHO IS THIS SLIMY DUDE EVEN, KASAMATSU HAS NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE

CROWKIDS: Literally!! Certainly kise's never talked abt him??? But he didn't talk abt kuroko???

FACTORIELLE: and *he* certainly has a possessive attitude. what is going on here

CROWKIDS: And haizaki is like "so where'd ryouta dig YOU up then, you're too pretty to be one of the basketball crowd.....but not pretty enough to be one of his model boytoys" (bc lbr haizaki is closeted as shit in canon)

FACTORIELLE: (ugh yeah)

CROWKIDS: And haizaki is leaning in close & being!! Gross & touchy & kasa is like "ew wtf wtf" & of course that's when kise comes out of the kitchen

FACTORIELLE: and notices Kasamatsu being super grossed out RIGHT?

CROWKIDS: Yeah there's never any thought that kasa might be into it there's just!! Disgust and outrage and terror bc haizaki still has so much shitty emotional power over him and like no you slimy motherfucker you do NOT get to touch the jaw of the dude whose jaw kise has been wanting to touch for!! Months you do not get to weird out & scare of this person kise Actually Cares About. And so he marches up and puts a hand on the small of kasa's back, sips his drink, says, "haizaki" as coldly as he possibly can.

(Kasa's surprised his drink doesn't freeze in his hand bc DAMN)

(Also this is the only time he's heard Kise refer to any of his friends w/o the "-cchi" ending)

Haizaki lick his lips like "ryouta"

Kise looks disgusted. "Get out of my party, please"

Haizaki shifts on his feet. "I was talking to your......friend, we were having a great time"

Kasa's like "no we fucking weren’t—kise, who is this guy"

And Haizaki does his Perfect Imitation voice to mockingly go "yeah, kise, who is this guy?" In his exact cadence

Which is!! Unnerving as fuck

FACTORIELLE: (is Kagami keeping an eye on the situation from across the room)

CROWKIDS: (Oh yes For Sure)

But someone else cuts in - a short redhead in a suit that looks like it cost more than kise's house and strange bright eyes who says, "haizaki, i believe our host requested that you leave." in a voice so full of suggestion and command that KASA wants to leave

Haizaki backs off immediately, eyes going a little wide, and turns away, cursing. Kise also goes wide-eyed, but totally differently "akashicchi! I wasn't sure you'd make it."

"Of course," akashi says, and then, softer, "i was sad to miss tetsuya's." and kise smiles at him like "were you?"

And kasa feels! Once again like he's outside of something looking in, and then kise grabs his hand (!!!!) and introduces him to akashi and it's. It feels Big even tho kasa has no idea who this is

FACTORIELLE: aaahhhh. how does he introduce him

CROWKIDS: He's like "kasamatsu this is akashicchi, akashicchi this is my--friend kasamatsu" and kasa will be replaying that little hitched pause for the rest of his LIFE

FACTORIELLE: UWAAAAHHH also he introduced Akashi first, that makes Kasamatsu the More Important Person *flails around*. like I'm not sure if Kasamatsu even notices but Akashi CERTAINLY DOES

CROWKIDS: Yeah kasa Does Not but akashi raises an eyebrow like "wonderful to meet you", and kise!! Is a little flushed and tugs kasa over to get another drink before he lets go of his hand

FACTORIELLE: aaaahhhhhh. how does Kasamatsu even drag himself away that night aaahhh

CROWKIDS: Hh maybe he?? Doesn't?? The party goes on a long time & kise is Very Drunk by the end & kasa is. Definitely almost as bad. And he COULD call his friend to pick him up but it's late as hell & he. Doesn't want to leave

And kise is kind of. Staring in dismay at the Mess of his house & kasa briefly considers trying to clean up but his eyes aren't even focusing properly and he. Just.

FACTORIELLE: THAT SEEMS LIKE A GOOD PLAN there's a lot of space after all

CROWKIDS: He's like "so i've seen this room and i've seen your kitchen. Do you have..a bed" and kise's like. Laughing at him, which is fair bc that's a pretty stupid question but. He still thinks he should probably shut up so he reaches for kise's face & accidentally sticks the tips of his fingers in his mouth before managing to shush him properly

And kise's like "okay!!" against his hand & leads him stumblingly to his bedroom & flops down and kasa kind of stands there swaying

And he runs a hand over his face like "great good great now do you have...another one" and kise groans like "i would have to get up and show you & i physically cannot" & kasa's like "just tell me i'll find it" and kise's like "kasamatsu my house is HUUUUUUGE"

FACTORIELLE: "so what am I supposes to do, just stand here all night watching you sleep"

CROWKIDS: & kise flops out a hand like "ugh god just come here"

And kasa's like !!!!!!!!!

And kise's like "i said come HERE, no one is LISTENING to me tonight"

& so kasa wanders over like internally like 'any minute he's gonna realize what he's saying and tell me to back off and get out and i'm gonna ruin this bc i couldn't figure out how to say no bc he's so drunk and cute and oh god oh god'

And kise grabs his arm and pulls him down into the bed & squirms up against his chest & drapes kasa's arm over him before he lets go & sighs this like. Big, relieved sigh, eyes closed, his drunk-tired-stressed tension visibly draining away

And kasa's heart is!!!! Literally abt to batter its way out of his chest

FACTORIELLE: DOES HE GET ANY SLEEP

CROWKIDS: He doesn't think he will bc. Oh my god. Kise's eyelashes are so Long and his face is Right There & he's got one hand tangled in kasa's shirt so he can't!! Leave & god what is morning going to be like, will kise be pissed at him for not leaving or finding somewhere else to sleep or

But he's drunk & he's exhausted & kise's bed is incredibly comfortable

he kicks off his shoes & kise squirms a little closer & kasa runs a hand daringly down his spine & kise makes a tiny soft noise & kasa swallows, finds himself unconsciously mapping his breathing to kise's, unconsciously noticing the rise & fall of his side, and.

The next thing he knows he's awake & it's bright & his head is. Ohhhh god. His head is awful & kise is gone & this is. The worst morning ever in the history of time.

+

CROWKIDS: Also there was a bit i cut bc the conversation went a different way but it was like kasa worrying that he wouldn't be asked back bc the person the party was for was so stone-faced. And kise was gonna be like "no no himuro's just like that". Bc clearly they are model-friends. "I assume he makes different faces with his boyfriend...but hey, who knows"

FACTORIELLE: at the end of a long night that's the kind of conversation that ends up in impersonations. I got a mental image of Kasamatsu trying to do Himuro's orgasm face and now my brain hurts

CROWKIDS: Oh my GOD

FACTORIELLE: IT'S LATE AND HE'S TIRED AND GIDDY IT COULD TOTALLY HAPPEN

CROWKIDS: It truly could. Kise is both horrified and distracted bc now he's imagining kasa's own orgasm face. Also!! He then totally Stuns kasa by doing INCREDIBLE impressions of everyone at his party bc. It's kise

FACTORIELLE: yessss. and he captures everyone so well. all the little mannerisms that Kasamatsu didn't necessarily notice but seem obvious when Kise does them. Kasamatsu kind of wonders how Kise would impersonate him

CROWKIDS: Kasa goes from being like "this guy is gorgeous & really sweet & hardworking" to "ohhhh my god he's a genius wtf” So like depending!! On if they're drinking or not

(They probably are; there's leftover Fancy Punch & kise's too good a host to throw it away even tho he knows this is a bad idea), Kasa asks kise to impersonate him

And kise like plays it off & does a silly frowny one, and kasa kinda kicks at him with a toe like "hey no be serious”, and so kise. Does. And does by dancing.

Kasa's?? Dying, bc the motions are ones his hips Know, it's like kise's following tracks he laid down in his mind & it makes it worse to know what's coming. And kise stops after what is probably only like. Maybe a minute and a half tops but kasa's like "w. Well. my moves look good on you"

FACTORIELLE: (also this means Kise has been Watching him even though he seems to be busy being a Good Host all the time)

CROWKIDS: And kise flops down beside him like "your moves look good on YOU". Kasa's kind of grumbly like "i thought we had a deal that i was going to dance for YOU,  now what's the point of giving it as a gift you look better doing it anyway"

CROWKIDS: And kise's! Prob a little too forward bc Punch and Late and kasa is Complimenting him a lot. And he's like. Playing with his glass like "you could always give me something else"

FACTORIELLE: flirty! Kise!

CROWKIDS: And kasa's like !!!!!! Bc. Holy shit

FACTORIELLE: IS THIS STILL THE NIGHT HE OFFERED THE DANCE OR ANOTHER TIME

CROWKIDS: I think it's the next time. Bc kise was like "next time"

So he's had time to figure out who kise is, i.e. the guy whose face now appears on every billboard, including RIGHT outside his apt. And so like? Kise might be flirting but he's like. One of the biggest name models out there rn so there is no WAY he means anything by it

FACTORIELLE: noooo KASAMATSU STOP SHOOTING YOURSELF IN THE FOOT

CROWKIDS: So kasa's just like "what do you give the man who has everything"

And kise stares at him & then starts laughing, and then abruptly sobers up

And he's like "i think my favorite rumor about who i'm dating is one that pops up every six months or so," and kasa's like "wh" bc. What a subject change

And kise's like "ever since aominecchi came out as bi, really, and everyone stopped assuming he and momoicchi were going to get married in two weeks". And kasa's like "aomine...? The basketball star?" and kise just. Looks at him

FACTORIELLE: is he surprised that Kasamatsu knows about basketball or that he has to ask

CROWKIDS: That he has to ask

FACTORIELLE: kasamatsu is not up to date on his celebrity gossip

CROWKIDS: "It's my favorite one because when i was eighteen i would have given anything to have it be true, and sometimes even now," and he stops himself. "I don't want it anymore, actively, but it sounds nice. Having someone."

FACTORIELLE: oh kise no

CROWKIDS: Kise flips from flirty drunk to sad drunk a Lot. And very quickly

FACTORIELLE: you don't ask someone to be your boyfriend as a replacement for a lap dance COME ON

but sad Kise :( how does Kasamatsu handle that

yes i choose to believe that this terrible move was due to the Drinking

CROWKIDS: Kasa handles it the way kasa in any universe handles sad kise--he gets caught up in the Tragedy of it all for about five seconds and then he remembers who and what kise is and he makes a face and goes "poor baby"

FACTORIELLE: HAHAHA HOW MEAN. probably efficient though

CROWKIDS: And kise's like "what" and kasa's like "sorry that was rude BUT. let's be real here you are a famous model, you're rich as hell, and you're a genuinely good person. So maybe you have to spend a couple years getting sad and drunk with the entertainment but hell, it's only a matter of time before someone comes and sweeps you off your feet"

And kise blinks at him for a minute and then grins and goes "you wanna do this for a couple years?", RIGHT back into flirt mode and kasa's like "what? No, i--christ" and buries his face in his punch glass

FACTORIELLE: also how many people does Kise have to play matchmaker for so he can keep hiring Kasamatsu

CROWKIDS: Oh, the entire GoM. And also like. The next day kise &  momoi have a brunch date bc they always do after kise's parties so they can dish on all the drama. And kise is Real hungover. And momoi is like "ki-chan you were Not that drunk when i left last night what the hell happened"

And kise's like "....i think i gave my favorite stripper a lap dance and then told him to ask me out and he didn't"

Momoi’s like. Oh my god. But she's also like "you seem kind of happy about it" and kise's like "yeah he was still really nice to me, i think we're real friends now" and momoi's like "....Ki-chan how is this your life”

BUT. re: aomine.

I think he & kuroko & kagami have like a handfasting ceremony type deal

FACTORIELLE: (also she's seen how said stripper glances at ki-chan sometimes and SURE 'friends' could be a thing but that is definitely not all there is to it)

oohhhh i like that

CROWKIDS: Which of course gives kise the excuse to throw THREE stag parties

FACTORIELLE: all in the same week

CROWKIDS: (And yeah kasa starts noticing an incredibly beautiful pink-haired woman giving him Significant Glances). Momoi probably makes a "who matches the matchmaker" joke somewhere down the line

Anyway yeah kise calls kasa directly, which is like? Usually not a thing. But he sweet-talks kasa's boss into giving him his cell number bc he's such a good customer

And kasa's like "...hello?"

And kise's like "kasamatsu-kun, hello"

and kasa's like "ffffuck what the fuck"

"How the hell did you get my number"

"mean! That's mean"

"i'm just SURPRISED, that's not supposed to happen--"

"well if you don't want to talk to me--"

"I never SAID that, kise." & he. Drops the ending bc he is Frustrated & it's easier to be familiar when he can't see him & be reminded that he is So Famous

And kise's like "...good because i have a favor to ask. Three of my friends are getting married—“ "three?? All of a sudden, just spontaneously, three couples—“

"no, no, to each other"

"...oh. huh"

" yeah so i kind of? Am throwing three parties....back to back?" "Oh my god" "so i was wondering" "NO" "you don't have to dance at all of them!! I'd like you to dance at the last one but the first two i just want suggestions for your coworkers who are good, and also for you to maybe be there?"

FACTORIELLE: aaaaawwww. FINALLY A DATE. that is almost exactly the same as every other time they've spent time together

CROWKIDS: Kasamatsu stops looking for his keys like "you want me to be there? At your fancy model party."

"It'll mostly be a fancy pro sports party if that makes you feel better"

"It doesn't, that just means everyone has more muscle."

"You'll fit in better then!"

"No i won't, i'll look like a weedy sport player instead of an off-brand model."

"Kasamatsu please, would i have hired you six times in the last year if you were either weedy or off-brand"

"yes, because you're CRAZY."

"you're so mean over the phone!" 

"Because you're like a thousand times more annoying when i can't see how hot you are."

And then a short panicked pause, and then "why do you even want me there if i'm not gonna dance"

"Because i'm sad and alone and i have to get drunk with the entertainment for a few years before someone sweeps me off my feet"

But there's something off, in his voice, and kasa's like "kise." And kise's like "one of the people getting married, he's the one i mentioned. Aomine.”

And kasa's like "i thought you said you were over it" and kise's like "i am. but."

& kasa thinks abt his old boyfriends & crushes & pinches the bridge of his nose with a sigh & goes "yeah. Okay. What do i wear?"
