Send me ♥ and I’ll write some positivity for a blog that I follow.

They’ve always been an all around sweet and approachable mun - their Joker is also fantastic as well.  I enjoy them a lot.

@theartistinari

A really great Yusuke - I always enjoy visiting their blog - it’s nice to see how much detail and care they put into their portrayal of him.

@littlemissidol

I think their Rise is pretty fantastic and I’ve really enjoyed talking about the dancing games and PQ2 with them.  They’re a very friendly mun and someone fun to talk with.

@needlepunk

I love seeing the differences in Ryuji and Kanji - they totally capture Kanji’s voice and his mannerisms and he feels absolutely spot on.  I love our threads together.

quick shoutout to needlepunk for playing an amazing kanji. I love seeing them on my dash and the mun is just super nice!!

It was a reassuring touch of affection, a show of how delighted he is to see Kanji grow and come into the person he is today. Or at least, that’s what Meteor had intended to show, but he still had yet to perfect the nuances of interacting properly with others and showing them amicability. As a result, his cordial attempt at warmth came out rather awkward, expressing how unused to physical contact he was with people. So it made the Warrior of Light rather conscious about whether he had made the blond feel tense or soothed from the display.

He didn’t have to wait long for a response as the younger male came up to him to gently respond in kind with a light pat on the ba----

          “Ugh...!”

---he grunted with a light stumble forward from the contact. He hadn’t expected Kanji to respond so forcefully enough to leave him slightly winded. He doubted even echo would have prepared him for that.

At least it shows the other’s improvement in some form if it was able to catch even him off guard. Scratching the back of his neck, he made a comment under his breath barely audible to the ear about how Kanji has definitely grown stronger.

Quickly, though, he brushed it aside. Food and a bath sounded good about now, especially after a long journey.

          “I could use a short respite myself,” he added, before thinking of a suggested destination. It would be slightly costly, but the Gil they’ve earned int he last few weeks was enough to last them for a few months, so they could afford something extravagant every now and then. “Camp Bronze Lake is the nearest spring with a pub from here, only just a few minute’s walk. We can relax ourselves there.”

          Quick breath. Don’t chew that lip, talk! He made this bed, time to lay— No, time to own it! 

“It’s uh.. been a while, right?  Figured maybe I should be more... proactive?”

                    ‘ please tell me that was an accident. ‘ 

                      there wasn’t a reason to actively knock                       him in the face with an elbow, was there ?                        fingers crossed it was all an accident and                       they can move on.
