Done, almost.

[ever_yanagi]

 After some hustling, I seem to have cleared most of the credits I need for my degree. All that remains is my research project, which I can do mostly offsite.

So, Seiichi, I can spend all my time with you.

[gtl_yukimura]

Not all of your time. You have dates to go on and I have my own hobbies. Regardless, I'm really proud of you, Renji.

[ever_yanagi]

Most of my time.

Thank you. How goes school for you?

[gtl_yukimura]

I really should just get that house. It would make your torture of me that much more convenient.

Finished two paintings and a sculpture. I've been studying for art history as my exam is tomorrow.

[ever_yanagi]

Please do. I claim the room with the most wall space for shelves.

I would say good luck, but I don't think you need it. Good work.

[gtl_yukimura]

Shouldn't I get first crack at rooms since it's my house?

Thank you. ♥

[penipu]

i'll bust out the pompoms just for you /o/ \o\ \o/

no really congrats <3 big accomplishment

save some room for the rest of us

[naniwaspeed]

Tell me your secret... (ノ*°▽°*)

[saypassion]

Congratulations. That must be such a relief.

Could there be anything better than spending all that time with one of your favorite people?

[ever_yanagi]

Where's the cheerleading outfit?

Thank you. I'll always save time for you.

[penipu]

all you needa do is ask ;*

aw shucks don't make me blush

[ever_yanagi]

Very strict time management.

[ever_yanagi]

Yes. Some arm twisting was involved.

There really is nothing comparable.

[ever_yanagi]

I think you'd look good in the KK one.

And for Genichirou, Hiroshi, and Bunta.

[penipu]

how short's the skirt

i see how it is, i'm not special </3

let's get the gang together soon

[naniwaspeed]

I can only imagine. You got through that super quickly, too. Teach me your ways~ ♥

[ever_yanagi]

Vanishingly short.

I do like one-on-one time, but it has been a while since we all got together.

[saypassion]

That's all in a day's work, of course.

Not at all. I admire the friendship that the two of you share.

[penipu]

is it like magic

maybe for christmas

[ever_yanagi]

Even if it involves a 5am start, being in two classes at opposite sides of campus simultaneously, and sitting four exams in one day?

[ever_yanagi]

I don't get best friend dibs?

Let's celebrate a little when you're done.

[ever_yanagi]

You'll have to see it to believe it.

A fried chicken affair?

[ever_yanagi]

The ends justify the means.

Thank you. We've known each other for a very long time.

[penipu]

now you see it, now you don't

yes plz, with cake

[naniwaspeed]

That's... I mean, I commend you for that. 5am is when I usually get up to go running, so I don't know if physically my body would like if I switched out running for school, but that's quite a schedule. Four exams in a day is, uh... intense. Holy shit.

[saypassion]

And it's all a part of the journey, I imagine.

Of course. I understand.

[hiro_shi]

Congratulations, Yanagi-kun, you are now a free elf.

[ever_yanagi]

Belt or skirt? Only the angle will tell.

I'll see if I can round up the others, then.

[ever_yanagi]

I suppose it's basically a question of balancing your goals with what you're willing to do. I wanted to focus on my nascent career in Yukimura wrangling, so I decided a bit of suffering was all right school-wise.

[ever_yanagi]

Indeed. I'll probably look back in a few years and see that I could've done things far less complicatedly.

At this point we've grown on each other like mould.

[ever_yanagi]

Thank you, Hiroshi. I hope your studies are going well.

[gtl_yukimura]

You'll have to fight with Genichirou then.

Soon. Only one exam left for this term.

[ever_yanagi]

He'd want the tatami room.

Almost there. Shall I bring you dinner and tea if you're busy studying?

[dokuhana]

That's wonderful, Yanagi. When do you graduate?

[ever_yanagi]

Not that soon, really. Probably together with the rest of my cohort.

[penipu]

might even be a collar

lemme know deets, i'll make it happen

[naniwaspeed]

I guess that's a good point. With the kind of schooling I'm doing, I need to take it slowly to make sure that I gain as much experience as I possibly can before graduating and stuff, so it's definitely just different.

[saypassion]

I think the same thing could be said about life in general. It's human nature to overcomplicate things, even if it's unintentional.

Now isn't that the truth. A mould that seems to take shape and form when you least expect it.

[gtl_yukimura]

Assuming there is a tatami room. Besides, he's probably going to be living with Atobe by year's end.

Have I told you lately that you're the best? Because you're the best.

[ever_yanagi]

I approve of this mooching.

I try. Do you want noodles or a rice bento?

[gtl_yukimura]

I do so long as he gets laid.

Noodles.
