(I think I remember seeing some craft beer chilling in the fridge…Ah, bingo.)

(This stuff definitely hits the spot after a bath. That hot spring inn owner’s taste in souvenirs is on point.)

Gotta have a glass of that after a shower…

(Oh dear, he’s glaring at me.)

(Well we’ve got work at the inn tomorrow, so I guess I should try to keep him in a good mood.)

Hey~. You mad about something?

Ryui Icon
Ryui

Oi, stop fucking around. You’re the one who hurt Toi, remember?

Ten Icon
Ten

Moi? Uuuh, when did that happen?

Ryui Icon
Ryui

You’re such an annoying shithead… I’m talking about when Toi talked to you earlier!

Um, Ten-kun. Are you free right now?

Ten Icon
Ten

Yeah. What’s up?

Toi

If it’s alright, would you like to watch a drama called “Wildin’ 21-Year-Old Boys” with me? I’ve heard it’s really interesting!

Ten Icon
Ten

Oh? Is it like a half-hour long?

Toi Icon
Toi

It’s a 180 episode epic, but according to the reviews it feels like it only lasts 30 minutes…

Ten Icon
Ten

Ah, my bad, someone’s trying to get a hold of me. Maybe next time~.

I couldn’t beat your ass back then ‘cuz Toi covered for you, but now…

You’ve said your prayers, yeah?

Ten Icon

Well I mean, a 180 episode marathon is asking for a lot.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

It’s a cake walk if you’re with Toi! Actually, screw 180 episodes. Even 100 seasons wouldn’t be enough.

Ten Icon
Ten

(Woah there. Someone’s getting heated. Guess I should toss some ice in.)

That said, you sure do care about your little bro, huh?

Y’know, I want to be better friends with Toi too, but the timing never seems to work out~.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

The fuck? Work out the timing yourself, asshole.

Ten Icon
Ten

That’s easy to say, but I’m a job-hunting college student, y'know? I’ve got a part-time job too, so it’s tough.

……Tch.

Ten Icon
Ten

I was thinking, it’d sure be nice if you taught me some stuff about Toi, since you're such an expert on him.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

……Huh?

Ten Icon
Ten

Hey, don’t be so uptight about it. Let’s have a chat over some beer.

Ryui Icon
Ryui

Hah. Beer?

Nah, forget beer. I’ll give ya something that’ll really teach ya about Toi.
