Part 1

(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, Ryui. You just got out too?

………

(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?

Huh? Don’t play dumb.

My bad, what happened again?

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

Moi? Uuuh, when did that happen?

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

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

Yeah. What’s up?

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!

Oh? Is it like a half-hour long?

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

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

Oh, I see…

I’ll ask again sometime!

That bastard……

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

You’ve said your prayers, yeah?

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

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

(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~.

The fuck? Work out the timing yourself, asshole.

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.

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

……Huh?

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

Hah. Beer?

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