sits and thinks about how both kunikida and chuuya have had/havs guilt complexes… thinks about how kunikida and chuuya both have had/have guilt complexes… thinks about how
thinks about how they both devote their life to their work and who exactly are they trying to prove themselves to? to the people who look up and respect them? or to themselves? how kunikida holds the weight of all the people he couldn’t save on his shoulders. how chuuya grieves all his subordinates and regularly visits the flags’ graves. how they’re both said to be fated for doom—kunikida’s ideals will kill him, chuuya’s power will kill him. how it doesn’t stop them from honing it anyway because maybe, just maybe, that’s all they really know
Chuuya twirls one end of Kunikida’s red ribbon around their finger, grinning at the way his cheeks flush horribly in response. They came to meet him for lunch, because they’ve both been too busy to see each other much during the past few weeks, but Chuuya is seriously debating ditching work for the rest of the day and just dragging Kunikida back to their apartment. It’s only because they know Kunikida would never agree that they refrain from suggesting as much.
They lean closer to him, grinning, tugging on the ribbon slightly. “See something you like, pretty boy?”
Kunikida purses his lips together. He tries to glare, but it doesn’t exactly work. Chuuya opens their mouth to tease him some more, but before they can say anything else, someone loudly clears their throat.
Chuuya looks up to find Lucy glaring at them. She sets their drinks down on the table harshly, tells them, “I am so sick of you people coming into my café and being disgusting,” then stomps away.
And, okay, maybe Chuuya should respect Lucy’s wishes and back off. But it’s been a week and a half since they’ve gotten a moment alone with Kunikida, and they’re feeling a bit vengeful. So instead, they flip Lucy off and yank Kunikida into a kiss.
things that are (probably) true now that we have canon birthdates for the oxenfree characters
the events of the original oxenfree take place on june 4th, 2016. if taken into town, nona reveals that her birthday is in 3 days. since we now know that her birthday is june 7th, and that lost signals takes place 5 years afterwards in 2021, we finally know the exact day the first game happens. yay!
clarissa's birthday happens to fall on the same day that anna was killed. as maggie writes in adler letter 9, april 4th is the day in 1952 that she and anna tried to bring the sunken back.
last year, ren went to the movie theater and watched oppenheimer with nona (and clarissa) because she wanted to see it, even though he wanted to go see barbie, and it was his birthday that day.
kunichuu + “i should be allowed to see Kunikida's hair down”
SKJDSFKJDSJK. ON IT BOSS. featuring the mutuals circle's PM drinking trio
-
"And I just think that I— hic— I should be allowed to see Kunikida's hair down!"
Hirotsu and Kajii share a glance. Chuuya is definitely drunk.
Their executive makes a wailing noise, slamming his head on the table. For a second, Hirotsu worries that he gave himself a concussion. But then Chuuya's head shoots back up and he continues slurring on.
"He never takes it down! Not even w-when I go over on a normal day. It's so unfair! I—" he interrupts himself by downing the rest of his glass. Neither of them move to stop him.
"You could always just pull his hair tie off," Kajii supplies helpfully. Hirotsu has no opinion on this matter, so he simply nods along.
"Mm. You're right." Chuuya slams his hands on the table, wobbling a bit as he stands. "I'm going to— hic— do it right now."
He takes exactly two steps before he trips over his feet. Hirotsu catches him with an arm, sighing to himself.
As he puts a passed out Chuuya back on the seat, letting him lean against the wall, Kajii snickers. "Damn. I wanted to see it happen."
"Maybe next time," Hirotsu says as he calls for another drink.
