video: un Ryoji 💖 (note: will be slightly future-dated so newcomers can post once unlocked)

[thanatoast]

[An overly excited, but tall young man that looks like he'd break in two like a twig if the wind blew on him waves at the screen. This is the first time he's addressing the entire network, so like all first posts, it is made to give a lasting impression.]

Hello everyone! [He takes a small bow, all the while smiling.] My name is Ryoji Mochizuki!

[And what does he have to share with the world? Some wise words of wisdom? A new discovery? Well...]

I'd like to take you on a date! This world is beautiful and I want to share it with as many people as possible!

[...Wow.]

Whoever you are! [Then, he adds;] Well, I have to admit that I enjoy the company of pretty girls! It's okay if you're a guy too! I'm just am very lucky because my world has many beautiful women like Yukari-san, Mitsuru-san, Aigis-san and...there's also Minako of course...

[How did Ryoji get these pictures of everyone? Why does Aigis look like she wants to murder him? It is a mystery.]

But there's also Minato and while he's not a girl, he's handsome in his own right! My roommate Akira is very handsome too! I don't have a picture of him, sorry...But! There's many beautiful people in this world, I figured it would be easier contacting you all this way! Oh! And we don't need to moonlace, this isn't some sort of uh...

[He pauses to look into his 'Big Book of Sex Terms for Dummies'.]

...gigolo offering? I think that's the term...

[He snaps the book shut.]

...it's just a friendly date! If you want to hold hands, that's okay, I don't mind.

[Yeap. This is what lasting impression people will have of him. At the very least he looks...innocent about it? There doesn't seem to be a sinister undertone about it.]

So please, let me know if you're interested. I promise it will be worth your while!

[He takes a bow again.]

Thank you very much!

[OOC: I'm sorry (but not really) also Ryoji's info and permission pages.]

[Minato could easily figure out just why they were "on a break" just from that alone, so he hoped he was quick enough and stepped in.]

Ryoji, please stop using the book, I told you not to use it. And to return it.

[sleepinglotus]

[Bless you, Minato.]

It's... fine. He's just curious about these things, right?

[Ren is it really fine? You look like you just ran ten miles in the last thirty seconds.]

[afoolshope]

[Minato wishes he can teleport to Ryoji like Ryoji can to him. Instead, he just slouches a little on the couch, looking a little exasperated from his visible eye.]

You can still tell him to stop. He'll listen.



...right, Ryoji?

[thanatoast]

Minatoooooo....

Well I promised I would, so I guess I'll stop.

Sorry, Ren-san!

[sleepinglotus]

[Exasperated at him, or at Ryoji? Or both?

Really if Ryoji doesn't know, Ren trying to be dismissive of his own uncomfortableness probably isn't helping things here.]

I... it's alright.

[He tries to smile but it's still strained. Maybe... change the subject back to what this originally started as.]

I'm glad you're making lots of friends, Ryoji.

[thanatoast]

[Maybe that's why he tries to pick it right back up. Or maybe it's because he doesn't know any better. His own experience with a similar situation was strange.]

Let's be friends! I can take you out on a date too!

[sleepinglotus]

[Gosh he's cute.

Reminds him of Penny a bit.

His smile is light but genuine this time.]

I would like that.

[thanatoast]

[Awww look at that, so much better. Like a brief ray of sunshine that parts the sadness.]

What type of date do you like?

[sleepinglotus]

[Hard to stay upset at a face like that.]

Oh, I'm fine with anything, really. I'm not at all picky. I can even cook something for you, if you'd like a more relaxed date.

[thanatoast]

I don't get to taste other's cooking very much, so that could be fun actually! But now I feel bad since I'm the one who was offering the date...can I bring something to help?

[sleepinglotus]

If you want to. You could also choose what you'd like to try. I'm fairly versatile when it comes to cooking.

[thanatoast]

Please cook me your specialty! Thank you!

[So polite.]

I'll bring something! I'm not sure what yet...

[sleepinglotus]

Well, some would argue that my specialty is pancakes...

[Not exactly a dinner food.

Nora would argue it was, but Nora could literally live off pancakes.]

[thanatoast]

Pancakes sound great! I've seen some really huge ones in Japan that they serve with ice cream!

[Bold of him to assume Ryuji knows exactly what makes good dinner food. He just seems excited. Is it a good idea, however to stuff him with sugar?]

[sleepinglotus]

I've... never had pancakes with ice cream before...

[That sounds like so much sugar and yet he really wants to try it now.]
