Let my art be the sound of my soul / Let it reminisce of the good times / Let it scribble the lines of the bad times / Let it bloom with excitement / Let my art be a representation of me / Just let it be me

[ Look, it's not weird to be a little nervous when you haven't been at a friend's place in a while.

He smiles as he shakes his head. ]

It's alright. Well, this is for you though.

[ He offers him the items that are actually for him. He'll deal with the notebook thing in a bit. ]

[flowrite]

Ahhh, thank you! You didn't have to do that!

[Fai reaches for the flowers and the berries and leans over to plant a friendly kiss on Koutarou's cheek before stepping aside to usher him in through the doorway.]

Come on in! Can I get you something to drink?

[It's a far cry from when Fai shut himself away in his apartment all those years ago. It's much more like a home now and less like a prison. The cats perk up their heads at the sight of another person at the door.]

[wordcarvings]

I know I didn’t have to.

[ He could have chosen not to, his insecurity had suggested both. But he did.

He steps inside and removes his shoes. And once he gets the chance to get a look at the apartment he’s happy to see it looking much homelier than it had in the past. ]

Water would be fine.

[flowrite]

Ahhh, boo~oring!

[Once Koutarou is inside and the door is shut, Fai calls back over his shoulder in a sing-song voice as he heads toward the kitchen with Koutarou's gifts. He's obviously teasing, though, judging by his tone and the bright smile on his face.]

Just let me put the flowers in some water and then I'll bring you some, alright? Have a seat wherever you like!

[He disappears through the kitchen doorway, leaving Koutarou momentarily alone with Soel and Larg. Who are... lazy, and don't bother to move from where they're taking up almost the entire couch.]

[wordcarvings]

Boring, hm?

[ He smiles at him, shaking his head in amusement. ]

Okay, I will do that.

Hello, do you mind if I sit with you?

[ The cats are clearly taking up most of the space but he doesn’t need that much space and somehow manages to fit in the couch without having to move either cat. ]

[flowrite]

[And being the lazy assholes cats that they are, the two of them wait until Koutarou is settled and then immediately get up to nudge their way into his space, trying to invade his lap.

Fai reappears a few minutes later with the flowers in a vase, which goes in the center of the dining table, and a glass of water for Koutarou.]

Dinner's ready whenever. Are you really hungry, or do you want to do Show and Tell before we eat?

[wordcarvings]

[ That’s fine with him, since he likes all animals he has no problems with that, and he instead introduces himself to the cats and pets them a little.

He smiles up at Fai, and accepts the water. ]

I’m fine with whenever, though it’s been a while since I had your food. Show and tell sounds nice too though.

[ Even if dealing with weapons is, well, less nice. ]
