I'm in here, Yosuke-kun.

[ if he follows her voice, he'll find her in one of the rooms slightly down the hall. Whatever the sign on the door used to be, it's now taped over with a slightly battered handwritten sign that reads "School Living Club".

It looks like a fairly standard clubroom on the inside, save a few oddities. There's a fair few stacks of boxes lining the walls and their overstuffed bags are laying beside them. And there's a little kitchen area with a hotplate, a rice cooker and a sink where Yuuri's busily making something that smells very good. ]

Did you manage to get yourself cleaned up?

[garudynamic]

Yeah...

Wow, it smells... amazing in here!

[He kinda sounds like he's fighitng back more emotions. God when had he last had hot food? He can't remember]

Is there anything I can do to help?

[serrata]

I'm glad you think so. I thought rice and katsu curry might be a good choice.

[ this is a victory, after all. a little one, but a victory nonetheless. ]

Would you mind setting the table? There should be some chopsticks and cups in the cupboard. I'm nearly done with this, so we'll be eating soon.

[garudynamic]

Right! Right...

[He sets to work doing so, gather everything and starting to set it on the table.

Only to be forced to stop and gather his composure, hands bracing him on the edge. It was so... normal. And the weight of everything that has happened comes crashing in again- he bites back a small sob as best he can, fruitlessly hoping she wouldn't hear him]

[serrata]

[ She hears him alright -- and it's enough to make her stop in her tracks as she cooks. She shouldn't be surprised by a reaction like that and she lets out a long, slow sigh. The curry is fine to leave for a moment so Yuuri steps away from it and makes her way over to Yosuke's side. ]

Yosuke-kun. [ her voice is soft and she's trying her best to reassure him. ] It's okay. You're safe now.

[garudynamic]

I...I'm fine.

[He's pattering the table with tears, but he's managing to keep it silent]

Sorry... sorry I'm just... ya know, being dumb!

[serrata]

... There's nothing dumb about it.

[ She lifts a hand like she wants to set it on his shoulder or something but finds herself hesitating. That seems a bit too forward and she doesn't know how well he'd react to it. So instead she takes in a shaky breath and gently bumps her shoulder against his. ]

I'm the one who should be sorry. This all happened so fast and I didn't give you any time to settle in.

[garudynamic]

No, no-! You've been... amazing.

[He smiles weakly]

Just you being here is way more then I could really hope for.

[serrata]

I should be saying the same to you, you know. It's been... very quiet here for a very long time. I think I'd almost forgotten what it's like to actually have someone around.

[ a pause. and then; ]

Do you think you'll be staying?
