[ Day 6 ]

[ Early morning (locked to Tsuzuki) ]

[ The best part of waking up in a body that isn't yours is finding out the company said body keeps when it sleeps. Which is why the first thing that Joshua notices, upon waking up in a place which is distinctly not House 38, is the other person in bed with him. ]

... I think I missed something.

[ And after that fun little interaction resolves itself, Joshua picks up the journal and reaches out to the person it might be a bit important to contact about this. ]

[ 100% filtered to Joshua and Hisoka because he isn't quite sure which is the necessary one in this sort of situation ]

I do hope that my body is over there with you.

[ Morning onwards, open ]

[ Joshua and Hisoka are wandering around town together. But to anyone who knows them, something seems odd... ]

It's rather hard to believe that you wouldn't have any way to make mental defenses.

If you want to figure it out while you're in there, be my guest.

[ Feel free to run into the two of them. Clearly they want to be bothered. ~~At least I'm sure Hisoka does, since he isn't the one with the headache for once.~~ ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yes, Sure. [Eggs! He needs eggs! This conversation continues whiel he gathers the ingredients in the kitchen.] It depends on what you have to accept to stay in the partnership, doesn't it? People have lines they don't want crossed.

Do you cross them?

No, but Hisoka is scared that I will.

Doesn't he run that risk with anyone?

Yes, I suppose. It's not easy to avoid when he feels everything.

[Eggs are cracked.]

On the other hand, he has plenty of warning to cut you off.

I haven't thought of it like that before.

Isn't it enough that you do your best to respect his boundaries, and trust him to tell you if you slip? You're partners, after all.

[Well, Joshua has a good point. Tsuzuki gives him a grin, his emotions brightening a bit.]

I hope so. Thanks, Joshua.

[ And, because Joshua can't be so nice without also being a jerk... ]

Besides, I doubt whatever happens between you two will end as poorly as what happened between him and me.

[He can't have heard that right.]

What?

Well, I suppose it doesn't matter, anyway.

No, don't be like that. What did you mean?

Well, this might not be my story to tell. Hisoka gets rather more embarrassed about it than I do, after all.

[It's a good thing they're not touching. Joshua wouldn't have liked the build-up of indescribable emotion that's making Tsuzuki tense. He's quite honestly forgotten that he was supposed to make them breakfast.]

What have you been doing to him?

What's with implying it's recent? That experiment was around a year ago.

[That somehow doesn't make it any better.]

So... Before or after Link?

After Link what?

[He looks into Joshua's borrowed green eyes]

You didn't know? They were an item during Valentine's day.

If you mean Valentine's Day last year, then it would have been after. What happened then?

[He shrugs, feeling uncomfortable. Not only does he not want to remember those details, he's also wondering just what Hisoka is doing when he's not looking. It would have been nice to know whether it was Luceti playing with them again, or if his partner really did have a whole different life.]

Nevermind that. What exactly happened with you and 'Soka?

I asked first.

Hisoka fell madly in love on valentine's day.

It kind of sucked.

For you?

[He nods uncertainly.]

I think he had a blast. I just wish I had gotten some warning.
