--shit's supposed to record my voice? Why the fuck would I want to leave a message on this thing anyway? They should know who the fuck they're calling if they're calling me in the first place, and obviously I'm not gonna pick up if I don't like them so...

What do you mean it's already recording?

[Things Naki was not prepared for: this conversation.

He hesitates a bit, sniffling and trying very hard to hold back the tears, but when he finally manages to speak, it's obvious that he's pleased.]

Th-Thanks. I don't think... It's not like I think I'm useless or worthless or anything but... but it's so good to hear that from someone like you s-so...

[He sniffles and rubs at his eyes for a moment before he finally manages to smile.]

Thanks. It... it means so fucking much to me.

["Someone like you"...?]

It's good to hear you hold my opinion in such high regard, I suppose.

But you're welcome; anytime.

[deaftly]

Well yeah, of course I do! You're a really good friend and you're... pretty awesome in general.

[He could be more specific with that and say that Tsukiyama's really smart and seems to know what to do with himself at all times, but this is easier and a little less awkward.]

[preybeforemeals]

Consider me flattered, then!

[And from the sound of it he actually is, wow.]

Are you going to be busy today?

[deaftly]

You should be!

[But that lacks the usual bite and Naki seems pleased with it.]

Nah, I don't think so. I usually don't have plans. Why?

[preybeforemeals]

Because I want to spend time with you, amore. Maybe dancing tonight; I can teach you a bit more, if you want.

[deaftly]

Ah, really? I haven't tried it since that dance thing, so I probably suck. I'm getting pretty good at Dance Dance Eeveelution though!

[Naki]

[preybeforemeals]

Well, that's something, anyway, and I don't mind helping you pick it up; I'll give you a time later today, then.

[...]

I appreciate the conversation tonight, by the way.

[deaftly]

Okay! I'd like that!

[Naki hesitates for a moment before grinning.]

Yeah, me too. Thanks for calling me, I really like talking to you!
