DINNER;

[managership]

[ truthfully, it wouldn't have mattered to kiyotaka whether they made plans on a weekend or weekday-- they're often equally filled with work for him, given the volume of administrative tasks he takes on. still, he'd hoped by choosing saturday, he might shuffle his work around and get out of the office earlier, and with nanami's own strict work-related rules, they could have the rest of the evening together.

provided, of course, there are no emergencies that require either of them.

so far, things have worked out surprisingly well. kiyotaka had time to stop by his small apartment to shower and change--though he'd had a small crisis about what to wear, given how long it's been since he's been on a date--and arrive at the restaurant fifteen minutes early. he'd chosen this place specifically for their bakery, which is open until the wee hours and very highly-rated, and for their small plates meant to accompany said fresh breads and rolls. he knows that nanami is a bit of a foodie, and kiyotaka's always been good with research.

it's also meant to be a relaxed place with a quiet, intimate atmosphere, which he'd mentioned in their texts earlier that day, so he hopes he's even recognizable out of a suit and in a light sweater and jeans. he's not a particularly tall or remarkable man, so he has some mild concern he'll just blend in with the sidewalk traffic. ]

[ leave it to Ijichi to find exactly the kind of place Nanami would enjoy. the scent of fresh bread mingles with the smell of the dishes, olive oil, different vinegars, fresh herbs, and warm spices, creating a comforting, almost cosy aroma that lingers in the air.

Nanami had cast an appreciative glance at Ijichi before they sat down - he looks good out of a suit. the sorcerer has gone for a dark blue shirt and cream-coloured slacks himself, putting them in inverted matching outfits. ]

Have you come here before?

@eyescar

[tokakujuho]

It's an amusement park.

[ as if that explains everything. ]

[eyescar]

[ ??? ]

[tokakujuho]

No, but Gojo-san is better suited for that kind of place.

[eyescar]

[tokakujuho]

Please, don't waste your money on me.
But I can meet you all in Osaka for dinner.

[eyescar]

[tokakujuho]

[ buying him gifts is a waste of money! ]

Barring any emergencies, I should be able to make it for a later dinner.
I know you will.
As long as you don't ask Gojo for input.
Actually we can park him at one of the dessert restaurants.

[eyescar]

But thank you.
I hadn't thought of it until now.

[eyescar]

no way… is it stalking…

[eyescar]

anyway i got you a gift

[tokakujuho]

[ well... Nanami does count the months of sensing Itadori's energy outside his flat while he was trying to hide from the world. ]

A gift?

[ why is the boy wasting money on this wreck?? ]

[eyescar]

[ Yeah… That definitely counts. ]

that’s what people do on birthdays

Did you find religion at the bottom of a bottle?

[ it'd better not be religion or he'll feel obliged to put on pants, leave the sanctity of his home and slap the cult leader. with intent and force this time. ]

ty!!!

[gorb]

Wouldn't it be a little late to find it considering the role I've already taken on?

( He's very serious about his job ok!!! )

[tokakujuho]

That's just exploitative capitalism, Geto-san.
Perhaps it's better if you didn't find religion.
Saves you from going to hell.
Of course, you'll miss all the parties we'll be having there, so there's that.

[gorb]

Oh, I only take money from the rich monkeys. Surely that's me doing my civic duty?

[tokakujuho]

That doesn't sound feasible when you're actively rejecting society's norms and conventions.

[gorb]

Nanami, you're being a stickler for details really ruins my fun and games.

[tokakujuho]

I'm doing you a favour here.
Your lack of attention for detail might derail your grand vision for the future.

Are you sure you want to drink?
