SUNDAY; BEGINNING

[justonezero]

[By the time Minato locates him again, Yoshi can be found curled up in a corner of the resort... taking a nap? This is quite possibly unsurprising, given how winded he was just making the journey over. Shut-ins, or at least up until recently, do not make for very good athletes.

So, here is the garbage bunny. He'll probably stir if approached, but for now he is snoozing away. Zzzzzzz.]

Comments

[justonezero]

Huh? Umm... I guess I don't really know!

[He likes Minato, but whether or not that's a two way street, he hasn't the faintest. All he knows is that he wants to help everyone he can, as much as he can.]

[messianic]

[He just thinks it's so sad that Yoshi's internalized all of these bad things when...]

I see... someone who's a little out of his depth, but is still trying very, very earnestly to help everyone he possibly can. Someone who's trying to use his own skills and talents for everyone's sakes here. Someone who's willing to push himself to do everything he can, no matter how exhausting it is.

[...And then, a small smile.]

To me, you're looking pretty impressive, Nanase-kun.

[AH.

He definitely looks flustered now. He has no idea how to handle words like this!]

I-isn't that incredibly high praise for garbage like me?

[messianic]

No, it's not.

[Peacefully and quietly:]

Because no matter what you say other people have called you, that's what I've seen from you in the time I've known you.

All I'm saying is what I honestly think.

[justonezero]

[He's so incredibly flustered, his face remains bright red. Wh-whoa...]

Th-that's... probably the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

[Literally. He can't remember anything that comes even close.]

[messianic]

... Mm, well... it's just something I thought you deserved to know.

Come on--I'll walk you to your room. Which one is yours...?

[justonezero]

[He's still kind of quiet, trying to digest it all.

Ever since he got here, things have been going so unexpectedly - scarily, in a lot of ways, but also...]

Um, 107!

[He'll go ahead and follow close behind Minato, at least! Congrats on the duckling.]

[messianic]

[Welcome, new duckling.]

Okay, that means you're over here...

[Peering at the room numbers as they go...!!]

I'm on the other side of the resort, past the reception.

[justonezero]

Yeah, it was...

[Hang on while he looks that up again.]

136... That's close to the ski equipment, right? Not going to be shopping there, but it's easy to remember!

[messianic]

Yes, that's right.

[And, peacefully:]

You can come by at any time if you need anything, okay?

[justonezero]

Right! And you can come and ask me for anything too!

[He'll do everything in his power to make it happen!!]

[messianic]

[That is not something Minato is inclined to do, because he's Minato and also Yoshi is kind of sad and pathetic, but it doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate the offer anyway.]

Mm, thank you. I'll remember that, Nanase-kun.

[Aha...]

Here we are. Next time, try to make it back to your bed, okay?

[justonezero]

[He opens up the room with a smile - even from here, Minato can probably see that it has a warm and cozy air to it, with two cute plushies sitting on the bed.]

I'll do my best, since you asked!
