estoria | ain't no party like a kumou party

Who: the residents of the Cloudy Apartment (aka Tenka & Sousei & Soramaru & Nishiki & whoever else they might pick up....)
When: varies
Where: the best apartment Ever
What: Home is where the chaos is.
Rating/Warning: none at the moment!

[In this nifty little space, I'm going to mention that Sousei and Tenka used the HOLO(gm) to make the entire apartment look closer to the shrine, complete with sliding screen doors and tatami mats. They tossed all of the chairs out the window and proceeded to get really low tables and cushions so that they could sit around as they normally do.

The kitchen is the only modern-looking part of the apartment because they realized that as much as they fail at cooking, what they have is already better than the kitchen of the shrine. They also bought a rice cooker because that's pretty important.

For now, everyone has their own room. Subject to change if this family gets bigger or they decide to knock down a wall to the next apartment over. Who knows, maybe that'll happen on accident.

Lastly, they kept the couch. Because Tenka liked it and he still claims to be The Rule.]

If you want to find out through experience, I won't stop you.

[BUT HE'S NOT. TAKING THAT BOTTLE.

GOD.

NO. THIS IS A BAD IDEA.]

Sousei, you're being a killjoy again! C'mon, c'mon, you're my partner - doesn't that mean we do these sort of things together?

[HE'S SO SUNNY CAN YOU SAY NO TO THIS FACE

CAN YOU REALLY]

What... you think I should poison myself because you want to?

[.... so why is he considering it...

he eyes that bottle with disgust (but also contemplation).]

Shut up, it's not poison. We can split one if you're that worried about it.

[aka yes

yes he does expect you to go along with his dumb ideas just because he's the one asking]

[....................]

You are not going to stop until we do, are you?

Nope!

[And he's already opening up one bottle.

DUMBASS EXTRAORDINAIRE, TENKA KUMOU EVERYBODY]

[..........

he's just going to grimace

and watch

and wait

why is he here. why is this his life

kiiko save him]

[no kiiko in sight, just dumb tenka

dumb tenka now proceeding to down approximately half?? of the bottle? and then shoving it to Sousei

and maintaining a poker face right up until sousei's last swallow

except as soon as the bottle is emptied, he's making a gross choking noise]

That's awful!!

[Sousei just has his face in one hand, propped on the counter top. He already regrets it. He regretted it the moment he started to drink it.

Ugh god it's so bad.

So bad.]

That was stupid. [why does he let Tenka talk him into these things.] Just like I knew it would be.

You're stupid!

[That.... came too fast.... children..... But regardless he's just going to wrinkle his nose now as he looks over the label again.

It's supposed to give you energy, right? But how....]

Feel anything?

[...... only his tastebuds dying in droves!!!]

No.

[he will be jittery in like ten minutes.]

I fail to see how these ingredients are supposed to give us proper energy regardless. [He...admittedly doesn't recognize some of them, but he's learned about the rest.

high fructose corn syrup]

This is mostly sugar.

But at least sugar tastes good....

[Tenka discovered his sweet tooth in all the sugary as hell cereal he eats.

But now he's just. Shrugging.

Though the gesture might happen a bit faster and stilted than usual.

Not that he notices.]

Maybe it's a dud.

[Sousei is a little more self-aware.

So when his knee starts bouncing as he's sitting there, he narrows his eyes. And with some effort, stops bouncing it.

God why did he drink that.]

I don't believe it is.

[HRRGH.

He stands.]

Sitting here will not do us any good, then.

[Tenka stands too! Quickly!!

And he might talk a little fast, tripping over his words:]

So where're we gonna- What're we gonna do?

[He's surprisingly okay with this?]

[Tenka hyped up on energy is something he...already regrets....

SO MUCH REGRET.]

ViViD or sparring. I will let you decide.

[Tenka has to get out all of this energy somehow (and so does Sousei).]

[Tenka already has energy, why did he have an energy drink....

But still he's humming thoughtfully - in a few different octaves - before nodding so firmly. So so firmly.]

Let's spar!

[..... this is going to end terribly.

But he just...alsonods.]

Then let's go to the dojo.

[otherwise they may break their house]

[So terribly. But Tenka's nodding in agreement and moving for the door!!!]

Alright alright, let's go!!

[god sousei's gonna need sunglasses]

[He can already feel the headache brewing--or maybe that's the energy drink.

Either way, he follows at a more leisurely pace. It would figure that his reaction to energy drinks is just to not feel well after consuming... tough break, Sousei!!]

[Sousei's life is difficult especially since now Tenka's oVERLY ENERGETIC.

Even as they wander into the dojo, he's already slipping his shoes off and WALKING SO FAST.]

C'mon Sousei, what's taking you?!

[YOU'RE SO.........

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING.]

Calm down.

[never again. No..... never again.... but he does slip his shoes off as well, and walks in to grab a practice sword. But unlike Tenka's energy, he just feels gross, and that's... terrible...]

Spoilsport!

[SNIPING RIGHT BACK he's going to bite his tongue soon

and then he's grabbing a practice sword and admittedly turning it over a few times in his hands

jittery tenka is a mess but even as a mess, he tilts his head-]

You okay?

[Jittery Tenka is a disaster, and Sousei is even more irritable, and he just scoffs, turning away abruptly to put some distance between them for said spar.]

I'm fine.

[sort of. well, more or less.]

[YOU DO THAT, SOUSEI

but Tenka's just going to keep shifting from foot to foot]

You sure? Positive? You should rest if you're not sure.

[HE IS DOING THAT.

and honestly, it's just a mild headache and queasiness, which is hardly worth mentioning. They've trained through worse as the Yamainu--at least, until Taiko caught them and it was usually Koyuki who scolded them, but either way--

Tenka is so jittery, and Sousei doesn't think he can handle that energy in any way other than this.]

Yes, I am sure. Begin.

[Just go already, jeeze!!]
