_{[ Gintoki clasps his hands together. ]}

Ah-hahaa! That's just it, man, we just gotta make you fancier than she is then you'll be memorable.

_{[ It's kind of cute how desperate Gintoki wants to hook Osomatsu up with someone, honestly. ]}

[Osomatsu looks excited for a moment, then realizes that becoming fancy goes against everything that he stands for, against every fiber of his being.

he reaches for more alcohol, but there is none. he drank both of his cups!]

But... I don't wanna be fancy! I love Marie, but I'm already puttin' on dresses for her. I don't wanna have to change everything.

Oh, right... being garbage is kind of your trope. Hmmm.

_{[ Gintoki strokes his chin. ]}

What about just for.. I 'unno.. a date? Reel her in that way. Like the way shitty infomercials do.

[talking about this was a mistake. he always seems to spout more information than he wants to at Gintoki. it's weird]

Maybe... I do like infomercials.

[??????]

I dunno, man. It's all too complicated an' it shouldn't be. [he slips out of the chair, landing wobbly on his feet, but he manages to stay up] I'll think about it.

Anything with a girl is complicated, buddy.

_{[ oh what, he's leaving.. ]}

Where ya going? Somewhere else to wallow?
Probably not the best to do that alone.

[girls need to stop being complicated, it's true]

I was thinkin' a-about heading back to the villa.

And being fancy?

_{[ Oh. Look at that crooked grin. He looks hopeful! ]}

Just for one night?

[Gin, look at him. he's drunk. he can barely stand up on his own two feet, and he's wiping his nose off with his sleeve]

No? I was thinkin' of going to sleep and hoping I'll have forgotten about this by morning.

_{[ Oh.. oh damn. Yeah, that is certainly a drunk muppet right there. Though, Gintoki is pretty wasted himself. ]}

Wanna come back to my place instead?

[a blink. Osomatsu wonders why. his slow brain is moving even slower than usual because of the alcohol.

at the same time, spending time with Gintoki might be better than going back to the villa and... you know. wallowing in self-pity because he's not part of Marie's most special clique. Gintoki's fun. he says ridiculous stuff but Osomatsu relates to him]

...You got food?

And end up lugging around extra saggy airbags I don't need? Nah. Hard pass.

[ She's eerily calm while Gintoki does his usual complaining routine, only occasionally rolling her eyes when appropriate.
Doesn't look like the usual insults are going to rile her up this time - Panty's too busy being ~absolutely flawless, bitch~ to give a rat's ass about something as trivial as bust size. Besides, it's like she always told Stocking... ]

Perky, fierce, and sensitive is so much better than nips the size of dinner plates, but fine. You have no idea what to do with anything that isn't smaller than a blimp. I get it.

[ Panty does, in fact, like the changes this time around. Considering it looks a lot like she's been coated from head to toe in bling (seriously girl that's like 110% too much gold... scales, nails, hair, horns, the whole shebang) it's no wonder her ego has skyrocketed.
SMUGNESS INTENSIFIES. ]

We both know that's not really why you're here though.

I have enough food.

_{[ Not a lot, but enough. ]}

It's a lot quieter at the place I'm staying at.

_{[ And he.. hates it. You could say he wants company too. ]}

Sounds perfect! Let's go!

[oh, look at that. Osomatsu is grinning. at least he's not moping anymore]

Don't act like this was all my doing. You're the one who lured me in here.

_{[ Yeah. She is calm and it is weird. Also, the way she just keeps talking it making the hair (and now, fur) over Gintoki's body slowly rise, little goosebumps peppering over his skin.

He's looking her over and he's doing a pretty good job not jumping her bones.
However.. was he.. salivating? That's something new. He rubs the back of his hand against his mouth as if it were nothing.

Then, with distaste: ]}

I hate gold.

_{[ Which is true. He's known as the silver samurai after all. ]}

"Lured", my ass. I'm still deciding if I want to deal with the headache of letting you in.

[ Panty smirks - slowly and purposefully letting her gaze sweep lower in a blatant ogling below the belt.
He hates gold? No wonder dude can't afford a proper bed! Silver's fine and all if you're okay with settling for second place. Perfect for people with a complete and utter lack of ambition.

Normally she'd respond with a barb of her own by now - Panty's tempted all right - but there's an even better idea percolating in that blonde head of hers.
Like crossing that little space left between them so she can hook her fingers in the belt around his waist, giving him a little tug with her back towards the open door of the apartment. ]

That's a shame... I could probably change your mind.

[ Is that a new cologne he's wearing? It's... nice. Strange in a way, since she can't quite place what scent it is, but it's pleasant enough to have her wanting to get cozy in short order. ]

_{[ Look. One of his enemies was a version of him but in gold.. he's got insecurities.
The scent he gives off is the distinct smell of strawberries, but something else is a lot more alluring about it. The fur from the long, white tail that trails behind him starts to bristle as Panty tugs him further towards her and his hands just happen to settle on her hips. Look at that.

It's not very often that his face blushes, but he isn't used to being pursued in such.. an attractive way. Normally it was just his stalker back home who never did anything tasteful. Not at all. ]}

That shouldn't be anything for you to be too proud about, oi. I can be persuaded with certain things but.. you just have to tempt me enough.

_{[ Taking the bait. He's vulnerable thanks to the Cordis moon and wants to be enlightened. ]}

[ ~~sounds like someone needs to GIT GUD~~
Panty definitely sees that blush. However, she doesn't comment on it for once, only giving him a knowing look out of the corner of her eye as she draws him in closer, and closer, and closer still, leading them back through the doorway one step at a time. ]

Tempt you, huh. And how am I supposed to do that?

[ A rhetorical question, really, considering he looks plenty tempted already. Buuuuut since she's got this extra helping of unshakable confidence on top of her naturally occurring cockiness, Panty has no qualms about investigating the source of his interesting new 'cologne' while simultaneously letting him run his mouth as he likes.

Namely by leaning in just enough that she can leave a frustratingly light brush of her lips over the side of his neck. ]

_{[ Well, mission accomplished as far as that goes. Something about seeing Osomatsu young and upset really strikes something with Gintoki despite the fact he isn't sober at all. The tread back to his place seems like it takes forever, but when they're finally at his place, Gintoki lets out a long sigh and shakes his shoulders out. ]}

Aaaaa! Yes, this is the absolute best...! Nobody here..! And no girls! Just how I like it!

_{[ Ginchan, are you okay. ]}

[no girls...]

I thought you liked girls.

[hic]

_{[ It's sarcasm, Osomatsu..!! He's obviously pretty mad about living on his own. But now that we're on the subject... ]}

Yeah, yeah, yeah.. girls are great.. with their knockers.. and unpredictable temperament..

But guys.. guys aren't bad either.

_{[ HIC. ]}

[oh, he missed the sarcasm.

but he lights up a little at what Gintoki says, swaying slightly before leaning against a wall. Osomatsu hasn’t talked to too many people about his sexuality yet, because he doesn’t have people he feels comfortable talking to about it.

but Gintoki’s different! he’s like that quirky old uncle that you bicker with but also get along with? who seems so wise while simultaneously is a jackass? who knows]

Yeah... yeah! What’s wr-wrong with liking both?!

_{[ Gintoki's time period had put him at a weird cross roads on the subject. They were just entering a new era where this kind of thing was growing less and less tolerated thanks to other influences, but really.. it was more common among his peers (especially when he was a soldier) than he might have put off. ]}

Gwahh, well, there ain't really anything wrong with it. Especially if you're bein' true to yourself. That sort of thing is kinda looked down where I come from, but..

_{[ Hmm. ]}

Doesn't mean it's wrong just 'cause other people might think it.

[being true to himself, huh? Osomatsu thinks about it]

What's your place like?

My place? My place.. aaah. It's busy. It's a big city. There's a lot-- a lot of stuff going on.. buildings.. they just keep getting bigger.. things keep on changing. Though.. those hearts of the people, they're still the same. They're still the people I want to protect. They're still my purpose. They're all idiots, but they're my purpose.

_{[ you can't ask a shounen hero what his place is like when he's drunk.. sentimental stuff like this happens. ]}

_{[ Then, out of nowhere, and very nonchalantly: ]}

Oi. Wanna kiss?

_{[ I'm sorry. ]}
