I live alone right now and I've grown used to him being around, so I miss him. I'm glad I have the others with me, but there is that little something missing. That being said, he's not... he doesn't really have the emotional maturity for this place. Like I said, he really is like a kid sometimes, he wouldn't understand what this place would ask of him, I think and I think it'd be a helluva crash course.
[And he wouldn't be able to hide that either. Sure, he could tell Teddie that all he needed to do was cuddle or "smooch" or something. But whose to say he wouldn't come across someone who wanted more than that? Teddie didn't know this stuff, it wasn't something that had come up for Yosuke to explain and his own parents sure as hell didn't give Teddie "The Talk" yet.]
If I wanted to give Teddie that Talk, this is not the place I'd want to do it.
[She nods, and is satisfied. She can understand that hesitation.]
Right. The physical requirements of Chroma may be overwhelming to someone not accustomed to its generation. And I imagine as a shadow he may think he knows what intimacy is but not what it actually entails.
[She chuckles gently.] You're a good older brother.
[He stands with her, using the motion to get over his flustered state.
He's still not sure he likes being called Frog, but she isn't laughing at him or teasing him so he let's it go for the moment.]
Yeah, no problem. Uh, if you need a training spot, just go down that way. There's a clearing me and Aragaki used to spar about a month back. It's out of the way and stuff. [He pointed in the direction that he remembered from before.] And um, thanks as well. For hearing me out about Ted and sharing what you did. I know I'm just a stranger right now, but... still.
[They were in this together, so it helped knowing they had more allies.]
And you can call me by my name if you want. Code names aren't really a thing with the Investigation Team, but I'll leave it up to you.
Actually, you're fine. A lot of people here aren't from Japan so I've gotten used to it.
[His name was close to Fox's... that was one of the PT's he didn't know the real name of... however now that he had that clue, it only took a few more moments to connect the dots given what he did know because of Ren.]
It... honestly really depends? There are people who manage to just... not do it. The other thing, I mean.
[Cue some light blushing here.]
But there are people who get hit with it pretty bad, I guess? Um, I usually just felt hungry a lot, sometimes wanting a hug or two but nothing more than that. It really varies from person to person, and month to month too.
Um, no, there isn't. It's kind of just gonna happen when it does. I can at least tell you when, since that seems to never change?
Usually the first five days is Sanguis, the next five is Cordis, and the next five after that is Iris. After that, there's three days where all three moons are out so every moonblessed will change. The rest of the month is just business as usual until the next month begins.

[That's a tough question and he winces slightly.]
Yes... and no.

no subject
[He was prepared for that though and he flushes a bit.]
A-Ah... I dunno 'bout that. But, um, thanks.
no subject
This is a good park. I think I might make it a place to spend some time training.
[She stands, readdressing Yosuke as she does.]
Thank you again for your help. Your answers were very informative. Please let me know if there is anything I can do or questions I can answer.
[She smiles.] I look forward to working together with you in the future, Frog.

[Come to think of it, she didn't really... know most of the people by their actual names. Huh.]
You're right... I don't believe we shared our names.
[Since he's offering.] Mine is Makoto Niijima.
no subject
Yosuke Hanamura. It's nice to officially meet you, then.
no subject
Until next time, Yosuke-kun.
Ah... Hanamura-kun. My apologies. Your name was a little close to Fox's.

Yusuke, I take it?

Perhaps you enjoy his art? He is very good.

no subject
[A hint of redness flushes her face.] And it will happen to everyone, then. [More of a statement than a question.]
I-Is there any way to know what blessing you have?
no subject
[he shook his head.]
Um, no, there isn't. It's kind of just gonna happen when it does. I can at least tell you when, since that seems to never change?

[She looks down and then back to Yusuke.] I will do what I can to... control myself, and hope that I can trust you and everyone else to do the same.
[But without experiencing it firsthand, that is the best that she can do.]
