[ this is probably as close as he's going to get to impressive tiddy material such as these ones. well. that's a lie. it's as least the closest he'll go because any more than this and he'll probably scare off the already skittish ero-ero beast before him. he chuckles at the reply he gets, and then finally pulls back.
he'll play nice, okay. ]
Me? I'm not really a beach person. [ as made clear by the hoodie. ] I'm not even sure why I'm out here.
[ most likely got dragged, but you know. ]
I guess I'm mostly just enjoying the sights. Why do you ask?
[ don't sell ryuu short - if his earlier blunder was anything to go by, he's pretty forthcoming with the wealth. mostly he doesn't want to look uncool to the people who are watching him, but maybe that ship's sailed, so to speak... ]
Oh, I see. I guess I should have asked about this beach, specifically...
[ seeing that ryuu has now given the goods and seems to otherwise be preoccupied, the fox prismals are finally beginning to slink off from the brazen display. hopefully they got what they wanted...?!
once ryuu feels confident enough that he's no longer the center of attention, he keeps flexed just so, enough to where he won't drop the cup when he reaches up to free it from its tiddy vice. bubble tea challenge: completed. good game, everyone. except now he has a melty cup of tea and it seems in poor taste to drink it himself. he kind of cranes his neck this way and that, looking around. ]
I don't know my way around very well yet, that's all! I got pulled in this way pretty easily, haha.
[ even if that ship has sailed, there are plenty of opportunities later. :sly: ]
So you're looking for a tour guide? Sure, I can show you around.
[ there's a brief moment where he considers asking if he was going to drink the tea, but he lets the cursed thought pass without a fight. it's probably for the best or else ryuu might spontaneously combust in front of him, and he thinks he's embarrassed the poor guy enough. ]
There are lots to see though, so I guess it depends where you want to go. Or what places you'd like to know where they're at.
I didn't want to make it sound so stuffy... but if you don't mind!
[ he thinks getting out of this spot would probably be the most beneficial, if his face is ever going to return to its normal color. the mention of there being lots has ryuu's expression smoothing out in recognition. ]
Yeah. This place is huge, I was really surprised by it. I know my way around a beach well enough, but the rest is totally different... even being told to go pick an apartment is a lot.
[ one does not simply go pick an apartment in tokyo, after all. ]
It's pretty overwhelming at first. [ ye xiu mostly shrugs, but he knows lunatia can be A Lot to take in for a newcomer. luckily for ryuu, he picked the laziest loser alive so he's going to know all about the shortcuts once this is over. ] But if you haven't picked out a place to live, we can start there.
[ he turns to face the direction towards his own apartment building. there's a brief moment he considers warning him about all the shenanigans that go down, but maybe that's best discovered in person. ]
Where I live is pretty comfy, and the neighbours are interesting enough.
[ a pause. ]
You can always move out if you decide it's not a good fit.
It's still such a surprising thing to hear someone say. [ a laugh as he pauses in following ye xiu's line of sight. ] "Just move in" or "just move out"...!
[ in such a big and bustling place, it's as if space isn't an issue at all. how cool. the more he takes in, the more interested he is in seeing everything for himself. just for a while - while he's here. ]
I'd like to see it! I don't need a lot of space... but fun neighbors, huh?

[ he's pretty capable of being cozy anywhere.
if today itself isn't an indication of that. ]

I'm sure you aren't the first one to find that weird, but it's true. The first one you pick is free until you upgrade to a better one.
[ as far as leading him back to his crazy building apartment... ]
But yeah. They're interesting enough. [ repeating himself. ] You'll like them. [ probably. ]
It's this way-
[ and off they go...! ]
