★ 007 | Video (Backdated to June 30th)

[unbreaker]

[The camera is flicked on, already expertly focused. Josuke's doing, in case you wondered. But then, he's a teenager. He ought to be experienced if only for all the selfies he's taken!

Sitting next to him at a table outside an ice cream shop called What's the Scoop? is Hisoka. Unlike Josuke, the magician is busy with a gumball popsicle and doesn't appear to be paying any attention to the camera at the moment. The teenager, on the other hand, is already ready and eager to talk a little 'business' with the network...]

Okay, my friend and I had this amazing idea a while back! [Josuke throws an arm around Hisoka's neck and tugs him closer in a headlock. This involves you, buddy! Let the people see how amped you are!] See, we've been wanting to play some paintball, but then we got to thinking...why not make it an open invite? For imPorts, I mean.

[There's no jump at Josuke's sudden headlock but Hisoka definitely stops eating his ice cream to almost uncomfortably stare at the foreign limb slung over him. Only to then look down to see half of the popsicle he was eating now on the ground. Thanks Josuke.]

Mm... [A pause before he glances up to put in his two cents, just dropping the rest of his popsicle and the stick on the ground.]

An open invitation, yes, and we've already chosen the location. All you have to do is pick your own partner... or partners. It really doesn't matter how many of you there are. Though, to have the most fun? The more the merrier.

Yeah, and like, how many of you can resist an opportunity to pelt this guy in the face with paintballs, am I right? [Josuke nods in Hisoka's direction before sliding his arm off the other man's shoulders, though of course his smirk remains in place.] I'll be honest, though, 'cause I feel like it wouldn't be fair if I didn't warn you guys... Hisoka and I? We're gonna be on a team, so if you think we're gonna make it easy for ya, think again.

[Leaning forward to pick up the camera, Josuke cocks his head to the side, eyes bright with unbridled fun and mischief.]

If you're interested and you think you can keep up, then be ready for the 18th. Hisoka or I will text you the location the day before the game's on.

Oh...and one final thing. [Are you guys still listening? If you plan to play, you should be!] It's anything goes as long as it ain't lethal!

[And that's, as they say, that. Josuke hangs up, though not before a horrified yelp from the teenager can be heard...]

Fuck! Hisoka, I think you got ice cream on my new shoes!



[OOC: Quick edit! The post has been backdated to June 30th for scheduling reasons, and the date of the game itself has been moved to July 18th.]

[He doesn't care who you're hitting on, just don't hit on his family in front of him! That's so weird, man!]

Uh...you think? So knock it off!

[debauchewy]

I was just making a statement. Joestars are so touchy.

-Oh, no well, maybe not 'touchy'. [Huhu.]

[unbreaker]

Dude, seriously...!

[debauchewy]

It's really not my fault your father's attractive. [A smirk, raising his brows.]

But I had just been making a statement earlier, it was you who made it about Joseph.

idefk this is probably more action for them oops

[unbreaker]

I wasn't making it about him, I was saying you were talking about that stuff with him and it's weird man, I'm sitting right here, I don't wanna hear that!

[He's leaning over the table now and groaning, his forehead pressed into his forearms.]

You gotta find someone to hook up with, so you can stop saying that kinda thing about my pops...at least around me!

eerrrr yes, probably.

[debauchewy]

The word 'sex' out of no where for you is probably a little jarring, especially to hear it being spoken to your father.

[A laugh, holding a hand over his mouth.] Finding someone to hook up with has nothing to do with it. I'm entertained plenty in my personal time.

[unbreaker]

The hell's that supposed to mean?

[Someone's giving Hisoka the eye now, peeking up from the protective barrier of his folded arms.]

It's not shocking! The word, anyway. But it's weird hearing people talk about it with him. Hell, it'd be weird for most people my age to hear their folks talk about that.

[A beat and then he's letting his head crash back down into his arms.]

Uuugghhh...we need to find a new topic. You want more ice cream? I need to get some napkins anyway before the shit you dropped dries on my shoe...

[debauchewy]

It means I have someone to fill my time. [Well, a few someone's.]

More ice cream? As long as you don't put anything extra in it. [A stare.]

[unbreaker]

No, I mean the bit about...

[About the word 'sex' being jarring for him, but you know what? He's glad to move beyond that, so he just drops it and holds up his hands, instead. Innocently.]

...ah, never mind. And I wasn't gonna put anything in your ice cream! Do I look like the kinda guy who'd do that to a buddy of mine?

[debauchewy]

[Stare.]

[debauchewy]

[A sigh, closing his eyes.]

Maybe an actual cone this time... Would you like anything? I could treat you this time since I won't be back for a little while.

[unbreaker]

[What's that look for! He's innocent here, totally innocent!]

You're buying? Done deal. I'll take one of those chocolate and caramel ones with all the nuts on top...

[But before he can finish, the rest of what Hisoka says sinks in and Josuke trails off. Sitting up properly, he frowns at the other man.]

...wait, you're going somewhere?

[That miiight just be the tone of someone who'll miss you while you're gone, Hisoka.]

[debauchewy]

Well there was a reason I proposed this to take place later this month.

[Well, he was JUST gone, right? Still he catches that tone and smiles, cute.]

Only for two weeks. I'll keep in touch if you'd like.

[unbreaker]

If you wanna...!

[In other words, yes. He'd like it very much if you'd drop him a line even if it was just once while you were away.]

[debauchewy]

[A light laugh, his turn for friendly contact. He lifts a finger and Josuke will feel his head tugged a little. Just enough for it to come to Hisoka's hand, his finger tapping the tip of his nose.]

I will, speaking to you is refreshing.

[unbreaker]

Not sure how, but thanks!

[That's such a bizarre feeling! Josuke's face scrunches momentarily before he finds himself rubbing at his nose and sitting back, a grin tugging upwards at the corners of his mouth.]

So, where're you going?

[debauchewy]

[He's getting up now while they speak, going to head back into the ice cream shop.]

New York City. I never did get to sight see when I was there not long ago.

[unbreaker]

[Josuke will remain seated, turning his attention back to his comm and typing out replies.]

New York, huh? I think my old man's from there...

[He looks back over his shoulder.]

What's the deal with you two, anyway?

[debauchewy]

[A pause, frowning a little before glancing back and smiling, gesturing up a hand.]

He thinks I'm a pervert and he doesn't like me. [Really, it's that simple.]

[unbreaker]

He doesn't like a lot of people! But that's no reason to accuse them of being perverts.

[debauchewy]

[Well, he... IS a pervert so. Yeah. No comment there, he just smiles.]

Sometimes personalities are just opposed to eachother. Unfortunately he and I aren't very compatible. [Turning to the ice cream shop again.]

Oh well~

[unbreaker]

[Hisoka might be weird, but calling him a 'pervert' is uncalled for. At least in Josuke's opinion it is.

As far as the teen is aware, Hisoka's never done anything warranting such a label.]

I guess so.

[He turns back around and busies himself replying to another message, but not before he thinks to add...]

Don't do anything to my ice cream! I'll kick your ass!

[debauchewy]

[No comment there but what he returns with certainly has chocolate, caramel, and nuts. It's something double fudge scoop in a dipped waffle cone with peanuts. A bit huge and over the top but Hisoka seems pleased to have gotten it for Josuke when he sits down and hands it to him. It looks like Hisoka got some sort of sundae with a lot of fruit and whip cream.]

[unbreaker]

[Dude. That cone looks amazing.

But so does that whipped cream...

So, before Hisoka can settle down with his dessert, Josuke swipes Hisoka's spoon and steals a bite of his sundae! Well, the light and fluffy topping, anyway.]

[debauchewy]

[A laugh, pinching his lips together. He takes that spoon back quick by use of his Bungee Gum again, swiping it from Josuke's hand.]

You sneak. [Huff! But he'll scoop up more and plop it onto Josuke's cone.]

It is good. I suppose I know for the future then. [if he ever pays again, haaaha.]
