[honestly, the song's probably stuck in his head now, and they're up to what. quadruple decker revenge at this point? Dave's kind of lost count, as well as any ideas he had in mind to get back at Ryuji in the first place.]

[so Ryuji's earlier assumption that the threat of revenge had no actual teeth to it was the correct one.]

[but the most effective way to get a stubborn song out of your head is, weirdly enough, listening to it. which .... yeah, he'd rather just live with Toto at this point.]


You asking me or the first robot to turn in the uprising? [yeah, he hears that obnoxious grin, buddy. and he has half a mind to retaliate by tossing him in the pool next.]

Oh. Well, great, that's pretty fucking awesome to hear after I already made an assumption about this being a solo swim and just dove right on in.

[there's ... not a lot of teeth to that remark, either.]

But yeah, all right. I'll throw you in the pool, since you're offering.

[he could take Dave easy, huh? maybe — but maybe, also consider Dave's current arsenal of pool battle tactics. there's the suplexing. there's the Sylladex. there's the stopping time.]

[lots of strategies that begin with s. and, yeah, all of those would probably earn him the label of sdirty scheater.]

[but he quirks an eyebrow at the question, the challenge, thumbs casually dug into his pockets.]


No idea what you mean by that.

[that whole line of thought presents an interesting question, though: which one of them would actually win in a no items, no abilities, Final Destination match? the main reason Dave has such a huge advantage here is he has an arsenal of overpowered tricks, after all. and the both of them seem to have the same sort of melee build, though Ryuji probably hits a lot harder. you know, when he actually lands hits.]

[it'd probably boil down to who has more endurance.]

[but to answer Ryuji's question, he is a kid who hails from the South and whose fated bullshit quest planet is literally just a giant ball of lava. Dave's always a little cold on board this space station, and going for an accidental swim didn't help much.]


You've got a towel. [he says he's got a towel ... but strange, Dave doesn't see one in his hands! he doesn't make any sudden moves, though — he's just watching to see how close Ryuji is ultimately going to get to him.]

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-16 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[maybe Falco would be a better pick for this hypothetical, especially considering the intense game of chicken they're playing right now — Ryuji closing the distance between them with each turn like he's some sort of really tall Tonberry, and Dave, though he's casual about it, stubbornly holding his ground, waiting to see if Ryuji follows through on what that rowdy smile of his seems to imply.]

[but then, Dave finally goes ahead and tosses a strategy out into the air. because it's a verbal one.]


Hold that thought a second, Mufasa. Before you dunk me, I wanna ask you something.

[dude. that's the oldest trick in the book, you really think Ryuji's gonna fall for it.]

[Ryuji's poker face could use some work. poker laugh? poker try to avoid snorting when you're called out. see Dave's face? do that.]

[of course, even the best poker players have their tells. like how Dave folds his arms across his chest, pursing his lips, perhaps hinting that he's got his own dunking scheme currently whirring away in his head.]


Some jazz music, actually. Like, some jazz music that started playing out of no where in my room the other day.

You wouldn't know anything about that, huh?
oculusriffs: catrente @ tumblr (i forgot i was supposed to forget)

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-17 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[lol. Dave's got Ryuji right where he wants him now.]

[but yeah, it's true, it was a great prank, he'll admit it. and you can bet he'll also be using the space station AI responsibly to return the pranking favor.]


Really? I was gonna tell whoever was responsible thanks.
oculusriffs: unknown (go ahead and be relieved)

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-17 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Ryuji ... you might be making this too easy.]

[it's Dave's turn to close the gap between them, then.]


Well, someone had to tell Kristoff which room to drop off some smooth jazz.

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-17 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope.

[mutually assured destruction it is, then. what's Dave got to lose? Simba already dunked him to the murky depths once already today, may as well go down in a blaze of pseudo vengeful glory.]

I'm just saying, chatbots don't get random wild hairs about sharing their music tastes on their own, right? [Dave, don't ... don't call the station's AI a chatbot??]

I figure someone must have been, I dunno. Texting with Cynthia or something.

[he punctuates that by lifting his hand to his own shoulder, casually wrapping his fingers around the top of Ryuji's wrist.]
oculusriffs: catrente @ tumblr (where making this)

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-19 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay. So that was your thought process behind the whole thing.

[got it. but defensively speaking, from the perspective of his original intent here, which is to toss a dry boyfriend in the pool, Dave's kind of gotten himself in a precarious situation. a ... kind of nice one, actually, if you remove the threat of getting turbo dunked back in the deep end.]

[though, if he doesn't move from his current position, it wouldn't take much more than a grand sweeping gesture to send him sprawling backwards, and Ryuji is certainly strong enough to pull that off.]

[but Dave, as they are both well aware, is a dirty cheater.]

[he grabs hold of both of Ryuji's arms, trying to hold them best as he can against Ryuji's sides in an attempt to prevent him from moving well enough to pull off whatever maneuver he's gunning for. and if that doesn't work? he's battening down the hatches and refusing to let go.]

[it's a friendly warning, too. you know. a last chance to back down before Dave really starts cheating.]
oculusriffs: catrente @ tumblr (things are cool here)

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-20 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
[sweet, Dave's strategy of "be annoying and persistent until Ryuji finally relents" paid off. it's something he's done plenty of times in the past, and honestly, it's probably an indication of endearment over anything.]

[and he volleys that smirk right back at Ryuji, grip around his arms tightening. there's no escaping, bro — they're officially in the shit now.]

[in the pool. about to take a trip to "in the pool." one of those.]


What? This is how I always give hugs. You ripping on my form?
oculusriffs: catrente @ tumblr (my science is off the charts)

[personal profile] oculusriffs 2018-09-20 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[you've been outmaneuvered again, my friend.]




[is exactly what Dave's hubris is saying. you know, the cocky confidence he's built up after winning all their previous, admittedly very goofy rounds of wrasslin'. though, for all he knows, Ryuji's got some last-ditch effort to break free and lob him over his shoulder, sending him back into the water and officially putting Ryuji on the Dave vs. Ryuji scoreboard. sports board?]


Yeah, all right. Let's hear 'em.
