[Kaede's window-shopping when she gets the familiar bzzt-bzzt vibration in her ear she's set for when Shuichi is texting her. One hand to her earring to check the message, and her eyes light up at the first part. She's already composing a mental Yeah, let's!! when the second half pops into view, and she pauses mid-step. A native almost walks into her, and she just distractedly bows an apology as she ducks against a wall to get out of the way.

Moving in with Shuichi is a big step, to be sure. On the surface, having Kokichi move in too makes it less of a romantic, next-step-in-their-relationship kind of thing, and more of a friendship thing. Or a money-saving trick, or something other than just moving in to be closer to her boyfriend.

But if Shuichi was worried about giving up his privacy with just Kaede, he should be even more worried if Kokichi is going to be there, too. She's thought about that too, since then, and had almost been relieved that Shuichi hadn't brought it up immediately. Because if they're going to be supporting Kokichi, then that means they have to do, um, stuff in the same space where Kokichi will be living, and that seems kind of awkward?]

Do you think Oma-kun would want to live with us? ( ｡･-･｡｀) [she texts back, a little cautiously.]

I don't know, but we need to at least ask him.
Regardless of his answer though, I'd still like to move in with you.

Did something happen?

[Not "should" ask him, but "need to" ask him. She frowns, leaning against the wall and closing her eyes as if that'll help her focus on the text-based conversation more easily.]

I mean, don't misunderstand! I really, really want to move in with you, and it would be fun to live with Oma-kun, too, [the nicest word to pick for that goblin antagonist, really,] I'm just surprised you're bringing it up.

Well I've actually been thinking about it since our conversation the other day.
Because if sleeping next to me helps with your nightmares, we should...start doing that every night, right? And if we're going to do that, we may as well move somewhere with more room.

[Wow it's so much easier to have this conversation over text than in person. Fortunately, he doesn't really stutter when he thinks, as opposed to when he speaks. Though his cheeks are still flushed pink, just as they would be if they were face to face right now.]

He came over to apologize for what he did in the killing game again.
I'm still not sure what prompted it but...he really needs us.

[Kaede would really, really rather have this conversation face-to-face! She wants to see what Shuichi's face looks like, well, all the time, but moreso now when it's something important. But if Shuichi thinks Kokichi needs them, then-]

Well, it's settled then! ᕙ( * •̀ ᗜ •́ * )ᕗ

[It's something she wanted for a while now anyway, and if it'll help out their friend, who is she to be selfish and try to negotiate that it only be her and Shuichi? Especially when she'd proposed adding Kokichi in the first place.]

We should get somewhere with three bedrooms! So if you want time to yourself, you still have your own space! [For licking dust.] So you don't get distracted by my piano playing. Unless you want to be. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧♪

...Does this mean he's going to want to sleep next to us EVERY night...? <(¬＿¬<)

[...Okay, but she's allowed to be a little bit selfish, right?]

:)
I like listening to your piano playing. But that sounds like a good idea, even if he doesn't want to.
Then we'd have a guest room and a music room.

[Since he's just...assuming the third bedroom will basically just be a piano room. Thank you for keeping his dust-licking needs in mind, Kaede. He really appreciates it.]

Um...I don't know. I mean...I would hope he'd realize that we need some nights to ourselves?
But I'll be sure to mention that once he wakes up and I can talk to him about this.
Don't worry.

[Yes, Kaede, it is okay to be a little bit selfish, at least about this.]

:) ♡✧˖°ˈ·*ε-(๑˃́ε˂̀๑ )

[Her emoji is blowing a kiss at yours. That's how much she likes it.]

A music room!!!!!!!!!!! Can I use VR to decorate it?! You need more decorations in your space, anyway.

But... thank you, Shuichi-kun. It's probably hard for you to try to balance stuff with the two of us, right? I'm really excited! I'm gonna start looking for places right away!!

♥

Sure.

It's not really that hard though, I don't mind.
I'll meet you later to help you look. Oma-kun fell asleep in my room so it might be a while before I can go anywhere. I'm not sure how long he'll be out...

If we live together, we'll have to make sure he goes to bed... aaah Shuichi-kun!! I'm not ready to be a mom!! ໒( ∗ ＞ 3 ＜ ∗ )७

I wish Tojo-san were here. She'd know what to do for him.

You say that like he'd actually listen to either of us.

[Why do you think he resorted to drugging him last time?]

I think he's gotten better about going to sleep though. Maybe not every night but he's obviously not staying up until he crashes anymore.

I wish Tojo-san was here too but...I don't think she could help very much with this particular issue.
He didn't listen to her, either.

[Among...other issues...the two of them had.]

Edited 2018-03-11 01:36 (UTC)

Mmmm... I guess that's good, at least.

I wish he'd listen to us more, though. Oh, maybe I can ask Tsumiki-san to give him a doctor's note to tell him to sleep every night!! That could work!

Doubt it.
But, really, as long as he doesn't go back to avoiding sleep EVERY night, then it's fine. You don't need to worry this much.

If you say so...

Alright!! (･´з`･)ゞ I'll start browsing for places and... checking them out? I've never had to get my own place before, do you think they'll let us look around before we move anywhere?

I would hope so.
At the very least, they'll probably have hologram floorplans or something.
Virtual reality demo "houses".
How else would we know if we were moving to a place with enough space?

Oh cool!!!! I wanna walk around a virtual mansion!! Or a palace!!

Well, if it turns out that that's not what they do for housing tours, we could always rent a VR room for something like that.
You could be a princess for a day.

Yes!! Let's do it!!

Would you want to be my prince or my servant? (*・∀-)☆

[Woah there.]

Um.
Whichever you want me to be.

Shuichi-kun... ٩(๑`^´๑)۶

[Imagine the pouting Kaede noises, Shuichi. Imagine them.]

Don't just go along with what I want to do ALL the time!! Which would be more fun for you?

[Oh, he can hear them. It makes him wilt a little just imagining them.]

Sorry...

I just...I always have the most fun doing whatever makes you happiest.
That's why I go along with what you want to do so often.

[God, he needs to tell this to Kokichi so maybe Kokichi will get off her back about considering his feelings!!]

Hmmm.... well, we'll see when we get there, I guess!!

Don't worry, I like that passive side of yours. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧♪ But don't be afraid to be more assertive either, okay?
