all strung up (posted in the early evening)

Yuri Plisetsky shared a photo. 2/3 near Recollé

"Local area peacock spotted downtown all tangled up in a Founder's Day Festivitrap, a casualty of the ongoing Great Red String fiasco." Between this and the giant chicken-horses, the birdwatching's been great today

[LOOK that's a reasonable reaction to... this...]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu < 200 is still 200 too many!
Kiyomitsu Kashuu i don't want to be the face of relatability, anyway
Kiyomitsu Kashuu if i'm going to be the face of fashion i can't have stupid stuff like this floating around!

[catsudon]

( but is it really

now here he is thinking about Peacock's Heels Thing and wondering: )

Yuri Plisetsky You want to work in the fashion industry?

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu obviously (-。-
Kiyomitsu Kashuu and it's just as important for designers to have a good image!

[Fitting concerns for this punk, probably. But look! This is why he cares about heels so dang much!]

[catsudon]

( it does at least explain that, which... makes it more sensible in Yuri's head. go figure. )

Yuri Plisetsky Anya says you look good if it's any consolation
Yuri Plisetsky Or your clothes do
Yuri Plisetsky Which would be the important point
Yuri Plisetsky Also what the hell is supposed to be obvious about that??

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu my clothes always look good
Kiyomitsu Kashuu but pass on my thanks anyway

[WHY DOESN'T HE JUST TELL HER HIMSELF.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu anyway, what about it isn't obvious?

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky You tell her, I'm not your messenger boy

Yuri Plisetsky Anyway
Yuri Plisetsky wanting to work in the fashion industry
Yuri Plisetsky how is that supposed to be "obvious"

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu ugh fine
Kiyomitsu Kashuu but i basically told you that i worked in the fashion industry earlier you know
Kiyomitsu Kashuu my clothes shine on the stage and i shine off of it!

[Obviously Yuri was supposed to pick up on his profession from that! Obviously!!]

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky You said you like people staring at you
Yuri Plisetsky Who the hell is going to go "oh he wants to work in fashion" from that

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu not you, apparently ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌
Kiyomitsu Kashuu but that's what i study!
Kiyomitsu Kashuu and my work is definitely top notch

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky Peacock
Yuri Plisetsky This is officially more than I ever cared to learn about you
Yuri Plisetsky So you study fashion at one of the universities in town?

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu you're the one who asked!
Kiyomitsu Kashuu and i have a name, you know
Kiyomitsu Kashuu i know you can see it, it's right there
Kiyomitsu Kashuu but yeah i'm going to uni here for fashion and design
Kiyomitsu Kashuu i just got back so it's my first year, but i've been studying for longer

[Yuri asks the questions, but Kashuu goes into Detail...]

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky Where were you before then?

( note how he ignores absolutely everything else since yes, he sees your name, no, he doesn't care, and he guesses it's kind of interesting what paths people take or something

that or fashion is similar enough to make him think about costume design and give him extremely vague ideas about student projects, hmm )

[sharplydressed]

[HECKIN RUDE just wait until he comes up with an awful nickname of his own.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu japan
Kiyomitsu Kashuu i went back for a while to study over there

[catsudon]

( look, strut your stuff like a peacock, get called a peacock??? ironically he's not calling you a nut even now that he knows your name, though it's only a matter of time, likely tied in with asking if you're... nuts... )

Yuri Plisetsky Huh
Yuri Plisetsky Was that your first time there?

[sharplydressed]

[The day will come and Kashuu will age 100 years.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu nope! i was born there (￣◇￣)b
Kiyomitsu Kashuu moved here when i was pretty young, though

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky Huh, so you're foreign born too
Yuri Plisetsky How old were you when you got here?
Yuri Plisetsky Have you just lived in this city?

( go figure he's actually interested in all the salient details that aren't related to basically anything he'd been talking about before )

[sharplydressed]

[Smalltalk conversations are actually a great way to distract him from remembering that he still needs to Destroy Yuri for posting this picture. He is genuinely curious, too.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu yep! seems like a lot of us are, huh?
Kiyomitsu Kashuu i was about 6 or 7 when i first moved here, i think
Kiyomitsu Kashuu recolle's the only city i've lived in but i've visited new york before too
Kiyomitsu Kashuu what about you?

[catsudon]

( yuri shouldn't be picking fights with his elders anyway, this is for the best. and. both of them being genuinely interested. go figure. )

Yuri Plisetsky I dunno I haven't kept count of who is or isn't
Yuri Plisetsky I was 5 or 6 when we moved to the States from Russia
Yuri Plisetsky I only moved out here last year

[sharplydressed]

[Miracle of miracles. Yuri will escape... for now. In the face of some weird bonding over being non-native born, apparently.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu wow really? i mean i don't either, it's just easy to notice
Kiyomitsu Kashuu what'd you come here for?
Kiyomitsu Kashuu this city i mean, since you moved kind of recently and all

[catsudon]

( bonding over foreign lives??? )

Yuri Plisetsky Dance

( much explanation very thorough )

[sharplydressed]

[WHAT A PUNK. But very to-the-point, he can appreciate it.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu really?
Kiyomitsu Kashuu what kind?

[catsudon]

Yuri Plisetsky I started out in ballet
Yuri Plisetsky But I've expanded since, even if ballet is still my primary school at the moment

[sharplydressed]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu ballet huh?
Kiyomitsu Kashuu you must have super strong legs

[He's almost envious?? If his legs were stronger, he could probably wear heels for even more than eight hours. When will bionic legs be a thing, that's what he wants to know.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu that's pretty cool, though! i think you're the first dancer i've met

[catsudon]

( look he already can't believe Anya and her heels, don't do this, Kashuu, don't )

Yuri Plisetsky Yes, along with everything else?
Yuri Plisetsky Kind of necessary
Yuri Plisetsky Anyway that makes no sense to me when Anya's up there telling me to compliment you like you know each other
Yuri Plisetsky She's been dancing for years
Yuri Plisetsky Has she even bothered mentioning it?

( tbh sometimes he thinks no. no, Anya wouldn't. because she's just that unambitious with her dancing. SHE'S GOOD WHEN SHE BOTHERS TRYING this drives him up a wall??? )

[sharplydressed]

[TOO LATE he's already aiming for the heel gold.]

Kiyomitsu Kashuu yeah i've known her for a while!
Kiyomitsu Kashuu and i know she dances, but i mean career dancers!
Kiyomitsu Kashuu that's what you are, right?
Kiyomitsu Kashuu if you came all the way here for it and everything (・о・)
