VIDEO ► no "good deed" goes unpunished

Yosuke Hanamura shared a video.
02/15 near Recolle High


[ The first thing that should be obvious to anyone viewing this video is that Yosuke Hanamura ([personal profile] youraffection) is not alone. The second thing may be that he is having a very bad day. It’s a shot of him literally tied to the bottom of the school’s flagpole with several layers of rope that Eleanor Lamb ([personal profile] notyourutopian) has just finished tying off. Standing off to one side is Yukiko Amagi ([personal profile] burningblossoms), holding up a small sign stating: 'Local Boy learns a valuable lesson about consent.' She doesn’t say anything yet, but there’s a grimly satisfied look on her face as she looks at the camera.

Yosuke groans, trying to duck his head and hide his face. But let’s be real, who else would it be?

Eleanor gives the ropes a firm jerk once the knot is tied, to make sure they won't come loose without help, and then steps a bit to the side, her hands on her hips as she not-quite-glares at Yosuke. ]


So, Yosuke. What have we learned today?

[ Yosuke grimaces, what’s left of his dignity probably properly trampled under their shoes by now. ] Are you kidding me...?

[ Eleanor glances from him to the camera to Yukiko, then back to him. ] The sooner you answer, the sooner this is all over.

[ Yosuke sighs, hanging his head. ] "Ask first"...

Mmhmm. Ask first because...?

Because if I don’t someone’s going to steal my phone and take embarrassing videos--hey, wait--are you live streaming???

That's not it. And don't worry about the camera, just answer the question.

Oh man, this is... [ Grumble, grumble. ] "Ask first because..."

[ Yukiko steps closer, eyes fixed on Yosuke’s as he hesitates, her mouth set in a dangerous line. ] Because why. No mumbling.

[ Boy is Yukiko scary when she’s...Yukiko. ] B-Because no girl should ever be forced into an awkward situation, romantic or otherwise??

Good! Perfect, [ Eleanor claps her hands together. ] I think this was a good learning experience for everyone, right? Okay. I guess we're done?

Yep! Time to head home. Wanna hit the bakery on the way, Eleanor?

W-Wait a sec! What about me!?

That sounds great, Yukiko. We've certainly earned it, [ Eleanor completely ignores Yosuke, instead moving to pick up her backpack from where she set it nearby. ] Don't forget to leave the sign.

Great. I’ll drive then. Let’s go. [ Yukiko sets the sign down by Yosuke's feet and gets her own bag before the two girls disappear off-screen.

The sound of footsteps provides a telling beat to Yosuke’s subsequent shouts after them. And, naturally, he’s left alone with his shame. If alone also means whoever is watching this. ]


You’ve gotta be kidding me...!

[ But then, suddenly, a possible savior arrives. A Karkat Vantas ([personal profile] alienates) approaches Yosuke and stops, right in front of the camera. He looks backwards, stares directly at the screen for a moment, before just shrugging to pull out his own phone to take a picture of Yosuke. He then walks over, pats the guy on the shoulder, and just fucking leaves. Just kidding. Yosuke is still boned. ]

[Yup, he really needs to work on his advice on love. Regardless, he's not the type to stop encouraging this poor man.]

Augustine Sauveterre All I can say is that don't focus on the negative right now, okay?
Augustine Sauveterre Regardless, I wish you luck.

we're reaching levels of Done that shouldn't be possible

[You know what's sad? THE FACT THAT HE'S STILL UNTYING THIS STUPID KNOT. Yeesh. Girl scouts must not fuck around.

Regardless, he's just about done now.]


To some degree, but they were in the wrong, too. Just tying another student to a flagpole can be seen as pretty serious bullying, but the sign was basically gasoline on an already open flame. If someone else found you, this could have been really bad.

[It's not like Gabriel wants to scare Yosuke or anything, but it's something he feels the teen needs to know.]

...there. [He pulls the rope away and begins coiling it up.]

You'll never know how the tides of fate will move. Besides, taking a little break here and there for social activities wouldn't hurt.

So everyone keeps insisting.
My parents won't let me do my double major until sophomore year because of that.
And I understand but.

I like being busy.
And social life is hard.

he loves them anyway, probably

Not just yet, I'm afraid.

[Once he coils up the rope, he puts it around one of his shoulders. His eyes lock onto Yosuke's, and there's a bit of a "you know what's coming" expression to his face.]

I need names, Hanamura. Who tied you up?

Souji Narukami But it's true
Souji Narukami Listen, Yosuke, we might be able to make it big here
Souji Narukami If we can pitch the idea to Amazon before anyone else, we could be leaders of Hermit Prime
Souji Narukami And I wouldn't want any other business partner than you

I see.

That does sound hard. Well, then don't try to push yourself too hard. I'll be a university student next year so if we're at the same school, maybe I'll see you around. We can take it easy now and then with a lunch break.
