Two weeks until the game begins. You sure you want to wait that long? There's a perfectly good meme there if you want to have a bit of fun~♥

[Tilts his head.]

All right, suit yourself. You're gonna be awfully pent up by the time it starts, though, but I suppose that's what you're hoping for?

[kudakero]

I've always thought eagerness suited you.

[hyapponzashi]

There's aaaaall sorts of people, just waiting to be played with.

I'm allowed to look forward to it, aren't I, Aizen-taichou?

[kudakero]

['Allowed': the choice of word has one corner of Aizen's gentle smile quirking up into what might be so easily read as amusement.]

Of course you're allowed.

I should encourage you to socialize more, really. [Another small, impenetrable smile.]

[hyapponzashi]

Really?

[Gin gives a little bloodthirsty smile. He's trying to figure out if Aizen really means socialize of it that's some kind of code word for something else.]

You sure you're all good with me wondering around on my lonesome?

[He's just an innocent young boy, after all. Accidents might happen. Probably to other people, though.]

[kudakero]

[Eff innocent young boys. Aizen in any case, reaches forward and ruffles Gin's hair affectionately, fingers soft against the silver strands.]

Certainly.

[And then the slightest shift in pressure, the most imperceptible change in the quality of that weight on Gin's head.]

I'm sure you can take care of yourself. You'll make sure I won't need to look for a replacement, won't you, Gin?

[hyapponzashi]

[Erp. Gin's expression doesn't actually change, but his posture goes from languid ease to perfect stillness. Aizen can probably feel the tension in Gin's spine from the hand resting on his head.]

I'll be very careful.

[Said coyly, but Gin's not about to misbehave in the face of that almost-order. He'll be the most polite, respectable little shota in existence.

Unless he sees something really fun to break. Then he's sure he can convince Aizen to forgive him.]

Just thought you might be lonely without me to keep you company.

[kudakero]

[And it's with the most gentle of fingers threading through hair that Aizen withdraws his hand; whatever pleasure he might have drawn from the boy's tense posture is completely shrouded in his warm smile, his approving nod.]

I trust you'll make me proud.

[Another interesting word, trust; Aizen paces forward slightly, confident that Gin will be following perfectly at his heels.]

What makes you think I'll be lonely? [A blandly quizzical arch of the eyebrow, one glance tossed over his shoulder.] I might be socializing as well, after all.

[hasnomentor]

You're actually excited to go there ese? I don't know whose worse, you or my mun.

[hyapponzashi]

Oh it's definitely me.

[WIDE, WOLFISH SMIRK, even though his tone is light and jesting. He might just be joking. Maybe.]

Just seems to me like the place is full of possibilities. Doesn't that sound like fun to you?

[hasnomentor]

Depends on what the possibilities are, ese. I'm still not too sure.

[And that smirk is making him even less sure.]

Guess it doesn't matter though. Mun already got the app approved so I'm going no matter what I want.

[hyapponzashi]

Ahh, so we're both in the same boat. Guess we'd better make friends, then.

[Gin's smile is so thoroughly opaque you might believe he has no idea at all how inappropriate it is to invade someone's personal space and take a clinging possession of their arm. It's also a little difficult to tell if he's aware of exactly how his offer is going to be construed in light of Ariel's directives. Does he want to be friends, or friends?]

I'm Gin. You?

[hasnomentor]

[If he hadn't already met Bart and his random spazy behavior, he might think the arm grab was weirder than he's currently thinking it is. He looks down at Gin for a moment and wonders just what kind of friends this guy wants to be. Especially in a city like Ariel.]

Jaime Reyes. And friends wouldn't be a bad thing ese. [People are assumed innocent until proven guilty, or in this case pervy, right?]

[hyapponzashi]

[Unfortunately, when you give Gin an inch, he'll take you for everything you've got. He insinuates himself right under Jamie's arm and sneaks a hand around his waist. His hand may be threatening to rest somewhere in the vicinity of Jamie's ass. He's a bit new to this sort of approach, but already he can see the appeal of bypassing the pleasantries and jumping right into business.]

So as a friend, you can show me how things are supposed to work, right? Because I'm completely lost.

[He isn't, really, but he feigns an appropriately pitiful expression. You wouldn't leave your new friend at the mercy of this city, right Jamie?]

[daimondai]

[He looks confused and a little put off by someone his age being so eager to go to one of 'those' games]

Makes you sound kinda pervy, ya know?

[hyapponzashi]

[Gin just laughs because...well. Maybe he isn't yet, but he certainly thinks he could learn to be.]

Are you sure you're not just shy? A day in this city could cure that, you know. Can't walk down the street without tripping over people with their clothes off.

[daimondai]

Naked isn't a big deal I guess. I just don't really care. [Even though he is kinda blushing a little]

[hyapponzashi]

Well naked isn't the only thing they are.

[He sidles right up to Masaru and wraps a companionable arm around his shoulder, whispering in his ear because, after all, this is all sordid wickedness that shouldn't be spoken about out loud.]

You should see the kinds of things they're willing to do right there where everyone can see. And all the stores sell...

[Gin doesn't actually know the names of most of the things in them, but he mimes something pretty obscene that's probably worse than anything he could have said.]

If you like, I could try bring you back a souvenir.

[daimondai]

[Masaru's face is rather hilarious. He's not body shy, so the personal space invasion isn't that big of a deal. But he's a modern 14 year old- he's read enough hentai to know what Gin is talking about.]

Why the hell would people want to do that outside?! And no, I don't need a souvenir!

[hyapponzashi]

Maybe it's more refreshing that way?

[Gin is just so amused at Masaru's reactions. He doesn't have the benefit of a modern education on the subject of sex, but ten minutes in Ariel was a pretty eye-opening experience and he's not easily rattled in the first place.]

How about it? Between the two of us, we can try it and see what all the fuss is about.

[thepierrot]

A kid like you... in a place like that?

You're kidding, right?

[hyapponzashi]

Nope~♥

Why so surprised? There's plenty of people who like kids my age.

[He bets you're one of them, Adachi. No? Well, maybe he can change your mind.]

[thepierrot]

Yeah, and they call those people sick freaks.

[You'd bet wrong Gin!]

[hyapponzashi]

R-really?

[Suddenly Gin looks wide-eyed, utterly shocked.

...Not really, of course, but he's faking it pretty accurately.]

But they told me in orientation that there wasn't anything wrong with it...

[thepierrot]

Well, that orientation is all kinds of crooked! [crosses his arms in front of him all authority-like!!]

Plus, adults like to like to kids so they can take advantage of them. You shouldn't trust what adults say, most of them are all twisted and stuff.

KASDHASD PROTECT ME, DETECTIVE ADACHI

[hyapponzashi]

But...

But...

You're an adult.

[Suspicious stare, Adachi! How dare you try and take advantage of his innocent like that, telling him sex is a bad thing...

...O Wait.]
