sekky_chan, a ridiculously late birthday present. I failed so hard, I’m so sorry. Anyway, this is for you and I promise you, I will give you something longer..later. OTL
Thankspinkeuphoria1, for driving me mad by constantly reminding me of deadlines
Summary: It’s a strange, also kind of kinky, game that they are playing.
--
Junno hands Koki a box with a bunch of folded papers.
“You’re Shikamaru tonight,” Junno announces, reading from the paper Koki has just picked from the box. He’s grinning from ear to ear in a way that would have easily pissed anyone (ie, Koki, Kame, Jin, Ueda and possibly Nakamaru) off. Koki suspects that they have all developed some sort of medically unheard tolerance towards him.
“And you will be?” Koki asks.
Junno takes the piece of paper from Koki’s hand and crumples it, then aims at a dustbin approximately 3 foot away.
“Bingo!” he shouts as the crumbled paper falls elegantly into the bin. “I’ll leave the suspense hanging for tonight.”
And just like that, he leaves.
--
There’s a chat window popping up and it’s Junno.
‘Ready?’
Koki types back, ‘yea’.
Junno is Temari for that night.
--
It’s a strange, also kind of kinky, game that they are playing, Koki thinks.
Koki thinks that it started after the cosplays he had to do for concerts and Junno complained about how he would like to try some too. He didn’t find anything that allowed him to cosplay anonymously, much to his disappointment and Koki’s exasperation – after all, given their occupation, anonymity is but a treasure best kept hidden. Junno didn’t give up though; he later suggested roleplaying and hounded his bandmates one after another to join him. Obviously, Kame declined, because he didn’t get it. Jin declined too, saying that he had never been that interested in those “otaku stuff”. Nakamaru didn’t say no, but Junno took his non-agreement as a complete rejection. Ueda was, well, Ueda and nothing Junno suggested had “boxing” in it. In the end, Koki complied, partly just to shut him up, to go along with whatever “otaku stuff” Junno had suggested.
Junno invited Koki to join this online roleplaying community and he had his internet persona execute an elaborated (“and platonic!” Koki had insisted to a doubtful-looking Jin) courtship towards Koki. It included a love letter detailing his crush on Koki’s roleplaying prowess and his absolute understanding of the characters he was playing (it was mostly Junno’s doing; he often gave Koki instructions via those chat windows), virtual gifts (there were internet hugs, electronic flowers, etc), invitations to meet in real (which of course, was something he didn’t really have to do), and willingness to listen to whatever problems Koki was having (“what a troll,” Kame said when Koki told him about Junno’s very intricately-planned internet courting schemes).
It’s not like he regrets it, because roleplaying is surprisingly fun. Junno is still under the impression that Koki hates it though.
Koki’s not planning to change that anytime soon.
--
Junno picks the paper today and he’s Naruto.
Koki wavers between the possible choices of Hinata, Sakura and Karin. He stares at his laptop screen thoughtfully.
In the end, he chooses Sasuke.
‘What?’ Junno types on the chat window.
‘Why not?’ Koki types back.
‘I’m surprised.’
‘It’s a little disgusting, but it’s not like we have never done it before,’ Koki types, referring to the many skits they did on their radio show.
‘Yes, but it still shocked me,’ Junno’s message says.
Before Koki can reply, another line comes up.
‘It’s really nice to be surprised.’
--
Nakamaru likes role-playing too, only he’s not interested in romance-centric ones.
“Not everything we do is supposed to be romantic,” Koki says.
“But wouldn’t that be creepy, if say, you,” Nakamaru grimaces, “get a little deeper than romantic?”
That’s true, Koki thinks, but he’s not going to overanalyse it at the moment. “Don’t make me challenge Kame-chan and Uepomu into making you do it.”
“Do what?” Kame immediately says, peeking up from the newspaper he’s reading.
“Nothing, just that you should-“ Koki’s interrupted by Nakamaru’s punch in the guts.
--
Junno has just challenged Koki to something rather unbelievable, causing him to reach a halt in the game. He types a message on the chatbox.
‘What do you mean by that?’
Junno gives him a laughing emoticon, followed by a short ‘exactly what it is’.
A few seconds later, there’s another message on the screen.
‘Just do it.’
--
Koki finds Jin unshaven and unkempt as he knocks at his apartment door.
“Spare me that look,” Jin drawls lazily. “They want me to work on new songs.”
“Here? In Japan?”
“They want Japanese songs,” Jin says. “Might need your help.”
Koki invites himself in and opens the fridge to get a can of beer, then settles on Jin’s couch. He almost ends up sitting on one of Jin’s (many) oversized jeans. He almost feels like taking a jab at Jin’s rapidly deteriorating Japanese (that’s apparently inversely proportional to his acquisition of American slangs) until he sees the stack of papers underneath an electronic dictionary.
“Dude, you need a housekeeper,” Koki says, popping the can open. “Or a wife.”
“What are you doing here anyway?” Jin asks, wiping his face furiously with a wet towel.
Koki tells him everything that happened the night before.
Jin scratches his head, then says, “Koki, did you just tell me that you had cyber sex-“
Koki chokes on his beer.
“-with Taguchi?”
He spits his mouthful of beer all over the pair of jeans he almost sat on.
--
When he reaches their dressing room the next day, Junno’s too busy playing with his iPad2.
“Oh Koki, come here, look at this application!”
Koki goes to sit down beside him, but stops when he observes something.
“You changed your hair,” he says.
Junno looks up at Koki. “Yea,” he answers and runs his hand along the newly-shaven side of his head, “over here, do you like it?”
Something strange is reacting inside Koki, causing his stomach to turn itself upside down, and he thinks it’s a residual effect from ..whatever they did a few nights before.
--
Kame’s just as useless as Jin, Koki discovers with great disappointment.
“It’s not real when you’re the only one fapping to it,” he says, with the tone of the biggest, most insufferable know-it-all ever.
--
Junno whines royally when he comes to work and forgets his iPad2.
“I need to show you this application I downloaded, it’s AWESOME. It translates whatever I say in KANSAI-BEN and regurgitates it back to me, in a foreign language,” he gushes. “I tried almost every Kansai-exclusive words I know and IT REALLY WORKED.”
Koki nods in compliance and adds a few comments here and there, not really listening. Maybe he should buy an iPad for himself, so that at least whatever Junno says will sound less like an alien language. Resistance might be futile after all.
“Junno?” Koki calls. “Do you want to pick something from the box today?”
Junno looks at him. “Oh, I have an er, let me think-“
At that moment when Junno’s talking, Koki realises something that he has been too cowardly to admit to himself before – that Junno’s really attractive. There’s something about the jawline that draws his attention, and there’s something about his skin. Thing is, Koki doesn’t know why he is even staring, other than the fact that he probably has been talking about him far too often than it is healthy and he thinks that it’s affecting his judgment. For some reason, he’s beginning to feel like kissing him.
It’s the residual effect, he reminds himself. Just the stupid residual effect from..whatever.
“I think I can clear out my schedule tonight,” Junno finally says, snapping Koki back to the reality with the Junno that he’s not supposed to find attractive.
“Alright, tonight is on!”
He lets Koki pick something from the box and to his surprise, the name on the paper is pretty familiar.
“Taguchi Junnosuke?” Koki reads, but Junno’s gone.
“Gotta get my iPad, see you!”
--
Maybe he should troll Junno tonight.
Therefore, instead of Taguchi Junnosuke, he turns into Bido Granmanie.
‘What the hell?’ Junno types on the chat window.
‘What are you going to do?’ Koki challenges.
The chat window is blank for a few minutes, then a sentence appears on the roleplay window.
‘Kobayashi Akira.’
It’s Koki’s turn to type ‘What the hell’ on the chat window.
‘I pay attention to everything you do, you know.’
Koki’s still too amused to type anything else, so he merely asks, ‘including the divorce drama?’.
‘Especially the divorce drama.’
Junno might be on to something, Koki thinks.
--
“You’re so gay for him,” Kame concludes. Koki hasn’t been expecting Kame to be this useless when it comes to..matters of the heart.
“Am not,” Koki denies, regretting his decision more and more as the conversation drags longer. He tries to avoid including Nakamaru’s cryptic warning earlier, about it being creepy when it turns a little deeper than romantic, and he thinks that he’s been putting a lot a lot of..emotions in this game of theirs.
Maybe they should stop, he decides.
“Don’t stop now though,” Kame says. “You know what they say about letting time dictate your feelings? You should totally do that.”
“And that’s working well for you?”
Kame looks at Nakamaru and Ueda, both looking like they are working on a song with Nakamaru tapping his fingers on the table and Ueda tuning his guitar and testing the chords.
“Maybe,” he says, winking at Koki.
--
Junno remembers to bring his iPad2 to work and he looks positively smug about being able to show Koki his awesome applications (in his words, not Koki’s).
“You see here,” he starts and he doesn’t stop.
Not until Koki shoves a piece of paper into his pocket. Junno stops talking abruptly and unfolds the paper, but Koki stops him.
“Don’t open it until tonight,” he says. “It’s a date, ok?”
Junno looks at Koki like he has grown horns. “That’s really ..surprising.”
“I thought you liked surprises.”
--
Taguchi Junnosuke is Taguchi Junnosuke that day.
‘And who will you be?’ Junno types in the chat window.
Koki types the one and only name he wants to be at the moment, the one and only person he wants to be in order to find the answer he needs.
‘Tanaka Koki.’

Extra notes:
1. Shikamaru is a character from the manga/anime Naruto. He has quite some implied near-romantic interactions with Temari, a very tsundere girl.
2. Naruto is a character from the manga/anime, er, Naruto. He has quite some gay moments with Sasuke. Naruto’s list of love interests in the series includes Hinata, Sakura, Karin, and depending on who you ask, Sasuke.
3. Bido Granmanie is a character from the drama Yuukan Club, which Junno starred with Jin. Kobayashi Akira is Koki’s character from the drama SP Rikon Syndrome, which he is famous for portraying a gay, as in homosexual, character.
