phantomforgod). Also maybe Yuuki (

sleepingknight) and Rise (

tofus)?
What: After Yuya returns, Yuto decides to talk to Hajime.
When: April 6.
Where: Hajime's shrine.
Warnings: n/a

Yuto was glad beyond words when he had found Yuya. It was such a relief to see him again, to know that he was safe and sound. It didn't matter that Yuya had no memory of this place or that Yuto didn't understand half the things his twin was saying. Yuto was just happy the other was back. But after the events in the school Yuto begun to wonder what next. He couldn't leave Yuya all alone. The fear that he may loose him yet again had been plaguing his mind ever since. Especially seeing as Yuya had no shinki at all.

That was why he decided to speak with Hajime about this matter. He was hoping she would help him find the solution... Though he could already think of one. He would have to become Yuya's shinki. But just as much as he wanted to watch over Yuya he didn't want to leave Hajime either.

They both meant too much to him.

"Hajime." He called as he knocked on the door to Hajime's room. "I need to talk to you."

[Noooo, not the concerned look! Although Yuya's grateful Yuto doesn't seem to know his tell-tale signs.]

Huh? These? A-ahaha, it's just a little too bright out here for me. My temple is a bit...different.

[That should do for an explanation. His tiny island is naturally foggy, whereas the temple itself is underground.]

[That does not sound convincing, but Yuto doesn't say anything. He only nods after a moment.]

If you say so.

[Then his expression changes, the frown slowly vanishing from it.]

...In any case, I'm glad we'll be together again.

[Again he realizes just how much he's missed Yuya.]

[SAVED BY HIS POOR EXCUSES!]

Heheh, yeah. [He takes a step closer, looping his arm around Yuto's shoulders:] Now all we need to do is find out where Yugo and Yuri are. Then we'll have the team all together again!

[There's a pause though. Before they can think about the future, it's better to focus on the immediate.] By the way, is there any stuff we need to move. I can just teleport it all back to our place. And is there paperwork or something I need to fill out?

Yugo and Yuri... [He sighs a little bit.] You need to tell me something about those two, since I really don't remember anything.

[But that's not the only thing he wants to hear from Yuya.

At the question, Yuto he shakes his head lightly.]

Teleport? Ah, well, I don't really have much things to begin with. Maybe a few clothes, but that's it.

As for what you need to do - there's no paperwork. You just need to name me.

Of course! I'll even style my hair like them to give you a better idea of what they look like. [SINCE THEY'RE FACE TWINS AND ALL.

But wow, he gets to name Yuto? He'll try not to think of anything embarrassing.]

Should we go back in then? Clothes are still important.

I think that won't be necessary... [Just tell him about them. That's all he's asking for.

As for getting back for his things...]

I'll go back for them once we're done with this.

[He pauses. Okay, now that he thinks about it he probably should have explained about naming.]

... You do know that shinki have another name - a name that makes them change into their vessel form, right? I have one, too. So you just need to say it as if you're the one giving that name to me.

[But how will he know what they look like?! Aside from looking exactly like himself.]

Hmmmm...I'm usually good with on-the-spot decisions, but figuring out an important name is completely different. What was your name before?

[How many people can look like them?

At the question, Yuto looks at his arm. The symbol that used to be there is now gone. It vanished when Hajime released him. Yuto puts a hand over that place.]

...It was "Shouki". I had that name when Vector was my god and it was the same when I was with Hajime.

[He's silent for the next moment.]

It's an important name.

[Yuya grins:] Then you'll be Shouki with me as well.

[He really doesn't have to think on it too long, especially with Yuto's comment. If it's an important name, he should have said so to begin with. But again, this is Yuto. He doesn't exactly put out his interests on a regular basis. Good thing he has Yuya to watch out for him.]

I wouldn't want to get rid of an important name anyways.

[He looks at Yuya and after a moment smiles in gratitude.]

Thank you.

[Then he glances at his arm again and sighs a little.]

And I'm sorry for trying to rush you... It just feels strange, you know? To not have a name, when I had it written on my arm for so long.

[He attempts to smile again, but the smile doesn't quite reach his eyes.

Right now, without a name he feels like he doesn't belong anywhere anymore. It's a stupid feeling and he knows about it. After all it's already decided that his place is with Yuya.

Yuto turns around.]

...Maybe I really should get my things now.

[All this melancholy is starting to bug him, but Yuya still lets out an amused snort:]

Nah, you're not rushing me. You worry too much-- and stop being so formal! It feels weird. [It just reminds him that he's almost like a stranger to Yuto. Their experiences don't match up.]

Go get 'em, and I'll name you properly once we get to my place.

[Yuto nods hesitantly. Was he really being that formal? He didn't realize it. But it's true that right now... it's different. Almost like he's met a different Yuya.

...He quickly discards that thought and turns around.]

I'll be back soon.

[And with that he's gone for some time. When he's back he's holding a small bag containing his belongings. There doesn't have too much possessions, but when it comes to thing, he's never felt like he's needed anything in particular anyway.]

[Even if Yuto takes all the time in the world, Yuya stays where he is. At least he has his duel disk and phone to look through while waiting, plus wiping his eyes and taking off his goggles. And seeing Yuto's bag when he returns, Yuya just chuckles:]

That's so like you. [Only keeping to the bare minimum.

He steps close now, taking Yuto's hand in his own with a bright smile.]

Yuto, I name you Shouki. I'm glad to have you by my side again.

["That's so like you".

Hearing that sentence makes a very small smile appear on his face. Now that he thinks about it Yuya knows him much better than Yuto knows himself.

And then Yuya takes his hand and says those words. Yuto wants to squeeze Yuya's hand and tell him that he's glad to be back, but before he ever gets the chance there's a bright light and a moment later Yuto's human form is replaced with that of a black dragon.

Yuto looks down at the other, wondering about his reaction to this.]
