So.

Yuya, Yuto.

I'm finally free from an endless series of marriage interviews I keep getting scammed into.

And the last 5 were the same guy, who will remain Neo New Nameless.

So, are you two free with your Pro Dueling schedules? (Where are you guys at, I keep getting sucked into an endless wave of marriage interviews, business consultancies and archaeological Zoom meetings)

What's up with you two anyways.

And if anyone else needs me, hit me up.

(god i hope the one guy i will bother marrying gets back to me)

Being forced into marriage interviews makes it sound like being in a relationship is some kind of big business deal or something, and not something you want or choose to do.

Anyway, I'm sure we can both find time where we're free! We're both still part-time duelists at the Super Junior League currently. We're leaving space for doing other things at the moment while we have the luxury to. Like Yuto with his writing thing.
I sometimes help out with You Show Duel School and also do some volunteering in SAI's Spirit House now and then.

For me, it's not something I can choose to, and my brother keeps pushing off the question, but Shareholders are getting super antsy that the Akaba siblings have no marriage to ensure the company remains in family hands.

How's his writing going and your helping out.

Yeaaaah, I guess it's different when you own a big family run company.
As long as you don't end up in some super unhappy marriage or anything and you at least are able to be with someone you actually like, that's the important thing.

Oh! His writing is going fine, as far as I'm aware. He still does writing for Weekly Domino News, though I think he does some freelance stuff here and there too.
The volunteering is going well! I enjoy being around the Duel Spirits there!

I have someone I think it'll work out with but he keeps disappearing for months on end for reasons I have not managed to figure out.

Oh, I thought he was trying to be Lord Byron or something and write weird esoteric poetry and gothic horror.
Ah. I assume the small ones?

Disappearing for months sounds like a huge red flag to me.

Yeah, mostly the small ones!
And I think he writes a variety of things. He tends to be kinda secretive about his personal writing stuff though.

Is it?

Nice.

... Huh.

So, want to try and figure out what's up with that weird bunker?

I dunno. Disappearing for months and you not knowing why or where they are seems kinda sus to me.

And sure! I'd be up for that and I'm sure Yuto will be too!

I think I did so like for a year once, maybe I'm used to it being rich and what not.

Okay. Just give me a heads up when you two are ready. I will literally find a way out of obligations when I need.

Alright, we'll work out when we're both free and get back to you!

Right.

*So hey, Serena, whatever reason you may have chosen to do so, you might've stepped out in the evening to get some fresh air. It's been mild out enough.

You see a motorcycle speed by you on the road. Before taking a sharp turn to come right back, stopping on a dime in front of you, as the driver flips up the visor, revealing someone you may know.*

Hey. Want to go for a ride?

... Maybe.

::Smirking, leaning against a wall.::

*taking out a spare helmet and tossing it to you, giving a smirk himself*

Hop on then, if you're gonna join me.

::Grabs it and slips it on, before getting on the bike, hugging you around the waist or so.::

*He revs up the engine once she's secured, before driving off. He chooses to stay silent for the moment, as they drive along, before he reaches the outskirts of the city, and finally begins to slow down enough on the inclines to talk*

Sorry I haven't been around. Hope you don't think I was trying to avoid anymore meetings, or something like that.

I figured it was something. At least the last few have been the son of the Mayor of Maiami. Maiami despite being in the GDA insists on its own mayor. And he's. Been. Bearable.

And here I was thinking you were still having to contend with the worst of them.

*he was still keeping to a fairly good speed, so eventually they get to where his intended destination was: the top of a cliff. the sky is incredibly clear tonight.*

I think the really dense guys and girls took the hint.

::A cliff is interesting...::

Edited 2026-03-18 01:29 (UTC)

*he finally parks near the top, getting off his helmet and off the bike.*

Well, either way: Did anything get decided?

I told him I'd table my thoughts.

But shareholders are getting antsy and he keeps puppy dog eying.

So. No.

::Takes off her own, shaking her hair a bit.::

*... he lets out a breath, he's not even sure of what he hoped to hear on that, but he puts a hand into his pocket*

You wouldn't really want to end up with him, just to satisfy a bunch of shareholders, huh?

Maybe in some distant timeline. I think if push came to shove, my brother would find someone he'd never have to actually talk to ease it off my back.

But that's probably a lot of bellyaching from me.

Well.

You might not have to worry about that.

*He pulls something out of his pocket, and turns around, showing it.

It's a ring box. with a ring in it.*

I honestly don't know how I'm supposed to bring this up properly, and I'm sure I wouldn't hear the end of it if I had asked Rio, but--

Well, we did have our own meetings, right?

...

yes. we did.

::She's being respectful.::

... You don't have to commit immediately.

But consider me an option, even if it's to just "satisfy the shareholders". *he holds out the box for you to take. you don't even have to put the ring on. but it is for you.*

::Takes it, and opens it. How nice of a ring are we talking?::

*it's a pretty nice ring, all things considered. with a larger amethyst inset, and smaller amethysts surrounding the band in a "twist" design.*

Edited 2026-03-18 02:54 (UTC)

Take me out on some dates first, but. You're very high.

::Takes the ring and sliders it on.::

On the list.

Edited 2026-03-18 03:10 (UTC)

Let's consider watching the stars a "first date", then. Sound good to you?

Hey, sounds like a good way.

::Finger under your chin.::

To impress a lady.

*he takes the gesture in pretty good humor*

Watch out, I might do other "impressive" things, like taking you to dinner. We'll see where the night goes.

Sure. We'll. See. How that goes.

But. The stars are nice. And I've got a nice warm jacket, so I can spend some time.

*The stars are nice. He nods and turns to look out at them over the cliff's edge.

And at least for the moment, they can both appreciate that, while they're so clear.*
