[#96] Some of These Happy Points are Days Old.
But I hope you guys don't mind me cheating. lolol
i. Happy stuff! :D
+ Last Friday, the 9 hour marathon Skype call with Jennie and Peyton. I still don't know how we spent so much time just babbling about who knows what. Although two hours of that were spent on Peyton on her pizza, from deciding if she should get it to the point when it was delivered. Another couple of hours spent talking fic - both
je_ficgames and
je_holiday. (Mainly Peyton and I spazzing to Jennie about all she's missed since she hasn't been reading fic.) I think all of us got phone calls from various people at some points (Peyton was miss popular). God, and I think they helped me try to solve a crossword puzzle. That I don't think I finished on that note. lolol
+ Peyton invited me to her place. "I have an empty bed for you." Bow-chika-wow-wow.
+ The episode Rashomama played on Friday. And that is, hands down, my favorite CSI episode of existence. If you watch CSI and have never seen this episode, you are so missing out. :DDD Pimpimpim.
+ I managed to convince Cyn and Jennie (although the second one was a joint effort with Peyton) to get twitters. Who rocks? :D (AKA, if you do not have a twitter. you should get one now. And then friend me. I'm tinyangl.)
+ Yamapi and V6 are going to be on VS Arashi. Who's ridiculously happy? I AM I AM. January 10th can't come any sooner. *____________*
+ Tegoshi wanting to be flawless. Total A+.
+ Tegoshi asking Yamapi to Karaoke straight out. Even more A+.
+ J-Friends' I Will Get There. If you've never heard it, you should now. Amazing fucking song.
+ Just Peyton in general. :D She knows why.
+ Toda Erika on Domoto Kyoudai. I didn't used to like her, but after Ryuusei no Kizuna and this interview, she's really growing on me. Also, Koichi's magic trick was fucking awesome. Making her birthday with the cards? DUDE. WHO DOES THAT?! Holy shit. Even if it's raw, everyone should watch just for that, honestly. It's worth it. *______________*
+ This picture of Okada, Morita, Miyake. Hysterical. Be warned, Okada's in his tightie whities. lololol
+ Subbed K-chan Episodes: 1 ♥ 2 ♥ 3 ♥ 4. All are absolutely hysterical. I totally recommend checking them out.
+ Getting my week of jesummary posted. :DDDD
+ Oh! Almost forgot. Grades are starting to trickle in. :DD A- for Grammar! Honestly? That's the only one that I thought would come close to a B (Granted, I don't know how Creative Writing prof will grade, so who knows). But hearing that it's an A makes me giddy. Maybe I'll be able to boost my average with this semester. Ridiculously happy.
+ I love my twitter. That is the only reason I have most of this list. lolol Looking back at my twitters so helps. XD
ii. Galileo Zero.
Finally managed to watch this despite downloading it ages ago. Ohmygod, so amazing. It only served to remind me that I really liked the drama and then I really wished that I saw Yukawa and Kaoru together again. Random points!
+ Yukawa being lecherous. Hysterical. I love the assistant trying to get girls to "play" with Yukawa but failing miserably.
+ The guy who plays Kusanagi. I'd seen him in a couple of other things, but for some reason, he was just really hot to me in this. I don't even know why.
+ I was genuinely surprised when I suddenly saw Masami show up. With her glasses and white coat. She thoroughly amused me though. Loved her interactions with Yukawa, trying to hit on him and convince him to stay by saying she had a really tiny bikini and then Yukawa going off on how it'd be great if girls wore bikinis to class. I was like WTF. LOL Also, love at the end when she leaves and he's babbling about love (as always) and she's like, he doesn't get it. Yukawa never did get a clue.
+ LOVED MIURA. Ohmygod. He had Yukawa down, honestly. I thought it was brilliantly acted and just all around amazing. ;alskdjlkasfjd I was honestly waiting for him to show up on screen and when he did, I flailed hard. :DDDD
+ The cases were good. I mean, I liked them but it's not like I can say much about them. lolol
+ This just made me want to find out what happens in the dman movie. Wantwantwant. alsdkjalfksjdf
+ OH. At the end of the special, we got a performance of Shibasaki Kou and Fukuyama Masaharu. SO BEAUTIFUL. OHMYGOD. I knew they performed together for this, but I'd never actually seen them together so seeing Fukuyama in the back with the guitar made me flail ridiculously.
+ Honestly, a good watch for those who saw Galileo before. And if you've never seen Galileo, what the heck are you doing reading this?! lol Seriously. Thoroughly enjoyed myself. :DDDDD Plus Miura = A+.
+ OH, random note. For a split second, Sailor Venus was one of the assistants. I was like OH HAY. LOOK WHO'S ON MY SCREEN! :D
iii. It's the holidays! I thought I'd be nice and offer up some of my writing (as terrible as it is). The last time I ask for prompts, I know I failed. DDD: Sorry. But this time, I have more free time (aka right now) so prompt me something to write for you! Granted, I have no promises for length, so it may range from one sentence to .....Well, let's not go there. lol So prompt away! :D No deadline that I can think of. Hopefully, I'll be better about this one. *dies*

no subject
oh wait. i just remembered. nevermind. XD
no subject
finally was in the mood to write this. XD so long. oh god. 1.
--
Intervals of Three
i. 0 month. (Or really, 18 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"YAMASHITA, IF YOU DON'T GET ME TO A FUCKING HOSPITAL NOW, I WILL-"
Yamapi doesn't get a chance to find out what exactly Yui would do to him, nor does he really want to know frankly, because he's already pushing her into the car, throwing her bag into the back seat, and rushing to the driver's seat.
"WHY AREN'T WE THERE YET?!" She screams at him and Yamapi winces when she puts her hand on his arm and squeezes.
"Oh God, oh God, oh God," she moans--and not in the way he'd like, mind you--before steeling her eyes on him. "I cannot believe you did this to me. I cannot believe I let you do this to me. WE ARE NEVER HAVING SEX. EVER.
Yamapi winces again and has to remind himself that she's in pain and he should be a considerate and not think with his other brain. They finally arrive at the hospital later than Yamapi would've liked because he's almost positive that her hand marks are going to be permanent on his arm. He haphazardly parks near the front door, ushering Yui inside as she moans loudly again.
"My wife's pregnant!" he exclaims just as Yui curses Yamapi again.
The nurse behind the counter winces and ushers Yui into a wheelchair, leading her to a room. Yamapi ambles behind them with a little sigh of relief. Yui's a distance in front of him before she yells out, "Yamashita, where the fuck are you?!" Yamapi's eyes go wide before he rushes quickly to her side--the birth of their first child could happen at any moment, it seems.
ii. 3 months backward.
"What's it been? 3 years?" Yamapi asks, smiling as he shakes hands with one of his newest co-stars.
Yui looks thoughtful before smiling. "I think so. It's great to work with you again, Yamashita-kun."
Yamapi chuckles. "You called me Yamapi back then, you can do that again, you know."
She wrinkles her nose. "I don't think that'd be proper right now. I'm okay with calling you Yamashita-kun."
"Does that mean I should call you Aragaki-chan?"
She laughs--her eyes sparkling as she does so and Yamapi's almost a little, just a little taken aback. "Gakki's fine."
"So I can call you by your nickname, but you can't call me by mine?" he asks, mildly amused.
Yui's eyes go wide. "No, that's not what I meant. I mean--" She stops short when Yamapi starts laughing, the corners of his lips pulling upwards.
"It's okay," he says shaking his head. "I don't mind either."
Yui pouts at him. "You weren't like this on the Dragonzakura set," she comments.
Yamapi grins. "Things change." Before Yui can respond, Erika walks up to them, greeting both of them cordially--Yamapi never takes his eyes off of Yui, struck by how familiar he feels around her. Even if it has been three years since they last spoke.
do i even have enough icons for this? part 2.
"Catch him!" Yui calls out from across the hallway. Yamapi jumps from his seat, tossing the script he'd been studying in favor of grabbing the 3-year-old that was dashing around the house nude and still dripping slightly from the bath he'd just had.
"Raimu," Yamapi says sternly, holding his son at arms length and crouching down to eye level. He raises an eyebrow.
Raimu only grins, squirms out of Yamapi's hold and manages to dash to the next room--the kitchen. Yui throws Yamapi a glare as she runs past, a towel still firmly in her hands. Yamapi chuckles before intercepting, entering the kitchen from the other entrance and catching Raimu firmly in his arms, embracing him as Yamapi stands back up.
"Active today, aren't we?"
Raimu still tries to squirm, but this time, Yamapi's not letting him. He passes Raimu to Yui who starts to dry whatever is still actually wet and that hasn't dripped onto the floor in his journey around the house.
"Your son seems to like to bare all," Yui says sardonically, giving Yamapi a half smile.
Yamapi chuckles. "If you're going to say, just like his father..."
Yui smirks. "You already said it for me." She turns to Raimu who's calmed down a little thankfully. "Okay, mister. Let's get some clothes on you. Wouldn't want to catch a cold."
"I want papa to do it!" Raimu pouts.
"Ah, your dad's busy study--"
"I can do it," Yamapi interrupts. Yui blinks at him, startled. "My script can wait. I don't mind dressing Raimu." Yui smiles, passing Raimu back to his father before drying off her hands on a nearby towel.
"Okay. His clothes are already laid out on the bed so it'll be at least a little easier." Yamapi chuckles, leaning in to peck Yui on the lips.
"I know, Gakki," he teases before ushering Raimu towards his room. "Had a nice bath?"
"Un!" Raimu says cheerfully. "Mama used that shampoo I like." Yamapi laughs, leaning in to sniff Raimu's hair.
"Mmm. Smells good too!" Yamapi swears he can feel Yui's eyes on them, just watching--probably with a smile on her face.
iv. 6 months rewind. (Or really, 12 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"You're what?" Yamapi asks, heart pounding and eyes wide. He's not even sure he's standing anymore.
"Tomo-kun," Yui breathes, sitting down to join him on the couch--oh, he did sit down--and tugging his hand into her grasp. "I... I don't know how--"
"Of course we know how," Yamapi sighs, closing his eyes over his hand. "Shit."
Yui pauses. "Look, I can--"
"No," Yamapi says firmly, looking Yui in the eye. "I'm taking responsibility. I'll take care of everything."
Yui gives him a small smile, tugging him into her arms. "You're amazing."
"Of course, we'll have to get married," Yamapi says, more focused on trying to get everything in order. He misses the glance of disappointment on her face.
v. 3 years, 3 months rewind, 3 minutes.
"That's your co-star, Aragaki Yui. She'll be playing your girlfriend." Yamapi turns, looking over to see the girl his manager is gesturing towards. He blinks, then thinks to himself that that's not a bad girl to play his girlfriend.
"You're supposed to look disinterested," his manager coughs before Yamapi stares at him.
"What?"
His manager nods. "Yeah, something about her trying to find her way without you so you can't look interested in her, Yamashita-kun." There's something there that Yamapi knows he's trying to point out, but Yamapi can't quite decipher it. Yamapi just waves his hand in acceptance before turning to look at Yui again; she's chatting with one of his other stars--a Nagasawa Masami, he thinks--a bright smile on her face that almost calls for his attention.
She turns her head, catching his eyes--blinking and slightly confused. Yui smiles in his direction, tucking her hair behind her ear before waving to him.
Yamapi gives a half hearted one in return and exhales slowly, hoping he looks calmer than he feels. He's not sure how he's supposed to act indifferent when that's the farthest that he feels.
part 3! let's see how many parts this has.
"Yui!" Yamapi calls from across the yard. "I don't think we have enough balloons!"
"Papa~" Raimu whines. "When can we just eat the cake and forget about everyone else?"
Yamapi chuckles, leaning forward. "When your mom's back is turned, you can sneak a taste. Maybe get all that whipped cream off for your dad."
Raimu's nose wrinkles. "You know I don't like it too. Can't I just eat the inside? The cake part?"
"Nope," Yui chimes in, walking outside with a new bag of balloons in her hand and the other hand around her large stomach. "Here you go, Tomo."
Yamapi grins, leaning forward to kiss her and ignoring the loud "yuck" from beside him. He pulls back, puts his hand on Yui's stomach and says softly, "Only three more months before you become one of us, ne?"
"Papa," Raimu whines. "The balloons aren't done yet and I can't blow them up like you do!" Yamapi meets Yui's eyes and exaggeratedly rolls his eyes.
She laughs, shakes her head. "Rai-chan, you know you won't be able to act like that when your baby sister or brother is born."
Raimu nods, holding his head up. "I'm going to be a big brother! And protect it like daddy does for you."
Yamapi smirks while Yui tries to hold back her laughter. "Did papa tell you to say that?"
"Yup!"
"Well, just make sure you don't protect your baby sibling like your papa did his baby sister. She nearly kicked him when he forbade her to marry your uncle Jin."
Yamapi winces, like he's remembering the moment perfectly in his head.
"But what if she doesn't know what a right idiot he is?" Raimu asks, frowning. Yamapi instantly claps a hand over his mouth, chuckling awkwardly as though that would make Yui forget what Raimu had just said.
"Did your papa say that too?" Yui says pointedly, glaring at Yamapi. With Yamapi's hand over his mouth, all Raimu can do is nod vigorously.
"Heh," Yamapi chuckles again. "Um. That. That wasn't about Jin, of course. That was about something else."
"Wait till I tell him that," Yui chuckles, turning around and waddling back into the house.
"It's nothing I haven't said to his face before!" Yamapi calls out before crouching down when Yui's out of sight. "Now, Raimu, that's one of those things that we're supposed to keep between us," Yamapi says firmly.
"Oh. I'm sorry, papa. I'll try to remember next time," Raimu says before handing Yamapi a balloon. "This first though."
Yamapi shakes his head, laughing.
vii. 5 months, 1 week rewind. (Or really, 13 months, 9 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"Pi, I know you've been doing the right thing, getting engaged to Aragaki-chan and getting a place together and whatnot, but have you even stopped to think about what you're doing?"
Yamapi pauses then sighs. "I didn't call you so you could tell me what I'm doing wrong, you know."
"You're miserable," Jin says on the other end. "You're miserable and you don't know why."
"I'm not!" Yamapi snaps annoyed. "I've been dating Yui-chan for over a year now. This is good news."
"Then why don't you sound like you're convinced yourself?"
"Since when do you pay attention to these kinds of things?"
"When my best friend seems to want an escape instead of facing up to the things he's set out for himself. Why didn't you just say what you felt then?" Yamapi can tell Jin's frowning on the other line and something about that thought makes Yamapi frown in turn.
"Because this is the responsible thing to do. We're adults, Jin. It's not that easy anymore."
"Do you want to have the baby?"
Yamapi pauses before a smile spreads on his face. "Yeah. I want the baby."
"Does Aragaki-chan know?"
Yamapi blinks. "What? Of course she does!"
"Then why is she over here with Rina and sobbing her eyes out?" Yamapi doesn't bother to respond to that, already on his feet and out the door.
part 4... >.<
Rina gives Yamapi a glare. "If you don't get things fixed, Tomohisa. I am going to--"
Yamapi doesn't get the chance to find out because Jin's already leading Rina away from the bedrooms, ushering her into the kitchen. "Fix it!" is the last thing Yamapi hears from his sister's lips.
Yamapi leans his head against the door. "Yui-chan. Just. What's wrong?"
"If you don't know, then why should I tell you?"
"Because I won't know if you don't."
The door opens and Yui glares at Yamapi fiercely. "You know what, fine. It's because you're so caught up in doing the right thing, that you haven't even told me if this is what you even want. If you're going to be happy getting married to me and having a baby."
Yamapi stares in stunned silence. "What?"
"You pretty much always do what you're told, Yamashita. How do I know you're not just going through the steps and doing what you're expected. How do I know this is not just you forcing yourself? And--" Yui stops short, clapping a hand over her mouth. "And how do I know that you're happy?"
Yamapi abruptly takes her into his arms, squeezing tightly as he shuts his eyes. "Yui-chan, that would never happen. I'm doing this because I love you and want to have this baby with you."
"But--" Yui starts, but Yamapi interrupts. "You should've told me you were worrying about this."
"You were so focused. I just--I didn't want to ruin it."
"I'm worried too," Yamapi murmurs, still holding onto her. "I don't know if I'll be a good father. Don't know how to be one. But, Yui-chan. If it's with you, I feel like I could do this--or at least try my best."
"Oh shit, he actually did solve it without our help."
Yamapi rolls his eyes before pulling back and glaring at his sister. "Way to ruin a good moment. Thanks for keeping her away," he snaps, angling the last part more towards Jin than Rina.
"You know how determined she is." Jin only shrugs as Rina approaches Yui and smiles brightly.
"See, my brother's an idiot, but he's not that much of a fool."
Yamapi rolls his eyes again. "Thanks for putting it that way."
"And you," Rina snaps, pointing a finger at him. "You make sure you don't ruin it, idiot. I can't be here to fix things up."
Yamapi smartly avoids saying that she really do anything this time and instead looks towards Yui who's trying to wipe away her tears while laughing.
"Be careful," Jin murmurs lowly as he stands next to Yamapi. "There might not be a next time."
"I know," Yamapi says exhaling. "I know." Yui's eyes meet his and Yamapi smiles at her which she returns. His heart skips a beat.
viii. 3 years, 6 weeks rewind.
"We should go on a date," Yamapi says smoothly when he's standing next to Yui.
She doesn't answer, only looks up at him blinking widely.
He nearly falters before gathering his senses. "I'm asking you out to dinner."
Yui doesn't say a word again, finally reacts though--even if laughter isn't originally the reaction he was looking for. Her laughter starts to die out slowly as she blinks at him in surprise. "What? That's not a joke?"
"What?" Yamapi asks incredulously. "How does that make you think--I. No?" He falters at the end, now more embarrassed than surprised.
She blinks at him, confused. "I'm not exactly--Guys like you wouldn't be interested in me. I'm not even a big name or anything."
"What does that matter?" Yamapi snaps--then tries to calm himself down, because it wouldn't do for him to start snapping at a girl he'd like to ask out. "I don't judge people off things like that."
Yui smiles at him, faintly before shaking her head. "I don't think it's a good idea."
Yamapi tries not to look toodisappointed. "Okay," he says.
Before he can move, she has a hand on his arm. "No hard feelings, right?"
Yamapi gives her a smile. "Yeah, no hard feelings." She grins at him--looking like she had the day they met, the day she'd taken his breath away--before tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Great."
argh. part 5
ix. 6 weeks.
"Aren't you glad you accepted?" Yamapi says cheekily as they're on his couch watching some movie.
Yui laughs, shaking her head. "Maybe I should've held out a little longer if I knew you were going to get so arrogant."
He frowns, leaning in to press a kiss against her lips. "You wouldn't dare."
"No," she laughs. "I really wouldn't. It would be sad if I missed out a second time."
Yamapi grins. "I'm glad you changed your mind."
"It's been three years. Something had to."
Yamapi turns to look at her, pushing her hair behind her ear. "Yeah, well, that's not the only thing that's changed."
She laughs, leaning in to kiss him on the lips. "Hmm, is this your game, because it's completely working?"
"If it's working," Yamapi murmurs, pulling back to look her in the eye. "Then it is." Her laughter bounces off his walls as he kisses her again. And again.
x. 3 months rewind. (Or really, 15 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"Raimu," Yamapi says firmly. "I've always wanted that as a name for my son."
Yui raises an eyebrow. "And nothing else will do?"
Yamapi flushes, covering his mouth. "It's not that--I just."
"Just want to make more decisions by yourself." Yui crosses her arms, raising an eyebrow at Yamapi.
"I-" Yamapi starts before faltering off Yui's glare. "It's just an option?" he says weakly instead.
"And I'm choosing not to put it on the list," she says firmly.
"But why not?"
"Because we could always choose more meaningful names to give our child. Keep these things running in the family! Like, he could be Tomohisa Junior."
"No, I don't want to give my son my name!"
"Why not?" Yui raises an eyebrow.
"Because it's--I just don't like all that senior, junior stuff. I'd rather give him another name that'll fit him."
"And Raimu would?"
"Yes!" Yui rolls her eyes.
"And if it's a girl?"
Yamapi pauses. "Rai--Rei?"
"...Do you just like names starting with R or something? We could name her Rina after your sister," Yui suggests.
"Yeah," Yamapi scoffs. "That'd boost her ego."
"Well, if we're going with R names..."
"It doesn't have to start with an R. Maybe Yori, a Y name like her mom's."
"Yamashita Yori? Two Ys in a row? I don't think so." Yui flips through her baby book while Yamapi tries to hold back his sigh. "Did you just sigh?" she snaps; Yamapi's eyes go wide.
"Of course not!"
"If you're sick of this, then you can go do whatever. I'll take care of everything, since I am carrying the baby in my stomach, I should do all the work, right?"
Yamapi winces. "No, Yui-chan. It's really nothing like that."
"It better not be." She waddles into the next room, saying that she's thirsty and after he offers to get it for her, that she can still do things for herself thank you very much. Yamapi finally sighs, shaking his head--he honestly can't wait till at least the pregnancy is over with, because he's not sure how much he can take.
xi. 12 months forward. (Or really, 30 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"I think Raimu's finally asleep," Yamapi exhales as he slips into bed with Yui who's already half-asleep.
"Mmm," she manages before turning over and cuddling close to Yamapi.
"Today was eventful, wasn't it?" Yamapi yawns, shutting off the light and drawing the covers over him.
"Yeah," Yui says in the middle of a yawn. "Remind me that next year, we shouldn't have such a big party. And to not invite Rina and Jin if she happens to be pregnant again next year."
"I should hope not," Yamapi snaps.
Yui laughs. "I thought you'd gotten used to them together already."
"Just because I don't scream bloody murder whenever I see them together does not mean I'm used to it," Yamapi explains.
and part 6!!!!
"With a party like that? And all the gifts he got--I think Jin got him that huge teddy bear we saw a week ago--and that cake? I think he's good for this year."
"It's just it's his first birthday, and I wanted it to go right." Yui sits up, meeting Yamapi's eyes. "Do you think he'll remember it?"
"Yui. He's one. Of course not. But that's okay. We get to embarrass him with pictures of it when he's older. I got that one with him and all the cake on his face."
She laughs, sliding back down in the bed, arms wrapped around Yamapi. "Did you notice that he wouldn't eat any of the whipped cream?"
"A boy after my own heart," Yamapi jokes.
Pause. "Do you think you want another one?"
Yamapi pauses too, before a smile breaks out on his face. "Yeah. Yeah, I would. ...Are you pregnant?"
Yui laughs. "No, but it's good information to know." She presses a kiss against his lips. "And I'd act on it tonight, but I'm too tired for that."
"Hmmm, never the kind of thing one should be tired for, but I'll let it go tonight." He kisses her head and shuts his eyes.
xii. 0 months, 6 hours forward. (Or really, 18 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"You did amazing," Yamapi breathes as he presses kisses on Yui's sweaty forehead--pushing aside her bangs.
"If I ever want to do that again, remind me how painful it was the first time," Yui says--although she's obviously exhausted because it's not as snappy as it could be. Yamapi chuckles before looking down at the baby boy in Yui's arms.
"What are we going to call him?" Yamapi asks, watching as the baby blinks up at them with wide dark brown eyes, barely any hair on his head and the blanket comfortably wrapped around him.
"Raimu," Yui says firmly. Yamapi almost slips off the bed when he turns to her abruptly.
"What?"
"Raimu. He looks like a Raimu, doesn't he?" Yui smiles, looking down at their newborn son.
"I--Didn't you say--"
"And I changed my mind." Yui meets Yamapi's eyes, her smile bigger. "I think Raimu would be a great name for him."
"Yui, you don't...I mean, I'm glad, but if--"
"Yamashita," Yui laughs. "Just stick with it, okay? He'll be Yamashita Raimu."
Yamapi feels his heart skip a beat; he leans forward to kiss her, his hands on her cheeks. "I love you, you know," he breathes when they separate.
Yui grins, leaning her forehead against his. "Good, because you're stuck with me. And Raimu." They look back down at Raimu whose cheeks are starting to get puffed and Yamapi can just see the start of a crying fit.
"Oh! I think the baby's starting to get hungry already," a nurse says as she's walking in to check on Yui. "How about the new mom feed her baby for the first time?"
Yamapi's hand meets Yui's, gripping tightly as the nurse helps Yui position the baby over her breast--the start of their new family.
and lastly part 7. oh god.
9 years forward (Or really, 10 years, 6 months, 6 weeks and 3 days forward.)
"No, he is not joining Johnny's. Are you kidding me?!" Yamapi stares, eyes wide at the application in Yui's hands.
Yui frowns, hands on her hips. "It's Rai-chan decision if he wants to join or not."
"But--" Yamapi starts, looking down at his 9 year old. "Do you want to?"
"Un!" Raimu says enthusiastically. "Just like papa! Everyone at school talks about you, saying you're great and all these things, and I want to do what you do!"
Yamapi crouches down, smiling. "You want to sing and dance?"
"And act! I think acting looks fun. Pretending to be someone you aren't? Papa's so good at it."
Yamapi looks up at Yui, eyes narrowed. "You had this planned, didn't you?" Yui grins mischievously as Rei pads in from the living room.
"Why is everyone here?" she whines. "Weren't we watching a movie?" Yamapi moves to pick her up, rocking her from side to side.
"We're coming soon, Rei-chan," Yamapi says with a smile. "Your mama and brother were just teaming up against me. Don't ever go into entertainment, okay?"
"Like mama? But mama's so pretty on the TV! Why can't I be like her?" Rei pouts at Yamapi almost pathetically.
Yamapi stops, stares before sighing. "You too, huh?"
"Un!" Rei says happily.
Yui leans against Yamapi's shoulder, winking at Rei. "Just gotta accept it, Tomo-kun. A family full of performers, this one."
"Yeah, well. Doesn't mean I have to give them up to entertainment just yet," Yamapi starts tickling Rei as they head back to the family room, Raimu following behind them with a "Wait for me!"

*FLAIL*
there are certain parts that really get me - like the one after raimu's first birthday, the entire scene about the conflict of pi and yui getting married for love or responsibility, the scene after the birth of raimu. i feel my heart constrict just a little and it's such love. ♥
