beat of dream (2:30:33 AM): Taka-chan!
Sparkle Brigade (2:32:35 AM): Daisukesan!
beat of dream (2:32:50 AM): What are you doing up so late? You should be resting, ne?
Sparkle Brigade (2:33:00 AM): I can't sleep, Daisukesan.
beat of dream (2:33:29 AM): Excited? ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:33:35 AM): YES.
Sparkle Brigade (2:33:38 AM): You know I am.
Sparkle Brigade (2:33:41 AM): Where will you be sitting??
beat of dream (2:35:34 AM): Right in front, of course. ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:35:55 AM): Suuugoi.
beat of dream (2:37:12 AM): What outfit are you wearing?
Sparkle Brigade (2:37:45 AM): Well na, it's the New Years live. Something festive.
beat of dream (2:38:35 AM): Perhaps the kimino?
beat of dream (2:38:48 AM): *kimono
Sparkle Brigade (2:38:57 AM): Maybe na.
Sparkle Brigade (2:40:05 AM): Mouuu. Where are you?
Sparkle Brigade (2:40:09 AM): Hoomu?
beat of dream (2:40:48 AM): Yes, I'm in my office, plunking away on the keyboard. ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:41:00 AM): Tokyo hai?
beat of dream (2:41:34 AM): Takachan has been to my house!
Sparkle Brigade (2:41:59 AM): I know I've been to your house, Daisukesan! But don't you have two by now?
Sparkle Brigade (2:42:09 AM): Mou, Daisukesan, can I come over?
beat of dream (2:42:41 AM): Not yet. But I should get one for Alexchan and Anniechan, one with a nice big backyard! ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:42:56 AM): Haaai. Then you can leave them there.
beat of dream (2:43:24 AM): Don't you like my children?
Sparkle Brigade (2:43:32 AM): They try to bite me all the time!
beat of dream (2:43:48 AM): They're just playing, Takachan. ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:44:07 AM): Playing when they ripped my favorite sweater. ~_~
Sparkle Brigade (2:44:15 AM): Daisukesaaan.
beat of dream (2:45:18 AM): Nani o?
Sparkle Brigade (2:45:28 AM): I don't want to sleep here.
beat of dream (2:46:20 AM): Why not? Takachan has a nice apaato.
Sparkle Brigade (2:46:39 AM): I'm not at my apaato na. Hooteru.
beat of dream (2:48:27 AM): Where is Takachan?
Sparkle Brigade (2:49:09 AM): Hoooteeeruuu.
beat of dream (2:49:28 AM): ^-^;;;;;; Is Takachan in Tokyo?
Sparkle Brigade (2:49:34 AM): Haaai.
beat of dream (2:54:44 AM): Takachan can come visit me! We can have a sleepover, ne?
Sparkle Brigade (2:54:54 AM): Honto honto?
beat of dream (2:55:26 AM): Honto da!
Sparkle Brigade (2:55:44 AM): Sugoiii. I'll come right over.
beat of dream (2:57:23 AM): See you soon! ~_^*
Sparkle Brigade (2:58:50 AM): *Shows up about an hour and a half later after sneaking out past security and all that, in his flashy little sportscar, totting a backpack, dressed in his white cotton pajama pantsand a loose gray tee baring 'BALTIMORE' in big blue letters. Knocks somwhat quietly, noting the late hour.*
beat of dream (3:00:37 AM): *the dogs bark... there's a sound of him hushing them and locking them into their room (they have their own), before Asakura opens the door* Konbon wa. *he's still dressed to the nines, having not changed out of the suit he wore to the ballet*
Sparkle Brigade (3:01:38 AM): *Rubs his slim, athletic arms with a shiver, smiling at his longtime friend.* Haaa. It's so cold. *steps inside, shedding himself of his trendy sandals*
beat of dream (3:05:14 AM): Takachan should really wear more! Tch ch. *motions for him to come inside* Would you like anything? Wine perhaps?
Sparkle Brigade (3:05:57 AM): Iya. You know I don't drink. *drops his bag on the sofa as they go deeper into the abode, flopping himself down on the expensive furniture afterward.*
beat of dream (3:07:41 AM): I thought perhaps today you might've changed your mind. *picks up his glass of wine from wherever he'd set it in the hallway* Once again, my intuition has not failed me-- I thought I would be having a happy guest and asked my housekeeping to do the weekly clean a few days early.
Sparkle Brigade (3:08:40 AM): *Shines a wide grin at him from his sprawl.* Sooou.
beat of dream (3:09:50 AM): *smiles back in that slight way of his* I even had her dress the bed with your favorite sheets. *opens the door for his friend*
Sparkle Brigade (3:10:44 AM): *Inclines his head a little to peer into the room, smiling upward at the other man when the red and silver sheets are spotted.* How do you do it, Daisukesan?
beat of dream (3:12:20 AM): I just trust my instinct. Besides, even if you had not come, I would see the sheets and they would remind you of me, and that would make me happy.
Sparkle Brigade (3:13:00 AM): *Slides down on the lush cushioning, folding his hands behind his head.* Mou, I think you need a girlfriend more than ever. *Cheeky grin.*
beat of dream (3:14:13 AM): *shakes his head* When could I ever find the time? Besides, the last one I had was jealous of the time I spent with you. *half-teasing, but it's the truth*
Sparkle Brigade (3:14:39 AM): She looked like a horse anyway. *Crosses his legs, jiggling his foot idly.*
beat of dream (3:21:03 AM): *amused* Maybe a little bit. *sighs* I thought she was the one, though. *sits down on the couch primly*
Sparkle Brigade (3:21:22 AM): *Pauses in his fidgeting.* Did you really?
beat of dream (3:22:21 AM): Yeah. But then I thought the girl before her was, too. *siiigh* I'm probably just not the marrying type, ne?
Sparkle Brigade (3:22:42 AM): Take it from someone who's done it. The bachelor life is best.
beat of dream (3:24:49 AM): Perhaps. After all, we're both fortunate to have friends to spend lonely evenings with.
Sparkle Brigade (3:25:00 AM): *Friendly smile.* Hai.
Sparkle Brigade (3:25:50 AM): *Yawns widely into the back of one heavily braceletted hand, lifting it afterward to take in the time from his watch.* Daisukesan, it's almost three-thirty.
beat of dream (3:26:01 AM): Tired?
Sparkle Brigade (3:26:53 AM): I should be. *Rolls onto one side, curling up like a cat for heat, tucked face-first against the back of the sofa.* Mouuu.
beat of dream (3:27:23 AM): If you don't sleep you'll have dark circles under your eyes for the live!
Sparkle Brigade (3:27:51 AM): I'm trying too, Daisukesan. *Slightly whiny tone.*
beat of dream (3:28:24 AM): *pats Takanori on the head* I could make you some bedtime tea, the relaxing kind without caffeine.
Sparkle Brigade (3:29:42 AM): *Pouty.* I don't want any tea. *Unfolding with a long-suffering sigh, he nicks his bag from the other side of his friend, stretching over his lap to loop a hand into one of the shoulder straps with a childish little grunt, standing afterwards and heading toward his designated room, fluffing his hair as he strides.*
beat of dream (3:31:57 AM): *smiles to himself, shaking his head* Oyasumi, ne?
Sparkle Brigade (3:33:35 AM): *Turns in the doorway, one hand braced on the frame of it. His demeanor now much softer, as the midnight jitters of an oncoming concert leave him high and dry, like a sugar high crashing.* Haaai.
beat of dream (3:42:12 AM): *wanders back to his office, where he'll stay up all night... not unusual for him*
