[glaciers]

[Yeah, no that's not going to fly with him.]

You... Go back to prison.

Also, that's not how friendship works.

[Also he's reaching into his pocket for his cell phone and taking a step back.]

[goen]

[ Yato doesn't step toward him but he's clearly not going away either... Also he is willfully ignoring everything Shouto just said. ]

What do you need your phone for? You wanna commemorate the moment?

[glaciers]

[Every single stranger danger alarm is ringing in his head right now.]

I have no idea who you are. The first time I saw you, you cut off somebody's hands.

[goen]

Oh, is that all? Like I said, my name's Yato. I'm a god of war! Sometimes, cutting stuff is just what I do.

[ There! Now Shouto knows who Yato is. Let the friendmaking commence. ]

If you ever need something cut up, I can help you with that too! And homework, and play, and if you ever need help practicing for an audition. I'm here for you!

[glaciers]

["Is that all" he says. Like cutting off people's hands is just a normal thing to do? Maybe in an alternate life or something, but they're in a more-or-less normal world and people don't go around cutting other people.

There's a long pause, and slowly, deliberately-]

Do you need to go to a mental ward...?

[goen]

Ha, ha, ha. For someone who's never laughed before, you have a sense of humor.

[ Yato would not be out of place at a mental ward, but a crazy person isn't going to admit they're crazy?? ]

So where ya going? What're you up to?

[glaciers]

... Who said I never laughed?

[It's true.

He can't deny what happened in the alleyway, and reasonably if he got out of the police station, he could do it again. Which means that calling the police is a less reasonable thing than he'd like.]

I have work in two hours.

[goen]

You did! We talked once. I told you some great jokes and we bonded over your dad falling down stairs.

[ Bond is such a strong word sometimes. So is great. ]

Work, huh? What kinda role did you snag?

[glaciers]

He still hasn't done that.

[Shouto just how big is your grudge against your father...]

I have a reoccurring role as the captain of a rival baseball team.

[goen]

Sounds like a nice gig! You do have a rival captain vibe about you. Totally dreamy. So what were you planning to do for the next two hours?

[glaciers]

... Dreamy... [That's excessive. That sounds awfully excessive, actually. But he's not here to argue right now.]

It's on the other side of town. I need to get there half an hour early.

[goen]

[ He just wants you to feel good about yourself Shouto!! ]

Well, let's go then. I'll walk you over!

[glaciers]

[... sorry what now.]

You don't have to do that.

[goen]

I don't have to, but I want to! It's boring traveling alone. And we can get to know each other better!

[glaciers]

... I don't want to do that.

[goen]

... We can walk in silence, then! I can do silence.

[glaciers]

[He just starts leaving.

Let's see how true that is.]

[goen]

[ ... Shouto? Why'd you suddenly start walking, Shouto?

But yea man, Yato can totally do silence. He's gonna silence the fuck out of Shouto. But not in the bad way. Juuuust gonnnaaaa aggressively walk next to Shouto and say nothing even though he has so much to say, all the way to Shouto's workplace. ]
