Holy shit—a real date, not just a Director-mandated one?

[disreguarded]

I - yeah, kinda. I mean, I used the task as an excuse but like. [ she says, flushing a bit. ] I think, I think so? I don't think she was just humoring me.

[haw]

Oh my god—c'mon, ya gotta dish. I know there's only so many people to choose from, but—who's the lucky girl?

[disreguarded]

Shinobu. [ beau says, and the flush just gets worse. ] She and I went to the koi pond through the portal.

[haw]

Ooh, goin' traditional. Her choice or yours?

[disreguarded]

Mine. Like I said, she - she seemed to like it. I don't know, man, it was...

[ her first serious date? yeah. ]

[haw]

[ he very lightly jabs at her good shoulder. ]

Wow, ya even appealed to her style! Ah, to be young an' in love...

[ majima stop sounding like you're an old man you're barely an adult ]

[disreguarded]

[ it makes her laugh, slapping at his arm. ]

Shut up, you're like the same age as me. [ she huffs. ] ... It was nice to have. Kind of a nice ending to the week before - you know.

[ shit goes crazy. ]

[haw]

[ he gets what she's implying, but he's deliberately choosing to ignore it; beau's clearly happy about this, and he wants to keep it that way. ]

Yeah, I getcha. Think there's gonna be a second?

[disreguarded]

[ it is a sight to see beau actually embarrassed and flustered. ]

No? No. Probably not. I don't see why there would be. It was for a task, there's no way I'm gonna be able to get her to do another one.

[haw]

What? Yer not even gonna try?

[disreguarded]

[ she makes a face. ]

No, what am I gonna do, like -- I can't take her home with me!

[haw]

Look, that's what I thought, an' I ended up gettin' to do just that at the end...

[ ... he's, again, ignoring the fact that even that's not a guarantee anymore. shh. ]

[disreguarded]

[ she's also going to pretend like that ending won't happen, thanks ]

Yeah, but you're you.

[haw]

Thought we established we're, like, the same person from alternate realities.

[disreguarded]

Well, yeah, but you're way better at romance shit than I am.

[haw]

Wh—how are you the judge of that? Not my fault I just so happened to hit Mizucchi's very specific niche of "dumb, funny, and handsome." In that order, by the way.

[disreguarded]

You're better at romance shit because you have someone waiting for you.

[haw]

Oh my god.

If you don't ask her out again, then I'm askin' her for you.

[disreguarded]

No! [ WAH ] Don't do that!

[haw]

Why not? I promised I'd help get you a girlfriend!

[disreguarded]

Not like that, that's so fucking embarrassing! You can't ask someone out for me, what are we, ten?

[ the obvious answer is to ask her out herself but like. ]

[haw]

Better than what you'd do which is fuckin' nothing, apparently!

[disreguarded]

[ screeeeee ]

Yeah, because people don't just fucking like me, Majima, there's some sort of catch, and I don't wanna get into it while we're nose deep in murder!

[haw]

All right, back it up there for a sec.

Did you just look me point blank in the singular eye an' say that people don't like you?
