I'm thinking - maybe a memory? [ he shifts out of the way of the door, so that he and okuyasu can begin the walk. ] I'm not...sure, if that's fair game. But. I'll tell you about it, and then...
[ give it away.
the only items that are dear to him are his shades and the locket tied to john, that will revive him once.
I guess so. Not like Mr. F's real big on specifics, y'know?
[Soon he'll just start shouting into the open air to talk to the mysterious Mr. F, but for now, he just kind of says it like an unseen guy is watching them Truman Show style, somewhere.
Anyway. They're going to the well, he figures? So he'll come out of his house.]
[Ah - pointy Dave, the haunted doll guy, missing in action just like Jake is, now. Okuyasu just says "huh" at first, letting Dave piece together what he wants to say; sure, he doesn't understand much of the whole... brother-but-not-but-also-yeah thing, but he of all people knows what it means to have a brother, normal familial relations or not, who isn't a total shithead.]
Yeah? You show him all your cool guy stuff? [which he just assumes Dave has.....]
Yeah, kinda. We talked a little, too, about Bro. [ he says the word like it's a nightmare, which bro always was, but it's a quiet sort of word, too. ] Dirk was kind of always a giant nerd. The exact opposite of my brother.
No shit, dude had a haunted doll he talked to and stuff. Huge nerd. [Okuyasu interacted with Dirk very little, but it was Memorable. He shoves his hands in his pockets as they walk along, frowning a little - not at Dave, but at the way he says capital-B-Bro. If that ain't the real brothers mood...]
Yeah, I guess so. I, uh, hang out at Ochako's place a lot, so it's alright. [It's been several months, but Sleeping Next to Girl is still a wild and crazy concept for him.] House turned blue again, though.
What d'you mean, maybe? You can't maybe ask somebody out! [do it properly cries Okuyasu, local hypocrite, whose own relationship definitely started with "hell yeah we're going out." anyway.] So you guys're for real, right? Makes sense.
A little, yes, but also I don't know how like, shout it from the rooftops he'd like to be. It's still new, you know? [ and john has so far only liked girls. ]
Okay, telling me, your best bro ever, is hardly shouting from any rooftops, dude. [Okuyasu is Loud, but also, he's a good bro. Please!!] And I am pre-tty good at this dating thing, so, y'know.
[ dave has. no fucking clue. he stands there with his hands in his pockets, frowning, before going: ]
So, hey. Well. Like, well as in you, the well, not well as in well damn son. [ dave. ] This shit is magic, so you oughta know what I came here to toss in. So take it. It's yours?

[ it's a quiet offering, and dave isn't certain he's strong enough to sacrifice little pieces of a brother he actually cares about, but - ]
When those little portal things popped up, we went to my room together.

[It probably counts as cheating- or just doesn't work- if Dave lets it go and Okuyasu just tells him again, but at least it's out there in the world.]
no subject
[ a small smile. ]
Even if I can't remember it, someone else remembering it will be enough, I think.
[ or like. IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS. ]

[A shrug; why must Mr. F always take the good ones.]

[ or did he get a new roomie. i don't keep track. let okuyasu have a roomie!!!!! ]

Anyway, the well. How does the memory-giving work, Dave...]
