[ Hello Vatheon, you get a hand over the device for a little bit before the teen lets it drop to the floor and made his way over to practice his punching and kicking on a nearby punching bag that he specifically crafted himself. It was rather sloppily made but it was worth it since it was good enough for abusing.

Since he was here for a while, he decided it would be best to just practice and keep himself in check. When he got back home, there were still missions and stuff waiting them. Koenma wasn't the nicest boss. Still after a few more swings almost knocking the punching back off the branch and into him, he stops and sits down. There's a little sweat dripping down his face and the night air tingled somewhat. IT gave him strange chills he'd rather not talk about.

Oh and look, Eikichi seems to have brought a small tied box of food towards Kuwabara. Yes, his cat enjoys doing things like this to him. He pats his kitty before be takes the box. Maybe learning how to cook wasn't so bad. He attempted it at home a few days ago. Hopefully it's a lot more edible now. ]

[ ooc: feel free to bug Kuwabara since I haven't posted in ages for him. He's training outside bored and playing with his cat. Anyone is welcome to come by and watch or troll and play with his kitty. Sparring partners go too! ]

You guys were friends enough I mean.

[ He replied...shrugging. ]

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

I don't recall becoming his friend!

[That... No... Were they...? He is so lost with this.]

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

Welly you guys sure act like friends.

[ he replied rubbing his head a little. ]

But that's just me...maybe ya guys aren't but you sure act like it...

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

What does that mean!?

[There's a slight bite to his question but he ultimately sighs. For the first time in his life, Hajime Tounomine has friends?]

What gave you such a ridiculous impression?

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

I mean what I said Tounomine-san. You guys look like friends all the time. I mean he treats ya like you're one of us and that's sayin' a lot for Urameshi.

[ He replied trying to explain it. He had always seen him as a friend too so he doesn't get why Hajime seemed quizzical about it. ]

It ain't ridiculous. It's pretty obvious if you ask me.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

[O-Oh... He's not sure what he should do, how he should respond, how he should feel.]

My only goal is regaining my honor. Something like friendship... I don't have time for it. It would slow me down. I must dedicate everything to defeating the one who has shamed my name.

[He stands perfectly still, almost awkwardly still, and swallows. There's an obvious blush on his face that accompanies his contorted expression, something between genuine confusion and discomfort and the smallest hint of hope.]

...How is it obvious?

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

[ Well he should be happy he has friends? Well he seems to be hard to talk to sometimes but Kuwabara thinks they're friends and Yuuske treats him the same when as he treats Kuwabara and all his other friends. He's always making fun of them somehow... but he doesn't mean it most of the time. ]

Honour ain't all ya need. It ain't somethin' you should lose easily. Hell without Urameshi, Kurama an' Hiei I'd be dead by now. I mean despite all the crap we got each other's back. Jus' like I can tell ya I got yer back. I ain't gonna deal with any punks tryin' ta hurt my friends or something.

Plus if ya keep talkin' like that you're gonna start sounding like Hiei. He's jus' like ya always saying friendship and having friends is useless and a big weakness. S'not like I haven't heard someone say that. Ya can regain yer honour with people supportin' ya? It ain't an embarrassment ta have friends back ya up. It jus' means that ya got more man power.

[ Yes Kuwabara is a frienship kind of guy. He'll talk on and on about it. Sorry Hajime you might have to deal with it for a bit. Kuwabara is looking at him seriously and seeing that his words might have gotten to Hajime maybe a little? He's not that smart but he knows what he's talking about most of the time. ]

Yeah. You guys seem cozy arguin' half of the time but it ain't anything serious. Urameshi's never serious when he's messin' with ya. At leas' til something is taken too far.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

[He gives no comment on the earlier matter since what Kuwabara says does make sense; even he had to rely on his teammates' power during kendo competitions. But teammates and friends were different. He thins his lips, seriously thinking about this.]

That kind of thing is friendship? It's more involved than that. Like...confiding in each other and messing around together.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

[ Yes it makes a lot of sense. At least he hoped it did. Kuwbara is lecturing because Hajime seemed to be the one that doesn't get it. Yusuke had a weird way of making friends and it wasn't strange that Hajime took it the wrong way...or whatever...He doesn't know what they were doing to get pissed off at each other. ]

Friendship doesn't just got one definition or one explanation. There's a lot of ways ya can see friendship. Doesn't mean ya gotta tell us about your problems and it ain't just about messing around. It's about understandin' each other and having each other's back. It's like having teammates but different cuz ya know they got your back no matter what. Plus, getting punched in the face or teased is typical with friendship. It doesn't mean they're serious when they stuff that seems mean. OR in Urameshi's case he punches people like a punch bag. [ Mainly him really. ]

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

Understanding each other... Having their back...

[Well shit. It is a blushfest over here. This friendship thing sounds...]

Kuwabara! Would you fight by my side no matter what?

[HE IS ASKING IF THEY'RE FRIENDS. Because the understanding thing sounds too...close. But he really means it...!]

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

Yeah it's just that simple. Ya don't have to spill yer guts. Jus' trust Tounomine-san.

[ Oh Hajime he doesn't get why you're red like a tomato. It's confusing him. Yes friendship sounds exactly like what he thinks it is! Yeah ]

Jeez took ya long enough ta say it. I got yer back Tounomine-san. We're friends right?

[ HAJIME THE MOST AWKWARDEST WAY OF ASKING!! BUT Kuwabara gets it without much effort. He's not completely idiotic. Good because Kuwabara means it too. ]

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

[Hajime adjusts his glasses. Then if what they're saying is true... Well, he would also back Kuwabara up. Perhaps not eagerly and allowing him to fight his own fight first, but if it was serious, he knew deep down he'd be there to support him. He nods stiffly, glaring with intense seriousness.]

I trust you.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

[ Jeez you know how to pull a serious moment on the two of them. Kuwabara just grins because he actually got to Hajime. He's happy he got that through. He's just that kind of honest guy that would do anything in his powers to protect his family and friends. Kuwabara won't betray his trust. That's a promise.

Kuwabara just looks at his serious face. ]

I guess I can count on ya ta have my back as well Tonoumine-san.

[ Now Situation at hand. ] Maybe you should go talk to Urameshi. I dunno what's goin' on with the two of you but it ain't pretty ta see you guys not on speaking terms.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

Naturally.

[He looks away with a scowl on his face. It's almost childish, really, the way he crosses his arms and scoffs. Urameshi doesn't have his back, okay. Because it sure as Hell isn't Hajime's fault.]

Urameshi is unsettled by the smallest things. I don't trust him.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

Least ya understand where I'm comin' from.

[ Yes very childish and even Kuwabara can tell. He might occasionally get into fights with Yusuke but he brushes them off now since it's the typical thing. Which reminds him. He probably needs to talk to Yusuke again too. He's sure that Yusuke has his back if Yusuke didn't he wouldn't be talking to Hajime at all. Yusuke would never talk to people he doesn't like and he probably would pound them already.... minus Kuwabara since he's the typical punch bag as always. Kuwabara still doesn't know what's going on with the two of them so he can't really help out. All he can say is it's their problem and they need to talk it out or duke it out. Whatever works. ]

That's cuz Urameshi's always like that. The way he thinks is pretty easy ta get. Not that mine is any better but that's aside the point. Whatever you guys got into a fight for it sure as hell had to be serious or Urameshi wouldn't be pissed about it.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

Are you accusing me?

[He glares defensively. He did nothing wrong. Yusuke is just sensitive.]

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

Oi I ain't accusing anyone. It's probably as much of your fault as it is Urameshi's since your guys' personalities almost clash.

[ HEY he's doesn't know what's going on. He's just trying to make a point. ] 'm just sayin' Urameshi might have a reason for it. I don't even know what happened between you guys.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

Urameshi exploded on his own. I did nothing than speak my mind.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

What did you tell him that was 'speaking your mind?' [ because if it was enough for him and Yusuke angry at each other it had to be something really important. ]

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

I told him that his feelings are none of my concern.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

Why the hell would you say somethin' like that to Urameshi!?

[ Holy... well he's never said that to Yusuke but Yusuke's emotions are always all over the place. Especially towards his friends and family. Still Hajime didn't know Yusuke that well...it wasn't completely his fault.. ]

Ya shouldn't say things like that to Urameshi. He's probably pissed off if not hurt cuz ya said that. Considerin' how close you guys did seem.

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

It's a burden to worry about another. I don't expect Urameshi to care about me either.

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

...That's part of having friendships Tounomine-san. [ OI back to square one... >< ] Burdens are better off shared with friends. I think you're wrong about that. Urameshi isn't like that. He probably cares that's why he's hurt. If you were jus' any guy saying crap to him like that he'd beat them up or something.

He didn't beat ya up first off and he got pissed which means you said something that really got 'im. [ Yes he knows his friend very well.... ]

[suckmylipstick.livejournal.com]

[So what? Yusuke cared? He had a sorry way of showing it, then. Hajime felt a bit responsibility. Maybe.]

I never asked for this unnecessary attachment. What do you expect me to do about it?

[kazumaai.livejournal.com]

[ It's Yusuke's way of showing it, he supposed. They can't do much about that. Well just a little bit is better than nothing at all. ]

...Geez you really don't get what I'm saying are ya?

[ He doesn't know really. ] Well the both of you gotta talk it out eventually. We're housemates and friends ya know?
