obviously this can't get any manlier.

[tangledlocks]

Who: Jack and Minato
Where: Plaza, then they'll go on a manly adventure.
When: Afternoon after Jack texted Minato.
Style: Action
Status: Closed

[Exactly one hour after the text conversation had happened. Jack stood in the middle of the Plaza waiting for his guest to arrive. He had a lot to discuss with the other once he arrived and they were to do whatever it is Jack had planned for them.

It had been quite some time since Jack last saw his friendly companion- ah! He almost couldn't contain his excitement. So many things to do, things to discuss, and so little time to do it in!]

[Jack places a hand on Minato's shoulder.]

You do know I consider you family at this point in time, correct? [They had become so close this last year and a half. Jack enjoyed every moment he got to spend with Minato, and he hoped it was likewise.]

Listen, why don't we go walk through the park. I believe we can find something to do there!

['You do know I consider you family'...

...ah...

For Minato, that hits hard. He...appreciates it so much; too much. Family means more to him than he could ever put into words.

[messianic]

...Thank you.

I would like that. It'd be nice to...spend more time with my family this way.

[tangledlocks]

[Ah, that warmed his heart quite a bit.]

Thank you for sticking by me, Minato. It's really quite a big deal when I can keep friends for this long, you know, long enough to consider them part of my family.

I've never been so patient with a piano student, either.

[messianic]

[...ah...

He chuckles quietly.]

I'm lucky then. Thank you very much for your patience--

[And maybe, maybe--]

Jack Oji-san.

[tangledlocks]

[Jack smiles at that. He would look up what Oji-san meant later. But he knew it was a term of endearment. A term family called one another.]

We should play a song together, Minato. That is what we can do with our day. We can write a song- perhaps hum a little tune and write it down!

[messianic]

[Yes do look it up, Uncle Jack.

But for now, he brightens. That sounds like a wonderful time to him, really.]

I would love to. I wouldn't know where to start, but...it sounds wonderful.

[tangledlocks]

[Uncle Jack, he would think this is so cute.]

We start with a piece of paper, and a melody that sounds good to you.

[messianic]

[Yes, well. He loves his newly found uncle.

...ah.]

Alright. I'm willing to give it a try. Where should we go?
