Hey, this is the inbox of Kozume Kenma! I'm probably not here!
Leave a message and I'll text back when I cat. Probably pretty quickly.

"Oh... uh... sorry."

He looks almost sheepish for a flash of a second.

"I can help you eat it then."

[anxiouscat]

"No need... to apologize. It was nice of you... To get me some."

He cuts out a slice for himself, another plate gathered for Tobio and a fork.

"Want to just come get what you want? I'll get the game ready."

[assumptions]

"Do you want some for later?" Kageyama asks as he goes to get look at the pie and then glances at Kenma.

[anxiouscat]

... "Yeah... Maybe the same size slice." He calls back, he left like, most of the pie there. He wasn't kidding when he said he doesn't eat too much.

While he's sorting that out, Kenma's getting one of the game consoles ready. Legend of Zoldo? Seems fun enough.

[assumptions]

"Just...one?" Kageyama frowns a little down at the pie.

But he starts to get himself some, basically the rest of what Kenma says he won't eat...not to mention the food he'd actually brought for himself and all... But he is a bottomless pit.

[anxiouscat]

"Mmmh- it's nicer fresh. You might as well have some too-"

He won't be terribly surprised when it's all gone. But maybe a little impressed. Sports players and their bottomless stomachs, right?

When he gets back, Kenma's already had a couple nibbles, seemingly very happy with that- though it's hard to tell with his sharp features.

[assumptions]

Kageyama settles with some apple pie and still feels a bit weird eating what he'd intended as a gift for Kenma but then again he also has no intentions of something good going to waste. At least the other will enjoy some of it... he'll know better for next time too!

He glances over at Kenma as he himself starts shoveling in pie into his mouth.

"Why do you like it?

[anxiouscat]

It's all about learning! Can't know someone perfectly without interacting first, after all.

"Why?... it's tasty, right?" He thinks so, at least. There's a little shrug as he leans back, working through his food before trying to play games. "Why do you like volleyball?"

[assumptions]

"Lots of things are tasty.."

Kageyama mumbles.

"Because it's volleyball."

Easier than explaining that he'd basically been born loving it and that his grandpa had only furthered that natural inclination.

[anxiouscat]

"sure... But that doesn't really answer..."

He blinks over, a faint head tilt, and then there's an empty plate eventually set aside. Akward ass cat as ever.

"If I said... because it's apple pie. Would that make sense to you?"

[assumptions]

Kageyama had ate about three times what Kenma had ate in the same time and then he tilts his head at the question.

"yes."

[anxiouscat]

"Oh..."

He doesn't understand him at all... But he can see why Shoyo got along with him so well. One of those people that operates entirely on instinct.

"I guess it's the same... I just think it's really good."

[assumptions]

"Okay," Kageyama can accept that. There's a lot of foods he thinks are way better but he supposes it's fine if Kenma prefers apple pie... maybe he'd have more energy if he ate more meat and stuff, though...

"Do you eat it all the time?"

[anxiouscat]

Maybe... but then, usually the problem is NOT eating... not eating the wrong stuff.

"Not really... Just a nice treat to have sometimes." He gives a little shrug. In truth it's because he's often too lazy to go out and get it.

"Ready to try some games?" He's almost literally itching to go.

[assumptions]

"I'll just watch you first," Kageyama says, because well he doesn't want to lose you know.

[anxiouscat]

"Are you sure?"

He taps along, pulling out a racing game and getting it started. Totally not a subtle plan to get Tobio into the vibe of the game first. Cart, track, character. All selected.

He shifts, getting comfortable on the couch beside him before starting the first race and... Man this game is chaotic with all the NPCs and items turned on!

[assumptions]

The game is pretty crazy and Tobio is staring trying to keep track of all the things. He points at one of the items. “What does that thing do?”

[anxiouscat]

Blario Kart with all the NPCs on is chaos incarnate. A mess of randomness disguised as a game.

He has the lightning bolt equipped, flickering a glance over to Tobio briefly. "This..." And he taps the button, flashing lightning on the screen that turns everyone tiny.

Zooooom! Time to catch up!

[assumptions]

It's really chaotic. It's maybe a bit too chaotic but it is kind of cool when everyone turns tiny...

"Oh..." he stares intently at the screen.

"How do you keep track of everything?"

[anxiouscat]

"Hmmm?"

Tap tap tap tap, there's a brief moment where he's focused, and once he reaches a clearer point he explains.

"There's a minimap in the top right... If I look at that I can see where everyone else is... then it's just people near me I need to care about." He explains. Hmmm- maybe if he relates it to something Tobio's more familiar with.

"Like keeping track of players on each side of the court."

[assumptions]

“Oh. I guess that makes a little sense,” but in this format it is a bit overwhelming to Kageyama. But he is admittedly enjoying watching Kenma play the chaos. He can tell that he’s good at it.

“You’ve played a lot.”

[anxiouscat]

"Mmmh, it's an easy game to play with other people... so I used to play it a lot." He nods, finishing off that race and then turning to Kageyama.

"If you don't play many games, the interface can be a lot to look at... But once you know it all it's fine." He finds a spot and points. "That number just tells you your position... and the bubbles in the other corner show you what items you have."
