Natsume walks into the practice room that Switch was supposed to have their practice in today. Tsumugi isnt fucking there bevause he’s always late. Sora is there though. and he is STARING at his phone so intensely that for a second Natsume is convinced Sora’s eyes are gonna pop out of his head. Natsume clears his throat and Sora Looks up from his phone from what seems like it’s the first time in his life. “Hai Shisho :3” Sora says before goikg straught back to his phone. What the fuck was SO interestinf that he couldn’t look away from his phone for like 10 seconds.????
“Sora. What is so interesting on your phone that you can’t look away from iT??” Natsume asked because they could be getting in some PRACTICE if sora would literally just put his phone down for like 20 seconds. “Oh! I’m playing Pony Town! It’s really fun!” Sora giggles because he’s silly and continues playing the game.
“Sora what the hell is ‘Pony TowN.’” Natsume inquires. because apparently the name of THE GAME wasn’t enough to explain the basis of it to him. “Umm So basically you make a pony and you get to walk around and meet people! It is really fun! Sora thinks you should play it too!” Sora says while still staring at his phone. Wow. He wouldn’t even make eye contact with Natsume. (And natsume was absolutely offended that this game was apparently more interesting than him but he would never admit that.)
“Sora im 18 fucking years old i am not going to play a game where you walk around as a poNY” Natsume says, but secretly he’s going to play it later to try and figure out why Sora likes it so much. “Well if you can’t look away from your phone i guess i’ll just cancel practice.” Natsume says, turning around and walking out of the practice room. When he walks out he sees Tsumugi walking towards the room. He grabs Tsumugi by the wrist and walks to his dorm room with him.

“Uhhh Natsume-kun…? What exactly are we doing here…?” Tsumugi asks, kind of horrified by the fact that he was just dragged across campus. “We are going to play Pony Town, Tsumugi-senpai.” Tsumugi stares at him like he has 4 eyes which is really offensive to Natsume because the only 4-eyes in the room is Tsumugi. “Sora won’t stop playing it so i want to see what it is.” Natsume explains, and Tsumugi loosens up a bit. “Ohhh, okay Natsume-kun!” Tsumugi is way too fucking excited for this right now. why are you, as a 19 year old, so excited to play a game about ponies. Whatever.
Natsume pulls out his computer and Tsumugi uses his phone. When they get into pony town, natsume is in shock. “Why is my pony red with yellow haIR. This shit is actually fucking hideoUS.” Tsumugi laughs which makes Natsume really mad bevahse he was being serious but like ok whatever. “Just customize your pony, Natsume-kun.” Natsume just nods and does that.
When they finish making their ponies, Tsumugi smiles at Natsume. “Look Natsume-kun! I made my pony me!” Natsume has to bite his cheek in order to not laugh because that shit looks absolutely nothing like Tsumugi. Natsume can’t really talk though because his pony of himself isn’t all that good. But it’s better than tsumugis so at least he’s doing something right. They join THE GAME and look for a place to sit.
Natsume supposes it isn’t bad. It’s actually pretty cute, and a lot of people have really nice ponies. What..? No…this is a children’s game. he can’t be enjoying it that much. Tsumugi, however, looks absolutely shameless in the way he’s enjoying himself. The stupid smile on his face makes Natsume want to kiss him so badly. What was going on in his HEAD today why did he keep thinking all of these thoughts that were so unlike him….? Natsume doesn’t realized he’s moved so close to Tsumugis face until he feels the latters hand on his cheek. Tsumugi gives a light laugh before saying “Natsume-kun, you’re almost as red as your hair!” Natsume actually hopes he dies in that moment. he is so embarrassed. He’s slightly less embarrassed though, when Tsumugi KISSES HIM?!??! He’s almost positive he has died and went to heaven. (if tsumugi ever asked, he would say he died and went to hell.) When they pull away, Natsume looks back at his computer to avoid tsumugis gaze because if his face is still as red as it feels he is never going to recover from the embarrassment he’s feeling.
They continue playing Pony Town in a comfortable silence, when Natsume makes his pony kiss Tsumugi’s. And because God absolutely hates Natsume, a pony walks up to the two Mid kiss and says “Shisho? Senpai?” And if Natsume hadn’t died inside before, he definitely died inside now. Sora just watched him kiss Tsumugi in pony town. Natsume slams his computer shut and Tsumugi squeaks before putting his phone down and hugging natsume. “Oh my god. What am i going to dO? He just saw us kiss in Pony TowN. He’s going to ask about it and what am i going to saY????” Tsumugi traces his finger along Natsume’s back and smiles. “We can figure it out later.”
Natsume guesses that was true. Yes, he’d have to explain himself to Sora eventually, but that was then. Now, he could focus on Tsumugi hugging him on his bed.
