idk you yet

Summary:

Loneliness haunts both Langa and Reki in their regular lives. Reki has trouble making friends, and Langa can barely communicate at all after losing his father. Either curious or desperate, or both, they both sign up for the app “Friends Finder” and connect with each other.
Langa might be gloomy and not say much, but Reki starts to cherish every word Langa does communicate. Meanwhile, Reki’s upbeat optimism is helping heal Langa’s heart. Both are feeling deeper and deeper emotions for each other over their months of texting and occasional talking, slowly falling in love through their phones.

Notes:

this is best viewed on web browser, but it does work on mobile! tested on google chrome (may need to adjust the zoom!)

Inspired by and titled after this song.
Day Five of RengaWeek2023 :) Enjoy some Langa-centric hurt/comfort <3 They really are so good for each other.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

you said roof.. So I went up there today. It's bright.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

AH. You’re copying my misfit ways. I’m so flattered. That's a joke, btw. Except, I am not a model student and it's mostly accurate. But eating on the roof doesn’t mean shit, don't let me fool you on japanese lunch culture or anything.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

there are other people up here, but they leave me alone unlike in the classroom.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I don't think you're too talkative.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't want to join any clubs..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I get that. I don't want to either. Maybe if they had a skating club..

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I could not imagine living in an apartment

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

You live in a house?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Yeah. I have three little sisters so with my mom and dad too we need a house (≧▽≦)

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

don't you feel alone?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

sorry that was a super weird question. Sorry.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

hey Langa I just want you to know you don't have to only text at school. You can text me at home too. Like.. in case. You know? Idk. ?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

So.. since you're ignoring me I'm just gonna assume you didn't go to a&w but I did. Poutine is weird. Not awful. Just cheese fries are better.

 
 
 
 
4/25
Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

my usual lunch period today is taken by that check up day thing I mentioned.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Good luck dude.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I can't tell if that's sarcasm or you actually wishing me luck..

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

4/26
Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

it's Wednesday my dudes. How is life in Langa's world?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

it goes.. turns out that club was the drama club..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

and? What'd you get roped into? Is it a play? Please tell me it's a play.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I am regretfully telling you it's a play..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

lolololololol (≧▽≦) so what do you have to do???

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

they wanted me to be the lead role, but then they found out how I literally don't talk.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

and then they kicked you out huh? Wait - lead role and you’re not even in the club? Just how popular are you??

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

they changed the play. So that the prince didn’t have lines.. So I could still be in it..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

again, HOW POPULAR ARE YOU?? Is it like a foreigner thing? Or are you, like, super hot or something?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

idk, i dont think im popular.. And I'm not hot..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

idk dude. Sounds like you’re popular and hot. Randos don’t just get pulled off the streets to be *princes* in the drama club plays.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't know anyone. How can I be popular? I don't even talk.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

乁(ツ)ㄏ some girls love the quiet and mysterious type. Must be nice to have em all swooning over you. Prince Langa (>.^)b

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

i could literally care less about girls.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

a little old to think they have cooties aren't you?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

….that’s not what i meant.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

then explain~

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

my mom said to keep that information to myself here.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

japan

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

oh, sheesh i was worried there for a second you’re like … talking shit about me to your mom or something and i didnt even do anything. Wait. oh. Langa. Nevermind.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

i wouldn't talk shit about you to my mom… lol

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

(≧▽≦) wait did i actually make you laugh? DID YOU ACTUALLY LOL?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

no one actually lols when they say lol

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

i do! Cmooooon, a slight chuckle? A smile? An amused huff of air?? What was it? What do Langa lols translate to?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

i guess the closest is an amused huff of air.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I'll take it!! Mission success. I’ll have you know I gave myself a pat on the back and everything.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

you were on a mission to make me laugh?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

REKI HELP

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

omg Langa ok. Fake being sick?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

for the entire play?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

good point. You know you could have just told them no right? Like that's an option dude.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

…..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa. ರ_ರ Just tell them no! Say something came up.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki what makes you think I'd be a good liar?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

okayyy well I don't know what you want from me! Maybe when you get to rehearsal and you're like ರ_ರ at the girl maybe she'll realize you're not interested. I don't know how to help. I'm always interested in everyone.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

You said everyone…

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I did. On purpose. In a not creepy or assuming way of extending a hand. Or extending finger guns. Or a hand flip. ✧・゚: * Get it?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I get it. Thank you Reki.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

np dude. Took me a minute ngl. So for your club situation, just leave after school. Like dip as fast as you can.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

but you are.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

and just so you know I don't feel like I deserve how nice you are to me.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I texted you every day, almost like every other hour and nothing.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I couldn't.. I'm sorry Reki..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

what happened??

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I got detention for not paying attention in class.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

That's not what I meant Langa..

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

can we just drop it?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I didn't mean to ignore you and then when I finally could I felt so stupid..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

and then today you didn't wanna be alone. This is like one of those.. fucking what's it called relationships. Like the little fish that swim with the sharks.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't understand.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

look, this is hard for me to admit but I'm kinda pissed and I feel bad about being mad. So just listen. We both signed up for this app yeah?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

yeah?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

you're not the only one who feels alone. I told you that and you always act like I'm doing you some kind of favor here but it goes both ways.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

my days without at least a lunch text from Langa sucked to be honest.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

my days without a good morning text sucked too..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

tbf I did text you good morning. I just gave up after you ignored me for like five days.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I'm sorry..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Just.. can you give me any hints? Like just send an emoji? So I can stop considering paying money to a black market hacker to find your address every time you drop off the face of the earth.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I'm only mad ‘cause I was worried. I'm not actually pissed at you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

how about this one? ヾ(・|

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

like you're giving a little wave to say hey Reki I'm alive and not ignoring you just disappearing?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

yeah exactly.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

works for me ♡ But you're here for me, listening to every single rant and keeping me company at work and hanging out etc. I'm there for you too.

Langa Icon

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't want to tell you.

Reki Icon

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I emailed you the watch party link so just hit that on your laptop. We should have been doing that the whole time..

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

why you don't like countdowns?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

that's a goofy question. You know I love countdowns. (≧▽≦)

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

oh you just hit play and it works for both of us. We should have been doing that..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

yeah. Thank you.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

( ꈍᴗꈍ) *pats bed* come here.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

but Idk?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

if you're hesitating I'm pulling you straight into my lap.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

willingly and awkwardly falling into you.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

(✯ᴗ✯) so you saw the view, that's what you'd see, so look at your screen and pretend. I'm holding my pillow like I am unable to resist wrapping my arms around you. Cause that's how it'd be.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

around where?

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

your stomach. And this is gonna sound so weird but I'd definitely be smushing our faces together, like on the side. Nuzzling your cute face.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

(≧▽≦) like your chin on my shoulder? my hair would be in your way.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

my hair would be too. (≧▽≦) I wouldn't care. You can get red fluff in your eyes. I'm snuggling your face too!

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

my face hurts.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

why??

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

cause you're making me smile so much..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

!! Good !! Cheek kiss for your happiness. (^3^(^ ^*)

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

melts. (♡‿♡)

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

ahhhh ok best part about this is with me behind you, you can't see the blush.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

but I am sleeeeeepyyyyy

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

*pounces* I'll sleep here.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

k *wraps you up* mm so warm and cuddly.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

hey Reki can I tell you something

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

course! I'll actually stay up. Turning the light on and everything

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

no leave it off.. um

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

patiently waiting in the dark, snuggling Langa so it's easier for him to talk.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

that's the thing I can't a lot of the time.. and sometimes I can't even text..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

but that's okay? We have a system, remember? Wave for real bad days and I still send you stuff to let you know I'm still thinking of you cause it makes you come back faster

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

and when you wanna hear me I don't ever ask you to talk on the phone. I just savor those little huffs of amusement with my entire being.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

cause you're so sweet and you understand me but I have another point..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

what is it?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I wouldn't be good in a relationship. Any kind of em. You’re my only friend..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa.. You would though. Just takes some time to crack the Langa code and there’s plenty of people patient enough to do that. not like it was any kind of chore or anything.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

You are so amazing and sweet that even if it takes that time its super worth getting to know you. I guess is what I’m trying to say. Does that make sense? Anyone would be lucky to have any kind of relationship with you. I'm crazy lucky.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

… it makes sense... I don't know how to say this either but I'm gonna try.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I'm here for it. Anything you need.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki I really... really like you.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa I really REALLY like you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

and I want to be with you for real.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I've shown you enough of it (≧▽≦) you know where I work even.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

and sometimes I've considered just driving it's not that far..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

you could. I'd welcome you with open arms and lots of kisses. (*^3^)/~♡ but I'll come to Naha somehow. Take a taxi and skate around the big city looking for you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

boyfriends? You and me.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

boyfriends ♡♡♡♡ can't contain happiness. Smooching Langa's cute face.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't deserve you..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

dont say that.. it's not even the least bit true.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

it is because you're all sunshine and bright and warm and I'm just.. cold..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa.. you're not cold. And even if you are, we are cuddling so we are sharing heat. Both of us are warm. Yeah? And happy.. don't say boyfriends and then immediately run away.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I won't let you run this time. Just like you won't let me hide my blush.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

staying put cause your hoodie looks so soft..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

it is. You can have this one, when we meet on summer break. Right?

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

right but what if I can't talk

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

I don't even care. I'll be able to see your smile and hold you and kiss you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

yes but she's known for a while. I'll have you know I SUFFERED through a safe sex talk for you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I also suffered through one. Except I guarantee mine was worse because my mom's a nurse..

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

well I can't say the exact same thing as you just did.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

( ꈍᴗꈍ) usually I'd be a lot more insecure but when you called and said it earlier.. I couldn't doubt you even if I tried.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

I don't mean to doubt you.. I just haven't been the same since my dad.. and I used to be better. Still not entirely like everyone else but at least I was good at something to make up for how fucked up my brain is.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

don't say it's fucked up. Nothing about you is fucked up. It's just different. I'm different. and there's nothing wrong with being different. It's what makes the world beautiful.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

what makes you beautiful. I love the way you are. All of it. Cold, warm, talking, quiet, all of it. Because you're *you* wonderful, amazing, you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

Langa, you're sarcastic and silly. Adorable and so sweet and these last few months are the happiest I've ever been. I loved pretending to hang out and all of our sleepy phone calls.

Reki Icon

Mechanic☆

sharing my day with you and hearing about yours. And I know we live a decent distance away from each other but it doesn't matter to me because I feel so close to you. But I'm so freaking excited to hug you.

Langa Icon

˚❅Langaˎˊ˗

…Reki. I can hear your sniffle..

Reki Icon
