[the look on Nikkari's face says what he thinks of the whole Zoro situation, which is "that's messy and I'm not touching that if I don't have to." instead, he shrugs and decides to focus on the easier part.]
Reality hopping? Tell me about it. How'd that even happen? And was it actual other realities?
[nikkari is everything that baren loves and adores, complete with the total dodging of messy situations. nice. he grins and moves on to what they both seem to agree is
simpler????]
Should be. You know how the ocean is grey and gross now? [He reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone, moving to his pictures and showing Nikkari pictures of a beautiful green and blue underwater landscape] I went here.
And I crashed a wedding. One of my favorite vacations yet.
No way! [this is exclaimed when he sees the pictures of the ocean, and he sounds as excited as a child to look at it. it's amazing.] And did you mean to crash the wedding? Or is it just one of those things that happened to you? I kinda wish I was there to see it all firsthand.
[A shake of his head. Most of his team wasn't bad to work with... but yeah, he would've taken Nikkari any single day of the week if he had just the opportunity.]
For once I can say I accidentally crashed it... but now it makes me want to crash one on purpose?

Be my Nika.
Or at least not flinch when I call you that.
That's gonna annoy the shit out of him. To be fair, I won't lie - but if he gets the wrong idea about us, I won't complain either.
[Cruel? Yes. Necessary? In Baren's head - of course.]
no subject
Got it. Now's where I get to ask you if you were just looking for an excuse to call me that.
["my Nika." he's never living this down, is he. it's far too easy for Nikkari to settle into the idea of being called that.]

[was he supposed to deny it
that doesn't sound like fun]
no subject
Say it as often as you want. I almost expected you to ask for worse.
[which he would have agreed to because let's be real with ourselves here.]
no subject
Yeah? Like what?
no subject
I don't know. I'm just saying if the nickname doesn't irritate him enough, then if we need to go to more blatant measures, I'm for it.

I'm actually feeling sushi and calamari sometime soon if you're in.
[why not just make a date night out of it]
no subject
[date night is fun? date night means he gets to dress up a little and usually laugh until his stomach hurts from it.]
no subject
Then let's do that. Not today - you have to catch up on some other things first. Can't do that when I'd be too focused on the sushi.
no subject
[bros having date night. the most platonic thing ever.]

Baren decides to get one out of the way:]
Well, Z thinks he's in love with me.
So we're waiting that storm out.
But also yeah, I went reality hopping last month. Fought a couple of giant monsters? I'm a badass now. Kinda nice.
