closed - HAPPINESS AU TIME
[ imagine a world where Aguri didn't die, and Korosensei didn't have his body taken over by tentacles, and, somehow, everything worked out just fine, and the two of them are now both teachers of Class 3-E. Somehow. The details aren't important, but the results are!
Of course, he's nothing more than an assistant teacher, seeing as he's a rookie teaching for the first time. But he has the best of mentors to learn from, and a pretty impressive treasure trove of knowledge, to boot. Just as she predicted, he took to teaching like a fish to water - and the change in his personality has been remarkable. Both the students and Aguri herself have really made him open up and become more human than he's probably ever been in his life. Even without the tentacles to help him this time.
It's a pleasant way of life he's never been able to enjoy until now; living simply, connecting with others, seeing and being seen. He'd spent his entire life believing that death was his only skill - now, he's discovering that he has many more that he'd merely been misusing. All of it is thanks to her. The students, too, in part, but her, especially. She was the one that reached out, pulled him from the darkness, and took him into her own life. He's grateful to her from the bottom of his heart, and he doubts that anything he does can ever properly display the depths of his gratitude to her.
But he tries. Every day, it's on his mind - or, perhaps, she's on his mind, according to the jeers of their students. Jeers he can easily laugh off, but which fluster him a little bit more than he expected them to, most likely because there's a sizeable grain of truth in them. If they knew he was going to take her out to lunch on their day off, he can only imagine what they'd be saying... Not that it's a date, of course. She's engaged. Not a date at all.
Nonetheless, he finds himself waiting at the train station for her with a bit of trepidation. That might just be because he's afraid of what she might be wearing today, though. (He has to be seen with her...) ]

That's no reason to shove others around. That kind of carelessness can get you killed. [ a beat. ] ... Well, maybe not anymore.
[ he's used to thinking like an assassin, and it's taking him a while to stop... it's especially hard to focus when he's got her in one arm. How nice. He wonders if her fiance ever holds her at all - then, almost just as quickly, scolds himself for thinking about something like that. Not his business. He just has to play it cool, and maybe partially hope that she'll accidentally push her glorious chest into his arm or something......... i mean of course he isn't ]
... Anyway, about lunch. What do you think of picnics, Yukimura-sensei? I admit, I'm not too fond of sitting in restaraunts.
[ it still feels weird not being in disguise and hanging out in a place like that. ]
no subject
I love them! There's something about eating outside that really makes the food taste better.
[ And it's not uncomfortable silence, broken only by the clinking of utensils on tableware, because her fiancee only chose to dine in the finest of restaurants. ]
no subject
Really? Then we agree. In that case, let's pick something up. I know a nice place we can go...
[ this not-a-date is quickly growing more and more date-like, but he keeps opening his mouth before he can stop himself. Damn tentacles!! ]
There's a good view. If you don't mind me monopolizing your time, that is.
no subject
If I minded, I don't think I would have agreed to spend my day off with you. I'm more than happy to be monopolized for something like this.
... F-for a picnic, I mean! [ A NICE PLATONIC PICNIC. ]
no subject
Ha. You're going to give me a big head if you say things like that. [ he loves it, though. playfully, his hand gives her side a light squeeze. ] I'll be sure to take advantage of your kindness, then. I'll pay for your meal with my meager teacher's salary in return.
[ teaching sure doesn't pay the bills like murder used to....... but he doesn't mind ]
no subject
[ Mostly earnest, but there's still a faint bit of humor there. Even as her cheeks grow redder, no, that was just a squeeze between friends!! ]
I'll try not to eat too much. [ But it all goes to her chest, anyway, which he should prefer-- ]
no subject
[ sort of the truth, though... he feels like he needs to make up for how he's lived up until now by doing more good deeds. Or maybe he just wants to dote on her a little. Both, probably. The blush on her face deepening doesn't go unnoticed, though - after a half-second's pause and a vague look of surprise, he's quick to remove his hand, glancing away from her. He's overstepping his boundaries again. ]
Here's our stop. Let's go. [ but he keeps his light smile on, as usual, and slips through the crowd like a shadow, expecting her to follow - of course, he's keeping an eye on the other passengers, too, so they better not try anything. ] Bento or burgers, by the way?
no subject
And yet, here she is smiling. ]
Burgers! I can do a bento any day.
no subject
I guess that's true. They're still exciting for a foreigner like me. [ he comments lightly, waiting for her to catch up with him just outside the doors. ] It's settled, then. Good thing for me you're easy to please.
no subject
[ For the record. But she'll straighten up after a minute and link arms with him. ] Now then, let's go!
no subject
[ uhHH she's linking arms with him, this was unexpected?! he was just stopping himself from getting too affectionate with her, dammit! He stutters uncharacteristically in surprise - which also probably means there's no way he's getting out of this without her noticing he's flustered. Whatever sharp line he had prepared in response is immediately fumbled and dropped. ]
Yukimura-san... [ he is indeed going, walking forward as casually as he can with the lovely woman who saved his life on one arm, but he's pointedly keeping his eyes forward. There may or may be a faint blush on his cheeks this time. ] ... I appreciate the concern, but I don't think we'll get separated that easily.
[ He doesn't actually mind. Far from it. But he can't accept it... ]
no subject
[ And it's kind of endearing to see this former assassin so incredibly flustered, to be honest. Normally, Aguri would be the one blushing and stammering (and maybe she's still a faint pink), but the tables have turned! ]
no subject
... Maybe you've been spending too much time sitting at your desk and snacking, then? [ fortunately, his tried-and-true tactic of deflecting things with a smile is still pretty dependable. ] The students did tell me you were pretty pathetic in gym class.
[ looks like he's going to bear with it for a little while longer, yes. They spent long enough being separated by a slab of plexiglass; if she wants to hold his arm, so be it. He doesn't want to turn her away. ]
no subject
[ SHE'S SO RED. How dare you, class!! ]
no subject
Only for a second, though, because seeing her get all flustered lifts his spirits. Mr. God of Death actually chuckles a little bit. ]
Aah. You almost make this too easy. Anyway, who said anything about rhythm? You can't dance, either? My, my.
no subject
Dancing doesn't... come up often in our line of work, you realize...
[ STOP MAKING FUN OF HER. ]
no subject
Hmmmmm. It came up for me a few times. [ back when he was doing his 007-but-less-redeemable thing, of course. All smiles again, like nothing was wrong!! Teasing her makes him feel better, what a wonder. ] You know, they hold school dances in some countries, so maybe you should learn, sensei?
no subject
[ HE DOESN'T NEED ANOTHER REASON TO LAUGH AT HER. He's already got about sixteen, if she's counting correctly. ]
WANNA TIMESKIP AHEAD A LITTLE BIT AFTER THIS
That's no fun at all! You should be more open to getting involved in student activities, sensei. [ okay, maybe he is laughing at her... just a little. It's just too easy, and she's entertaining to watch.
Regardless, they're still walking, and he's got his eyes peeled for a convenient (read: moderately cheap) burger place to pick something up from. Once he spots one, he heads for it without hesitation, beckoning her along with him. ]
SLIGHT TIMESKIP AHOY
The flavor experience you get in just one bite is incredible!
[ Aguri, you're talking to a man who has dined all over the world... ]
hella
[ ... he says, while walking and eating fries at a rather alarming rate. So much for that. His big appetite wasn't something that the tentacles gave him, apparently. Once they picked up their food, he was quick to lead her off the beaten path - way off the beaten path, evidently. The train station's been left far behind, and they're walking along a watershed. Have been walking along it for about 20 minutes now. Maybe she can't be blamed for wanting to chow down on that burger. ]
no subject
[ ... Because he reminded her, and of course she'll lower it rather guiltily. Look, being a teacher burns a lot of calories... ]
no subject
[ he holds the box out to her as they start to go up a small hill. said box is already about 50% empty....... thanks shinigami-san ]
no subject
[ A little huffily, and perhaps Aguri shouldn't be half-pouting at a man whose kill count was likely higher than the amount of hideous clothes in her closet, but-- well, it's Aguri, she's not even thinking about something like that right now. But she will take a fry.
And then jog up the hill past him. ]
no subject
[ whatever non-excuse he was about to make is cut off when she suddenly decides to take off. Naturally, he's quick to follow after her, and without so much as dropping a french fry. One doesn't get that enormous kill count without some good agility. But she's right not to think about it. He's left that behind him; even if he hadn't, he could never turn a blade in her direction now. She's thoroughly defeated him.
She also beats him up that hill anyway. There's nothing up there - which is, presumably, exactly the point. It's a clear view out onto the bay of the area they're in, with the water blending away into the sea on one side of the horizon; some rather impressive houses are lined up along the coast on the other side, small from where they're standing, but undoubtedly not-so-small in person. It's not quite late enough yet for the sun to be setting, but the view then would have to be fantastic.
... Of course, sightseeing isn't why the God of Death knows about this spot. He sighs from behind her, scratching the back of his head with his free hand. ]
You spoiled my reveal, sensei. [ a beat; he's smiling anyway. ] How about here?
