[Haru. Haru... Wait, hadn't he met a- HOLY SHIT! It was the guy from the forest! His face turned bright red.]
You! We-! [Oh hell! It was "fish!" - Er. Haruka! The memory was clear enough.] I mean, I just- It was the water... [A little mumble. Because... it hadn't completely been the water... Ugh.]
Umm... did you... build a fire or turn the heater on?
[Haru waits impassively for Kyo to stop floundering and half-finishing sentences, until he makes a few helpful suggestions - although nothing he hasn't already tried]
The heat's on.
Hot bath doesn't help either. [Clenches his teeth towards the end to keep them from chattering]
[He heard his teeth grit and he knew why. It wasn't like he was sitting on his bed in swimtrunks. He had every blanket he owned and more piled on his own bed.]
Tsk... you too, huh. I heard crap on the network about it... [Some stupid curse maybe.] Do... do you want to go to the hotsprings again? [But if hot water hadn't helped.] Or just... come over or something?
[That was the only other guess he could hit on. And really... he was cold enough he didn't feel like thinking too hard.]
Is that fine? [Haru asked, having given up on the hot springs. It was marginally more effective than the bath, but not enough to make it worth soaking with strangers without a swim suit. Not nearly]
[The other thing about the hotsprings. Even if they did help, the second you stood up, you were going to die of freeze shock or something.]
Yeah, I guess. [There wasn't anything going on at his place.] Lemme give you directions.
[There was something about Haru that earned a slight... well... he didn't just let anyone come over to his house, but Haru was... He'd already been naked with the guy and kissing him!]
In the third district? [Ie. close, because who really wants to trudge far out into the snow if they don't have to?
[But Haru is also out of options and nearly out of patience. He hasn't managed to stay warm on his own and he can't stand the constant cold either. So he'll depend on other people again, even someone he doesn't know as well as Makoto or Rin - because he's also learned there are some things you just don't go to your friends for first, especially here]
Yeah. [Kyo quickly found the directions and mailed them to Haru over the device, not breaking the phone conversation though. It'd show up on Haru's screen in a moment.]
It shouldn't be too far. [He shifted a bit and then scowled around the room. Well, guess he was going to have to get up and move shit. Blankets would be going out into the couch room, unless they decided to just sit in the bedroom or something...]
Start the water. [And this time he does hang up, leaving it ambiguous if he meant "run the bath" or "get the tea ready". He's got blankets to stuff into ... well, he's not sure what, but he'll throw them together and then head over]
Brought her-?! [Oh. A cat. He flushed red almost instantly and was very glad this was voice-only.] Well why didn't you say that in the first place, Haru? Jeeze...
