[HE ISN'T DRINKING....YET. The music is so loud that Date's sudden appearance sort of startles him. He grips the cue like he might turn it into a bat...but then realizes it's only Date. His shoulders relax.]
… I know we’re in hell, but you are really jumpy, kid.
[ did he nearly get a pool cue to the head? wow. ]
It’s … pool? I think. Pretty common bar game.
[ balls balls, ballsballsballsballs. ] You have to get the balls in the holes. [ :) ] Normally in specific order but I don’t have a clue what that order is.
w0, tuesday
He's piddling by the pool tables, holding one of the player's cues in his hand even though it doesn't look like he's set anything up for a game yet.]

[Hmmm. He looks at the cue and then at the table with the balls formed into a triangle at one end.
He reaches out with the cue and jabs at the ball triangle to knock them around. Like one goes into a hole. Then he looks at Date.
:D?]

Hell, remember? They're start playing bad idol music in a minute. Like the oldschool AKB48 stuff.
[ well.
i mean.
he did his best and therefore no one can criticise him. probably. date claps. ]
no subject
You know AKB48...?
[wow...
He bows a little at the chest. He did so well. Not hitting the balls at all like he's meant to hit them.]
no subject
[ i genuinely had to think if date would know them and yup. time frame checks out. they were Big Popular like six years ago. ]
This time we make it harder. You have to take the balls out of their casing.
[ free the balls, akira. ]

[His life is a lie (no). Thank God for someone else who isn't a person not knowing what anything is. Including showers.
He glances from Date to the balls on the table. ??????? He reaches out tentatively to get a ball while putting the cue on the edge of the table.
And then he tries to break in apart with both his hands? He can't. He strains. But still.]

[ ...
he's trying so hard. ]
What are you doing?
no subject
He sags with frustration.]
You said to take them out of their casing.

[ he could just … let this continue. he could watch.
free entertainment.
instead, he just slowly picks up the plastic triangle… eases it away from the collection of b a l l s and then waggles it slightly. ]
no subject
HELP US BOTH]

he just moves the plastic triangle AWAY and takes the ball from akira’s hands. ]
Just try and hit them into the pockets. With the cue.
