    Summary

    Yosuke hated a lot of things. He hated how clumsy he was. He hated how awkward he was. And he hated how generally unlucky he was. Mostly though - when it really came down to it - he hated how effortlessly the stupid, funny, charming, pretty, and overall perfect, Yu Narukami was ramming his way into his life.

    Couldn't things ever stay simple?

    Summary

    Yosuke's doing alright, all things considered. He's in his third year, he has friends, he's not lonely .
    But he does miss Yu, like, a lot. A normal amount, of course.
    While hanging out at Aiya, Rise brings up the phrase 'bisexual' out of the blue. Naoto and Kanji seem hesitant about something, but Rise's pushing the fact that Yosuke needs to look into it. So, he does. He's man enough to admit that he's grown a lot, but he still has a lot of growing left to do.
    Then he figures some shit out. Damn, how did he miss all this?

    --

    “You can’t out a guy to himself,” Kanji said, agreeing with Naoto. “It’s rude as hell.”
    “Out? What?” Yosuke asked.
    “Bisexual means that you’re attracted to two or more sexes or genders,” Naoto explained. “Rise is trying to say something about… who you’re attracted to.”
    “Are you trying to say I’m homophobic? Dude, Rise-chan, not cool! I’ve grown a lot since last year!”

    Summary

    It didn’t have to mean that she and Yukiko were…like that, what they did. Not necessarily.

    Maybe the fumes in Kanji’s bathhouse had just gotten to them, spending so many hours in there fighting and sweating. They’d been tired, and sore, and Chie had eaten too much at Aiya, and hadn’t wanted to walk home after she dropped Yukiko off at the inn, and when they’d gotten under the covers together, maybe all those factors had just come together and gotten a little messy and –

    Chie stands up and busies herself trying to find her jacket and her socks. Maybe it had been nothing but them both being tired and addled from spending too long in the TV.

    When Yukiko comes out of the shower, Chie thinks, they’ll talk about it.
    --
    After saving Kanji from the TV, Chie and Yukiko’s relationship goes in a significantly different direction than either of them expected. Turns out that just facing your Shadow isn’t enough to resolve all your issues – the rest have to be unpacked, one by one, piece by piece.

    Summary

    As a joke, Souji has a habit of asking Yosuke to make out and the answer is always no. When the roles are reversed, the answer's a yes.
