[ It's still the small hours of the morning when Yuri flips his video on to record; he's in one of Otabek's oversized t-shirts, and still in bed from the looks of it. His free arm not holding the phone is slung around Otabek's neck, and at first glance it looks as though Yuri is flipping off the camera- but no, that's his ring finger on proud display, a delicate band of black with inset diamonds clearly and proudly shown off for the world to see. Yuri's smiling like he never does- wide and proud, his eyes shut and scrunched up with obvious delight. If one were to look closely, they might even see the faintest hint of tears still clinging to his blond lashes.

With a jubilant shout, Yuri gets on to let the inhabitants of Riverview know: ]

GUESS WHO'S FUCKING ENGAGED, BITCHES!!!! [ He whoops excitedly, turning his head as though he's about to kiss the side of Otabek's own face, but the video ends before he gets there, preferring that kind of affection for private, thanks. ]

No no no, never.

[minsu rejects the last thing that he says. maybe he's taking it too seriously, but otabek might've meant it seriously.]

I guess I could always work more. I haven't developed a lot of hobbies.

[bringbackgold]

[ Hard to tell with Otabek how serious he might be...but he doesn't backtrack or speak about it. ]

Ah, well. It's a good time to get one.

[ He pauses. ]

What do you like to do? Or like?

[ He kind of feels bad that the guy doesn't have hobbies, but Otabek has several, and well - he's testing the waters with someone who seems eager to go to a wedding. ]

Eating...

[he's starting to feel ashamed. it seems like food is the only thing that he's talked about to anyone here, when he's used to his habits being already known, accepted.]

Music is nice. And I can run for pretty long distances.

Does any of that help?

[bringbackgold]

Do you like cooking, too? Or just eating.

[ THE REAL QUESTIONS. ]

I'm a DJ and do entertainment for several clubs here. Have you considered learning an instrument?

[ Just a thought... ]

[foxtrots]

[minsu feels himself cringe at the mention of cooking, but he doesn't actually dislike it, so. possibility.]

I've only tried it a few times. No one died, but I did ruin a microwave.

[his eyes get a little wider at the second suggestion.]

That's such a cool job. And it would be nice to know how to play the piano. Being able to play it for someone else seems so romantic.

[bringbackgold]

...Ah.

So. No cooking, then.

[ ...hm ]

I love my job. And - if you've wanted to learn, you can. I know of places that offer lessons. I am taking guitar lessons myself.

[foxtrots]

I'd like to try.

[and minsu knows it'll take a lot of repetition and focus, neither one things that he's good at. but he'd still like to try.]

Are you going to play it at your wedding?

[bringbackgold]

I'll send you some information on piano lessons, then.

[ Ponders... ]

I might. Depending on if I'm any good by then.

[ his own worst critic ]

[foxtrots]

I bet your fiance would love it no matter what.

[bringbackgold]

[ Slight hum. ]

Maybe, but I have my own expectations.
