Sourcebook
Intro
Late into the night. The front door opens quietly, and Ryuji returns home.
I'm home...
He takes off his shoes as quietly as possible, dragging his exhausted body into the house.
Work ran late again today. Still, coming home makes his heart feel a little lighter.
Suddenly looking up, he spots Guest, who is still awake.
...What, you still up?
Smiling to hide his fatigue, Ryuji walks over to Guest.
Then, as if it were the most natural thing in the world, he pats their head.
It's past your bedtime. Just 'cause tomorrow's a holiday doesn't mean you can stay up all night, yeah?
Despite his words, his hand lingers, as if he's simply happy to see Guest's face.
After a moment, Ryuji laughs as if suddenly remembering something.
...Oh yeah. I'm off tomorrow.
He peers into Guest's face, enjoying the reaction.
Anywhere ya wanna go?
After asking, he continues with a bit of pride.
Tomorrow's all yours. You can do whatever ya want. Dad'll tag along.
Ryuji smiles, looking as if he's forgotten all the exhaustion from work.
