"Heeey, you've reached Yang! Well, actually, you didn't reach far enough, 'cause I'm not here right now! But don't yang up! Just leave a message on this baby, and I'll get back to you soon enough, okay?"
[SO PERKY-- she jumped back from being sick lightning fast, too. He's impressed. Go from sniffly one day to trying to uppercut him another.
Naoki waffles over his words for a moment before, remembering the other day when she fell asleep while he was touching her hair, he goes for a joke while he thinks:]
I dunno, I was thinking you could just let me play with your hair for a while.
[ Well, there's something she didn't expect. Sure, he seemed to like touching it briefly, but she didn't think he'd admit that. Still... Naoki's proven that he's not the type to yank, and she'd liked the care he'd taken with it before, when she was sick and sleepy.
If this is his favor... ]
Okay, favor granted. Just don't do anything too crazy, okay?
[FACE IN HIS HANDS THAT WAS DUMB he should've hurried up and said that he was joking she had to go with it didn't she!!! Now it's difficult to back out!
He'll just be here...greatly regretting joking around...until Yang gets here.]
[ It won't take long before she's knocking-- and yes, still glowing with health. It's amazing what sleeping most of the day and being Yang will do for you. ]
[And the door opens and lo and behold miracle upon miracle, Naoki's actually wearing a hoodie and still wearing a look of mild regret that he smooths over--]
[For a long moment, he's blank and uncomprehending before he glances down at himself and oh right. Naoki makes a face at her.] Ha ha. It's not that weird, c'mon.
But he steps to the side, waving for her to come inside his... really quite plain apartment. There isn't that much scattered about. There's a stack of books and magazines off to one side, and a little cloth bag where his items from home are, but otherwise not much in the way of decorating.]
I dunno, I coulda caught you in the middle of something. [Casually pretending he's not touched by her words... it doesn't work. Mainly 'cause he's started smiling.] But, guess my luck was better than that.

I guess I should probably tell you the favour I decided on already, huh? [Since he's nearing the end of the extended time limit and all.
Spoilers: he couldn't come up with one thing. He's just gonna wing it and hope something pops into his head.]

Do you want me to come over, then? You don't live that far, right?
voice
[He unthinkingly mentions his address about here BUT GURL WAIT DON'T BE BLITHE ABOUT THIS]
voice
[ click.
Whew, what a relief that he only wants to touch her hair. She thought he would have come up with something totally crazy by now. ]

I wasn't doing anything exciting when you called, and why would I drag my feet when it's a chance to hang out with you?

So how did you want to do this, anyway?

I meant to say earlier, but I was kinda joking, y'know...

Eh, for your sake I won't.
