[He just. Takes one look at that course.]

There's no way in hell you can do that.

[shortfornow]

[ Looking at Chuuya. ]

Maybe I still have some tricks up my sleeves, Chuuya.

[ Also he has Chuuya he can probably trick to helping him in some parts if needed. ]

[shortforever]

Let's see those tricks, then.

[Gestures to the obstacle course. Have at, Dazai.]

[shortfornow]

Since you're afraid of going first...

[ He'll say that as he moves over to the swinging balancing beam. Putting his hands in his pockets and walking across it while it swings with each step. Bitch be good at balance.

He'll probably be screwed at the wall climb eventually though, but that's for later. ]

Your turn.

[shortforever]

How the hell did you manage that?

[He will follow after Dazai, though. Balance and dexterity is Chuuya's thing too, so balance beam is easy.]

[shortfornow]

I told you I had a few tricks left.

[ Time for the tire swings. ]

Want to take the lead, dear?

[shortforever]

This is easy enough.

[He'll walk on top of the tire swings. Nevermind that that's not how you're supposed to do it.]

[shortfornow]

[ it's fine, cause he'll do the same. It's less of a hassle that way anyways and they won't be hitting his shoulders.

The next part is actually much easier in comparison. He's going to be skipping along the zig zag without word. ]

It seems to vary in difficulty.

[shortforever]

[Chuuya is going to be pulling a Dazai and just hopping from pole to pole.]

None of it is hard so far.

[shortfornow]

[ The next one is interesting because... balance level up ]

Maybe the higher part will be more of a challenge.

[ He's going to offer his hand though. Want to balance together on this? ]

[shortforever]

[Okay, this one? This one is weird. But he'll take Dazai's hand, sure. The anger is still there in him, but it's muted because he's busy puzzling over this challenge.]

What is this, a rope-balance?

[shortfornow]

[ That's fine anger is hot anyways he just needs it tempered down to keep Chuuya from painting a target on his back.

Chuuya is going to feel some interest and something a bit warmer mixed in all the quiet that he feels. He'll start first, using Chuuya as help with balance as he siddles across the rope. ]

They really want people to work out their legs and balance.

[shortforever]

[That interest and warmth helps too, because it makes Chuuya curious. What is Dazai having such positive vibes about?]

Maybe I should let you do it on your own then, to work out your legs and balance.

[shortfornow]

[ gee i wonder. ]

What makes you think I need any help with my balance?

[ He might be holding hands just to have an excuse to.

Once they get to the edge, he'll hop over to the next rope. ]

[shortforever]

Let's see then.

[YEP he's pulling his hand away. Stay up there, Dazai.]

[shortfornow]

[ Sighing before he turns to walk straight instead of sideways crab shuffle. This time he will hold his hands out for balance as he walks across. At first his movements are slower, more tentative as he feels the way the rope moves, but once he has it figured out, he'll move with much more confidence with his steps. ]

Are you merely going to watch, or planning on following after?

[ Asking as soon as he gets to the next rope bit. ]

[shortforever]

I wanted to make sure you didn't fall off first.

[But now that he's prompted to, he'll climb up on the rope too. Arms out, walking slowly, but he'll get around the obstacle.]

[shortfornow]

Were you going to help me up if I did, Chuuya?

[ More like he'll probably laugh at him first.

Time for wall. ]

It's your turn to go first, Chuuya~

[shortforever]

Ha! Easy.

[He will climb right up to the top and sit on it. ]

Well?

[shortfornow]

[ He didn't want Chuuya watching wow. Lifting his arms over his head to test out how his shoulders feel before he starts climbing. He's going to be relying more on his legs and getting his feet into key positions so he's not abusing his arms too much.

He is a little slower than Chuuya, but he does make it. ]

Do I get a prize for making it up?

[shortforever]

[Chuuya will flick Dazai in the forehead. But when he does that, Dazai will feel a flash of genuine affection.]

There's your reward.

[shortfornow]

[ Chuuya in turn can feel a bubble of surprise as Dazai stares at him for a moment. It's not the forehead flick, but the genuine affection without any of the usual range of emotions mixed in.

He'll school his expression back to normal though as he turns to start heading back down. ]

Ah, I was hoping for something more.

[shortforever]

[Things will always be complicated between them, but flirting with the line between 'like' and 'dislike' means there's affection there at least sometimes. And honestly, this is making him feel better after everything from earlier. ]

Finish the obstacle course and you can get a "something else".

[And then he good down on the other side of the wall and waits for Dazai to get down. ]

[shortfornow]

[ At least Dazai can use his people reading skills to do one thing right. ]

So bossy. [ He'll climb about halfway before pushing against it to jump the rest of it. Once he's on the ground, he'll look over at what's next.

Looks like a tower.

Just going to take his hoodie off and tie the sleeves around his hips. There's his arms all out and free of bandages, while his neck is still covered. Looks like the "ladder" stops half way, and then there's a rope ladder further ahead or one could take the swinging logs with their foot holds. ]

Any chance I can demand a double reward for this?

[shortforever]

[He's just. Staring up.at that tower. It looks fun to climb, but Dazai your shoulder.]

Can you even climb that without hurting yourself? You should probably sit this one out.
