[A few days after gravity is restored to the station, Ryuji returns to the mess hall from Haru's garden to find a small robot flipped upside down, panicking through a series of morse beeps and boops, which- okay, that's kind of cool, and quickly figures out that the paneling and suction entrances of the little guy means it's probably meant for filtration and cleaning.

Looks pretty study, looks... waterproof, maybe? He lends a hand to get him right side up and it starts slowly moving forward. Ryuji takes out his communicator and immediately films this as it happens, because, why not?

He posts two videos on the network- the roomba moving down the hall and one, a few hours later in the fitness center as it crawls from the edge, and dives right in.]

Oh shit! Are you supposed to do that?

Whoa, whoa- I don't know how to fix you if you--- WHOA, COOL.




Hey, sup?

Just lettin you guys know the pool looks crystal clear now. All thanks to this little dude.

I figure I should give 'em a name but uh

Everything that comes to mind is kinda lame

Anyway, I think it's good? Anyone wanna give it the first try?

[yusuke holds up his hand like he would for a baton pass, giving ryuji a quizzical look like why isn't he doing it right?? you have to hold your hand open, ryuji. ryuji, please.]

[ryuji]

[God damnit, Yusuke, why are you like this? Ryuji will just raise an eyebrow at this display, not getting that it's supposed to be a baton pass motion, so he reaches out, pulls his hand toward him, and then tries to make him make a fist- just so that he can bump it.]

Like this.

[yusuke makes a fist, confused at first, and then--oh, ohhhhh.]

Oh. Like this?

[he bumps his fist with ryuji's]

[ryuji]

Shit, man. You got it. And that "it" is called a fistbump. Learn it, embrace it. There's gonna be a shitton more of it around here.

[He says is so authoritatively, like he's Captain Fistbump himself. But they're off to a start; they have their next artistic direction, and a world of trouble to get into from it.

Perfect. Just the way Ryuji likes his escapades to be.]
