[closed] sorting out memories

Who: Ritsu and Gokudera
What: Ritsu arranges a meeting to help Gokudera undo his brainwashing
When: August
Where: The gymnasium
Warnings: Mild body horror

Ritsu, true to his word, waits a week without contacting Gokudera. In truth, it's a week he feels he's spent mostly unfruitfully - the more acquainted he is with his surroundings, the more disappointed he is. Moldy vending machines? A robot that throws drinks at bar patrons (okay, admittedly, that one can be funny to watch)? Living arrangements that mostly give him absolutely no privacy to speak of? Honestly, a pain doesn't even begin to describe it; even the simple matter of looking for a comfortable place to take Gokudera proves to be an annoyance. If possible, he'd like it to be someplace with beds or at least a seat of some sort so Gokudera can rest afterwards. He'd also prefer privacy, given the nature of what they're about to do.

The intimacy lounge fits his requirements best, but... Well, how does one begin to invite someone they've just met to a place like that? It's shifty beyond belief - there's no way it wouldn't make him sound like some kind of creep! Even if explains his reasons to Gokudera and Gokudera is fine with it, he's not comfortable with it, given what the intimacy lounge is built for. What if someone sees? What if there are rumors?!

And so, after much deliberation, Ritsu decides to settle for the gym, firing a message off to Gokudera.

"Gokudera-san. Can you meet me in the gym?"

"Right now? I'll be there in a few minutes," is Gokudera's response.

He's wondering why the other chose the gynasium when there is a medbay, and this situation sounds like something that could knock him down. It would be a far better place to rest, but there are medbots that could interfere, or see the situation for what most could assume is Gokudera literally being shot, when it's something as simple as having his memories restored.

If only Ritsu knew the kind of world Gokudera lived in before he came to Anchor. The invite to the intimacy lounge would be strange, but Gokudera wouldn't be bothered. However, his boyfriend might have a problem with the implications of activities there.
