I headcanon that once eiji found that his feelings for ash were mutual he started doing like pretty bad attempts at flirting knowing it makes ash laugh and now i need drabbles of eiji making ash laugh with his awful flirting moves
includes nongraphic nsfw jokes
A good amount of desperation led Eiji to this point.
In his defense, English isn't his first language. Everyone knows that. He's been getting more fluent with the submersion into the language that being in America offers, but there are still certain things—certain nuances—that Eiji doesn't quite understand.
Especially when it comes to pickup lines.
He started off by asking Alex—which, in retrospect, was probably not the best idea. This led to a whole coaching session by the gang, and resulted in Eiji saying, "Ash, since you lost your virginity, do you want to take mine?"
Eiji still gets flustered just thinking about it. But the best part—the part that got Eiji invested in the idea of bad pickup lines in the first place—is that Ash laughed when Eiji said it.
This was pretty shortly after Eiji met the whole gang, and he didn't really understand what he was saying. He knew it had sexual connotations, of course—he knew the word virgin, but at the time he wasn't entirely sure what he had just asked Ash, other than that Alex had insisted on it.
Ash, on the other hand, did understand what Eiji was saying, and seemed to know immediately that the gang was responsible. And he laughed. Didn't take it seriously, leaving Eiji flustered and a million sorts of embarrassed. But he had laughed.
Ever since then, Eiji's been trying to have a repertoire ready of bad pickup lines—never quite as bad as that first one, but just enough to throw off Ash's game and, ideally, make him laugh. He's grown a little bolder since he realized that his feelings toward Ash are reciprocated. Alex assured him early on: If anyone else had tried to pull that shit with him, Boss wouldn't have laughed. And the other guy probably wouldn't have made it out alive.
It took a few months and several conversations with Ash himself before Eiji actually believed it, but now—during these times when he's holed up in the condo with the gang, Eiji discusses whatever pickup line of the day he found online, screening it with them and judging based on their laughter if he's missing on something vital.
"What about this one?" Eiji asks, reading off of one of the many tablets scattered across the room. " 'Can you pass me an inhaler? Because you just took my breath away.' "
Bones snorts. "Corny! I like it. But what about something a little nerdier? 'Feeling thirsty? Because my body is over 50% water.' "
Eiji feels himself flush. "I'm not going to ask if he's thirsty, Bones." That was a mistake Eiji made early on.
"I've got it!" Alex yells. " 'Do you like plums? Then can I offer you a date?' Get it? Because you're fruity."
"Oh my god," Eiji mumbles. "Next!"
Bones tries again. " 'Do you have a name, or can I just call you mine?' "
"He literally has two names, Bones, and I know both of them. No."
Kong starts laughing suddenly, and Eiji perks up. "Got a good one for us?"
Nodding, Kong says between bouts of laughter, " 'Do I ... Do I need a library card, or can I just check you out?' "
... Huh. It really is perfect, in a way. It's the sort that'll make Ash laugh, for sure, and it's got the library in there. "All right, men," Eiji says triumphantly, "I think we have a winner for today."

Sing: Where is Ash?
Kong: Japan.
Sing: Oh! I guess, he won't be back for like a year. Haha.
Bones: He is coming back next month. The wedding will be held here.
Sing: Wedding?....
Sing: Wait- Don't tell me-
Bones: Yes.
Sing: ...Who proposed?
Alex: Eiji did. At the airport. Ash said yes.
Sing: At the fucking airport! Those guys are crazy.
Alex: ...I never thought Shorter would win his silly bet. I owe him money.
Sing: So do I.

Chapters: 1/1
Word Count: 5821
When Eiji glances at himself, it is Ash's build that meets him, Ash's skin. Everything adds up, but ...
"How did you ... ?" Eiji manages, startled again at the sound of his—Ash's—voice.
"Just a little correction to the banana fish drug," Dino purrs. He places a hand on Eiji's face, palm enveloping his cheek, and Eiji tries to move away despite the restraints strapping him to the thin mattress. "Anything is possible with enough money and power. And you'll learn quickly that you don't have enough of either."
Money, maybe. But if this disgusting bastard thinks that Eiji has no power, he's drastically misjudged how much Ash means to him.
Ash gave himself up to Golzine, with no plans to escape. Eiji, though? Eiji's been planning to get Ash out since he disappeared.
And now he's on the inside. He can get Ash out easier than ever, now.
If there's one conclusion out of this situation so far, it's that Dino Golzine may have underestimated one Eiji Okumura.
While in Golzine's custody, Ash is injected with a variant of banana fish that causes the victim to swap bodies with the person who's most important to them.
