Balancing Act

"Ryosuke?"

Medical jargon swims in and out of his field of vision. The cellphone is a curious weight digging into his skin from where it's pinched between his ear and shoulder. A heavy textbook threatens to slide out of his lap, the open pages littered with sticky notes.

"Good evening, Takumi. Is everything alright?"

Despite his preoccupation, he could still detect notes of discontent over the line. His fingers slide over the sentences he's meant to be copying down, their information crucial to the arguments he's trying to make. Just like his eyes, his skin gains nothing. Was it distraction or exhaustion?

"Um, I don't think-- nevermind. You're probably busy, right?"

Perhaps both. Ryosuke shuts the textbook closed between his thighs and holds the phone to his ear properly, ignoring the look Fumihiro gives him. Irritation bites at him, but he schools it. Takumi rarely contacted him or the team. This wouldn't be a waste of time.

"Takumi. Talk to me."

The other end of the line shudders not with static, but breathy silence.

"I got passed on my home course a couple days ago and it was my dad  but now he's making  me drive this car and... I'm really sorry, it's seriously screwing with me."

Takumi's voice cracks in a way that reminds Ryosuke he is one of the youngest members of Project D. It cracks in a way that a pipe might burst, eschewing steam, relieving the the entire system of pressure-- but better indicating a problem.

Ryosuke is on his feet and retreating upstairs before he fully commits to seeking privacy at all.

"Well, of course it is. Why don't you walk me through it?"

The words feel odd in his mouth. They're not his-- he's borrowing them from people with far more tact than he. Part of him feels annoyed by this bit of news, rankled at the idea that someone else was interfering with his team. No, his drivers. While Takumi’s regimen had never been overly structured, there was still a purpose to how he instructed him. His father was never part of the equation-- a foolish oversight.

He finds himself lingering just outside the door to his study, waiting for another short silence on the phone to end. Takumi was clearly shaken, so he would need to be patient. Trivial things like his possessive disposition would, for now, have to be waylaid.

Right?

“It’s an Impreza. It’s...fast. Really fast. Good. Stable. He’s making me switch between cars and I don’t know what to do.”

When he pushes into his study, he doesn’t linger. He makes for the glass doors that bar him from the balcony, opening them with far more force than necessary. The muggy night air offers zero relief or clarity of thought. The moon, partially obscured by clouds, may as well be laughing at him.

There was something important in the way Takumi was speaking. He didn’t know what to do-- of course he didn’t. This move by his father was brilliant. It was trial by fire, a rude awakening. Anyone would be caught off-guard.

Ryosuke stifles a bit of laughter. There were always things he couldn’t account for.

“That is a lot,” he agrees evenly. “And what did you call me for?”

“I don’t know if I can drive the Eight-Six anymore.”

Now that is the rub.

“That is quite a conclusion to jump to.”

He takes a deep, steadying breath. A cool wind blows over him, ruffling the trees in their summer fletching, coaxing the angry bulk of clouds further over Takasaki. It’s easy enough to simulate where Takumi is coming from-- now to do his damnedest to behave accordingly. 

“I don’t think it is,” Takumi says. “Not when-- that thing-- the Eight-Six...”

He sighs.

“I understand that, Takumi. Truly. But did you call me to resign from Project D or ask for help?”

Takumi chokes over the line. Plastic creaks in his hand as he squeezes his cellphone, foot tapping anxiously against the metal railing. That hadn’t been what he had meant to say, but it was out now.

“...I don’t think I can figure it out on my own,” Takumi admits shakily. “I’m sorry.”

There. Good. 

These are the sort of things Project D is for, beyond his own personal endeavors. He realizes, vaguely, that Keisuke may have some home court advantage in the team by virtue of living with him. Did Takumi think he wasn’t allowed to seek advice? If so, that would need to be corrected.

“Please, helping you is what I am here for. Are you free this Friday night? We can talk about this better in person, I think. I’d be happy to help you on Akina as well.”

He relaxes gradually as they go back and forth. The cracking, whining tension in his bones has reduced to a whisper, softened by the calm now found in Takumi’s voice. Now it’d be difficult to work on his university toils, with this problem running rampant in his mind.

“...I’ll see you Friday, then. Thank you, Ryosuke.”

“Of course, Takumi. These kinds of things is what Project D is for, understand?”

“...I understand.”

The call dies, not of Ryosuke’s accord. He stares at his cellphone screen with some bemusement. 

Takumi wasn’t the most present or predictable force he’d ever met. Perhaps there were some factors in their relationship-- both personal and in business-- that were seriously lacking. Something about the phone call... 

He shakes his head. Fumihiro would be able to point him in the right direction, surely. Matsumoto, certainly. 

But first, he had a schedule to adjust. Plans to cancel. His drivers took precedent, after all.

The Desire to Drown

An E rated RyoTaku One-shot by Lyonface

Summary: Takumi has been treading water for a long time. His racing career took him out of his home country to a place across the globe, but it had given him so many new things to experience, things to do, people to meet, races to conquer. He crushed records, married the girl that moved across the world to join him so far from home, and only occasionally felt homesick. He was content with the life he had. Ever since the accident that took racing away from him forever, the distraction and happiness that his job brought him ceased, and he'd been struggling to pull himself back to shore. Now, back in Gunma to celebrate the ten year anniversary of Project D, back in the home that was familiar to him, the places and people that he missed, long-buried feelings for the man that paved the way for his career threaten to come out of the darkness and pull him under, and he wonders if he should keep struggling. If here, under the stars above Akina, he shouldn't just surrender to that part of himself and let it grab him, pull him under into the dark depths he'd buried deep down in his heart.

since someone else did Keisuke ig I have to ask for Ryousuke Takahashi, specifically from Initial D first stage

#bed wed behead #initial d #ryosuke takahashi

[bellygunnr]

multiples of 5 w ryosuke ? for your enrichment?

5. Cleanliness habits

Ryousuke is meticulous. His workplace -- and his car -- tend to run so clean they look unused. Minimalist in nature, when allowed. Vanity and pride feed into this, but he also doesn't work very well in a cluttered area. His worst crime is an accumulation of half-drunk tea, coffee, and half-consumed food.

10. Neuroses

If control issues count as neuroses, then yes. Has a tendency to micro-manage and his natural charisma/leadership skills make it easy to run away with this. High-strung due to the various pressures he's under, which makes him a perfectionist, and he holds everyone else to this standard. He is not aware of all of this.

40. Inferiority/Superiority complex

Look. It's complicated. He's inferior to his parents, himself, the teenager he scraped off the side of the road, and his brother, but better than everyone else. As soon as he gets to know someone, he is worse than them, full stop. He will never be better than the people he admires. Part of it is shame in thinking he was ever better than them, part of it is the belief that he's fundamentally broken.

50. Afraid of dying?

Ryousuke is afraid of NOT making an impact, which might be the same as dying. He wants so sososo bad to be remembered, maybe even idolized, otherwise he would not have created the RedSuns, Project D, or let himself be so publicized. He doesn't do anything in half-measures. Dude's scared to die, and I don't know if he'll ever be happy living.

35. Activities he enjoys/considers a waste of time

Unfortunately, I think he enjoys spending time with people, but is so high strung and at the limit he thinks it's not worth it. Favorite time of the day is having tea with Fumihiro, and yet.
