[It's late in the afternoon when Jacob finally decides to make a general call to the residence of the city. He has the information that he needs to know and he trusts that everything else will come with time. He isn't in a rush and when he makes his call he's calm.
Jcaob is wearing his new fall threads, a dusty brown jacket with a dark blue scarf loosely wrapped around his neck. He's still unshaven but his hair has been brushed and is now pointed in the same direction. It's dark behind him but easy to see the warm hazel glint in his eyes.]
It's a beautiful night out. There are a lot of stars. [It's unclear where he is but he tilts the screen to show hundreds of little dots of light freckling a blanket of black.] Hopefully this doesn't wake anyone. I've become a bit of a night owl.
[Night wasn't a safe time of day for someone who can't see in the dark.]
I got my job back at Gary's carpentry but I honestly want to do something more than make furniture. If you need anything, let me know. I was a mechanic before this. So I can work with just about anything.
Seriously, anything.
[It's amazing how easily he fell back into his life here.]
Ah, yeah. [He grins.] It's Jacob. If you don't know me but want to find me.
I consider myself pretty easy to find.
[ooc: If you want to do an action, feel free to tag my test drive post. I'm keeping it as game canon since it's my umbrella for general arrival interactions.]

He had never felt this way before and he looked forward to what feelings Yuki would introduce him too.
"Just tell me what you feel." Jake leaned forward and kissed Yuki's temple before settling back on the ground, his gaze finally flitting to the stars. "If something makes you uncomfortable, let me know, and I'll do the same. As long as we tell each other, it'll work out." He was confident though he had no right to be. Possible because he had waited so long to feel the warmth of Yuki's skin next to his.
"I like being close to you." They were light touches but it was important to Jacob. He hadn't been this close to anyone in a long time.

How he felt. He could start with giddy, lighthearted, grateful, confused, and yet scared to lose Jacob again. And then of course he felt..what was the right word? Smitten? Like whenever he appeared, nothing and no one else in the world mattered. And whenever Jacob left him, he always immediately wanted to text the man and tell him that he missed him. But he hadn't because that was too much too soon.
Yuki wanted to talk to sensei about this to do a sort of reality check, but he had the feeling that it wasn't going to be anything other than a teasing thing. And so he was on his own with this. But he'd been on his own with Machi as well so it was okay really. And then again maybe the other wasn't looking for an answer right at the moment so he tried to relax a little and looked back over at the other. "I can do that."
Of course he smiled at hearing the confession and moved closer so that he was right next to Jacob. "I like being close to you too." It was comforting and warm and welcome in ways he hadn't ever really known.

Jacob squeezed Yuki tightly to him and looked up at the stars. He felt at peace, for the first time since he'd been kidnapped at the age of 13. "That's all I'll ask of you Yuki. If you can be honest with me. I'll be honest with you too. We'll get to know each other, grow closer. We might fight but I know that we'll work through it." He suddenly knew where his confidence came from.
"I know it'll work out because I've liked you for over a year. Even when we were separated." It'd taken time for him to get the memories back but he had and he hadn't stopped caring for Yuki.

A lifetime without it was kind of hard to get used to but he would work through it. He was more than aware of his flaws and smiled a little when he heard the comment about fighting. "I'm really not interested in that, but I'm sure it'll happen." And if things went the way they had, they would probably argue over Yuki being too worried about him.
The last bit softened him and he looked at Jacob. "If I have any say, you're not going anywhere."

He did have family back on his version of Earth but they would understand. He had searched the world to find where he belonged in it and the only peace he got was with Yuki at his side. He wasn't going to leave if he had the option to stay by Yuki's side. He hoped that Yuki knew how important this was to him.
It was hard to open his heart but Yuki had found his way in before Jacob had even realized it. At first, it had scared him but now he was glad. If he could have loved anyone in the world, he was happy that it was Yuki. "You're the most important thing to be Yuki." Though he would like to send his family a note to let them know that he's happy.

Jacob's words made him slightly turned red of course. Somehow this man had an easy way of doing that. Only Shigure with his suggestive comments had the ability to do that, which unfortunately had been in front of Miss Honda once. He really wanted to smack the Dog a lot when that had happened.
All he could do at the moment was smile because all of the other things..they were just not going to be something that he did even if he really wanted to.. "I'm going to remind you that you said that for when you get mad at me."
want to wrap up or skip to Jake walking Yuki home?
"I don't know about that." He teased lightly. "I think I can get mad, even if you're my favorite person here." Jake leaned down and pressed another kiss to Yuki's temple. He then turned and looked up at the stars, taking a deep breath.
