( r6 ) talking-head: ryuji.

Ryuji is invited to take a seat right in front of the cameras, while the overseer smiles at them brightly and waves.
And asks them questions, of course.
They don't have to answer truthfully, but they should be aware that every single last thing they're saying might very well end up in the final cut.
Have fun!
week two.
no subject
that all happened.
Let's have a normal-ass interview, shall we?]
Ah, Sakamoto! How are you feeling after the ceremony?
no subject
He's. Kind of bored, honestly. He has nothing to do in this house!! ]
Oh, I'm fine.
[ A shrug. ]
Kinda worried about Akechi but I can't really make him do what I think he should do. We talked, ya know? Like you suggested. So, things are way better now but he's still being a bitch to everyone else, even if it ain't directed at me anymore.
no subject
Ah, so you did talk! I'm glad to hear that you were both able to come to an understanding!
no subject
Yeah! Shit is better now. Uhm. For us. Not for everyone else, h-haha...
[ . . . ]
Dude, it's super weird being the perfect match, I gotta say. I wonder if they're gonna get anyone else right.
no subject
It truly must be odd to be somewhat on the outside looking in at this point.
Still, I feel as though the group could still use your good attitude and cheer, Sakamoto.
no subject
It is! I — I kinda wonder what it'd be like if I didn't make my match week one? How I'd feel now? But I'd prolly still like Wednesday the most so I wanna believe we'd have ended up getting to know each other anyway.
[ He has a type!!! ]
... Ya think so? I don't wanna be annoying though. But I still wanna be involved. I really want to help them figure this out — and I want Akechi to get his wish.
no subject
Of course! Even if you found your Perfect Match early, you are still a part of the group.
They are still struggling their way through feeling out their own relationships, some some friendly reassurance will surely go a long way!
no subject
I can do that! I can totes do that. I'll be like the — the mmmmmascot?
[ wait. ]
No, don't quote me on that. Ugh, Morgana would never let me live it down.
no subject
The others will certainly not hear it from me.
Besides which, you don't have to be a mascot or anything like that. Simply being their friend should be more than enough, I'd imagine!
no subject
Okay. I'll be their friend. [ . . . ] Hey, how many of these shows have you run, Tsukasa?
no subject
[isn't it obvious--okay, no, Tsukasa does not think so.]
I've acted as an extra in a movie before, but I am usually a stage show actor.
Why do you ask?
no subject
Just... wonderin' how other seasons went. Ya know, like if they got perfect matches before or if people lost their wishes or whatever.
[ He has not watched the previous seasons, at all. Yes, even the season with Akira. ]
no subject
Well, I did watch the seasons for research before I accepted the offer.
[If that helps??]
Only one person has lost their wish before in five previous seasons. And there have been a few Perfect Matches found across all of them.
no subject
Oh!
[ That does reassure him. Phew. ]
Cool. I'm trying to understand how different it is this time compared to... other times? What we can do better as a group and stuff? What do you think?
no subject
I really do mean it when I say that you're all doing excellently. The number of lights you got the second week is the most anyone has ever found that early.
[Even so...]
There are definitely still a few problem areas where you don't know much, though, as a group.
no subject
Can you tell me or would that be cheating?
no subject
[he is definitely not the end-all be-all because he...... would spill too easily so they didn't tell him.]
But I believe Miss Arnault, Josuke and Kat-san have a large number of options, and are still trying to figure them out. They are all very likeable people, so it isn't a large surprise.
no subject
[ Huh. That's news to him! But it only takes like, a moment of thinking where even Ryuji can tell that's a wise move on the producers part.
He nods at the assessment though and considers it. ]
Yeah... it seems like Will's got caught up in a bunch of it the past two times. All the focus is on him. Ritsuka and Lessing seem... pretty solid after this, unless we're super off the mark.
But those three, def murky as hell. Everyone likes 'em! And not in the Will way. They're just generally liked. Hell, they could be each other, couldn't they?
no subject
Regardless, he just nods.]
It certainly could be. There's no reason why it couldn't.
I imagine their matches will be difficult to narrow down, even though you've all done well so far.
no subject
Someone waaaaay smarter than me is gonna have to like, grab a whiteboard and try and figure it out. We got so close last time, wouldn't it be crazy if we get it next round? Being off by one is like, worse than any other option, I think.
no subject
Tsukasa thinks and does not say.]
Don't think of it that way! If you are off by one next week, then you've simply stepped even closer to the solution. And you still have the Truth Booths as well, of course!
no subject
I really hope we're able to figure out who to put in the truth booth this week and I hope it's another perfect match. It's gotta be like... one of the pairs from this past ceremony, right? So, wait, then it's gotta be the one who's not a match, right?
[ Tsukasa is not the person to answer the questions, Ryuji. ]
no subject
I'm afraid that is something you will all have to decide on together.
It may be a little complicated, though, given...
[......... the high tempers rn.]
no subject
... We'll figure it out.
[ He BELIVES in them. Maybe! ]
