[ genji takes a moment to slurp up some of his soup - noisily. it's been years and he still does it, sorry hanzo. he licks his lips before he speaks again. ]
You are forgiven. He and I have had the question before, since we are very close. But it is platonic, not sexual.
So, if you are interested in seeing if he is curious about humans, you have nothing to fear from me.
[The sound is still as irritating and iconic as ever. He frowns at first but the familiarity ultimately makes him smile.]
I see. [Hanzo nods slowly, wondering whether that is by choice or because they aren't physically able to carry out the ways most might act on consensual attraction.]
I---what?? No. Do not be ridiculous, brother.
[Oh he definitely hears it and he hates that. There's no way Genji knows anything. He must be bluffing. Anything to avoid the fact that to his own kin he is painfully easy to read.]
I have never seen you as a challenge, and do not plan to start now. I have no romantic interest in your master, Genji. He is simply the first omnic that I have befriended, so apologies if I am too curious.
[He gives a smug sort of laugh then stands to begin clearing off the table. Still, he's glad Genji did come to visit, and more so that he brought food. If he's honest he hadn't been taking good care of himself, and didn't have much of a reason to until his brother arrived.]
I am not the same as when we were boys. I know how to get what I want when I want it. In most situations.
[ genji lets hanzo clear off the table for now, content to play the lazy little brother in this scenario. he's just glad he was able to see that hanzo had cleaned the place up. ]
So you claim!
[ genji lifts his soda to hanzo, then looks around. ]
I should bring you some plants, or decorations. It would put some more life into this place.
I strongly suggest you do not argue this one, brother. I have memories of your best moments.
[Mental highlights of all the times Genji's behavior has turned around to bite him or both of them in the ass. Some occasions more hilarious than others.]
Plants? Perhaps. Do not bother with the decorations, though. I do not plan to live here for much longer. I am working toward a bigger, nicer place in Level 1.
[Hanzo doesn't say anything about how he's been growing and hoarding his chroma to carry out his plan. Instead he just smirks at his brother, setting dishes in the sink and starting to wash.]
At any rate, you will be welcome there as you are welcome here. Whenever you need a safe place to rest your head. Or a hot tub. I plan to secure one with either a pool or a hot tub.
[ a pool would suit genji better - his synthetic skin is waterproof, but heat can be hit or miss. he watches hanzo begin to wash the dishes, standing up after a moment and stretching. ]
If you are giving me free reign to visit you in your luxurious apartment, though, I will wait to decorate for you until you've settled.
I am formulating a business plan to keep the chroma income high enough to afford such a place. You are more than welcome to stay whether or not you plan to contribute.
Though if you do, I imagine we could afford two new apartments with how much you might make. [Hanzo, after setting himself down and drying his hands from the dishes.]
You may find yourself aghast, but I rather like the place I have been given currently. I've already decorated it a bit.
[ moving quickly on from that, the fact that he'd obviously keep a space all his own: ] Dear brother, are you making spreadsheets and business plans for sleeping around?
[Wow, rude. How dare you laugh at your brother this way?]
I have to do something to keep myself busy or it will just be training and...[He nods in the direction of the trash bag full of collected beer and wine bottles.]
I need goals and objectives. Otherwise I am lost. [A pause, he smiles a little, at last.] And spreadsheets.
[ his tone is a little softer. he knows that hanzo is very much an always be working kind of person. even if that work has ultimately been less than legal, he needs something to do. and he will train until he is sick otherwise. ]
Well, I will seek something for us to do that is not just your spreadsheets and my favored activities.

[P-p-p-p-oker face, p-p-poker face.]
no subject
I have never seen you as a challenge either, Hanzo. It would be silly to compete in such things.
[ takashi... notwithstanding. but back to the teasing: ]
So, you do not he is quite handsome for an Omnic?
no subject
Yes. It would. Clearly I could not compete with you in this one very specific thing.
[He’s not stupid. Genji is charming.]
He is, i suppose...
no subject
[ genji is still grinning. ]
Well, he thinks you are quite handsome too.
[ genji doesn't actually know this, but he's fairly sure. ]
no subject
[He wants to wipe that grin off Genji’s face but instead sighs.]
Stop this at once. [Or he will blush.]
no subject
[ but still, hanzo requests he stop, and genji does back off, finishing off his soup and popping open the soda bottle. ]
Although, your charm seems to be working regardless of how rusty you feel it is, so I guess I am the one who is the fool.

That will take quite a bit of chroma. Which, if you have been working towards it... Hanzo, you sly dog.

You can decorate the both of them.

no subject
[Hanzo's laughing at him on the inside, but he's not letting Genji see that. If it's up to him he would put up a single bonsai and call it a day.]
I am making spreadsheets to ensure a steady flow of chroma as interior decorating is not something I can claim to be good at.
no subject
[ genji, however, is laughing out loud at hanzo at that. ]
I should have put nothing past you!
