Chance had every intention of fulfilling his division leader's request - but before that, he had to make a pit stop, a few questions still unanswered as he slipped upstairs to the second floor, hands tucked into the pockets of his sweatpants.
He could have just walked in, but Chance knocked on the door anyway and stood there waiting, rocking back on his heels.

Otto opened the door to find Chance waiting on the other side. It took him a solid couple of seconds to register the man standing there, only because Chance knew better than this. He was always welcome to just walk in. Blinking, he finally spoke. "Um.. hey?" He was happy to see the man, but why had he knocked? "You okay?"

He smiled pleasantly down at Otto.
"Hi, hot stuff," said Chance, and bent forward, pecking a kiss to his boyfriend's lips, before leaning back again, resting against the doorframe. "Got a few minutes? I got an assignment from Allen, and, well...it's kind of confusing me a bit."

His kiss was returned, and Otto stepped aside to let Chance in, although his ace soured at the mention of Allen. "God, I've had it up to here with that man." He grumbled. "What part's confusing? All of it?"

Chance slipped in easily, nudging the door shut with his foot, and then promptly draped a lazy arm around Otto's shoulders. He wasn't really all that clingy normally, and still wasn't, but his mood was rather lighthearted and teasing as it was.
"Pretty much," he said brightly, and kissed the side of Otto's head before letting him go. "What exactly is a nakama?"

While Otto did find it a little different for Chance to be affectionate like this, he couldn't say he didn't mind. As long as it was once in a while. If he had to deal with it every day, it would be less of a treat and more like a suffocating annoyance. Thankfully, it was a once in a while sort of thing. And this time around Otto kind of enjoyed it. His eyes rolled as he sighed aloud, "Uh.. I think it means like... comrade, or somethin'. I'm only figurin' it out through context. So I dunno." Otto turned away and grabbed himself a drink from the fidge; a cola, as usual. He motioned silently to Chance to ask if he wanted one too.

Chance not being clingy was why their relationship worked as well as it did in the first place, and he was perfectly content to keep things as they were. He padded towards the couch and flopped down onto it, crossing one leg over the other and nodding in answer to Otto's unspoken question.
"So like....a friend?" said Chance thoughtfully, tilting his head against the back of the couch. "Or like...a peer? Just an ally? Well, that's pretty broad."

Otto sat with Chance, pressing the cold side of the can into the man's face. "It's Allen. He never makes proper sense." He grunted, opening his drink and taking a gulp. "What's all this about, anyway?"

"Cold cold - "
He reached up and plucked the can away from his face, popping the tab and grinning up at Otto. "Thank you. And I'm supposed to be making five nakama, according to Allan, but I have no idea what on earth that means."

Otto's eyes rolled. "Make friends then. Can't be hard for you." Chance was too easy going not to be able to make friends. "Or just battle friends. Maybe that's what it means. I dunno. I'll bet he forgets the whole thing and you won't gotta worry anymore."

He took a long sip of soda and snorted, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Okay, wise guy," said Chance dryly. "Making acquaintances and making friends is not the same thing. It took me a while just to get used to having the latter in the first place."
An eyebrow rose. "You beat the friend into them?" he asked teasingly.

Otto shrugged absently. "He never specified how, did he? So it's fair game." If Chance screwed up the interpretation, it was all Allen's fault for not better explaining. "So there ya go. Beat up all the nakama."

It was such an Otto reply that it made Chance smile against his can of soda as he lifted it to take another swallow.
"All right, five nakama - and before you remind me that he might not even remember, I definitely will, plus, you know." He gave a little shrug. "I haven't really done much in terms of Sun Division in general, so this could be a good chance - " A little cough. " - for me."
Chance tilted his head against the back of the couch, relaxing.
"Got any suggestions for future nakama?"

"Iunno. Any nakama you wanna be friends with? Or nakama you already kinda dislike enough to punch in the face?" He paused... "Or... like-like enough to punch in the face?"
"This is your mission dude. Not mine."

Chance rolled his eyes, idly nudging his leg against Otto's.
"I'd like to punch you in the face," he deadpanned, but his eyes were twinkling with amusement. "I'm asking you because you've been here longer than I have, dork. I figured you'd know more people."
He hummed thoughtfully. "Unless you wanna tell me the people I should avoid instead."
