[ Okay, okay. With the door fully open, the music ... isn't any quieter, but it becomes bearable slowly. The ear he couldn't cover is ringing, but Yu will lower his hand from his other ear and step into this new room.
Mostly to himself: ]
This does seem like a place that would belong to a god of indulgence...
[ Like, damn.
Yu will wander around, just taking it all in. Though it's really more like "picking his way through this veritable sea of pillows" than actually wandering. There's so much to look at here, but the magical instruments inevitably draw his attention; he'll head that way simply to admire them. As he goes, he'll carefully overturn pillows here and there, trying to see if there's anything important here to find.
Of course there's also the path, but he'll get to that in due time. ]
[ Fortunately for Jude his ears aren't ringing but it does take him a bit to adjust to the sound. Though while Yu manages through the sea of pillows, Jude finds himself with a little more difficulty. Only just. His delay results in him having more time to look at all of the food on display and the instruments.
...and as tempting as it might be to grab some of the food, he follows Yu instead. ]
Is that who we're looking for?
[ Did they just break and enter into Indulgence's room??? ...if they did, why is Jude now just caring about it? ]
...or maybe I should be saying how we should make sure we aren't caught by them.
[Other than finding luxury after luxury, there doesn't really seem to be anything noteworthy to be found under any pillows, or anywhere else for that matter. The most interesting piece is probably the circular crown that rests on the vanity. There's also something red jutting out into the middle of the pillowless pathway.]
Looking for? ... to be honest, I kind of hope we don't run into them. But it was Indulgence's symbol that hid the mechanism to get in here. This place is probably theirs.
[ ... of these two things to investigate, that "something red" concerns him more, so Yu will head for it. What is this thing? ]
[Surprise: when Yu picks up the mysterious red object, he'll discover it's a bright red speedo! Finding a luxury cloth that's been tasked to cradle some godly junk? An absolutely blessed discovery.]
[ Very soft. He had to pick it up to pull it free from the pillows, and oh boy, it sure is what it is. He's holding it very carefully with the tips of just two fingers, the same way you might hold trash, or something very filthy.
[Maybe the speedo doesn't appreciate being treated like garbage when it's an object of absolute divinity, because as if its alive, like Aladdin's Magic Carpet, it springs up out of Yu's grasp and coils around his arm, sliding up his body like a snake.]
[ With a startled, hoarse cry, Yu will try to shake it off, fail, stumble over all the fucking pillows on the floor, and topple over, disappearing into a pile of them.
Please save him from this predatory speedo?????? ]
[ When people talk about doing heroic deed, they're probably not talking about rescuing people from seemingly sentient speedos and friends who have fallen into a sea of pillows.
But then again. All kinds. ]
Yu!
[ Jude yells while immediately rushing to his side (hopefully) and sticks his hands into the pillows to (hopefully) grab a hold of the speedo to pull it off of Yu (hopefully). this is a real tag i'm so sad. ]
[This feels like that scene with the giant baby in Spirited Away except it's a very persistent speedo that wants to find a home. It's a slippery little bugger, and fast, too, making its way across Yu's body and wiggling free of Jude's fingers as they try to close around it.
[ Yu, Jude, and a speedo, struggling amongst the pillows...
This is the worst. I regret everything.
anyway he's going to at least try and kick it off now. They sure are making a huge fucking mess of all the pillows on the floor. So much for making this place not look broken into. ]
[ not sure if "horror" is the genre you're looking for...
During the struggle to get the speedo off of Yu, Jude falls into the pile of pillows as well and keeps making attempts to grab the "divine garment"...only to also be kicked by Yu a few times due to the amount of pillows causing him to yelp in pain and pull away momentarily. ]
[In the commotion, a pillow goes flying into one of the enchanted instruments, causing it to stammer and lose tune, then fall into another, causing a domino effect of clanging, clattering instruments until they're all together in a sad musical pile on the floor.
Sad, sad trombone.
As that happens, the speedo loops itself over his ankles. RIP Yu, which will make it even harder to find any kind of balance or right himself.]
[ What kind of protagonist do you take him for? Jude will definitely not give into that and instead will start picking up and tossing pillows away from them. (Likely causing even more noise than necessary.) Parting the sea of pillows now that they've given up on making it seem as though they were never there. ]
No way!
[ A toss of a few pillows to one side. ]
It's just—
[ Another toss of some more pillows to the other side. ]
Some underwear! [ Firmly grabbing a hold of the speedo at Yu's ankle. ] Probably.
[Entirely too dramatic, but somehow perfectly in line with a jrpg, isn't it? The speedo struggles, unable to crawl farther up Yu's legs with the way Jude has a hold of it, so it shivers as it tries to resist!
Now that the music has stopped, they can hear the sound of running water coming from the other door past the area in the room that's clear of pillows.]
[ Jude will hold onto the speedo firmly as Yu escapes its grasp(??). For whatever the remaining length that the speedo tries to wriggle back up on Yu as he removes his legs(???), Jude will do a bit of his own tugging and hopefully pulling it off of Yu. ]
There!
[ Please free Yu from the speedo. It's free to live on Jude's hand. I offer him as tribute. ]
[Hand? Oh, no, when Jude manages to finally pull the speedo free, it snaps itself in the other direction, wrapping itself firmly around his head. This is his special hat now.]
[I, personally, question this every day. At least the speedo stops moving now that it's found a new home. It loves you, Jude. It will never leave you...at least not right now.
Now, the sound of running water should be much easier to hear, the chaos having died and left the room in an almost eerie silence--at least when you compare it to how loud it had been when the music was still playing.]

Of course now they're stuck at an impasse. Very carefully, Yu will try to remove his legs from the speedo with Jude's help.

I won't forget your sacrifice, Jude-san. I'll honor you.
[ Steeling himself, he'll get to his feet, pulling his friend up with him. He'll glance around the room, and briefly depart.
He returns with the crown, and settles it atop Jude's brand new speedohat. ]
Truly, this suits your nature.
[ What a picture he makes. ]
Come on. We should check out the rest, Jude-sama.
[ that's right, he gets an upgraded honorific now. ]
