[Gold. His team really did it, they medaled, and Tooru could not be happier that they made it, it all felt like a dream. Even if he's now an Argentinian citizen, he's still also proud he got to do that in the country he was born in. The thrill of playing on an Olympic level and achieving his goals has him at his happiest he's ever been and the stupid smile on his face says it all as he looks at his phone.
His friends and family are proud of him, evidenced by his phone blowing up with congratulatory messages, even if some are teasing that he should have been with Japan to get them that far.
It's on a walk for fresh air that Tooru spots a familiar face, one he'd been insanely jealous of and felt inferior to back in high school. Though now he's got those feelings of inferiority under control, and the win against team Japan that had Kageyama and Ushijima had him in high spirits, so he swallows his petty pride to stride over with a smile.]
Tobio-chan! How's it going? How's the team taking the losses?
[Surprisingly, Tooru's not being antagonistic with his tone, or even smug. Two friends were on that team, and he did feel a little bad, but only a little.]

right back at you, work's been busy for me
[ Not that Tobio has the strongest sense of patriotism, nor a strong feeling of home in general. He's most at home on a court, no matter where in the world it may be located, and he attributes some of his success to that. Nothing to worry about when it comes to friends or family or romance because he doesn't have much of any of them; it helps that all of the people he calls friends are fellow volleyball players, too. ]
It was nice to see familiar faces, too.
[ Perhaps not Oikawa's, however, since said face continues to be so cocky. It's nothing like in high school when he always had a childish air to his personality when they were off the court. As annoying as he could be, at least Oikawa has always been able to back up his claims, and Tobio has no doubts that his team will be back in the finals four years from now. Then again, teams change, and Tobio may be playing for an even stronger team than the one Japan had this time.
The gesture is lost on him, but the question is a simple one. Still, it stuns him a bit. He'd talked to Hinata about running into Oikawa in Brazil, sharing a game and a meal, but Tobio didn't think that he'd ever have that kind of offer extended to him. Didn't he used to be Arch Nemesis #1 in his mind? ]
No, actually, I was going to go find something.
