["at least things are resolved with akechi now i just need to focus on lu--" haha bitch you thought
Which is to say, Akira is getting kabedon'd first thing in the morning because that is definitely what we need in this nearly empty murder house. Hi. Hello. Guess who's angry?]
Why [HISSING] did you tell Phoenix-san?

[oh my god AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE THE NIGHT BEFORE?? Akira jumps, before meeting Akechi's gaze and just. blinking]
Uh.
What?
Uh.
What?
[oh my goooooood]
[just]
[lifts a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose]
I only told him because I was asking him advice about Luna. I didn't ask him to go to you about it.

[damn it Phoenix!1]
[slumps a bit, and on the bright side his expression shifts from annoyance to something properly apologetic]
Yeah, I'm starting to figure that out.
[leave him alone dad seemed so trustworthy. . .!1]
Sorry. . .

[Is it really a bright side? Stares at him in disbelief.]
You're sorry? You think that's going to cut it?
[... But, at least, he pulls himself back so Akira isn't trapped against the wall anymore. Doesn't change the fact that he still looks angry at him, even as he crosses his arms.]
Do you understand how humiliating that was? [He scoffs.] No, of course you don't. You don't use your head at all.

[standing up a little straighter now, brows furrowed]
I told you, I didn't ask for him to go to you. He probably only did because he was worried.
[which. . .]
Which I do understand. The only reason I tried to talk to you about it after it happened was because I was worried, too.
[HE DIDN'T WANT TO HURT FEELINGS!! ANY MORE!! THAN HE PROBABLY ALREADY DID!!]

Unnecessarily. [Immediately, obviously irritated.] Both of you are complete fools.
[Haha, well. Please, worry less. Things would be fine if no one gave a shit!!]
Akira, just what did you think would happen if you didn't talk to me about it? Did you really believe I would give a damn if I found out by other means?
[Haha, well. Please, worry less. Things would be fine if no one gave a shit!!]

[that's not how friendship works!!]
I-- [he just]
[pauses as he tries to think this over]
. . . I don't know.
[Akechi kissed him back and he's been stuck on what that means for a while now??]
I-- [he just]

[Akechi kissed him back and he's been stuck on what that means for a while now??]
[...
He turns away from him, huffing out a humorless laugh.]
Right. Why do I expect you to know anything? How stupid of me.
[He's so tired of hearing "I don't know," you fool.]
Forget it. Finish your preparations for tonight. There will be no going back once we depart with Amada-kun and Phoenix-san.

[. . .]
[reaches out to snag Akechi by the back of his shirt before he can step away, his grip white-knuckled. there's a note of frustration in his voice]
Do you know why you keep getting "I don't know" from me? It's because you won't tell me how you felt, Akechi.
You kissed me back. Regardless of why I kissed you first, you still-- [. . .] Of course I thought you'd care. I didn't want to hurt you.

[...
So, uh.
Akechi is going to grab his arm in a vice grip, intent on using it as leverage before he turns around to deck him in the face.]
Don't you dare pin this on me. [He was starting to calm down a moment ago, but now? Hoo boy.] You have no fucking right to demand anything from me when you can't answer that question yourself!

[How do you approach your rival after word vomiting all over him? You don't. Unfortunately, Akechi doesn't have much of a choice when he runs into Akira in the kitchen. He stops at the doorway, freezing up for a second, before he... proceeds as he normally would.
Well.
They have a house to kill together.
So don't mind him as he walks over to the cabinets and takes out a mug, watching Akira make some coffee.]
If you didn't prepare enough for two servings, I'll take all of it.
[Akechi...]

[Akechi...]
[it's fine, Akira promised he wouldn't bring it up again, and QUITE FRANKLY. . . after that word vomit, he doesn't even want to. please don't remind him that he fucked up far more than he realized he had??? please leave it all in the past. . . please. . .]
[so when Akechi enters the kitchen, Akira doesn't even react other than to hold his hand out to take Akechi's mug]
Too late. Both servings are for me.
[j/k obviously he's gonna pour Akechi some]

[YEAH... YEAH............... It can stay in the past forever, thank you. There was a very big reason why Akechi didn't want to go through that emotional labor — but here they are. He rolls his eyes at him, leaning against the counter and letting him take his mug.]
Oh, so that's the thanks I get for wasting Loki on you?
Oh, so that's the thanks I get for wasting Loki on you?
[THE EMOTIONAL LABOR HELPED. . . sometimes the release is better than stewing forever!!]
That one is your fault. I'm not taking the blame for that one.
[pours coffee into Akechi's mug, sliding it across the counter to him]
Did you forget I still had the skull on me?
That one is your fault. I'm not taking the blame for that one.
[pours coffee into Akechi's mug, sliding it across the counter to him]
Did you forget I still had the skull on me?
[He takes the mug, letting it warm his hands. Is the release better, Akira? Is it really?]
Mm, I did. It was difficult to remember anything I had learned after the first, or perhaps the second week of our stay. [Which was, you know, fucking aggravating.] You're lucky Phoenix-san stepped in when he did. I would have shot you and wasted your skull, as well.

[YES THE RELEASE IS BETTER??? IT IS MUCH BETTER!!]
[ALSO JUST]
[HUFFS. . . slightly amused, slightly exasperated]
[and as Akechi sips at his coffee, Akira tugs the skull out of his jacket]
[and slides it across the table to him]
Take it this time, asshole.

[oh]
[my god]
[is Akechi really saying that NOW after he wasted his Tetrakarn on Akira earlier?? but Akira doesn't point that out, instead letting out a small huff as he shrugs and leans back in his seat, lifting his mug to his lips]
That's fine.
I am, after all, responsible for my own actions.

[... He huffs at that, slightly amused.]
Yes, you are.
[But #akiracrimes have been laid to rest, so he will leave it at that. Instead, he takes a sip from his coffee before reaching for the skull and pocketing it. His skull now.]
... We have no idea what to expect tomorrow. Are you prepared?
Yes, you are.

[well]
[at the sudden shift in subject matter, Akira's amused smile fades. his brow furrows, gaze flickering down to his coffee]
. . .
You know. . . Plum once told me that she and her sisters couldn't die.
Or, at the very least, they were very difficult to kill.
[thaaaaat isn't an answer]

[Well, it's not like there's a legitimate way to answer when they don't even know what the hell awaits them tomorrow.]
... She said many things that were later proven to be wrong, Akira. For example, just last week she claimed the house had no interest in destroying them because it saw them as lowly pets. [Which was, haha. A fun thing to hear.] Clearly, the situation has changed.
[For the worst, unfortunately. He stares down at his coffee as well, before adding:]
The house currently holds a piece of our souls. Have you thought about the implications?

[oh my god]
[his expression twists]
Pets.
[he repeats, a sharp note in the word, gaze narrowing as he says it]
. . . and yes, I have. I was hoping we'd find a way to retrieve them during our journey through that room, but. . .
