[FINE. Be that way!!! He huffs and turns back to his notebook, terse.]

Too soon.

[survivaltricks]

Right, right.

[still amused with himself, but also a bit sheepish]

Sorry. [okay okay, now they should probably talk about business] Are you working on notes for tomorrow?

[miscakes]

[Talking business is good. Let them never talk about anything else ever again.]

Yes... We have learned many things in the past six week. It's easy for certain details to be lost in the process if we're nor careful. [Hence, no sleep tonight. Only notes.]

[survivaltricks]

[don't get your hopes up now that they're friends they will talk about feelings and other things all the time now. you're stuck, Akechi]

Doooo you even plan on sleeping tonight?

[miscakes]

[Hewwo? Can he unsubscribe from this friendship?]

Of course I do. [Probably.] This won't take up that that much of my time.

[survivaltricks]

[no]

Uuuh huh.

Should I get the coffee ready?

[miscakes]

I won't turn you down if you're offering.

[Give! Him! Coffee!]

[survivaltricks]

I'm offering, buuuut there's a catch.

[hm]

[miscakes]

[... Lifts his head up to raise an eyebrow at him.]

A catch?

[survivaltricks]

You have to take a break from work.

[OH NO WHAT AN AWFUL CATCH]

But just for as long as it takes you to finish the cup.

[miscakes]

[...

?????

WHAT A TERRIBLE CATCH.]

That's all?

[survivaltricks]

Yep. That's all.

[look he doesn't want you passing out tomorrow at the meeting okok]

Unless you want me to add more terms and conditions?

[miscakes]

Why would I want that? The current terms are fine by me.

[He won't pass out!! Let him be a busybody out of spite. It's fine.]

[survivaltricks]

You're the one who sounded surprised I was going easy on you.

[he is gonna climb to his feet now, though!]

Give me about fifteen minutes. I'll be right back.

[and thus Akira braved more stairs to bring Akechi some coffee]

[miscakes]

Don't keep me waiting.

[Godspeed, Akira. Don't trip and fall down the stairs.]

[survivaltricks]

[he will not, he has CONQUERED THE STAIRS OF THIS HOUSE. . . and he returns fifteen or so minutes later with a thermos of coffee, so!! instead of just handing it to Akechi like a normal person, he presses the bottom to the top of Akechi's head]

[miscakes]

[Wow!!

Akechi reaches up to yank the thermos out of Akira's grasp. His coffee now.]

If you're going to be this way, then I will drink this all by myself. [Sharing is cancelled.]

[survivaltricks]

[. . . he meant for Akechi to drink it all by himself, so I mean--]

Were you planning on sharing it with me?

[a bit!! surprised!!]

[miscakes]

Not anymore.

[... To be fair, he also thought Akira would make enough for himself, too. But, eh. None for Akira, anyway.]

[survivaltricks]

Aw.

[plops down onto the pillows next to Akechi, clearly amused]

Your heart has grown three sizes today, Grinchkechi.

[miscakes]

Don't you have somewhere else to be?

[Akira, he will pour this coffee on your lap.]

[survivaltricks]

See my answer to why I'm here in the first place.

[he has many places to be!!]

[and he chooses to be here]

[miscakes]

It was a suggestion, not a question.

[He will set his notebook and pen down to actually deal with the thermos, though.]

[survivaltricks]

[snorts in amusement but doesn't comment, watching as Akechi works the thermos open. after a moment, his expression turns. . . distant, almost pensive]

[miscakes]

[Hm...? He stays silent while he gets the thermos open, but once that's done:]

... That look on your face. Is something the matter?
