The last thing I am is terrified. I have already explained my thoughts on those we've been saddled with.

[survivaltricks]

Mmm. I remember.

[but]

But do you really feel that way about everyone here? Most people, sure-- but everyone?

You know you can be honest with me, right?

[but he also knows Akechi won't, so. lol]

[miscakes]

Everyone.

[Firmly. What is........ honesty? What is acknowledging your own feelings? Sounds fake.]

I am being perfectly honest with you. Whether you believe me or not is none of my concern.

[survivaltricks]

[hah]

[an amused huff, and Akira offers a tiny shrug]

True. I guess it really isn't.

[it's clear he doesn't believe Akechi at all]

[miscakes]

[Rude.

He gives him a dirty look, but doesn't say anything in response. Instead, he scoffs and returns to his coffee, drinking whatever is still left inside the thermos.]

[survivaltricks]

[just spreads his hands and gives Akechi an amused look. he isn't!! saying anything!!]

[miscakes]

[Good. Then stay there in silence until it ends up being too much for Akira's nyan self.]

[survivaltricks]

[eventually it does become too much for his nyan self, and his tail flicks again]

When we get home. . . is there anything you want to do before you-- ah.

Before you turn yourself in?

[miscakes]

[Ah. That is apparently something he hasn't thought about at all, judging by the way Akechi stops. It takes him a moment before he responds, putting the thermos down to stare at it as he does.

...]

The calling card. I want to see what you wrote.

[That is not quite a thing to do, but it's the first thing that comes to mind?]

[survivaltricks]

[aha. . . it's a fair request, though. and Akira's mouth twitches]

We didn't write anything.

We recorded a video and hijacked national television so it'd play all over Japan.

[miscakes]

[Oh.

He's momentarily stunned, eyes widening a fraction in surprise... and then he begins to laugh.]

Damn, I'm a little jealous. That piece of shit's reaction... It must have been a sight to see.

[Never mind that, uh, things would have gone pretty badly for him if Akechi was still alive when Shido got the calling card. Eh.]

[survivaltricks]

Right? It's just too bad we weren't there to see it, either.

But the confession afterwards?

[a huffed laugh, smile sharp]

It was pretty damn pathetic.

[miscakes]

You will have to show me a recording, then. Someone must have uploaded it by now.

[The thought almost makes up for the hostage DVD snapping. Almost!]
