[akira's attempt at avoiding hurt feelings on both sides: FAILURE]
[. . .]
[he huffs out a wry, humorless laugh and pulls both hands away from his face, gaze affixed on the wall in front of him. silence stretches on for a period, and then. . .]
Yeah.
That's all there is to it.
[and when he thinks about it. . . he had spent so much energy trying to convince Luna that his feelings were real and not enough acknowledging that he had fucked up]
[. . .]
[the next time he sees her, the first thing he has to do is apologize]
[Under any other circumstances, watching him flounder around like this would be extremely satisfying. But right now... it's more of an annoyance than anything. He lifts his head up to watch him, expression unreadable.]
Don't allow this to become a distraction tomorrow. I won't accept any mistakes at such a crucial time. [So, back to business.] Do you understand?
[. . . in a way, it's almost comforting to hear Akechi say that. as mall bit of normality, of something expected, amidst the mess. Akira huffs out a laugh, and for the first time, a smile cracks on his features, as rueful as it is]

I understand.

[With that, he steps away from the pillar, glass crunching under his feet as he turns to face the exit.]
It's late. I'm heading back to my room. I suggest you do the same, unless you want to slow us down.
no subject
And let you one up me?
Not a chance, Akechi.

[Kicking the house's ass shouldn't be a competition, and yet. If Akira has nothing else to say, though, Akechi will exit stage left.]
no subject
[and that's all Akira has to say right now, so he lets Akechi exit stage left]
[GLAD TO KNOW THAT EVERYTHING IS NOW HUNKY-DORY BETWEEN THEM (hahaha)]
