You know... there are people back home who would. Yuma and Touji, definitely, and others in the special class.

[ chizuru would not give a fuck but taka is pretending he does not exist for this moment. ]

... people love you.

[usogi]

[ . . . the thing is that senri is slowly getting that. he's slowly understanding that - because yuma and touji do defend him to taka sometimes, and they'll go out of their way to make it clear when he's not being awful. and taka goes along with the things that he does too.

if he just opened his eyes a little, and maybe his heart - and stopped chasing after just one thing....

he sighs and continues to rest against taka]

.... right now, you're all I need.

[in this moment, as long as he has taka, he's alright]

[bakaomi]

[ he kisses senri on the cheek (specifically the side with his good eye).

things aren't fine, but eventually they will be even if it takes time and a couple of false starts. but he has senri, who's alive and talking and everything that matters in the world. ]

Good. I'm not sharing you.

[ he has decided that if anyone tries to visit he is. going to ignore them. ]

[usogi]

[taka is such a bitch but senri doesn't even mind. he melts a little at taka's words and settles against him. things still aren't completely alright... he's still in pain and he still has to think about finding sasuke and making things better with everyone else but -

for right now he can rely on taka to still take care of him, and hold onto him even when he makes such horrifying mistakes. there's still someone here who will look after him.]

I'd get mad if you let me go without a fight....

[bakaomi]

Hm... at first I thought I'd be nice and let someone borrow you if they weren't somehow who annoyed me.

[ that's a very small list.

but he nuzzles his face against senri's. ]

But now I've decided they can wait til later.

[ the only people who would allow in is ray and sasuke still, and ray would probably prefer to let senri rest and they all know that they're going to have to hunt sasuke down. ]

[usogi]

[that's entirely correct and senri is okay with it. he relaxes at that and leans in just to give taka another kiss because he's dumb and gay and tired so he deserves whatever affection he can get his hands on, thanks!]

... okay.

Then until tomorrow, it can just be the two of us.

[because they're not going to be together on thursday night so]

[bakaomi]

Mmhm.

[ it's fine, taka will kiss him as many times as he wants because even though he complains about senri being too spoiled. in the end, he's the one who does most of the spoiling. ]

So hopefully you won't get sick of me by then.

[usogi]

[taka really does do most of the spoiling and it's bad.

senri will take it though, and he'll melt into the affection. at least for now, it's easier to put away his guilt as long as this person who cares for him so much is right in front of him.]

I've lasted this long... you know?

[bakaomi]

... yeah. You did.

[ he lasted a lot longer than taka thought someone would be able to put up with him. ]

[usogi]

[and senri will just sigh at that, giving taka another kiss at that.]

... Saturday's going to be busy, I think. Did Ray tell you what he's going to try to do with Luna...?

[please talk plot because you can't make out this week]

[bakaomi]

Mmhm. Use Lie Detection during trial on her.

[ if either of them die before they can make out again that'll be the true tragedy of the game ]

[usogi]

Uh-huh.

Sasuke's going to be the one giving Ray the signal if she is or isn't, so if you could react too in order to help cover it up....

[group effort

also yeah too bad taka's dying tomorrow so they can't make out anymore]

[bakaomi]

[ yeah. i'm gonna kill you if senri is dead after this hell week but yeah. ]

Mm. Got it. Since you guys are staying with Beauty, we won't be able to meet up with you before curfew ends. So we're probably just going to come back here.

[ also he has no idea how they would be able to explain to sasuke why he and ishi are suddenly there so. probably for the best. ]

[usogi]

[ . . . and senri will just nod a little bit at that, even if he doesn't look happy about it at all.]

I'm going to find you as soon as I wake up.

Do you want to meet here?

[bakaomi]

Here is fine.

[ he gives senri a kiss on the cheek. ]

It'll be fine.

[usogi]

[pouts

a lot]

.... stay with Ishirin-san the entire time and do everything that he tells you to do. No one can even find Beauty's room except for me and Ray so we'll be safe but....

I'm gonna worry no matter what - so make sure that it's unfounded so you can call me an idiot on Friday.

[bakaomi]

I'll never miss a chance to call you an idiot.

[ but he can understand senri's fear. this is the first time he's not leaving from the same spot as senri; all the other nights he was able to confirm right away that he was safe, but this time he has to wait until the announcement like everyone else. it's terrifying. ]

[usogi]

[ . . . . and senri will just nod at that and clings a little tighter - and try to mute how he winces when he aggravates his arm injury a little bit.]

Make sure you don't.

[because he's already fearful and injured and sad he doesn't need any more reason for that, and he's pretty sure that losing taka would manage to ruin him beyond repair]

[bakaomi]

[ there's a pause, and he moves back enough so he can take hold of the hand of senri's uninjured arm, so he can bring it to his mouth and press a kiss to his knuckles. ]

Senri.

[usogi]

[oh that's gay. senri feels a weird little gay flutter because of course he does?]

Taka...?

[bakaomi]

I like you. A lot.

[ which senri knows but

he feels like he should say it anyway, because the feeling can be suffocating at times with how much of it there is. ]

[usogi]

[holy fuck

there's a pause as the red is absolutely going to slowly creep all the way up his neck and to his face - he's not sure if having this much blood rush to his cheeks is good for his injury but. here we are.]

I.

Oh.

[ . . . he's just going to press his face into the crook of taka's neck now. close as they are taka might be able to feel the way that senri's heart is beating heavily in his chest. help.]

[bakaomi]

[ look, senri was obviously upset about curfew so taka decided that the best way to try to cheer him up was to be really, really gay

he still means it though. and... in the chance that things don't go well...

taka decides not to think about that. ]

Mm.

[usogi]

[honestly being really, really gay is a solid distraction for senri and he leans up to press their lips together in a kiss that betrays a little bit of his desperation, he's sure.

he claims a second one for good measure and -

pauses and curses sasuke deep in his soul because he wants to show affection to his boyfriend but he can't god dammit.

so instead he just sighs and presses their foreheads together as he holds onto taka]

.... I really like you too, Taka.

[bakaomi]

[ sasuke may have saved senri's life but he also cockblocked them so like, it cancels each other out.

and taka knew this, senri's feelings, but there really is something about hearing it said out loud that makes it seem like you're learning it for the first time. he lets out a breath and-- okay, sorry sasuke, he's going to steal another kiss

but at least he pulls back on his own this time. ]
