[this is probably before his performance to be honest - and whenever they get a second away from sasuke, senri is just going to pull taka into the closest unoccupied room and
give him a kiss]
I'm sorry.
[and more kisses in between his apologies]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry - I know it's a lot of trouble. We have to find out what happened to him. [another kiss!] I'll talk to Cinnabon today, or maybe we can get Love to uncurse him.
... sorry we didn't get to go on a speed date just the two of us yesterday too. And that you felt you had to leave during the first dance and -
[ it's funny, because he can't sincerely say he isn't annoyed.
it's mostly just been a culmination. the early morning talk with beauty, the speed dates, seeing fortune again, the ball, sasuke-- it was just odd, having the same vulnerability hit again and again in just one day.
but he just listens to senri say all of this, and he accepts every kiss and gives them back, and when senri finishes, takaomi just sighs. ]
[he pouts because of course he does - but he'll quiet down for a second if only to just wrap his arms around taka and brush his lips against his cheek softly.
senri isn't entirely aware of everything - but he'd heard enough that fortune was able to come back. it makes senri's heart twist a little uncomfortably, but not in any way that he thinks would be fair to voice out loud, not when he knows very well how important it is for taka to open his heart to more people
so he doesn't, and just tries to not look stressed in front of his boyfriend who probably had a day that was twice as emotionally difficult]
[ it's fine, he appreciates the quiet, especially since today is going to be busy between preparations for curfew and senri's performance. and they'll have to go back to sasuke eventually.
after a while, taka kisses senri, slow and gentle, and when he pulls back he tries his best for a smile even though it's lacking. ]
Did I mention you looked good yesterday?
[ he probably did, but he wants to ease back into the previous conversation ]
[ it's so weird to think that they'll have so much time after this to do whatever they want. to go on so many dates and have fights and make up and have so many other first experiences together that they can't have while here.
taka thinks about his lucky he is, in the midst of so much death and lies, that he has senri here. even if it sometimes feels like the universe is conspiring against them. ]
[senri's brow furrows quietly at that before he shakes his head and keeps his arms around taka, resting some more of his weight against him to lean into him comfortably. ]
.... even if you're not, I wanted to say sorry.
Because even if it was fun while we were together, I'm sure I could've done some things to make it easier.
I don't like making trouble for you.
[even though for some reason trouble always seems to knock on his door]
[senri laughs a little bit at that - under the attention and from the words]
.... I get into a lot of trouble.
[for some reason. it's a little odd, and even odder still how every single time he's been cursed, he's been able to figure out exactly who it was that cursed him. but he'll just sigh quietly before meeting taka's gaze]
... I do feel like I can breathe a little easier, as long as you're next to me.
I feel like it's selfish to ask that of you - but I can't say that I don't like it. I just... hope the fun outweighs the curse.
No... I have a favor I need to do for her, but it's the kind that takes time and I'm not sure if I'll finish it before tomorrow. Maybe Saturday, but...
[ he can't say for sure
still, senri has a point there. ]
I wonder if he got hit by Hopelessly Devoted instead?
You might as well ask. Since if it wasn't her, that means someone else either Hopelessly Devoted him or there's two other arrows out there on top of what Cinque used and the one that got Sasuke.
[ which is now a lot more concerning now that it is affecting him personally. ]
Okay, I'll take care of it. I'll see if I can do that before everything today, so we can at least have a better answer. We have to at least confirm that one of the Ambitions went to Love... Cunning, Love, and Sincerity are where they all went off to.
Even if all we can confirm is that it wasn't Cinque, that still tells us something, so don't get too annoyed if you can't find out more, okay, dumb rabbit?
[ . . . . senri leans into the touch and. huffs quietly. because taka's right that he absolutely will be frustrated if he can't figure out everyone's alignments by trial, and it's unfortunately getting later and later.]
.... if this is all I can do, then I should be able to do it well.... that's all I think.
[sometimes he gets perfectionist about things, unfortunately.]
[senri just shakes his head and leans up to kiss taka's forehead]
'.... I'm trying my best, but every weekend it feels like it's not enough. But it's the best that I can do, with what I have, and the things that I do accomplish... well, they probably help someone, even if I can't see it right away.'
week 6, thursday
give him a kiss]
I'm sorry.
[and more kisses in between his apologies]
I'm sorry, I'm sorry - I know it's a lot of trouble. We have to find out what happened to him. [another kiss!] I'll talk to Cinnabon today, or maybe we can get Love to uncurse him.

[HE HAS SO MANY APOLOGIES]
Sorry.... Please don't be mad.

[dumb needy rabbit. but he'll match taka's smile even as he stays close as he can, already gently pleased from the compliment.]
You did too. Let's see if Hari can bring us somewhere fancy so we can have a nice upper class date again.
[if nothing else, it's nice to think about how they'll get to go back home together in just a little bit over a week]

Anything that might trouble you will trouble me, because I want to be there for all of it.

The fun times, and the literally cursed ones.

[ he pulls senri even closer, and leans in for another kiss
and pauses ]
Even if this particular one is a bit fucking much.
no subject
We really have to get it undone. It's a little last minute, but I wouldn't suppose Rise-chan owes you for something?
.... It's kind of weird, to be honest. I think I hate it more because I know that even if Sasuke liked me for real, he wouldn't be anything like this.
It's like someone else's messed up idea of love coming out of his mouth.
no subject
[ he can't say for sure
still, senri has a point there. ]
I wonder if he got hit by Hopelessly Devoted instead?
no subject
I mean... maybe. I don't know if Cinnabon would choose Sasuke at her target - I can ask to make sure?
But... well, that means it was either Nonon-san or the last person that I don't know. I don't even know if that's Nonon-san's power this week.

but then he shakes his head. ]
You do a lot more than just that.

... same here, Senri.
