[usogi]

We'll take a ride all the way up! I wanna see what all the floors look like before we find a room. Bambi said she put a ton of her favorite spots in here.

[bakaomi]

Ugh.

[ they are going to be in this elevator for so long

so he leans against the wall ]

[usogi]

[what a good boyfriend

Senri is just going to lean there next to him as they start to head up

kissing his cheek]

... I want to talk to you about the last switch too.

[bakaomi]

[ he automatically leans against senri. ]

... what about it? We went over the plan with the others, right?

[usogi]

.... yeah.

I'll go wherever you go.

[and he'll rest his head on Taka's shoulder ]

I think we can do it - and I'm sad that I'm not convincing enough to get people to switch to Cheri but....

I'm just going to talk to all the gods so that no matter who wins, they can grant Ray-kun's wish, even if it's just because they're friends with me.

[bakaomi]

[ ...

he holds onto senri's arm, his expression thoughtful. ]

I want to stay with Merriment.

[ he remembers, weeks ago, when senri had asked him if he was going to switch to whoever was going to win instead of staying loyal. ]

But I'll switch if I have to.

[usogi]

[and Senri's heart twists a little at that.]

.... I know. I want to stay with Cheri too.

But - we won't have enough numbers to win otherwise.... right?

[bakaomi]

Yeah... I wasn't expecting Ambition's numbers to be so high.

[ they were all much more even last week, so he thought it might be like that again. ]

[usogi]

.... well two of them weren't supposed to be here this week.

[but he says that softly - like he can't quite bring himself to be angry that people are alive. he might've been more openly torn up about it last week but.]

... but -

I can't even blame them. I like Bambi. I actually think she could create a great world, after all this is over. If it was just me, I'd switch to her team at the end to make sure that I could get Ray-kun's wish granted.

... but it's not just me.

[bakaomi]

... the thing is, it's really hard to tell if people switched to her because of that or just because they want to use her powers.

[ so it might be easy to convince others, but... ]

We'll see. We have until the end of the week to decide, right?

[usogi]

Yeah. Sunday is the last day. I'm... going to talk to everyone that I can talk to, and see if they'll agree with my plan. I know a lot of people are staying loyal to their gods, and I can't even blame them but...

[it's hard.

to try to get everyone's wishes granted, it's hard]

So far it sounds like... a lot of the people on that team do believe in her.

Or they're people I can't read like Ludger and Alex.

[bakaomi]

... I guess we'll see where everyone is leaning towards.

[ but if everyone decides to go ambition, taka isn't even sure if he should bother then since he's never really even considered her for winning.

... ]

If it turns out well, we might not even have a trial this weekend, so that means we'll have more time to discuss the final decision.

[usogi]

[ . . . and senri just frowns]

... yeah.

Think the no revenge rule means they can't retaliate against me for outing them?

I mean... Sasuke's staying with All Nighter anyway, to protect us but...

[bakaomi]

I'm giving you the brooch back.

[ senri had said only one night, before, and taka will hold him to that. ]

It looks better on you, anyway.

[usogi]

[and senri just laughs a little bit]

... we'll talk about it all together. I can hold onto it until Thursday, but I don't think it makes sense for me to have it when Sasuke will be awake anyway.

[bakaomi]

[ he frowns

and leans up to press a kiss to senri's forehead before the elevator door slide open ]

[usogi]

[senri will take the kiss - and then glance over to find the restaurant. he's entirely distracted as he perks up]

I found lunch!

[he'll stand up properly to peer his head out the elevator doors, laughing a little]

It just reminds me of the cafeteria in Shinonome....

[bakaomi]

At least a hotel has an excuse to be this fancy.

[ @tamaki ]

Come on, next floor.

[usogi]

[he'll wander back then and press the button to close the doors

leaning in to kiss taka once he returns to his side]

I don't want to hear that from someone who isn't even a commoner.

[bakaomi]

I'm nowhere near this bad.

[ shut up senri!! ]

[usogi]

A stealth rich...!

[senri hums]

We're like the Prince and the Pauper - but you know, gay.

[bakaomi]

Do you listen to the things you say?

[ he is so tired of his boyfriend ]

It's not even my money, it's my parent's, so don't think I can take you to places like that every day.

[usogi]

[and senri is just laughing]

That's true. I guess I'm still the money maker in the relationship.

[please stop]

[bakaomi]

... hearing you say that is kind of annoying.

[ the doors slide open for the next floor, the ballroom. ]

[usogi]

Solve more cases, make more money than me, I dare you.

[STOP BEING ANNOYING

but he'll do the same wandering out to peer through the doors

and turning back to taka]

Can we come back here to dance together again?
