[ he takes off one of the pins (the one that isn't holding up the emo bangs part specifically) and tosses it at senri's face ]

[usogi]

[GAH]

You're going to get honey in your hair and you're going to deserve it!

[bakaomi]

I'll just wash it!

[ taka practices proper hygiene! ]

[usogi]

I hope it's really difficult, just to make it worse on you.

[this is not getting along]

[bakaomi]

I hope yours fall out.

[ this is definitely not getting along ]

[usogi]

You're really the worst - I still can't believe I'm stuck here with you!

[he's TIRED]

[bakaomi]

You don't have to be. You have friends.

[ like the 12 year old ]

[usogi]

Of course I do, I always have friends.

["But you're my partner."

he thinks about saying it

he thinks about saying it for a long time





he does not say it]

[bakaomi]

So you're not that stuck with me.

[ it's different from back home, where they're forced to live together and their success for obtaining top seat depends on one another ]

[usogi]

[ . . . . . .

senri just sighs and looks away]

I can have friends, but it's hard to find people to trust, so stuff it.

[bakaomi]

[ for now, anyway ]

... you're so dumb.

[usogi]

No, I'm not.

... but for what now....

[bakaomi]

It's a long list.

[ and he'd happily go over it at any other time, but for now ]

You trust me?

[ they never really flat out said it, just implied it. ]

[usogi]

[oh.

. . . yeah, he guesses that there's no real way around that now. he pauses and i hope you remember that they're having this conversation with face masks on]

.... yeah.

You're impossible to get along with, and I don't like you most days.

But I trust you.

[bakaomi]

[ the face masks may ruin the seriousness of the conversation yea ]

Mm.

[ taka do you want to give a real response to that or ]

[usogi]

[ . . . .

senri pauses like he might be waiting for something - and then thinks better of it.

he'll check his phone to see how much longer they have for the masks.

he can't blame a detective for not trusting a liar.]

[bakaomi]

[ and he is very suddenly standing up to

walk over to senri and hug him

i'm sorry that's still a thing when will this week end and free him ]

[usogi]

[oh my fucking god

senri will pause for a second because this sucks and he hates it

mostly because he's actually had a very bad few days and despite what he said in trial. he sort of wants to take every hug that he can get.

he doesn't hug back so much as he puts a hand on taka's arm so he can't pull back right away]

.... did your god curse you to hug someone every time you're emotionally stunted and can't say something to them?

[bakaomi]

Stop talking.

[ the worst thing is that taka is aware this is out of character for him, and that normally he probably would not do this

but at the same time he just wants to and it doesn't feel wrong.

so, it's a hug that's both genuine and not. ]

[usogi]

Am I right?

[look, it's been a long day.

and senri should probably just let taka pull away and they'll never talk about this again - it'd be a pretty usual thing for him to do.

.... but he's also tired. and even though he had a good cry earlier, he's still unbearably sad. so he's quiet for a second before he reaches up to return the hug.

maybe the curse was contagious.]

[bakaomi]

[ it really wasn't. ]

I don't know who did it still.

[ it could have been one of the other participants' power for all he knows, although he doesn't know why they'd target him specifically. he hadn't pissed off that many people so early in the week. ]

[usogi]

[senri lets go of the hug and decides to just not talk about it]

Think you can ask your god? I was thinking about who might have the power to do something like that, but the powers available to players are normally limited when it comes to making someone do something - like once per week.

[and taka has given out

many more hugs than that]

[bakaomi]

I'll ask... although I'll be kind of pissed if it was actually them.

[ for

well, reasons ]

[usogi]

You could always switch to my god if it makes you that unhappy.

[senri not now]

[bakaomi]

One, I don't even know who your god is. Two, no.

[ shut up senri ]
