[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?

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. ]

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.]

[ 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. ]

[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]

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

[ for

well, reasons ]

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

[senri not now]

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

[ shut up senri ]

You'll get another guess tomorrow - I wonder if you'll get it right?

[and he shakes his head]

If we're on different teams, one of us will need to switch eventually.

... I guess.

[ taka actually? likes his god though? ]

[ . . . . ]

And you would switch before you lost, right?

Stupid, i wouldn't sabotage myself.

[ he huffs ]

... I just would prefer not to jump ship unless I have to.

[the fact of the matter is that taka is nicer than senri when you get down to the core of things, because senri is still a shitty liar

that said]

.... yeah, I get that too. I'm just making sure.

A lot of the gods are nice - it sucks to have to pay attention to what everyone else is going to do.

That's probably the second most annoying thing about all of this.

[ the first is the murder ]

Yeah, you're really bad with people.

[ . . . . oh right.]

In case I forget to mention - Ray-kun told me his god, Uchiha's leaving Cunning for another god, Chuuya-san's leaving Discord for Sincerity.

[yayyyy]

Fuck you.

[ moving on, that was a reflex. ]

People sure do tell you things.

.... Chuuya-san is really easy to fool.

[he doesn't like admitting this but like]

Like, scary easy. Don't tell him anything. But if you want to spread something false, you might be able to do it through him.

[ he's not sure what to do with this information

and it really comes down to why taka is just bad at this type of competition. the trying to solve a murder isn't what's hard for me; he's a detective. it's his job. but being sneaky? manipulating others to get info? lying?

in the end, he doesn't really think he's going to get too far in the contest if that's how you get ahead in this. ]

... what did you tell him?

Nothing directly. He probably just thinks I'm with the wrong god.

[... it's a bit of a worrying thing in this game. because it's easy for senri to put on a smile and it's easy for him to manipulate his first impressions with people.]

I've been trying to decide what to tell him... because I think it'll help if there's more stuff that we all know, like the worlds that gods want and what their personalities are, but I'd rather not have him know anything about me.

[which is actually

a day in the life for senri]

Do you listen to the things you say?

[ taka isn't like

surprised because he knows that senri is a fake bitch, but normally he does not admit it so easily. kind of like how normally the two of them would not be doing facials together. it really shows what the threat of death will do. ]

[ . . . and senri pauses, and sighs]

.... do you ever think about if what we're playing for is worth all of this?

Because I've been thinking about that lately.

Even if everyone is still sent home at the end, you'd still have to deal with the whole trauma of getting murdered.

[ like... it'll be cool to not stay dead, but also

that really is still pretty traumatic?? ]

Yeah. It almost makes me miss Shinonome.

[ . . . ]

I'd be your partner for another entire year if it meant that Shiks didn't have to go through that.

But it makes a lot of stuff that I did back home seem dumb. I liked when my biggest problem was how much I hated your burger curtains.

... you say that but I'm sure you'll be trying to switch dorms if we have to go back there.

[ senri's stubborn and apparently does not learn lessons. what happened in sweet trick trap give us the forbidden bitch ]

You know we're both not happy being each other's partners back home.

[here they have no other choice just by the nature of being from the same place

but back there?

there are actually saner options]
