usogi | [ senri & ray are not okay ]

I wasn't mad to begin with but you're really pissing me off right now!

You make that really hard to believe when you've never gotten this angry with me before!!

[ray's called him an idiot when he's gotten affectionate before but this is?? something new???]

What? Do you want to hit me? Call me a liar? Just do it already so you don't have to hold onto this anger anymore!

[he doesn't get it. of course he doesn't.]

Shut up. I'm not going to do any of those things.

[he wants to walk away. unfortunately, he knows that pragmatically, he can't.]

You should! Because I get it - I messed up, and I lied, and you caught me in it in the middle of a trial when you trusted me!

And maybe my apology doesn't cut it, but if you don't talk to me then we can't fix this!

[his brow furrows]

Ray-kun, I need you to talk to me.

There's nothing that needs fixing.

You're treating me differently and I don't know why you think I can't tell the difference.

If you'd even just admit that you're mad at me, that'd be a place to start.

I told you, I'm not mad at you.

[or wasn't, until this moment.

and whether or not senri believes it or not, it is, in its own way, the truth.]

[senri does struggle to believe it but - ]

Fine, then it's something else.

Do you need me to work twice as hard to earn your trust again? Because I can do that, if that's what it takes.

You don't need to do that.

Then tell me what I need to do or I'll do something stupid to try to make up for it in my own way.

[is

is that a threat or]

You don't need to do anything, and try it and I'll tell Takaomi.

That's not a threat, I don't listen to what he tells me to do anyway.

[can senri please listen to someone]

Whatever. My point still stands—there's nothing for you to do other than continue as you've always done.

I don't want to if you're going to keep quietly resenting me.

I don't resent you.

[which is also the truth.]

Then what is it?

[he looks so frustrated - it's hard, when their worlds are so different, and they're so different, and senri's normally good at social situations but this is one where he's sincerely at a loss]

Are you upset with me for getting myself in danger? For not coming up with a better lie? For not being smarter and coming up with a cover?

There's something that you're not telling me, and it's driving me crazy....!

No. Just stop thinking about this.

[he should never have lost his temper like that. it would've been so much better if they'd just continued with the pretense.]

No! It's going to bother me until I figure it out...!

[it will literally occupy 60% of his brainspace until he learns what's wrong]

Is it because I got cursed?! I already told you who did it...!

[PLEASE JUST TELL HIM SO HE STOPS GUESSING]

[ray looks as if he's a second away from facepalming.]

Just stop, you idiot.

No! I can't leave it like this!

Do I need to get Bakaomi to translate for us? Did you tell Madopyon why you're unhappy with me? Should I ask Love...?!

[HE'S TRYING TO PHONE A FRIEND]

No, no, and no—and I'm not unhappy with you! How many times do I have to say that!?

Then why does it feel so weird...?!

Bakaomi said you got mad at him over how much he talks badly about me - but you won't even tell me what's up....

[he makes an annoyed noise]

If you want me to appeal to the logical side of you - it's hard to trust someone in a game where people are killing each other, who can't tell me what I did to make things bad....

Then don't trust me. That would be the smarter move to make, at any rate.

That's not -

Ray-kun...!! I want to trust you! I do trust you - but I....

[he looks so bummed out honestly]

Seriously...?

[this is like kicking a puppy but thankfully ray is an asshole.]

I have nothing left to say about the matter.
