But if you're not willing, I'll have no other choice than to stay here forever.
[ It's too late when Hibiki realizes what he has just done. Honestly, his cheeks become red in a matter of seconds, it might be a new personal record. ]
[ It's difficult to look Akira in the eyes when he's wearing this. For so many reasons. That's why, instead, Hibiki is pressing his face into his shoulder. ]
About that other thing... [ Of course he's not stating which. Of course. ] I'm not saying no, it's just...
I just don't think that's a good idea right now. I mean...
[ If he only knew what he means. If only. How is he supposed to tell Akira that he's become quite...distracted. Way more than usual. Because of a certain crimeboy. Hibiki can only imagine what would happen if they began living together. ]
[ It's difficult not to notice that at this point, and as much as Hibiki would like to explain, but...is it really a good idea to tell him that he comes from a family of assassins?
[ it's true, though. there's no need to dump out their collective purses right now. not when there's so much else going on and keeping each other company is just so nice and simple. there'll be a time, certainly, when it matters, when it's important, but right now is clearly not that time. ]
no subject
That's fine.
[ it'd be cute to see him wearing his clothes. ]
It's not like I don't see you a lot.
no subject
I'd like to borrow your coat.
[ He's being shamelessly specific here about his preferences, oops. ]
no subject
Sure. You were the one that fixed it, anyway.
[ fantasy fodder, clearly. ]
no subject
[ He should've said that earlier, probably. ]
Anything will do, I'm not picky.
[ Hasn't he just asked for his coat, though... ]
no subject
Ah, so you aren't going to wear this under my coat? I'm disappointed.
[ AKIRA. ]
no subject
[ Why is the coat at fault here. ]

[ stay here forever? hadn't he already offered that -
there's bubbling of laughter and he fights it off with a well-timed cough. ]
Don't worry, I'll give you enough clothes to wear back. It's fine.

About that other thing... [ Of course he's not stating which. Of course. ] I'm not saying no, it's just...
[ The moving in thing. ]
no subject
though, all things considered, he probably should have been able to put two and two together. ]
Just what?
[ he can play along. maybe the answer will shed light on what they're actually talking about. ]

You don't even know me all that well.
[ Harsh. ]
no subject
Ah... that's. [ he's trying to find the right words. ]
That makes sense, yeah.
[ that it's probably not a good idea. he just thinks it's rooted in other reasoning: there's been a lot going on with the palai. ]
I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. [ he just figured it would be more convenient, really. ]
no subject
[ It might be unfair to do so after being so rough with him, but it doesn't stop Hibiki from nuzzling into the other boy. ]
I'm such a mess because of you.
no subject
[ please explain, because he's slightly worried again, his hand resting comfortably between hibiki's shoulder blades. ]
no subject
While wearing a cat onesie, of all things. ]
I like you.
no subject
...And that makes you a mess?
[ he's not computing this. there is a small laugh that escapes him, sounding partially amused. ]
Ah... I am a delinquent, so maybe that's it.
no subject
That said, Akira's not wearing any ridiculous outfits, so perhaps it could be a chance to ask him about the whole delinquent thing, however...
No, there's no way in Aimintas or any other world they're having a serious conversation when he's looking like this. ]
It's not your fault, I promise. I'll tell you everything one day, okay?

Don't worry about it.
