Hey, this is Akira Kurusu and I'm not available right now. Leave a message and I'll get back to it as soon as I can.

[Goro half-snorts lightly at the whining tone, tucking a brief smile away. Pizza with wings... Then, this next one's a square, do something fun with that.]

I don't know exactly what happened, but... they're being called murderers. I wonder if one of their "changes of heart" went wrong?

[A pause. He shakes his head, sighing.]

Or maybe the other me was right all along and they really are dangerous. "Absolute power corrupts absolutely," as I was reminded earlier by Miss Velveteen. [It's clear he doesn't like the idea, though.] Though I... suppose that's settled now, considering what happened to their leader.

[... This is the part that gives him more grief, honestly, he's fucking Confused about the murderer part but. There's a reason he's got insomnia tonight and it's got a clickbait title.]

[Oh, kind of like from that movie... Goro stares at it for a moment, the comforting words more like a chilly wind despite the summer's warmth. He hesitates, then carefully leans against Akira, ready to move away if it's the least bit unwelcome. It's just something grounding he needs, considering what came with the news.]

He was captured.

[Bile burns in his throat at the apparent passion the other him had at hunting down the other thieves, casting them as much of criminals as anyone else; I don't care if they come after me, so boldly declared, for the victims of their evil deeds, and for their families--]

And died in custody, it'd seem, by his own hand. [What was that person like? Was he really so prideful as the other him thought, to rather die than be dishonored by capture?] It caused quite a stir, though... the other me seemed level-headed.

[A little dizzy, a little caught up in his own world, something like that. Undesired, wanting only to be needed and relied on, did all he could to achieve that-- and was given some... sort of gift from the gods, though Goro doesn't quite understand that part of the vision at all.

... Just how did he dispose of those in his way?]


I suppose that's what experience in the fields gets you, [though he's oddly quiet and distant.] Though I don't know how I feel about him. Me.

[He almost -- almost -- jerks away in surprise of the returned weight, but manages not to; these words are more of a comfort, paired with Akira's warmth and weight, and he closes his eyes with a soft sigh.]

And to think I was jealous of him once upon a time.

[God, no, not anymore. He shakes his head.]

Thank you. [...] So what sort of visions have you been getting? I do hope they're more pleasant than my own.

You think you're weird? [...] Perhaps it's telling of myself that I don't consider you particularly odd.

[He's weird too, after all. Liz is weird. Silver can be kind of startling too, Ann is a little awkward at times, the vast majority of the people he's met on Retrospec's network are strange -- some more than others -- but to Goro, at least, Akira isn't weird.]

Those are odd dreams, though dreams themselves are always odd... Have you tries looking them up in a dream dictionary?

[... because goro absolutely indulges in that, why wouldn't he, they're fun and mean about as much to one's psyche as freud]

[He snorts at the tease, returning the elbowing and moving his weight off of Akira. The guy'd heard his #salt about Dusk, it... doesn't bother him as much as it would coming from someone else (because he trusts Akira not to be mean, he seemed like he got that bit out earlier).]

Are you a deviant? Is it dangerous for me to be alone with you?
twostringsonebow: (74 hey if i smile with my teeth)

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-03 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[> Akira's looking rather pensive... I should choose my words carefully.]

No more than I am.

[which means?]

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-04 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, god, that's getting an immediate if small shiver, and Goro's face is certainly lightly pink. He really likes that mischievous look a little too much; it kind of inspires something in him right back and his smile curls more, narrowing his eyes lightly as he trails a finger down Akira's jaw.

God, hopefully he doesn't get in over his head here.]


Deviant is a little too far for either of us, but it's not as if I'm without temptation. If there was ever a place... ever a time to try something new... then right now wouldn't be too bad, would it?

[... so much for not getting ahead of himself. he's gonna wanna die in a few.]
twostringsonebow: (49 and sadness from which)

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-04 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Ah. Well, it was nice while it lasted, his short lived inspiration; despite his embarrassment he can't find it in him to move, transfixed by his crush and the lips searing his skin.]

... Something I shouldn't ask you for. [His throat's dry, but he still speaks, curling his fingers tighter against Akira's with a hard swallow.] It's not racy or risque, nothing like that, but I still shouldn't.

[It'd definitely make things weird, as nice as it'd be in the moment. Or maybe it wouldn't be nice.]
twostringsonebow: (19 i'm a shape shifter)

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-04 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Shut up, [but it's more like an exasperated whine, rubbing his hand lightly.] I was just thinking that we have a ride back and I didn't want to ask you for anything that'd make it weird.

[Like it's kind of not already?? He's also entirely inexperienced in romantic notions, more used to... not having the chance in the first place.]

Besides. I'd rather you tease me about a lack of confidence than my feelings.
twostringsonebow: (51 let it ring out)

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-04 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Mean.

[... They should probably head back though. But once again, Akira is against him and Goro is content. Sleeping on the beach could probably be safer. Maybe.]

I don't want to. [Leave.] It feels nice out here. [With Akira.] But I do feel guilty about keeping you so late, as fun as you may find it.

[He can probably bother someone else for nighttime walks if he needs. Though hopefully Silver and Liz are heavy sleepers and he can just go alone.]

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-04 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Goro shakes his head at the allusion, taking Akira's hand and very obviously contemplating dragging him back down.

He decides he's indulged in enough today and stands with the help, brushing himself off.]


You can rest your eyes on the way back, princess. [Just like before.] I'll avoid any sudden swerves this time.
twostringsonebow: (54 exposing all the lies)

[personal profile] twostringsonebow 2017-08-05 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It sounds more like I'm going to be the passenger with that line.

[Which would be too nice and he wouldn't allow it, fixing Akira's seat for a moment and getting on himself. Let's get a-going Akira-hime.]
