[contrarily]

Oh... um...

( she squints, thoughtful. right... she does have some vague, fake memories of her life here — her outings with izumi, and with chiaki, and... going home to...

... huh? )

Weird... ( eyes narrowed, she tries to recall the details, but... she's also aware that it's always been just her and the hag, nobody else. no fake family could wipe that particular stain away. ) Pff... haha! Wonder how I'd turn out, if I really had a family like that! Probably boring as hell.

[adsum]

He keeps his cards close. The others are impressionable. Look how much you've affected them already.

[ I originally mistyped infected and you know that's true too ]

[adsum]

Marri— oh.

[ hm

He shifts a little uncomfortably, but doesn't let go. ]

...All it means is we're running away. [ to get married... ] It doesn't have to happen in the woods.

[bloodmetries]

[ Hmmmmmmm ]

I'm not a rabid dog, I know how to behave.

[adsum]

What, if you had a cute little brother and sister? I think you'd be more...

[ hmm ]

I think you would have liked it.

[adsum]

She doesn't need to have the heart for it. What if what happened to you had happened to her instead? You weren't singled out because you had the capacity.

[ It was, all in all, bad luck. ]

[adsum]

[ I know somebody who would love those nails and that tooth. ]

It sure has. What, um. [ he couldn't have wiped off the hair before coming inside, could he? ] What brings you here?

[commences]

( forget the switchblade, counselor has his entire attention. )

...In what ways have I affected them, what do you see?

( one keeps his cards close, the other impressionable. komaeda's watched the people around him, that's why he did what he had to do... but counselor is a third party, his eyes watched komaeda and everyone else. so what does he see?

you're right, komaeda a disease. )

[adsum]

...I know. [ he knows how to, but will he... ] It was Kawai-san.

[ Unlike Stephanie, Akki is a snitch. But it should be okay? Akira is his ???something??? he won't hurt Rika, right? ]

[contrarily]

... ha.

( kind of a dumb thought, really. considering how mean she was... and still is to people, a younger sibling wouldn't last very long around her. )

I think it's for the best I was a single child in both cases. At least now I can go and call Ran-tan onii-chan without feeling weird about it, and watch him get all flustered.

[bloodmetries]

[ Akira is his SOMETHING... ]

Alright. Got it. [ He's probably heard the name once or twice in passing -- when he wasn't "awake", but now he stores it as something to remember.

That said, that fly lands on the wall next to them and Akira turns his head just slightly before slamming his fist into it. The damn thing is dead, and he looks just as unhinged as usual. ]

She small?

[commences]

...So you want to elope. ( to get married... ) ...

( komaeda's this close to correcting him, but he'll act like he doesn't know what rokkun's talking about. )

Do you want to run away with your partner in crime that bad... have we ran away before?

( maybe he should ask that, maybe rokkun has memories or something it... maybe that's why his suggestion to get away is eloping... )

[adsum]

[ ...he's interested. Even if he claims to not understand or know how to navigate relationships with people, he's invested anyways and that's what matters. ]

I see people who keep you in their thoughts. Your actions, your words, your hope... Even if somebody does not understand or agree, the thought is planted there: you act as a benchmark, a guide, no matter whether people gravitate towards or away. Some are stronger for it, some are weaker. You have no choice but to keep being you, and you will be made to linger long after you are gone.

[mermaidcursed]

Okaayyyy.... Stupid math being hard and boring and long-

( and thus... she wanders back to her desk. i'm coming for you again as soon as i find the original recipe i was referencing for nene's antics for accuracy purposes- )

[commences]

( closes eyes... they have to beg for it, these are quality molars and nails. )

I wanted to discuss the school's living arrangements with you, I have a feeling this might be our lucky day!

( a little laugh... wheeze... whatever the fuck he be doing. )

[adsum]

Oh! You brother-zoned him.

[ Oh okay. Amami can live now. ]

[contrarily]

Oh, no. I think he's got a kink for it.

( she hums, thoughtful. )

I dunno why, though. He never told me anything about his family...

[adsum]

[ Never mind, Amami's back on his shit list ]

Maybe don't indulge in his kinks...

[adsum]

[ his... something...

But oh, that's gross, Akki digs in his pockets for a handkerchief so Akira can wipe his hands on it and then... throw it away, probably, because once bug guts has touched something there's no saving it ]

Short, dyed blond hair... she probably didn't mean anything by it, I think, maybe.

[bloodmetries]

[ Wipe it off for him, Akki... ]

Now that I've got you cornered the words just start pourin' out, don't they?

[ He quirks a brow, lips hinting at a grin before they return to a fine line. ]

... Fujioka? [ He says a name that feels familiar on his tongue, watching for a response. Purposely leaving it as a question, like he is needing to ask him something... and maybe he does. ]

[contrarily]

( ??? ok mr. dry humps komaeda in public... the moment she learns about this is the moment he's getting thrown into the bad end world. forever. )

Oh, it's fine, Ran-tan's nice, so it's okay!! Did you give him his rock yet?

[adsum]

I hope we can go over cuil theory again soon...

[ One day they'll get that lesson down... but yes, eight torturous hours of class and then! they're free!! and would believe anything Nene says about how to make gummies because in their mind the process is like making jello from powder except ??? you boil the water long enough that most it evaporates or something. ]

[adsum]

Not successfully. Obviously, because we're still together.

[ ... ]

Sort of.

[commences]

Hm...

( he's thinking, his hands tighten to keep rokkun in place so he can survive off his shadow shade. )

I want to hear about our sort of-eloping... was it in the woods?

( "why the woods," he's been thinking. )

[moderating]

[ Nanami lays her hand back at her side. Placing weight onto it. While rising her other hand to cup along the side of his head. She thumbs a few strands of his hair idly, looking down upon him with the same neutral look.

It takes a little bit, before she speaks again. Allowing for the silence of the air to settle between them. The off sound of people bustling about in the distance filters past the curtains like white noise but no one knows they are there. Her voice is quite, but earnest, ]

Are you ready for the exams...?
