[YEAH BRITT, THANK FOR HURTING ME LIKE THAT!!]

[here is Akechi though, with a freshly scarred face, long before Sousei totally messes it up with bruises to try and make the scars less noticeable. they're smart]


Arellano, correct? [DOUBLE NAMES?? he uses the last one only just because he's Japanese and doesn't know better. he smiles, despite the new injuries, and bends down to pick up the stick. provided Aurum hasn't done so just yet] Are you considering making a wish?

[it is, and he does give her a grateful look as he tosses the stick a good ways away. got fetch!!]

I suppose it's obvious, isn't it? [a sigh] I did. I'd be extremely careful, if I were you.

[it sure was. how mysterious!!]

It's a bit personal, but. . . I suppose talking about it is my punishment for being too presumptuous?

[he sounds so resigned]

BACK TO TACKLE MY INBOX WITH A VENGEANCE

[being the academic he is, Akechi has to clarify]

Which sect of mythology? [his tone is almost wry, purposefully so, as though he's making a joke] But I suppose many different myths tell tales of someone's ambition being their ultimate downfall.

[ah. he blinks at her, and then forces a chuckle]

I see. . . the comparison is that obvious. [brushes his bangs from his forehead and nods] Metaphorically speaking, it seems I did.

but then britt returned, with even more vengeance

[personal profile] doublecrows 2018-06-14 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
It's true. I found at least one other person who suffered a similar injury at the hands of the well.

[drooping a little, sheepish and guilty]

It seems none of us exercised enough caution. A thought we should keep in mind should we choose to utilize the well's gifts again.

britt is strong

[personal profile] doublecrows 2018-06-15 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know.

[yes. the answer is yes]

I wished for the one thing I wanted most, and received these scars instead. There might not be anything else that well can give to me.

SCARY DRIVING WOULD FLOOR EVEN THE MANLIEST OF MEN. . .

[personal profile] doublecrows 2018-06-16 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
. . . it does, yes.

[he admits with a purposefully wan smile]

Perhaps that is what I should have wished for instead. It would've been far more useful, in the long run. Or-- if not something to take the war apart, then a hint on how to end it.

[a chuckle]

I suppose you're right. They are extremely personal. And not every personal desire is something that benefits the good of the whole.

[. . . . . . . . . what]

[the fuck]

[um]


Are you here to kill me. . .

[please free him]

[. . . he supposes, out of anyone here, she deserves answers the most. considering he purposefully left her hair at the scene of the crime]

If you have a question, just ask it. At this point, I don't care.

[oh, wow. there's hesitation as Akechi tries to figure out how to answer this]

I don't know.

[bad, bad answer]

I don't kill people for fun or because I'm cruel, Reyna-san.

[he isn't a sadist. he's an assassin. there's a difference]
