Just open the door.

[sengokus]

Okay, okay.

[he'll open the door! there's no flucking here. but maybe endorsi is attaching herself to somebody else -

mineo got the loft though, so he's headed up up and up the stairs. just not as quickly as he usually would]

[dotcom]

[ he follows up after him.

admittedly, he seems to be watching mineo more closely than he normally would, but also it would be hard to tell because he is... behind him. ]

[sengokus]

[he is definitely behind him - but at least mineo isn't a total slob. the loft is reasonably clean even though he didn't make his bed today on account of.... tired. but he'll remove his eyepatch (why did he put it back on) and rub at his eye before going to sit on the couch]

But seriously, are you doing okay? How'd the hacking go?

[dotcom]

It just gave me some information on Wrath and Despair. Specifically, they read like someone else was keeping files on them. It said Wrath is undead, and is considered volatile and should be handled with caution. Despair is... unsundered? I don't know what that means. But that they're indifferent, and it's okay to proceed.

The computer shut off after that.

[sengokus]

Huh.... I'll talk to Wrath-san about it again - they didn't seem to know anything about the eye that Vira-san and Grace-san saw when I asked about it. But it seemed like the MRI machine... all the mold inside it was pink too.

[he probably gave a more delirious explanation right after but - ]

I figured it was the most obvious thing to investigate so I didn't really want to just leave it - but when I was inside, where the pink stuff got on me kinda burned, but it didn't last. And my head started spinning, like it was on overdrive but not in a way I could focus.

I don't know if that's related to the weird pulsating image of a brain tumor I saw on the screen beforehand.

[dotcom]

Huh... oh, one more thing.

[ he'll walk over and reach over to grab mineo's cheek and pull on it.

not as hard as he would normally, since mineo did get fucked over by the mri machine, but enough for it to sting a bit. ]

[sengokus]

[GHK]

Ow ow ow - why....!! No more punishment, I've had enough this week!

[dotcom]

You absolute moron. What if it melted whatever is left of your brain? You don't have enough to spare already!

[ he sounds actually mad about it. ]

If you didn't already get fucked up over it, I'd give you a punishment.

[sengokus]

[NOOOOOOO]

Wh - I didn't think I'd get trapped in it or anything...!! But it was the most obvious thing, how can I not look into it?!

[mineo genuinely does not know enough about machines or science to be afraid of an MRI]

Could it have actually done that...?

[dotcom]

The point is that we didn't know what would happen, stupid! Idiot!

[ he takes a step back. ]

I'll vote for you.

[sengokus]

Don't be that mad at me...!! That's not enough reason to vote for me, I'm already feeling off this whole week!

[HE DOESN'T WANT TO DIE AGAIN]

[dotcom]

Then don't do things that will piss me off.

[sengokus]

[he's just grumbling at that - but he looks away because he knows that he's probably in the wrong here]

I'm sturdy, it's fine... I'm used to being in danger.

You don't have to be so pissed about it...

[though it's. gradually clicking why takeru might be mad? but it feels presumptuous to think he might've been worried...?]

[dotcom]

Being used to danger doesn't mean you should actively seek it out.

[ but he'll go to sit down on the couch that's here. ]

[sengokus]

I was looking for answers and I sort of accepted whatever came with that. It's all I'm really good for here, you know?

[throwing himself headfirst into things. but he'll at least frown a little bit more and pause when takeru goes to sit with him.

he reaches out to knock his knuckles lightly against his shoulder]

... sorry.

[dotcom]

It would just be inconvenient to me if I lost my pack mule over something that preventable.

[ they would have to go and fuckin explain to everyone what happened? horrible. ]

[sengokus]

[he just rolls his eyes at that before snorting and taking a sip out of the water bottle]

Nah. I'm way harder to get rid of than that.

[they already tried once and here he is!]

... I'll try to be more careful next time, Takeru.

[dotcom]

Fine. Well, if that's all.

[ he gets up

he is completely aware that's not all that mineo wanted but takeru is now going to attempt to escape before he remembers the rest of he initial text. ]

[sengokus]

[oh my god he's just catching his wrist]

Let me get this over with! Everyone else already knows what I think about them!

[dotcom]

Ugh.

[ UGGGHHHHhhhh ]

[sengokus]

I don't like it either but I don't wanna risk whatever happens if I don't do it!

And the only horrible thing I've done here is let you bite me and that's even worse to tell someone!!

[THEY LITERALLY TALKED ABOUT HOW AWFUL IT'D BE]

[dotcom]

I'd strangle you with your own tie.

[ so yeah that's a bad option. ]

Just get it over with.

[sengokus]

Can you just stop with my neck?!

[IT'S GETTING ALARMING

but he tugs on takeru's hand. sit back down on the couch. he needs to mentally prepare for this too. he hates it.]

[dotcom]

[ mineo's new fear for his neck is so real

but after a few seconds of deliberation, he'll sit. this is uncomfortable. ]
